Chapter 178

Ricky Spencer did not release her, however. “I know that your son was kidnapped. Is there anything I
can help with?”

“No,” Irene replied. “Just stick to your lessons on managing the company.”

“Tommy is my nephew even if you won’t admit it. I’m actually worried that he has been taken away, and
I just want to help.”

Ricky’s tone was sincere, making it awkward for Irene to brush him off.

“No, I’m serious,” she said patiently. “It’s a great help if you’ll do your best to learn how to manage
Spencer Holdings.”

Something changed in the way he looked at her then. “I will do my best,” he replied.

“Good. I have something urgent to do, so please let go,” Irene said urgently.

Ricky did, and Irene hurried outside when she suddenly stopped and turned toward him again. “Listen–
the reason our father did not pass down Spencer Holdings to you directly was because he knows that
you’re not ready to lead yet. He may have entrusted Spencer Holdings to me for now, but understand
that he loves and cares about you… As for your mother, there’s no question that she made many
mistakes, and I hope you can let go of past grudges and concentrate on studying.”

“What are you saying?” Ricky smiled. “I know that Mom deserves what’s coming to her

“You may be the only one who knows what you are thinking, but don’t take others for idiots.”

With that, Irene hurried off.



Ricky had always been well–behaved around her, even speaking harshly of Samantha White just to
curry her favor.

She was not that naive, however.

She understood that Ricky was trying to bridge the distance between them, most likely to take control
over Spencer Holdings.

That was why she told him all that—the company would eventually be his anyway, and she had no
intention of keeping it from him.

Furthermore, she would rather not have him hold Samantha’s imprisonment against her, and stab her
in the back in retaliation.

She was already exhausted, and certainly did not need another person added to her list of enemies.

She hoped that Ricky would have a change of heart, even if it was for the sake of past sentiments.

Ricky, however, was left spacing out.

Samantha was his mother and the nicest person to him in the whole world. There was no way he would
be unmoved to see her jailed.

Naturally, he was trying to win Irene’s trust by being nice, after which he would take over the

company and try to save his mother.

However, Irene’s words made it clear that she knew what he was up to, and that he must now regard
his stepsister seriously.

She was smart, and it was not surprising that the father trusted her so much.



Putting away those thoughts, he entered the mansion to find Sheryl sitting on the couch, and went over
to assure her, “Irene will definitely get Tommy back. You don’t have to worry.”

Sheryl was neutral toward the boy, even though Lionel wanted her and Irene to take care of him, even
passing down everything he had to them just for that.

Still, Sheryl was not about to harass Lionel’s only son–children should not be made to suffer for their
parents‘ crimes.

Moreover, Lionel had since passed away, and all grief and hate departed with him.

“I know. You should get some rest,” Sheryl told Ricky.

“Okay. Call me anytime you need me,” Ricky replied.

Sheryl nodded, and the boy headed upstairs as she stayed at the living room couch.

She could not sleep–her daughter would not be coerced if she had protected Tommy!

Henry had yet to return when Irene arrived at Jefferson Manor, so she waited in the living room for a
while.

The old man only returned when it was almost sunrise, and Irene was about to go up and greet him
when she saw Moneypenny being shepherded into the manor.

He extended a hand, and Irene took it to help keep him steady.

“It’s not Ian–I’ve checked,” he said.

The fact was comforting to him.



After all, he had been fearful that Ian’s family was involved. If they did, not even Henry himself could
shield them from Isaac’s wrath.

“By the way, do you know a man named Harvey Gooding?” he asked.

Irene nodded. “Yes. He has beef with Isaac.”

“Ah. So he’s after Isaac?” Henry asked.

“I don’t know,” Irene replied.
