NovelOnlineChapter 218 Just as Isaac was about to get up, however, Irene moved the cursor and said, “Wait–let’s get prepared
as much as we can before we get started.”
As she read through the dossier on lan’s sugar baby, Isaac watched her from the side, smiling faintly as
he admired her prudence.
And after she was done, Irene said, “This might not be as hard as I thought.”
“How so?” he asked.
“Look here–she’s a dance judge,” Irene pointed out “I happen to know some dancing, and that counts
as a conversation starter, I guess?”
Isaac’s eyes twinkled as he watched her.
Indeed, Irene was quite versatile, having learned the piano, painting, dance, and medicine.
“Wait, I think my friend might know here,” Irene suddenly said as a person came to mind
She took out her phone and took a photo of the woman, while pulling Isaac along “Do you remember
Mark Wickers? From Dorime Pharmaceuticals?”
Isaac followed as he replied, “I do. We’re still partners
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIrene appeared a little excited just then “His wife has a dance academy, and most students there are
involved in competitions. They might be acquainted”
Fortunately, Ms. Lang had not forgotten about Irene.
“Why the sudden visit? It had certainly been a while.”
When Irene arrived at her dance studio, she warmly invited her to her office, complaining a little as she
poured her a glass of water
“That’s true,” Irene explained “But I’ve been busy, and I haven’t forgotten about you”
“Here.” Ms. Lang smiled as she handed her the glass of water.
Irene took it and placed it on the table, and took out the phone to show Ms. Lang. “Do you know this
person?”
Ms. Lang got a good look and asked, “I do. Her name is Robin Lynd.”
Irene became a little thrilled just then. “Are you close?”
Ms. Lang shook her head, “We do meet often at competitions, but never spoke much privately.”
Since Ms. Lang had many students who took part in competitions to be graded, she and Robin were
more
than simple acquaintances now.
“I’d like to meet her. Would you mind introducing us? Also, would you happen to know her interests?”
Irene pressed, wanting to know more right then.
“I heard that she’s very interested in theater,” Ms. Lang replied, staring at Irene just then. “Why’d you
ask?”
Irene smiled. “Just trying to make new friends.”
Still, Ms. Lang was smart enough to tell that it was not that simple-but she would not ask if Irene did not
want to tell her.
“How about dinner together? That’d be easier for introductions.”
Irene, however, thought that it would sound like a deliberate setup-a chance meeting as colleagues
would be more suitable and less suspicious.
Ms. Lang saw that she was concerned, and said, “Or perhaps you could play courier, and deliver the
list of entrants from my academy to the judge committee?”
Irene’s eyes lit up. “That’s good.”
Ms. Lang smiled, picked up the compiled list from her desk, and handed it to her. “I’m counting on you.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKnowing that Ms. Lang was going the extra mile to help her, she said, “I owe you one.”
“Now, now–I still remember that you helped me before,” Ms. Lang said.
“Alright.” Irene grinned. “I will be going now.”
Ms. Lang could see that Irene was in a hurry, and so did not try to stop her. “Okay. Also, the judge
committee will provide certifications after the submission of the list. You don’t have to come back to
deliver it if you’re too busy, though.”
Irene was certainly grateful that Ms. Lang was so thoughtful. “I am busy-let’s have dinner together
some day, my treat.”
“Of course.” Ms. Lang grinned.
With the list of entrants in hand, Irene left the academy.
Isaac was waiting in his car outside, but Irene did not get in.
Standing outside, she told him, “I need to head to the community arts center. I can take a taxi if you’re
busy.”
Isaac said, “Get in. I’ll drive you there.”
He was busy, but he would always have time to drive her around.
Irene did so, and put on her seatbelt….
