The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 199

Chapter 199

Isaac always carried himself as if he was above the rest. Stalking a married woman cheapened him! It definitely would not be him!

As for Chad, who was Irene’s prime suspect, she believed that they had no feud.

Moreover, Chad himself said that he wanted to get back at Isaac for driving Whitney to her death, and would use her to that end.

She laughed bitterly at the thought–Isaac had already divorced her, and found himself a new lover. If Chad wanted revenge, he should be abducting Kathy instead.

Why her?

She looked around, studying the whole room, but did not recognize it as she had long since forgotten about it.

The curtains were left open with a foot wide gap, and light was spilling in, illuminating the room. She blinked, suddenly not interested in moving while feeling dryness in her entire mouth!

She closed herself to sleep–maybe she would not be that thirsty afterwards.

Still, it took her a long while to doze off!

When she finally opened her eyes again, she picked up the scent of food and spotted the confectionery on the table nearby. The exquisite appearance alone was mouthwatering, and it only tempted a famished person like her further.

Her lips parted, and she found the insides of her mouth sticky–she would rather drink than eat at the moment, but she was definitely hungry too.

Also, the confectionery was not there when she woke up just now. Whoever brought it must have done so after she fell asleep.

Was it bait? Could it be poison?

Why else would they make her starve, and suddenly put food there?

She turned around despite much difficulty–out of sight, out of mind.

But she was certainly suffering! Was anyone ever coming to save her?

Meanwhile, Isaac was watching her every move from the living room.

Her lips were dried and she looked withered.

It hurt Isaac to see her like that, but he steeled himself and closed his laptop so that he did not have to.
