The Runaway Groom Chapter 140


    Chapter 140


    Irene knew for a fact that rich kids like Chad were very afraid of death


    Her visage was calm and her words direct. “Let me go ”


    Chad refused “I doubt you’d kill me


    He was convinced that a girl like her would never go that far, unaware that she was a doctor that


    anyone brave enough to pick up a scalpel was no coward!


    Irene simply pressed the sharp ss shard until it broke his skin, and as Chad felt the sharp pain in his


    neck, and reached up for a touch


    His soul almost left him when he felt the warm, sticky sensation of his own blood’


    “W-Wait a minute!” he stammered nervously


    “You’re trying to humiliate me I’d really deserve it if I didn’t fight back” Having performed surgeries,


    Irene’s hands were steady she kept pressing the ss shard against Chad, making him feel the pain


    and kept making him bleed


    It would look serious on appearance, but it was hardly life threatening


    After all, a doctor knows the human body from top to bottom, and what could be potentially lethal or


    otherwise!


    Naturally, Chad cowed immediately, “I was just worried you’d renege on our deal’ I just needed


    leverage-1 didn’t want to humiliate you! No photos, okay?”


    Irene’s response was more pressure. “Let me go now!”


    “Didn’t we agree to destroy Isaac together?!” Chad cried, still convinced that she had a grudge against


    Isaac.


    “You actually believed that?” Ireneughed coolly.


    “You lied? But I thought he was mean to you…’


    “He is, but I’ll avenge myself by my own actions. I dislike partners it’s that simple,” she said, and forced


    Chad to move to the doorway. “Open the door.”


    Chad hesitated, but quickly gave in when Irene promptly made him feel that death wasing. Chad’s


    men saw him being held hostage and promptly became alert, ring at her viciously. However, Chad


    was still bleeding from his neck, and certainly did not dare to make any false moves. “Don’te


    closer,” he told his men. “Let her go.”

    ”


    They eventually got downstairs, where there were enough bystanders.


    Seeing her chance, she pushed Chad away and bolted-but was not really seeing where she was going,


    and ran headlong into someone’s arms.


    She was just going to look up and apologize when she saw that it was Isaac.


    Her eyes widened. “W-Were you looking for me?”


    Isaac’s expression, however, was impassive-devoid of his earlier gentleness, with only


    cruelty showing.


    He was silent, and looked past her to Chad, who was clutching his neck.


    The man was still terrified since he was still bleeding from the neck, and worried that he was in mortal


    danger.


    “Why are you just staring?” he yelled. “Call an ambnce already!”


    Isaac had a general idea how he was injured just then.


    He lowered his gaze at Irene… and turned around without a word.


    Irene was confused! What had gotten into him this time?


    Was he upset again?


    Biting her lip, she gave chase but said nothing either.


    She felt puzzled–she had clearly just escaped, and he was now flipping out at her before she could


    catch her breath?


    She was not in the mood to be sweet!


    As they reached his car, Isaac got in.


    Just as Irene reached for the door handle, he told Stan, “Drive.”


    *Stan nced at Irene, but floored the gas pedal, leaving Irene standing there and breathing


    fumes!


    She frowned.


    What was his deal? Did he regret being nice to her already?


    Why the silent treatment? He could have just told her it was not as if she wanted to stay with him!


    Taking a taxi back to the mansion, Mrs. Watson promptly rushed to Irene’s side when she saw her.


    “Where have you been, Mrs. Jefferson?”


    She thought that Irene was running away again.


    “Something came up,” Irene simply said, and headed upstairs.
