Chapter 208 The Trap

How could Sean be at the Steward residence? What did he want with Irene? Sean never did anything without a payoff. There was no way he'd shown up out of kindness. If he was there, it was a sign of trouble. Irene was growing older, and her health had become fragile. She couldn't handle any shock. Annie didn't even want to imagine what Sean might say to Irene. "You wouldn't dare!" Annie snapped. A low chuckle came through the line. "Why wouldn't I? I just want to catch up with her. Why are you so nervous?" "Sean, what do you want?" "If you don't want me going inside, that's fine," Sean said, his voice edged with a quiet threat. "Come over here. Let's talk face to face." He hung up before she could respond. Annie stared at her phone, shaking with rage. Her fingertips had gone cold. She didn't have time to think. She grabbed her bag and rushed out of her office. Nothing else mattered. All Annie could think about was that she couldn't let Sean see Irene—under any circumstances.
