MY GORGEOUS WIFE IS AN EX-CONVICT

Part 75 Continue

Lewis wanted to repent before isaac had a chance to do anything more damaging to the Mayer family.
But he didn’t get the opportunity to meet him.

He placed multiple calls to isaac's assistant nathan.But that went nowhere.

It didn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that isaac landford was dodging him. But lewis couldn’t let it go.
He had to protect his family.

In a bold move that he acknowledged could blow up in his face, he went to claire’s apartment, and stood by the entrance.

When lewis noticed a Bentley parked not far away from the property and a figure getting out of the car, he hurriedly got out of his Ferrari to approach the man.

“Mr. Landford the incident that happened before was because my sister did not have any sense of propriety. But I have compensated Miss Gray and will make further reparations. Please show your moral superiority by being merciful and letting the Mayers Family be lewis pleaded.

“Let the Mayer's Family be? Isaac snorted lightly.

“If you have any conditions, please list them. I will accept any request that I am capable of fulfilling.”

Isaac’s dark eyes were cold and there was none of the mercy that lewis had called upon. Lewis blood seemed to congeal in his veins.

“Come to think of it, I owe you a favor,” isaac said suddenly.

“A favor? Lewis was stunned. And wary. “When would you, Mr. Landford, have a need for a favor?” He laughed nervously. “But of course, whatever you might need.”

“How about this? I’ll let the Mayer's Family off the hook, as long as sandra does not attend your engagement dinner isaac said calmly.

Lewis waited a few seconds to see what else isaac landford would require. “Is that all?”

Isaac only stared at him.
Lewis let out a sigh of relief. Keeping sandra away? That wasn’t such a big deal. Sure, there would be a lot of ruffled feathers both with his parents and sister, but ultimately, even if sandra wasn’t there, they could all save face.

“Thank you, Mr. Landford” lewis said hurriedly. “I’ll see to it.”

“Don’t thank me. I should be the one thanking you instead.isaac  placed a hand on lewis shoulder, slowly tilting his body to be within earshot and speaking in a low voice that only the two of them could hear. “I should thank you for breaking up with claire so thoroughly back then. If you hadn’t broken up with her, I’m afraid I would have had to put more effort into it now.”

Isaac’s statement was relayed gently, as if he was taking part in an appreciative chat between friends.

Isaac landford strolled away after that. His hands in his pockets and not care in the world.

Lewis stood rooted to the spot.

What had just happened? And what did isaac mean?

If I hadn’t broken up with claire in the first place, then would! have been isaac’s current target?

What isaac had said sounded less like something to be thankful for and more like a threat.

Meanwhile sandra was in a high-end club waiting for her friends to come and distract her from her boredom. She still couldn’t believe her brother could be such an asshole as to pin the bank rejecting the loans on her. As if offending Claire Gray meant anything?

Claire had no contacts. No friends of prestige.

Hell, her own family had nothing to do with her, if the gossip was to be believed.

How could it be possible that that road sweeper claire would have any connections with the bank and be able to persuade them not to loan money to the mayer Family? That was ridiculous!

Just as she was pondering it, the private room door was pushed open. However, the people who entered were not the friends that she had been waiting for but a group of strange men.

“Who… are you? Sandra asked carefully.

They closed the door behind them, and one of the large men blocked it.

She felt a trickle of terror and she reached for her phone, intending to call someone, maybe the police. Actually things were happening so quickly, she wasn’t really thinking so clearly.

“What do you want?” she asked, keeping the panic at bay.

Maybe these were new bouncers.

The leader walked toward sandra and calmly said, “Miss Mayer's, begging your pardon. Can you please confirm that the person in the video is you?”

As he spoke, he played a video on his phone. It was the surveillance video of  sandra  intentionally extending her leg to trip claire.

Sandra was suddenly taken aback. She’d paid an obscene amount of money to get those surveillance tapes wiped clean.

How the hell did these people get a hold of them?

“What…what do you want? Are you trying to blackmail me with this? Let me tell you something, I’m Sandra Mayer' s! If you dare to blackmail me, the Mayer's Family will not let your get away with it! You’d better delete the video now…”

The man smiled wickedly. “I’ll take that as confirmation. Thank you…” Then he stepped toward her.

Sandra had barely finished her threats when the stranger grabbed her arm. He held her in place and with his other hand with the phone, he snapped a photo of her.

“Delete that, this instant! Sandra screamed.

But the big man ignored her. He turned to the men behind him. “Break her right leg. In the video, she stuck out her right leg.”

“What… what does that mean?!”

Sandra was frightened. She looked for a way out, but there was none, and the men were closing in.

A moment later, an anguished wail rang out in the private room…

When claire woke up the next day, her fever had gone down.

Isaac said, “Ah, there you are. Luckily the fever has settled. If not, I’d have to carry you down to the hospital today.”

“I… had a fever last night?”claire mumbled.

“Yes, you had a fever and you said plenty of things in your fevered state,” he replied.

Oh, that didn’t sound good. She felt a flush creeping up her face that had nothing to do with being ill. “What… what did I say?” She really hoped she didn’t say anything inappropriate or anything that she shouldn’t have.

“You said that you’d be more obedient, be a good baby, and that you wanted me to stay by your side,” he said with a rare hint of playfulness in his gaze.

It took her a second to process what he’d said, and then she laughed. She’d obviously been delirious.

“However, Sister, don’t worry. Even if you aren’t a good baby,

I’ll still stay with you isaac replied unhurriedly.
