The Runaway Groom Chapter 229
As Irene followed Isaac out of the container, Ian rushed to the scene, having heard the commotion.
He glowered when he saw that Isaac had saved his wife and child. “How did you get here?”
He was convinced that Isaac would never find this place— he was too used to Stan’s style in reconnaissance, which had helped him elude them thus far.
That naturally left him confused–if he had managed to stay out of Stan’s range, how did they get here?!
Robin remembered something then, and turned toward Irene. “It was you, wasn’t it? You were fiddling with your phone on the way here. Did you leak our location?”
Ian snarled right then, “You ruined all my hard work!”
“Hard work?” Irene glared at him icily. “You deserve what’s coming at you for all that you’ve done!”
Robin realized that she had ruined Ian’s plan, and felt sorry for him while she glared at Irene with spite. If she had not naively believed Irene and gotten exploited as a result, Ian’s plan would not have fallen through, and his
casino would not have been exposed!
She clenched her fist.
On the other hand, Ian was not giving in despite the circumstances he certainly did not think that he had lost.
He could still turn this around!
“It’s too early to think that you’ve won.” He raised his chin proudly.
Isaac kept one hand around Irene as he straightened. His shadow extended over the deck, magnifying his sinister presence.
“Whatever you say. I’ll just mind my own business,” he growled. “Stan Hill.”
Stan quickly walked up to him. “Yes, Mr. Jefferson?”
“That man who touched my wife–feed him to the fishes.
Isaac’s tone and visage was icy, while Stan understood his orders right away.
The crew leader was too hurt to stand, and had to be dragged out of the container.
