The Runaway Groom Chapter 387


    Chapter 387


    Irene turned toward the door to find Mick ring at her with crimson eyes–La, who was standing


    beside him, was stunned by his reaction too.


    “Mick…”


    La put an arm around Mick’s, and he suddenly realized that he was overagitated- La was still with


    him.


    However, Irene could see that he was panicking.


    Why? What was he trying to hide?


    La asked mildly, “What got you upset, Mick?”


    “No, I just misheard,” Mick quickly tried to assure her. “Did I scare you?”


    La shook her head. “I’m fine, but you don’t look too good.”


    “I’m just thirsty. Could you get me something?” Mick said.


    “Okay,” La replied.


    Having diverted her away with ease, Mick turned to level a vicious re at Irene.” You’re Isaac


    Jefferson’s wife?”


    Irene took a step back, and kept a hand on Stephen’s desk to keep her bnce. “Yes.”


    Mick narrowed his eyes and started to approach her, but Stephen quickly stepped in


    between them. “Calm down, Mick.”


    Mick simply shoved him away. “You did this on purpose, didn’t you?”


    Stephen’s face fell in disappointment right then. “How many years have we known each other, Mick?


    Don’t you trust me at all? Everyone would know by now if I never kept your secret.”


    Mick realized that he was out of line just then, and actually looked flustered. “I’m sorry…”


    “I didn’t know that she’s been married since she’s young, and to Isaac Jefferson at that,” Stephen


    exined then. “Maybe this is destiny. I did that operation on Yvaine Lynd, and now her daughter–in–


    law has be my apprentice…”


    “Stop!” Mick cut him short.


    Stephen actually felt that Mick was getting unreasonable just then, and tried to talk


    him out of it, “Even if both myself and Irene kept quiet, there’s no hiding this. If we don’t take it out of


    La’s head, she’s going to die–she can’t bear the stress after two surgeries. Yes, she might slowly


    remember after it’s removed, but she would’ve eventually found out anyway. There’s no way you can


    hide it…”


    Mick turned toward Irene with red eyes then. “Then she must not tell Isaac Jefferson.


    For him, being able to hide it for another day was just fine.


    Even if La would one day remember everything and hate him for it, he was willing to ept it–but


    the truth must note to light just yet.


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.


    Murderous intent fueled him, and he growled, “You’re a doctor, Stephen. With both of us working


    together, we won’t leave a trace–I’ll make sure you have all the fame and riches for the rest of your life


    even if we get caught.”


    “Mick!” Stephen was stunned by his words, and quickly told Irene, “Leave us for now, Dr. Spencer.”


    Right now, Mick was seeing red and was capable of anything.


    “Don’t even think about it,” Mick simply moved up, blocking the way to the door and shutting it.


    On the other hand, Irene had a general idea now after hearing so much.


    Stephen and Mick were good friends, and Stephen had agreed to surgically imnt something that


    affected La’s memories in her brain.


    While La was under the impression that she had undergone a surgery, the truth was that she had


    two–and it would be the third if they were to operate on her again


    now.
