The Runaway Groom Chapter 355
Chapter 355
Irene could hear Lindsay, but she did not turn around or respond.
However, Lindsay knew that her secret was out and that Irene knew who she was, so she simply gave
up on pretending. “I know it’s you, Irene Spencer–I’ve been careless. I should have recognized your
voice, but I only caught on when I saw you checking my underarm.”
Irene finally turned around just then, and asked, “You know me?”
“There’s no need to hide now. We both know what’s going on. Don’t you think we should talk?”
Irene stared at Whitney, suddenly unsure what she was up to. “What do you want?”
“I just wanted to talk, but if you don’t want to, fine.”
Whitney turned and started to leave, but Irene stopped her, and they headed to the staircase.
“I never expected that it’d be you who found out first, Whitney said as she stared at Irene. “Isaac
Jefferson tried to kill me because of you. Don’t you think I deserve to hold a grudge?”
“You deserved it. Do you still not understand what you’ve done? You are the reason I lost a child, and
as the father, Isaac definitely wants you dead. He’d be unfitting as a father if he is unmoved.”
Whitney narrowed her eyes. “He knows.”
“Of course,” Irene replied.
Whitney clenched her hand and rxed, but her heart was aze with spite and jealous. “That’s why
he was being so protective, shielding you from that st.”
Ireneughed. “Of course. He has been so sweet, not to mention that he outshines Chad in every way
You know that, don’t you? Not only would he shield me from that bomb, but he was willing to die doing
it. You can try something else if you don’t believe me.”
She was deliberately provoking Whitney, but Whitney sharply noticed that Irene was trying to trick a
confession out of her, and she quickly said, “What bomb? I don’t know what you’re talking about.” “You
know Isaac was hurt from a st. What, are you saying that you’re not the one who nted the
bomb?”
Irene pretended to be puzzled, but Whitney had learned her lesson and did not take that easily.
“Don’t try to frame me,” she growled as she moved closer to Irene. “You stole my man, Irene Spencer,
and it’s time we settled this.”
Irene simply retreated to keep her distance. “Your man? What, are you saying that you’re not the
brazen one who pretended to be me? You wouldn’t even have had the chance to get acquainted with
Isaac if not for
me, and you’re still shameless enough to say that he’s yours? How thick–skinned… Or is your skin
made of rock?”
She unceremoniously exposed Whitney, humiliating her.
As Whtiney remembered her inglorious past, her face contorted and she lunged toward Irene.
However, Irene quickly evaded Whitney, since she was prepared for it.
Missing her chance, Whitney’s embarrassment turned into fury. “Don’t get so smug, Irene Spencer. I
heard that Isaac left the country–no one is here to protect you!”
Irene simply ignored her, and Whitney wanted nothing less to tear off her pretty cheeks right then, and
the
way she looked so unmoved!
She hated Irene because she was always soposed, rarely losing control or getting hysterical.
“How am I any less than you? Why do you get to have everything? All the boys at med school were
hovering around you, and the hospital chief admired you soon after we started out as interns… How
frustrating it is that you keep overshadowing me!”
Whitney did not think that she was any lesser than Irene, but simply had bad luck. That was why the
men who admired her were the likes of Chad, who was rich, but did not even have looks.
On the other hand, Irene had Zachary te, who was said to be a rich kid and had good looks, and he
always kept an eye out for her.

And now, she was married to Isaac! It was as if she only ever got all the good men!
Suddenly, Whitney started walking toward the stairs. “You will suffer like I did, Irene Spencer.”
Irene was actually confused for a moment. “What are you talking about?”
“You will suffer–just like I did.” With that, Whitney closed her eyes and fell!
Irene’s eyes widened in shock. “What-?!”
