    The Runaway Groom Chapter 992


    James shrugged. “He’s just messing around-that’s just what he’s like, so just ignore him. He’s not that


    bad either.


    “I know,” Erin replied while helping James button his shirt. “If he were that terrible, you wouldn’t be


    hanging out with him.”


    As James looked at her, Erin smiled. ‘And you’re not that bad either.”


    James brushed her hair with his fingers then. “Aren’t you going home yet?”


    “My leave isn’t over yet,” Erin said, and she picked up the bowl of soup to hand it over..


    James always humored her and would finish the food she cooked whether it tasted good, while never


    forgetting to praise her. “Your cooking is getting better. I don’t think I can eat anyone else’s cooking


    soon.”


    However, Erin was staring at him seriously. “I think I should resign. You’re hurt, and you need someone


    to take care of you…”


    James put the bowl down to look at her then.


    He naturally wanted Erin to stay at his side, but he was unsure if she just wanted to take care of him or if


    she had gotten over her trauma.


    Erin met his gaze and knew what he wanted to say.


    She was in turn honest. “If you don’t mind it… I can love you like I did before.”

    “Of course I won’t mind,” James replied and gathered her into his arms.” Silly.”


    The ones who should be dead were, and he had long since gotten over it too.


    He heard that even Ian Jefferson sumbed to his injury after Hector Vaughn chopped off his leg, which


    was good news to him.


    While Isaac told everyone that he went to Minerva to get his eyes treated, he was secretly investigating


    Hector’s whereabouts-they would find him eventually.


    It was also why Isaac refused to bring Irene along to Minerva. With Hector still in hiding and bent on


    exacting revenge upon Isaac, Irene would definitely be in danger if she stayed with him. Naturally, Isaac


    did not tell Irene that so that she would not worry.


    As Erin leaned on his chest, she asked, “Would you like toe to Minerva with me?’


    As James was left quiet in bemusement, she exined, “I’m not telling you to resign. I just think it’d be


    the same if you went to Minerva with me, since you’d be staying home to recover.”


    She certainly knew that James would never leave Isaac and therefore would not ask that. Still, she would


    like to have more time with him while he was recovering.


    “Sure,” James replied.


    Erin beamed happily and said, “I’ll tell Irene.”


    However, James suddenly caught her wrist, and Erin wheeled on him.” Regretting it already? Don’t you


    dare!”


    “No, I’m not,” James grinned as he pulled herself to him, holding the back of her head as he leaned in


    and kissed her lips. “I’ll go wherever you go.”


    “Okay.” Erin smiled in turn and left the room.


    She found Zachary in the living room, and he actually took a bowl of soup and was sitting there as he


    drank.


    Erin went over and asked, “Is it good?”


    Zachary nodded. “It’s very sweet.”


    Erin was speechless-there was really something wrong with him!


    She had added certain herbs while she cooked it to help with James’ recovery.


    She had tasted it herself, and it was definitely bitter.


    “You need to get your tongue checked,” Erin told him.


    Zachary looked up at her then. “Come, sit. Let’s have a chat.”


    “I’m busy. I need to talk to Irene,’ she replied.


    “She left with her children. She’s not at home,” Zachary replied.


    “I see,” Erin said and went to sit on the couch, staring at Zachary as she asked, “There’s something


    weighing on your mind, right?”
