Chapter 933
Isaac asked in confusion, "Tell what?’ "Didn't you see anything since you were brought here?” Marie asked.
Isaac shook his head. "No. Nothing."
"Really?" Marie pressed on.
"No," Isaac said assuredly. "Nothing at all."
Marie nodded and walked up to help him walk. "You don't look like a bad man. Zidonian, right?"
Isaac nodded. "Yes."
Helping him back to his room, she told him, "Get some rest.”
As Marie and Thomas got in bed that night, she said, "He said he saw nothing."
"Do you think he'd admit it if he did?" Thomas asked in return.
"But he's Zidonian," Marie argued. "He probably won't-"
"They might have sent a Zidonian to find us so that we'd let down our guard."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThomas was certainly paranoid, and even Marie had a hard time understanding him. "If you believe that, we
should've left him to die and save ourselves the trouble!"
"I would've—if he wasn't blind," Thomas replied.
The vineyard was actually a front, and the truth was that they were rearing a certain species of animal illegally,
which had body parts that could be sold for good value.
However, Thomas and Marie were not actually criminals, but they were forced to stay here because of their son's
debt.
It was either their compliance or their son's life, although they would be killed as well if news of this place leaked
out.
That was why they were worried that Isaac was sent to investigate them and refused to let him leave.
Thankfully, his legs and eyes were hurt-they would not try to save him if he could see, and might even kill him.
Meanwhile, Isaac could not sleep at all.
All he thought was that they were living in a weird place, and there was no way he would have known that he had
actually stumbled on an illegal farm!
After days of toiling, Irene finally gave in to exhaustion and slept as if she was in a coma.
Tommy was sleeping tamely in her arms, fiddling with her long hair one moment and hooking his finger with hers
the next.
It was boring, but he was happy since he was in his mother's arms.
He certainly missed staying with her.
Meanwhile, Pierre had found several tutors, but Eagle stopped him when he came upstairs to talk to Irene.
"She's asleep," Eagle said.
"The tutors are here," Pierre explained. "I've arranged for her to pick one."
"That would still have to wait until she wakes up," Eagle insisted.
Pierre hesitated for a moment and said, "Alright. I'll ask them to wait."
Sheryl just happened to arrive after feeding the baby and asked, "Is she not up yet?"
"No," Eagle replied. "She must have been left exhausted lately."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSheryl sighed, but she left with the baby in her arms, heading to the courtyard for a walk.
It was vast, and Sheryl must also admit the air here was better than Zidonia's.
While it was not to say the air in their homeland was terrible, most areas were densely populated and any
unoccupied land was developing rapidly.
Meanwhile, Eagle remained outside Irene's room until she woke up.
She slept soundly because she was tired, but it was not for long because she was still uneasy.
That was always the case when one's heart was troubled.
She checked her phone the instant she woke up, but there was no notification, let alone any missed calls from Stan.
But just as she scowled. Tommy snuggled against her. "Mommy.'
Irene picked him up and put him on his lap, petting his head. "Does it still hurt?"
Tommy shook his head-in fact, he almost forgot that he fell.
Irene then picked him up, saying, "Okay! Let's check on your baby brother now."
Stepping outside and seeing Eagle standing there, she asked, "Where's my baby?"
"Your mother took him outside," he replied.
Irene was just about to leave when Eagle stopped her. "Ma'am?"
