The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 174

Chapter 174

Irene doubted that. Moneypenny clearly stated that Henry was behind everything.

Keeping herself as calm as possible, she said, “Tommy is Isaac’s son. Do a paternity test if you doubt me.”

Henry frowned, appearing doubtful. “What?”

“My child is Isaac’s too.” Irene snarled every word.

Henry almost slipped just then-a servant reacted quickly to catch to stop him from falling.

“Go! Get me Moneypenny right now!” he barked.

“Yes, sir.” The servant promptly left to look for the butler as soon as he helped Henry to a chair.

Irene was actually confused just then. “You… didn’t take my child?”

“Why would I lie to you?” Henry retorted. “Yes, I was hoping you’d get Isaac to fall for Kathy York, but I didn’t know about your child. Hell, I would’ve taken the boy away from you at the mansion when we ran into you last time–even after all that has happened, I’m not that cold that I’d forget the fact that your grandfather saved me.”

Irene was still doubtful, however. “Then why would Moneypenny take away Tommy, while acting as if it was your orders?”

Suddenly, the servant who left to find Moneypenny ran back into the room, exclaiming, “I’m sorry, sir, but Moneypenny has gone missing!”

“What?!” Henry sprang to his feet, losing his composure right then. “Then, start looking!” Irene’s face turned ashen in fear, and she stumbled backwards, almost falling over.

If Henry did not know as well… then her child was in grave danger!

This would not do! She must look for them!

But just as she made to leave, Henry called out, “Where are you going? You don’t even know where they are!”

Irene could not help yelling, “What, am I supposed to wait here?!”

Henry might be old, but he was far from senile–he doubt that Moneypenny would betray him.

Something sinister was afoot!

“Give me time. I’ll have my people look for him,” Henry told her.

Irene could not calm down, let alone stay there and wait.

“I’ll help with the search!”
