The Runaway Groom
Chapter 959

Stan closed his eyes, afraid to look just then!

As Zachary pulled the zipper, the sound seemed so loud it was deafening!

Stan's lips were trembling, but he did not dare to make a sound.

At the same time, Zachary opened the zipper and forced himself to see what he did not want to see.

It was a leg, still soaked in blood.

Thankfully, it was not an entire corpse.

Zachary stared at it grimly.

On the other hand, Stan had not been hearing anything for a while, and he slowly opened his eyes!

He stumbled backward when he saw what it was.

However, he was not so faint-hearted that mere gore would scare him. He was afraid that it was James's leg!

"Our location is compromised,” Zachary said quietly then.

Stan nodded.

The gangsters obviously had their address. That was how they sent this here.

"Doesn't that mean everyone is in danger?" Stan asked. Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the FɪndNøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Zachary did not respond to that. "Check whose leg it is. I'll tell Isaac.” Stan nodded. "Okay."

In the castle, Irene could hear Erin sobbing on the couch when she entered, in shock that Isaac was blind.

She had presumed Irene meant that Isaac's eye was scarred or something along those lines. She did not expect him to lose his sight! "Don't worry. It's treatable,” Irene said, walking up to her and comforting her, patting her on the back. "See? That's why James and everyone didn't want to tell you. We're worried you'd take it badly.”

Erin wiped her eyes and tried to calm herself just then, and she turned to Isaac. "You should come to Minerva with me. They have the best optometrists over there, and we should be quick to make sure there are no lingering effects—"

Before Erin finished, Zachary rushed into the room, cutting her short. "Isaac." He panted, but seeing the others in the room, he walked up to Isaac and whispered to him, telling him what just happened.

Isaac's brow twitched. "Are you sure?"

“No, but isn't it obvious?" Zachary pointed out.

Irene glanced between them, knowing that they must be talking about the box.

“Tell Stan to find someone to check if it is," Isaac said.

“Yes, I'll do that,” Zachary replied. "But right now, we need to move. It isn't safe here.”

Isaac nodded. "Make preparations right away."

Zachary nodded and turned to leave, but he soon turned around and told Isaac quietly, "Any property under your name would be found easily. Stay at my place instead—I bought it years ago, and it's hard to trace.”

"Yeah," Isaac said softly and then said, "Irene? Let's go to our room." As he got up, Irene hurried to his side and helped him to his feet while turning to tell Erin, "Tommy misses you. It's been a while since you last saw him."

"Okay," Erin said, getting to her feet. "I'll go see him right now."

Once they were in their room, Irene quickly asked Isaac, "What's in the box?"

"A leg," Isaac replied.

Irene was left gaping and almost wobbled right then.

However, Isaac quickly told her, "Nothing's confirmed yet. Don't jump to conclusions!"

Irene composed herself then. "Well, what should we do now?"

"They sent the box right to our doorstep,” Isaac said. "That means they know where we are. We're not safe here.”

"Well, where should we go?" Irene asked.

"Zachary will make the arrangements.”

Irene nodded, but was feeling more uneasy by the second.

Her heart was pounding as she remembered that Erin was right outside, and that she had already been wounded thoroughly back at Zidonia. That incident cost her lively nature!

And now...

But she loved James so much!

"What if it really is James?" Irene murmured.

"Irene?"

The door suddenly opened!
