The Runaway Groom Chapter 184


    Chapter 184


    “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 wille 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 Tommy is his,” Irene exined. “You have to keep it a secret too.”


    Ricky appeared taken aback. “What, did you think I’d break my promise and tell Isaac about Tommy?”


    “Ricky, we share a father, even if he’s gone now and we had different mothers. That makes you my


    brother, and that will never change. I hope you deserve my full trust.”


    Irene had been doing her best to bridge the rtionship between herself and Ricky for a while now, and


    hoped that he would not disappoint her.


    Ricky pursed his lips and lowered his gaze, as she continued, “I’lle up with something. Don’t


    worry.”


    “Okay,” Ricky replied.


    Ireen sat behind her desk, knowing then that Isaac was up to no good.


    Did he want her to suffer? Or perhaps he wanted her to go to him, crying for forgiveness?


    She would do neither, let alone try to cajole him.

    Resting her chin on her hands, she wondered what she should do about the returned goods. It


    basically meant losing capital!


    She then checked the time. Since it was not at allte, she called Harvey.


    Harvey was actually surprised that she called. “I didn’t think you’d call me first–I was just about to do it


    myself. It seems that we’re really meant for each other.”


    Irene was not in the mood. “Did you tell Isaac we’re getting married?”


    “I personally sent the invitation too. What, is he harassing you? Where are you now? I’lle.


    “You don’t have to, and he’s not harassing me. He just gave me a little issue at work… Wait, he’s not


    harassing you?”


    Given Isaac’s temper, both of them should be suffering right about now.


    Harvey chuckled. “He got me twice before, but I’m fully prepared this time. There’s no way he can


    mess with me aside from causing minor annoyances.”


    “Hold on, is that concern I’m hearing?” he suddenly asked.


    “I’m not in the mood for that. It’s just a question.”


    “Well, is he bothering you? Do you need help?”


    “No,” Irene replied, and hung up.


    She had alreadye up with a solution, and dialed Ricky’s number.


    “Ricky, can you approach inte celebrities? Let’s ask them to help retail the returned goods


    ourselves instead of selling it wholesale.”


    Ricky had been gloomy over the issue, and became spirited immediately. “Right! Wholesale prices are


    low anyway, but we’ll earn more on retail even after paying the celebritiesmission! That said, it’s a


    lot of goods… when could we sell everything off?”
