The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 254

Chapter 254

Irene’s question left Isaac Jefferson frowning–it seemed to come out of the blue.

Why suddenly mention Debbie? That change in conversation was too quick and too random.

“She’s just my secretary. Why did you ask that?” Isaac replied, realizing then that he had never observed Debbie.

Irene’s brow was wrinkled as she remembered what Debbie did with his desk. “I saw her in your office when I went there…”

There was an edge in her voice, but Isaac thought it was fine since Debbie entered his office from time to time while he was away. “So? What of it?”

Irene’s lips twitched–was she being paranoid?

But she clearly saw Debbie laying on Isaac’s desk, and what she did was…

Maybe she was imagining it?

But she clearly was not!

Still, Isaac’s permanent scowl turned to a smile. “Are you jealous, Irene? If you feel insecure that I have a woman working closely with me, I can get a change in personnel.”

Irene blinked. “You think I’m being jealous?”

“Aren’t you?” Isaac chuckled.

While Irene would admit that she was shocked to see what Debbie was doing and cringed at it, she wasn’t actually jealous. Moreover, she was doing it to herself while Isaac was not in the office!

“I’m not jealous.”

Isaac pulled her to him and gathered her in his arms. “Really? Hmm?

As he leaned in beside her ear, his dank, warm breath sprayed all over her ear. It tickled, so she shrunk into her shoulders and gave in. “Fine, I’m jealous, okay?”

Isaac gave her a peck on her cheek and nuzzled her ear. “Well, that’s just proof that you love me.”

His voice was a little quiet, and noticing that, she quickly said, “You hadn’t been eating, have you? I’ll go cook right now…”

With that, she pushed him away and headed to the kitchen. Mrs. Watson wasn’t here, so no one was cooking for them.
