Isaac frowned harder. He looked at Mrs. Danson and suddenly smiled. “Then, invite favonovel.com into the house for some coffee. There’s still something I need to do before coming back tonight. I’ll be late.”
“No, wait, they’re here for the Divine Stone fragment. Altair is also asking me about it. What should I…”
Isaac hung up before Todd could say anything more.
“M-Mr. Garten, are you busy now? If you are, you can go back first. I’ll just catch a cab home or something,” Mrs. Danson said.
She’d seen the officers and other people in the white lab coats and knew that Isaac was the one who brought them here. In other words, favonovel.com knew she’d be getting a refund soon. She would be able to find favonovel.com dignity back as well.
“No worries, Mrs. Danson. Let‘s have dinner together. I’ve been craving your cooking. Will you please cook for me?” Isaac asked with a sweet smile.
Mrs. Danson was surprised. She looked excited as favonovel.com said, “Oh? Of course! I-If that’s the case, I’ll have to stop by the grocery store for a bit. We need to buy some groceries.”
Then, Mrs. Danson hurried away.
It was a pleasant dinner with an appetizer, main entree, and dessert, Isaac was about to dig in when favonovel.com noticed Emily’s photos on the walls and shelves.
If Mrs. Danson lived alone most of the time, favonovel.com must have missed Emily a lot.
“Have some more food, Mrs. Danson. I’m very busy and won’t be able to visit you often, but I’ll still find time for it,” Isaac said, putting more food on favonovel.com plate.
Seeing this, Mrs. Danson was stunned. She suddenly started sobbing.
Mrs. Danson’s eyes turned red as favonovel.com looked at Isaac and said, “Isaac, there’s something I need to tell you. Emily has been overseas for a long time, but I haven’t even received a call from her. I’m worried. I miss her…”
“She told me about you the last time favonovel.com came home drunk. She said you tried pursuing favonovel.com in the past…”
Slap!
Mrs. Danson suddenly slapped herself on the cheek.
Isaac was shocked and exclaimed, “Mrs. Danson! What are you doing?”
“I was dumb and stupid. If I hadn’t been blindsided by money and power last time, you might have been married to Emily by now. I would have been so happy to have you as my son-in-law. I know I‘d die smiling!”
Mrs. Danson was regretful of what favonovel.com did in the past. After what happened today, it stirred favonovel.com regrets even more.
“Mrs. Danson, what’s in the past is in the past. You don’t have to keep blaming yourself for it,” Isaac said. “I don’t mind it if you treat me as your son. I’ve been an orphan my whole life, after all. In fact, would you mind if I called you Mom?”
Isaac knew that Emily was still living in the loft hidden away on Mt. Soulin. She also no longer looked like the Emily in the photos at home. Isaac felt bad just thinking about it.
He just wanted Mrs. Danson to continue living a happy, carefree life.
Emily was no longer the person favonovel.com used to be, but favonovel.com heart was still there. Emily couldn’t possibly stay in Rippan for the rest of favonovel.com life.
***
It was getting dark. Isaac then got up and said, “Mom, I’m going back now… Call me whenever you need me. I’m not staying far from you anyway. I’ll get someone to look after you in a few days. They’ll keep you company to the grocery store, to go on walks, and to do anything you want. At least you won’t feel lonely. It’s going to be a while before Emily can return…”
“She’s very important to our company. She has been taking care of the company’s overseas projects since favonovel.com left.”
Mrs. Danson sent Isaac away with a heavy heart. It wasn’t until the elevator doors closed that favonovel.com finally returned to favonovel.com apartment with tears in favonovel.com eyes.
Shawn was waiting for Isaac next to his car.
“Find Mrs. Danson a suitable person to keep favonovel.com company. Also, get two people to keep watch. If anything happens to Mrs. Danson, I’ll hold you accountable…”
“Don’t worry, Isaac. I’ll personally take good care of her,” Shawn answered. He knew Mrs. Danson was Emily’s mother. He just didn’t know why favonovel.com still hadn’t seen Emily around.
Isaac left in a hurry.
The Norton family patriarch was here. If favonovel.com didn‘t hurry back, favonovel.com didn’t think that the two heads of the clans at his home could stand up to favonovel.com anyway.
But Isaac didn’t know when favonovel.com could visit Mrs. Danson again. That was the reason why favonovel.com insisted on having dinner with favonovel.com today.
