The Runaway Groom Chapter 236

Kathy was stunned. While she did come here on her own volition, she never expected to run into Irene here.

Even so, she did not lay a finger on Irene!

“I-"Isaac didn’t bother to listen to Kathy. “Debbie, see her out.”

"Yes, Mr. Jefferson.”

Debbie the secretary stepped in front of Kathy right then and gestured, "Please.”

Kathy tried to explain. “I didn't touch her!”

Isaac simply ignored Kathy and turned away with Irene. still in his arms, though he soon paused. “If this happens again, you won't be working for this company anymore.”

Kathy felt a chill running down her spine.

She had done so much, yet Isaac still had no interest in her.

Plus, Irene’s provocation actually worked?

Isaac himself had chased Irene away from his mansion! How did that woman return and seduce him? What tricks did Irene use to make him favor her so much?

Kathy was absolutely livid!

As Isaac returned inside his office with Irene, he picked up some tissues and helped her wipe the coffee stains on her. “You could tell me if you don't like her, and I'll chase her out. What if you burned yourself?” Irene looked up then, her pupils dilating in disbelief.” What are you talking about?”

“There are cameras everywhere in this building,” Isaac replied. “I checked out the footage once I heard the commotion.”

He had seen that Kathy didn't lay a finger on Irene, while Irene was doing everything she could to provoke her- Kathy was just stupid enough to fall for it.

“Also...” His lips curled up with indescribable delight. “I liked it when you called me husband.”

Irene was speechless with embarrassment.

"Actually, I...”

She tried to explain, but Isaac put a finger on her lips. Shush. I like it when you do that.” Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

She was being mean to another woman for him, and it pleased him to see that.

Irene looked at him. “I want a family for Tommy.”

Isaac’s smile stiffened and slowly faded—she did that for their son? Not because she loved him?

“Irene,” he said quietly—had he not been clear about his own feelings? Or maybe she had a heart of stone?

Noticing that he was upset, Irene asked tentatively, What's wrong? Are you upset?”

Isaac didn’t answer, and instead pulled her to himself so that she was leaning completely against him! With just the fabric of their clothing between them, Irene actually felt his scalding warmth.

Suddenly feeling a dryness in her throat, she couldn't help gulping as her heart pounded.

Putting both hands against his chest, she whispered, ”

You're holding me too tight. I can’t breathe...”

Isaac didn't stop despite her words, and instead tightened his hold— Irene had to stand on her toes to be able to breathe.

Their dank, warm breaths were tangled, swirling around each other. “Can't you fall for me?” Isaac asked quietly.

“I can,” Irene answered quickly, inadvertently telling him her truest thoughts.

Pursing her lips, she said, “I... No, I mean, I want to stay with you, not just because you're Tommy's father, but... because I have feelings for you too.”

“Really?” Her answer left him overjoyed.

She had feelings for him... Did that mean she loved him?
