The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 175

Chapter 175

Irene decided that she could not sit and wait!

As Henry left for Ian’s home, Irene left Jefferson Manor, though she lingered at the gates, wondering as to who would want to abduct her baby…

Bzzt-

Her phone suddenly rang.

When she answered, Sheryl was crying urgently from the other end. “Irene? Please come home quickly!”

“What’s wrong?” Irene asked.

“It’s the people who took Tommy. They’re asking for you!”

Irene became spirited the instant she heard that there was a clue about Tommy’s whereabouts.

“I’ll be there as soon as I can,” she replied, and quickly used her phone to summon a taxi.

That was when a car drove up to Jefferson Manor.

Stan alighted, but averted his eyes when he saw Irene.

For her part, she was actually confused why he would come at this hour. “Why are you here?” she asked.

“There’s something I have to get,” Stan replied, and headed into the manor.

Irene did not press the subject since she could not spare a thought for anything but Tommy- nothing was more important than her baby.

Still, Stan soon stepped out with a chest, and Irene remembered seeing it.

Henry had also told her that before that the chest was very precious to Isaac.

“Why are you taking that?” she asked in curiosity.

“Mr. Jefferson told me to get it and give it to Kathy York,” Stan admitted.

Irene did a double take, and asked, “Isn’t it supposed to be very precious to him?”

Stan appeared afraid to look into Irene’s eyes. “It’s just an object, no matter how precious it is. Also, I don’t think I’ll be visiting your company from now on–you should consult someone else if you need help.”
