The Runaway Groom Chapter 469
Having hatched a plan in her head, Erin was feeling buoyed and refrained from bugging James.Clasping her hands behind her back, she was grinning even as she left.She found a potential means of breakthrough, so it was not as if the day was wasted. On the other hand, James was feeling less than happy. Even as he kept walking, he was looking behind to check that he was not being followed, worried that Erin would latch on to him again.If she did, it would be a catastrophe! …Later in the evening, James got a call from Irene. "It's Dr. Tanner. Is the patient free at the moment? I can help him with the treatment now.""Of course," James replied. "We're at Olston Hotel, Room 909.""Okay," Irene said and put away her phone.She stood in front of her mirror, checking her disguise and ensuring that it was flawless before heading over.At the same time, James headed to Isaac's room to inform him, "Sir, Dr. Tanner will soon arrive for your treatment."Isaac was sitting on the c

The thought that Isaac was going to get buck naked in front of a woman so hideous she almost made him throw up left James's lips twitching.What an image it was!He stepped out of the room right then, patting his chest and counting his blessing that he was not the one suffering from insomnia.With a woman like that, his insomnia would probably get worse… No, he would probably get nightmares instead!How fortunate he was to be blessed with good health!…Meanwhile, Isaac was staring at the woman of marvelous ugliness as she stood at the bathroom door. "Are you going to watch me undress?""Gender is no issue for doctors," Irene replied calmly.Isaac raised a brow.Whether he had given up or something else, he actually began to unbutton his shirt!Soon, his beautiful collarbone came to view, followed by his chiseled chest. Irene was the first to blink and she was complaining inwardly if he was a little insane, being able to stay calm even with a woman as ugly as her…On the o

Irene's body and thoughts froze.H-He was awake?What should she do?How was she going to explain herself?Could she say that he was too good looking, and that she could not help it?What should she do?The instant she felt him hold her, she came up with so many excuses…But Isaac never opened his eyes, even though he was actually pushing his tongue up against hers now and was kissing her so hard that he was almost devouring her.She felt her breath leaving her lungs. Was he really awake…?"I missed you, Irene…" he murmured, almost unintelligibly. But she clearly heard it.She froze.He just said… He missed her?A crystalline drop of tear slid and trickled off the corner of her eye, dripping on his cheek.Isaac did not wake up—he was actually dreaming. Irene slowly got up. So, it was all just sleep-talking. "But I'm happy to hear you say you miss me."She wiped the lipstick from his lips, pulled his blanket over him, and left the hotel room, gently closing the

James's eyes widened, and his face soon contorted and flushed in anger."Erin Gooding! What do you think you're doing?!"Erin was sitting on a chair nearby, leisurely eating some Shine Muscat while glancing at him sideways. "What's all the fuss for? It's just your clothes. You still have your underwear on, but don't expect it to stay that way if you don't cooperate."James was speechless. What was she playing at?!"Let me go right now!" he snapped.Erin, however, was not afraid at all, and allowed him to fume as much as he wanted, even blinking her eyes innocently at him. "You're all tied up. I can leave you here to starve you to death, but you're still ordering me around? Are you really sober?"James could not say anything against that. He did not want to admit it, but it was harsh reality. As such, he restrained himself and flashed a fawning smile, "Erin, darling? Seeing that I'm a good friend of your brother, could you show your magnanimity and let me go?""Sure." Erin

James had barely finished when one of the three burly men pushed him back inside the room.Erin was huffing and she promptly snapped when she saw that. "Fuck him up!"The three of them charged forward, and one of them landed a heavy jab on his left eye, flooring him.Luckily, James had seen action, and quickly grabbed a chair, swinging it at the man nearest to him, knocking him out!While another man tried to grab him from behind, he leaped aside and kicked him squarely on the back before making a dash outside and making his escape!…Harvey went looking for Irene right after he landed in Minerva. However, he had been knocking on her door for quite a while, but nobody answered.Still, he was going to call her when he noticed some sort of lifeform walking toward him. He flinched in shock—how could someone so ugly exist? When Irene saw him, she asked, "What are you doing here? It's so late already."Harvey appeared incredulous. "W-Wait, you're Irene?""Yeah," she replied cas

James furrowed his brow. "What are you laughing at? Did you lose your mind?"Harvey was staring at his left eye, however. "Are you trying to turn into a panda, with one black eye?"James raised his hand to hide his bruised eye while glaring at Harvey with the other. "Seeing that you helped me before, I won't hold this against you. But you should know that I have a temper, and don't complain that I never warned you when you mock me again.""I helped you?" Harvey was a little confused.When did he help James, and with what? How did it manage to slip his mind?"Are you sure about that…?""Don't bother. I won't remember it even if it was a huge favor—you laughed at me, so we're even. Now buzz off."With that, James headed toward Isaac's room, leaving Harvey speechless.He doubted that he would help James out of the kindness of his heart.Still, he glanced at the time. "Oh, it's almost seven."He still had to head to Irene's apartment—he did not have any time to waste here.He al

Irene asked, "Who is it?""One of your patients," the hospital chief said, before adding seriously, "He's now a shareholder of our hospital, so try not to get on the wrong side of him. It might complicate your career."She had a patient who was also a shareholder of Mead Clinic?Who?She quickly realized that it might be Isaac. He acquired Mead Clinic shares? Already?Still, it was only Isaac who had such ability among all his patients, especially when it came to tussling with the likes of the Raideens. "He's in the same ward as last time. Go on."Irene became even surer then. "Okay." Once she stepped out, she headed straight for the washroom to quickly put on makeup. She had presumed that she would see him in the evening again, so she forgot to put on her exaggerated makeup in the morning. Fortunately, she had everything prepared in her bag.Ten minutes later, she headed to the ward.To no surprise, Isaac was standing near the window and turned around when he heard the

James was on top of a woman.Irene could not see who it was—only her fair, thin legs.She blinked. James got himself a girlfriend and even brought her to Minerva?Just then, the woman cried out furiously, "Let go of me, James Cross, or I'll scream for help!"Irene was left speechless—that did not seem to be your typical make out session.She quickly turned away, even closing the door for them.Whatever the relationship they had, she should not be looking anyway.Then, she looked up and saw Isaac standing in the walkway, staring at herself. Irene wondered if he caught her spying on James, even though she did not mean to—she was just curious at the time."I saw nothing," she said.Isaac said nothing to that and simply headed to his own room, leaving Irene speechless and unsure what Isaac was thinking. Did he believe her or not? She nervously followed him, and tried to act calm before asking, "Did you sleep well last night, Mr. Jefferson?"Isaac had entered his own room by
