The Runaway Groom Chapter 150


    Chapter 150


    As Irene quietly exined everything, Isaac realized that while he had a general idea of what


    happened, he did not have the details.


    Now that he knew Samantha had picked that quiet ce to attempt murder, he stiffened and asked,


    “Were you hurt?”


    Irene shook her head.


    Isaac was relieved, and remembered the injuries she inflicted on Harvey as well.


    She knew her way around a scalpel–she was not about to get hurt that easily.


    Even so, she was a woman–she had limits to her strength no matter how smart she was.


    “Be more careful next time,” he told her. “Contact me at once when you get in trouble next


    time.”


    “Okay,” Irene said, her bright, crystalline gaze flickering just then. “Isaac, I…”


    She wanted to tell her that she had a child just then, but swallowed her words just as it reached the tip


    of her tongue.


    “What is it?” Isaac asked.


    Irene hung her head, wondering how she should piece the sentence. “I had something to say


    yesterday, didn’t I?”


    “Yeah?”


    “I…”


    Bzzt-


    Her cell phone suddenly started vibrating in her pocket.


    Isaac could see her hesitation. “Just say what you need to say. You don’t have to hesitate.”


    Mustering her courage, she said, “I had a child!”

    Isaac pursed his lips–she had told him that before.


    For Irene’s part, she knew from his gaze that he thought she was referring to her other twin which did


    not survive delivery… which was a lie.


    “No, I mean…”


    “I don’t mind,” Isaac insisted.


    As her phone started to vibrate again, Irene became worried that it was Sheryl, and she could not


    afford to wait if something happened to Tommy.


    “Never mind,” she said, and turned to leave when Isaac caught her wrist!


    His gaze was almost searing. “Where are you going? Just stay here for the night.”


    “I have something to do,” Irene said quietly.


    I


    “What is it?”


    “I have to contact my mom. My father is terminally ill, and he wants to see her. I should at least tell her


    about it.”


    It was a half–truth, but Isaac could not meddle anyway since it was serious business.


    “Okay,” he said and let her go.


    Irene strode out of his room, returning to her own and sitting on her bed to scroll through her call logs.


    It turned out to be a missed call from Lulu instead.


    Hesitating for a moment, she then called her back, and Lulu quickly picked up.


    “Irene…”


    “Yeah. How are things going over there?” Irene asked, concerned about how things were going with


    Lulu and Zachary.


    Lulu did not answer, but Irene soon noticed sniffles from the other end.


    “Were you… crying?” she asked.


    Lulu did not respond, and Irene knew right then that she was in a bad state!


    “What happened?” she asked urgently, but it seemed that Lulu was emotionally torn and could not


    compose herself enough to talk.


    “Where are you right now?” Irene asked then.


    It took a while for Lulu to eventually answer, “I’m at Zachary’s ce. Could youe give me a ride?”


    “Of course,” Irene replied. “But I don’t know where he lives–I’ve never been there. Why don’t you send


    me your location?”


    “Okay,” Lulu replied.
