Chapter 910


    The Runaway Groom Chapter 910


    James nced at Irene through the rearview mirror, but he was assuredly surprised by herposure


    and poise at the meeting just now.


    “Very good,” he replied.


    Irene’s smile faded at that and she rubbed her cheeks firmly.


    She had been smiling constantly while she had been upstairs, because she had to fake it.


    With Isaac’s whereabouts unknown, she has to muster her spirit.


    Returning to the hilltop mansion, she saw that Eagle had just returned with Mrs. Watson as well.


    After alighting, Mrs. Watson quickly went up to her, saying, “Mrs. Jefferson, I’ll go with you.”


    Irene said, “But your health…”


    “I’m fine.” Mrs. Watson patted her chest. “See? I’m fine.”


    Irene nodded. “I’ll arrange for a doctor for you over there.”


    “No, I’m really fine,” Mrs. Watson insisted. “I would’ve discharged myself if you hadn’t told me to stay at


    the hospital. I was almost bored to death there! Oh, can I see Tommy now? I’ve missed him since it’s


    been a few days.”


    With that, Mrs. Watson jogged into the mansion.


    Irene turned toward Eagle at that. “You should pack up too.”


    Eagle nodded.


    –


    Irene and her family arrived at the airport at 6 PM, and James had already arranged for a flight.


    Although there were a lot of them and a lot of luggage to bring along, they could board right away


    thanks to James’s help.


    Even the luggage was flown on the same ne instead of requiring logistics.


    Irene stayed calm even as she got onboard, personally coaxing her baby when she started to cry a fit.


    Tommy was older, and could stay put with food.


    “Mommy, Grandma said we’re going on a trip. Is that true?”


    Tommy had asked Sheryl why she was packing her things, and she came up with the excuse of going


    on a trip abroad.


    He was certainly happy about it, but Sheryl could not help sighing as she looked at the boy.


    Nheless, Irene smiled and replied, “Yeah, we’re going to Franconia. There are many fun ces


    there—I’ll have someone show you around.”


    “What about you and Daddy?” Tommy asked. “Can’t we go together?”


    Irene had to withstand a split second of heartache before saying, “We’re busy.”


    Sheryl waved to Tommy. “Over here, Tommy. Sit tight, don’t move around.”


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    Even if Irene did not tell her, Sheryl knew that there was trouble.


    No matter how hard Irene tried to pretend, Sheryl could read Irene like a book.


    Still, Tommy leaned against Irene and said, “I want Mommy to carry me.”


    “She’s busy with your baby brother, Tommy. She can’t carry you,” Sheryl said patiently.


    Tommy pouted unhappily, and reluctantly returned to Sheryl’s side. “He took Mommy from me.”


    Sheryl smiled. “He’s still a baby!”


    Tommy leaned into Sheryl’s arms and looked up to her face. “I’m a baby too!”


    Sherly patted his little head and exined, “You’re a big boy now. You have to protect your baby


    brother and your mommy now.”


    “And Grandma too,” Tommy said, tugging at the hem of her blouse.


    Sheryl beamed. “I knew I didn’t babysit you for nothing.”


    Eventually, Tommy fell asleep after wearing himself out from ying, and he had to be carried when


    the nended.


    There was a reception waiting, and Irene, still holding her baby, followed everyone in the car.


    James helped with putting the luggage into the trunk just as Tommy woke up in the car.


    He leaned against the window and looked outside, feeling a little excited at the new environment.


    On the other hand, Sheryl appeared mncholic. She was staring at Irene but hesitating to speak.


    She ultimately asked nothing, while they soon arrived at the castle.


    The grand gardens outside were as magnificent a view as ever.


    Because of the time difference, it was afternoon when they arrived.


    The quiet castle was suddenly lively.


    Pierre greeted Irene immediately when he saw her, having met her before. “Good afternoon, Mrs.


    Jefferson.”


    Irene nodded and said, “Once everyone’s settled in, you can ask the kitchen to prepare lunch for us.”


    “It’s already prepared, Mrs. Jefferson.” Pierre smiled, since James had already informed him of their


    arrival beforehand.


    With that, Irene carried her baby to the master bedroom, while Pierre led the rest to their respective


    rooms.


    Sheryl naturally stayed upstairs to take care of the children, while Mrs. Watson, the old chauffeur, and


    Eagle all stayed downstairs.


    Later, Irene summoned Eagle and James to her room.
