The Runaway Groom Chapter 240

As the realization dawned upon him, Stan exclaimed, You were prepared for this? So long ago?”

Naturally, the thought gave Stan confidence. It meant that they did not have to worry about Henry impeding them in any way. At this, even his tone lightened up considerably. “I didn’t think he could be that heartless…”

Henry would actually take back management of Sky Group!

Isaac, however, remained impassive.

It wasn’t as if he was pleased that the insurance he had prepared kept him safe–in truth, he was sorely disappointed.

 

Irene could sense that Isaac wasn’t in a good mood, and had a rough idea why.

Taking his hand, she said quietly, “I won’t ever leave you.

Even if those around him betrayed or deserted him, she would always stay by his side!

Isaac looked into her eyes and gathered her into his arms, while Irene wrapped her arms around his slender waist.

Self–aware as ever, Stan promptly stepped out of the office with his eyes averted, even closing the door behind him and telling Debbie the secretary, “Don’t let anyone. disturb them.”

“Okay,” Debbie replied, though she hesitated for a moment before stopping Stan. “Do you think this will hurt Mr. Jefferson?”

Stan clapped an assuring hand on her shoulder. “It’ll be fine. Don’t worry.”

Debbie still appeared worried. “I could tell that Henry Jefferson looked upset. I’m afraid-”

“We just have to do what we’re supposed to do, and leave the rest to Mr. Jefferson–think no evil and talk no evil, or everyone else in the office will start panicking too,” Stan advised her.

Debbie quickly understood. “I guess I was paranoid.”

Stan nodded in satisfaction and started to leave. “Good. business I should do the same too.‘

Now go about your

Irene whispered to Isaac, “I’ll talk to her. Just stay in the living room–Tommy’s up, so you can get to know him.”

“Yeah, okay,” Isaac murmured.

“Mom.” Irene then walked up to Sheryl, taking her by her hand. “Come with me for a while. We should talk.”

Sheryl, however, already understood–she had seen how the two were behaving in the morning. Now, they had returned home together.

Rolling her eyes at Irene, she said, “No, we just have to talk here.”

Irene felt uneasy.

Sheryl seemed to be unhappy with Isaac… She wouldn’t say something out of line, would she?

“Tommy’s a baby, and he needs a family and parental love. He was born unlucky and went through a lot, and I’m naturally happy for you two since you’re together now. You have a child together. Even if I’m unhappy about it before, I’ll let it go for Tommy’s sake. Also, now that you two have decided to be together, make sure you can make this work–the most important part about living together is trust, and I hope you both have that. Alright, it’s late now and I have to cook. Just stay here and take care of Tommy.”

With that, Sheryl headed to the kitchen.
