Chapter 247

Irene promptly cut Ricky short, disregarding his cries.” Don’t give me that! Just tell me–do you still hold
a

grudge against me? Or did someone tell you to do this?!”

Ricky quickly shook his head. “You’re family, I’d never

hold a grudge… Someone threatened me.”

“Who?” Irene asked sharply.

Ricky took out his phone and gave it to her. “Look here-

it’s anonymous, so I don’t even know who it is. I can’t

track the guys down, either.”

Irene glanced at the screen and frowned. “Your mom’s supposed to be in prison, isn’t she?”

“I checked. She’s really gone,” Ricky admitted, coming clean now that he has nothing to hide. “Every
text sent to me was encrypted, and they’re threatening me with my mother’s life! I can’t-”

“So they told you to hurt Tommy?” Irene cut him short.

Ricky nodded fervently. “Yes! They seemed to know every detail about me, and gave me the substance
by mail. They told me it won’t hurt Tommy, but I knew that it won’t do

him good either… S–So I just put in a small amount…”



Irene’s heart skipped a beat. Fury soon overcame her, and she gave Ricky a tight slap across the face
right there and

then.

“Why didn’t you come to me first if you were in trouble? Did you think I’ll forgive you just because you
came clean?!”

Instead of talking things out with her, he had to do things his way–had he slipped up even a little, he
could’ve killled Tommy!

Seething, she snarled, “This is all your fault!”

“I know! I’m sorry!” Ricky hung his head, a bright palm print glimmering over his face.

Irene wasn’t about to accept his apology. “Tell me! What else did they order you to do other than
poisoning Tommy?”

“They sent the information about the casino ship and told me to leak it to the media,” Ricky admitted.
“I’m sure they want to stay anonymous, which is why they’re using my mother as leverage so that I do
everything for

them.”

Irene then remembered Stan telling her and Isaac that

Ricky was indeed the one who leaked the news to the media. However, who was the one controlling
him?



“Look, I know it’s all my fault. Please, please forgive me… “Ricky cried as he dropped to his knees
before Irene. ” They have my mom…”

Though Irene understood the gravity of the situation, she was still livid.

“I can’t forgive you that easily,” she breathed through clenched teeth. “Whatever the reason you had,
you

almost killed my baby!”

“I know,” Ricky sobbed, his eyes welling with tears. “I’m worried about my mom… Even if she was
terrible to you, I can’t just leave her! She’s still my mom…”

Irene turned away. “I’ll settle this later, but the pressing thing right now is to find who they are.
Otherwise, they’d just hit us from the shadows again!”

Ricky nodded repeatedly. “Y–Yes, of course…”

Irene clenched her fists. “I’m your sister, but you still wouldn’t trust me. You’d rather be controlled like a

puppet when there’s trouble instead of talking to me. Get this in your head–you almost killed Tommy,
and he’s just a baby!”

Her words trailed off as her voice suddenly turned raspy.

“I’m sorry…” Ricky repeated.

Irene didn’t want to hear that now, and she simply told him, “Just tell me right away if they contact you
again— two heads are always better than one.”

Ricky nodded, while Irene mused to herself.



She had no idea who could have enough influence to extract a prisoner out of a penitentiary, and was
so intent on killing her baby.

There was no question that they hated her to the bone, but who could it be?

“What should we do now? They’ll keep pushing me if they find out that Tommy’s fine…” Ricky pointed
out.

“Go home for now. Tell me if you get another text,” Irene said, and returned to the hospital alone.

Although there were people guarding. Tommy now, her baby was alone and she was worried…

However, she returned to his ward to find Isaac sitting by Tommy’s crib.

Why would he be there?!
