The Runaway Groom
Chapter 952

Before Zachary could react, the man continued pompously on the other end, "Not coming, are you? Just give us an address, and we'll send you one of his legs. How about that?"

“Lay a finger on him, and I'll cut you into pieces!" Zachary bellowed. "Oh, really?" The man laughed smugly. "Why do I doubt that? Come to us if you dare—I'll wait.”

Zachary was at once stumped!

He quickly hung up and set his phone to airplane mode in fear that the gang would trace his signal here.

It was obvious that those gang members were serial criminals, and that meant they were capable of anything!

And now, they had James!

He paced around anxiously.

What should they do? How were they going to save James?

Still, she soon remembered that Isaac was the smartest among them, and they would need him to make the call.

However...

Zachary glanced at his bedroom then.

Irene was shot, and although he got the bullet out, she needed time to recover.

Isaac was blind.

And Stan left to get a doctor and was not back yet. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ (ꜰind)ɴʘvel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Moreover, after searching for Isaac for days, they did not really get any real meals.

But James's situation could not wait!

In the end, he walked up and knocked on Isaac's bedroom door.

He heard movement inside, and the door was soon opened.

Isaac was standing at the doorway and holding out a hand.

Zachary quickly understood and offered Isaac his arm, while Isaac said flatly, "Let's get to the study.”

Zahary nodded, but on the way there, he could not stop himself from saying, "James is in trouble.”

Isaac's expression changed ever so slightly, though he soon regained his calm.

It was a taboo to lose composure in the face of adversity!

However, Zachary was hardly calm. "They're threatening to hack off his leg. What should we do? Do you think they'll really do it?"

"Why are you panicking?" Isaac growled.

Zachary turned silent and studied Isaac gingerly for a moment. "Do you think it's a bluff?"

“Not really," Isaac replied.

Zachary was left speechless for a moment and exclaimed, "Well, aren't you worried?"

"Would that help?" Isaac asked in return.

Zachary was left speechless right then, but he soon cried, "We should come up with a plan, at least!"

In reality, Isaac was anxious since not only did that gang prove themselves deadly, but they were also prepared to die for their cause. But Zachary yapping around him only left him irritated. Isaacgrowled impatiently, "Why don't you do it?!"

Zachary turned silent for good then.

Helping Isaac to a chair in his study, Zachary said, "Here, sit."

He still stayed silent, up until Stan returned to the castle with a doctor. "You should get checked too," Zachary said.

"Fine. Now, leave," Isaac replied—Zachary was too antsy and getting on his nerves.

Zachary said nothing and merely clapped Stan on the shoulder when he was walking past. "Someone must stay here, and that means you. I think Isaac is annoyed with me now."

"Me too," Stan said.

"F*ck off," Zachary snapped, giving him a nudge in the rump with his foot. “I'm in a bad mood. Don't joke around.”

Stan looked at Zachary then and saw no mirth in Zachary's eyes at all. Composing himself, he replied, "Got it."

Zachary closed the door behind him as he left, while Stan told the doctor, "Please take a look at him, doctor.”

The doctor put down his briefcase and got some tools from inside. He then made sure he set the breiface so that it would not fall before getting to work.

As he examined Isaac, he asked, "What caused your blindness?"

“I had a fall,” Isaac replied.

"Oh," the doctor replied. "It's an external factor, and it should be treatable.”
