All Chapters of The Runaway Groom: Chapter 181 - Chapter 190

Isaac finally looked up from his work when he heard Irene's name.Harvey naturally became smug at that, and opened the envelope to Isaac so that he could see the photo enclosed inside and their name. "See?"Isaac remained calm and unaffected. "I dumped her. Take her with you all you want."However, Harvey knew by now that he was too good at pretending, and did not even mind his dissing. "Of course—you dumped her, and that's on you. I don't mind that she's been with other men, and she'll be mine from now on. For that, I have to thank you for letting go, but don't worry, I'll give her some proper loving.""Get out!" Isaac snapped, scrawling a signature on the bottom of a document and throwing it aside.Harvey was grinning ear to ear at his response, as if challenging Isaac to hit him. "It's this Saturday, Mr. Jefferson! Don't forget!"Isaac's lips curled up savagely as Harvey put down the invitation. "See you there."With that, he whistled a tune cheerfully and smugly left Isaac's

"Isaac Jefferson?" Ricky became indignant. "Isn't he your husband, Irene? He even sent his assistant to help you, but he's suddenly harassing you?""That are you talking about, Ricky?" The supervisor appeared surprised. "He's not married, let alone to your sister…"After all, Irene and Isaac's marriage was not publicly known, and not many people knew about it. Less important people like the logistics supervisor here were certainly not privy.Irene smiled. "Ricky just got a little drunk. Don't listen to him."With that, she started dragging Ricky to her office while telling the supervisor to leave work for now. "We will come up with something tomorrow.""Oh, okay." The supervisor thought nothing of it, presuming that Ricky was really drunk."Irene." Ricky frowned. "Why are you dragging me? And you did marry Isaac—""Ricky." Irene cut him short. "We're divorced, so don't ever mention that to anyone.""When?" Ricky gaped. "Is he abandoning his son too?""He doesn't know that Tomm

Isaac's expression turned icy, and the air around him seemed to cool as well."Irene Spencer! Did you really think Harvey Gooding loves you? Don't forget that you were married to me, and consummated—""Isaac Jefferson!" Irene snapped, cutting him short."What, can't take it already?" Isaac mocked, holding out a hand to her. "You can still walk away with me now."Irene was laughing despite her indignation. "You were the one who demanded a divorce, and it has been finalized. Also, aren't you with Kathy York? Are you sure she won't get jealous that you're here? Oh, and I also heard that you gave her your most prized possession—I guess you really love her, congratulations!""I'm just returning that thing to its owner," Isaac replied without thinking.Irene raised her brow. "So it's hers. I guess you two really go a long way back."Isaac pursed his lips but could not deny it, since she was the one who saved him as a child, or he would not have rehired her—even if his grandfather had

Although Harvey looked masculine as he shielded Irene, he had always led an easy life and had never been in a fight. The men from the Hummers, however, were all as burly as they were strong, easily dragging him out of their way!While grabbing Irene would have been an easy task after that, Irene had grabbed on to the car door and refused to get out. "Who are you people?!""Don't ask. Just come quietly, and we won't hurt you—resist, and we will have to resort to violence." The men's faces were stiff and impassive.Naturally, Irene refused to let go since she had no idea where they came from, or who she had offended enough to send them!"What do you think you are doing?!" Harvey was losing his temper—one of the men had restrained him, but none of the others were being violent, and it was clear that they were only after Irene."Don't bother," the man restraining him then told his friends, "take him away and be quick. Don't leave any traces either."With that, Irene was dragged away

Isaac looked up at Stan just then, but did not deny it!As Stan came to a realization, he carefully suggested, "Sir, you shouldn't have rehired Kathy York in that case. Women are petty, and Ms. Spencer must have been upset to see her around. That's not going to work in a relationship."Isaac snorted. "A relationship? After she pushed me away to another woman?" Stan was stumped, but it was true—if Irene really was in love with Isaac, she would not be able to bear her man getting cozy with other women. People get territorial in relationships, after all. No one would be willing to share their partner if there is love involved!"Well, if she's not interested, you can just let her marry Harvey Gooding. Nothing good comes out of coercion, and you're not going to keep her confined for life, are you?"Isaac's visage turned cold. "I will not let her be with another man even if she's not interested."Stan was speechless. Did he just basically say 'if I can't have her, no one can?'Ho
