The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 226

Chapter 226

Henry had boarded the cargo ship at some point in time, and bellowed at Robin, stopping her just as she was about to hit Irene.

When Robin turned and saw him, she remembered how respectful Ian was around him.

Knowing who he was, she refrained from hitting Irene, and gingerly retreated behind Ian.

As Henry walked toward them on his crutch, he growled at Ian, “Come with me.”

Ian naturally could not refuse his elder, but before he left, he gestured for his crew to keep Irene under their custody and prevent her escape.

Once they were gone, the crew took her to another

container.

As they stepped inside Ian’s office, Henry gave him a look and said, “Release Irene and her child now. There is still time-”

“Time for what, Grandfather?” Ian asked in return, cutting him short.

Then, before Henry could answer, he said, “Do you think

you could convince Isaac to step down?”

Henry’s expression darkened. “Let them go, and I’ll be able to do it. He’ll respect me as long as I’m alive.”

Naturally, Ian refused. “I’m your grandson, and my father’s your son! But you gave everything to Isaac because he’s your favorite! My grievance, and the conflict in the family, is all because of you!”

Moneypenny could not stop himself just then. “Master Jefferson did so because your mother-”

“Stop,” Henry growled, stopping him just in time. “Since you’re being so obstinate, I have nothing to say to you. You’ll be solely responsible for what’s coming to you now.

“Of course I will!” Ian certainly knew what he was doing, and the outcome was naturally his to bear.
