Isaac stared fixedly at Irene for two seconds before turning to leave without a word.Stan shot her a look too, thinking that she really did not know what was good for her.Even Irene was taken aback.Was she being too harsh?She gave chase without thinking, since she did not want to fight with Isaac, only to run into Stephen."Irene? Have you finished the surgical plan?"Irene was left in a dilemma, just as Stephen continued, "The patient has consented to the surgery. Call admin to see if they have a free OR."Irene watched as Isaac strode off in the distance, and decided to leave an explanation for when she got home."Alright, I'll ask," she said with a nod. It just so happened that there was an unoccupied operating room, and Stephen quickly arranged for Harvey's mother to be sent there.As Irene arrived, Harvey stopped her. "Please save her.""You can count on Dr. Carr," Irene replied.She certainly did, especially with him presiding over the surgery.That was when sh

Ricky smiled, and he actually put his arm around Lulu's.Irene frowned as she watched—he never did that with her before!Feeling like he was getting overly enthusiastic, she joked nonetheless, "Ricky, did you know that Lulu has a boyfriend?""Come on, Irene—he's just a younger brother to me," Lulu said as she glanced at Ricky sideways.Irene said nothing—it was just a reminder anyway, so that Ricky would not get any ideas.Still, Ricky pursed his lips in turn. "They are having a fight, aren't there? Since they might not make up, and it's common for the ladies to hook up with healthy young men like me, I'm open to any offers, Lulu.""Not interested in puppies." Lulu pulled her arm out of his and walked over to Irene.Still, they heeded to a diner together, though Ricky was persistently trying to start conversations with Lulu.Eventually, Irene could not stand it and asked, "Not afraid of Lulu already, Ricky?" Ricky shrugged. "I'm an adult. What should I be afraid of?"Lulu po

Irene could hear Lindsay, but she did not turn around or respond.However, Lindsay knew that her secret was out and that Irene knew who she was, so she simply gave up on pretending. "I know it's you, Irene Spencer—I've been careless. I should have recognized your voice, but I only caught on when I saw you checking my underarm." Irene finally turned around just then, and asked, "You know me?""There's no need to hide now. We both know what's going on. Don't you think we should talk?"Irene stared at Whitney, suddenly unsure what she was up to. "What do you want?""I just wanted to talk, but if you don't want to, fine." Whitney turned and started to leave, but Irene stopped her, and they headed to the staircase."I never expected that it'd be you who found out first," Whitney said as she stared at Irene. "Isaac Jefferson tried to kill me because of you. Don't you think I deserve to hold a grudge?""You deserved it. Do you still not understand what you've done? You are the reas

Taking Irene's silence as approval, Harvey followed her to the hospital chief's office.Even from a distance, they could hear Chad shouting and breaking various objects."Call Irene Spencer here now!" he was yelling madly.Harvey sneaked a glance at Irene to see no expression on her face at all, leaving him speechless and thinking that she was genuinely ice-cold.It was rare for someone to retain such composure in the face of potential danger, and Harvey's admiration for her only grew.The door to the chief's office was half-closed, and Irene quietly opened it. "Chief…""Irene Spencer!" Chad lunged toward her in a frenzy, but Harvey stood in his way. "Talk if you want, but don't resort to violence—any man who lays a finger on a woman is no man at all.""Who are you?!" Chad snarled at him, his eyes red. "Mind your business! She's the reason I lost my child! Why shouldn't I kill her right now?!" "That has nothing to do with me," Irene said, leveling Chad a cool look. "You ca

Irene coolly said, "Stop it—""Actually, he's right. I am in love with you, but Isaac beat me to the promised land," Harvey said with much ambiguity. Irene shot him a glare, "Har har, very funny. I'm being threatened with a lawsuit here, and might lose my job here. I can't have that, not when I upset Isaac over—"She stopped right then, realizing that she had spoken too much.Even so, Ricky quickly asked, "What? How did you upset Isaac?"Harvey's ears had pricked up as well, since he was eager to find out too. Irene grumbled, "Stop being a busybody and start thinking what to do about Whitney Cox. Oh, wait—what did you want to talk to me about?""Lulu is leaving," Ricky said. "I was thinking that you should talk her out of it."Irene, however, knew about Lulu's situation and would not do so lightly. "I need to know what's happening first." "Okay," Ricky replied. "I still hope you'd convince her to stay, though."Irene was left staring at him for a while at that, wondering w
