I Only Want You novel Chapter 922

"Isaac?"

Benjamin also walked to Isaac, "Did you... see anyone just now?"

After a long while, Isaac smiled feebly, "I made a mistake."

James and Benjamin looked at each other and had a rough idea of their hearts. It couldn't be someone sent by Maxwell or the woman who was going to be engaged to Isaac. Otherwise, he would not be like this.

"Isaac..." James lowered his voice slightly, "Who... did you see?"

"No one." Isaac shook his head, "I was wrong."

James nodded. He originally wanted to ask Isaac who he had seen, but he did not want to get to the bottom of the matter when he saw Isaac's listless face, so he said, "There are so many people today." It was not impossible for Isaac to make a mistake.

Isaac smiled faintly, but his face was full of helplessness. He staggered to the sofa in the lounge and sat down with his elbows on his knees. Then he wiped his face heavily,

"Perhaps."

James glanced at Benjamin and motioned to him to say something.

Benjamin pursed his lips and did not say a word. He glanced at James, indicating that it was improper for him to say anything.

James frowned and felt anxious, but he didn't know what to do.

Just as he was about to say something to ease the tense atmosphere, Isaac said self-mockingly, "Everyone knows that she has died. We searched for her for so long, but we didn't find her. She lost so much blood at that time, and running to the river was her limit. She jumped into the river. How could she be alive..."

Saying this, he suffered violent mood swings and swallowed a few times with difficulty, "Just now... that person... was really like her. Although I just saw her back..."

Hearing this, James suddenly opened his eyes wide, and then he understood.

Isaac looked so delighted just now... If he really saw Adele, no, even if he just saw a similar figure, his actions were reasonable.

Benjamin didn't expect the reason to be like this. He thought for a moment, but said nothing. He just walked to Isaac, took out a cigarette and handed it to him.

Seeing this, Isaac did not reach out. He shook his head, indicating that he did not want it.

James saw it and did not say anything. He just took the cigarette that Benjamin was about to hand over to Isaac, lit it up and gave it to Isaac.

At this time, he thought that Isaac needed a cigarette.

Isaac closed his eyes and reached out to take it. However, his hands kept trembling.

After getting the cigarette, he took a deep draw on it, but he didn't seem to know how to smoke. He didn't spit out the smoke in time and coughed again and again.

Benjamin reached out and patted Isaac's back, "Slow down."

Isaac laughed, "I know. I'm just..." He sighed, "You know what? When I saw the figure at that time, I thought there was a miracle, and I thought she was alive. She used to play with you before and had a good relationship with you. Jimmy gets married today, so she came here. Perhaps..."

"She had scruples, so she didn't dare to show up. But... after all, you were like her brother and you doted on her so much, so she wanted to come see you at your wedding. At that time... that was what I really thought."

"But... I have rejoiced too soon." Isaac smiled, "I looked for her for so long, and I searched for so many places. I searched all the places I could think of in this hotel, but I didn't find her."

"Later, I... realized that I had made a mistake. My eyes deceived me. How could a dead person come back to life?"

"If she didn't jump into the river back then, maybe I could be expectant and wish that she would come back one day. However, that's impossible. My hopes dashed into pieces."

He gave himself hope. After realizing that he had rejoiced too soon, he felt endlessly disappointed and dejected. He felt empty and painful in his heart, and he even didn't know what to do.

During this period of time, he forced himself not to think about the past. Sometimes it worked, especially in recent days. He had begun to carry out his plan, so he was very busy.

If he wanted to go against Maxwell, he had to be extremely careful and prepared, and he couldn't make any mistake. Otherwise... he would fail, and his mother would suffer.

No matter who he did this for, he could only succeed.

But that day, he seemed to have returned to his former state. He couldn't be more desperate. He was like a lost lamb, and he didn't know how long it would take for him to get out of this kind of despair.

Benjamin looked at Isaac and then said to James, "Jimmy, Isaac may need to... take a break now. Don't let him propose a toast with us."

James nodded, "Mm."

Isaac shook his head, "There's no need. I can do it. It is Jimmy's wedding and I'm his best man. You've been worried about me, and I should do what I have to do. Besides, it's lively outside. If I can talk to people from time to time, I may feel better."

"Isaacjust listen to us and rest here."
