The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 127

Chapter 127

As Lionel stepped inside his ward, he told Samantha, “You can leave. I don’t need you here.”

Samantha quickly tried to appease him. “You can’t be alone, right? I’ll stay.”

However, Lionel had already seen through her and what she wanted.

“You just want my inheritance, don’t you?” he asked, exposing her right then.

“No!” Samantha quickly explained. “I’m fine without it, but you have to take care of Ricky. He has a criminal record, and there’s every chance he won’t get a good career. You have to think of him!”

Lionel was not bothered with her rant, and simply lay down in bed!

Was he that stupid that he would not look after his own son?

Meanwhile, Irene had left quietly, and Ricky followed her out of the building.

“Sis,” he called out to her.

Turning to look at him with an impassive expression, she asked, “What?”

“I heard that you’re the one who got a specialist to help Dad,” Ricky said earnestly, his .hostility toward her before nowhere to be seen. “Thank you.”

“You don’t have to thank me. He’s my father too,” Irene replied, and left.

They had nothing else to talk about anyway.

Back at Light Group’s offices, Isaac released the girl beside him the instant Irene turned around.

Her name was Kathy Young, and she was a secretary that Stan had hired for Isaac!

Naturally, Isaac had another secretary and did not need Kathy-in fact, Kathy was

incompetent and inexperienced, and had nothing going for her aside from a certification from a famous university.

Stan kept her just for her looks, and she was a good choice to make Irene jealous.

“Mr. Jefferson…”

She had felt despondent when Isaac removed his hand.

“Tell Stan Hill to come downstairs,” Isaac coolly told her, and strode away.

Kathy was puzzled – he was being intimate one moment, and icily distant the next. What was he thinking?

Still, she was new here and should not ask too many questions, and did as she was told. When Stan arrived downstairs, he walked up to Isaac’s car. “Yes, Mr. Jefferson?”

“She saw us, but she’s not upset. Does that mean he really doesn’t care about me?” Isaac asked him
