The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 276

Kathy’s doctor asked, “Who’s she to you?”

Irene actually did not hear the doctor, because what she

read was too shocking!

They actually checked her for that?!

“When was she admitted? Who brought her in?” she asked, when she eventually looked up.

“Just today,” the doctor replied. “Kathy York, was it? She was brought in by this heartthrob -I heard he’s the CEO

of Sky Group and the most eligible bachelor in the city. Her clothes were in pieces, and there were clear signs of foul play.”

Irene was disgusted, and hid her lips behind her hand as

she retched.

“Are you alright?” the doctor asked in concern.

“I’m fine, thanks for asking.” Irene waved it off, and

returned the clipboard to the doctor.

“It’s nothing,” the doctor said.

“Next dinner is my treat,” Irene added.

“Thanks,” the doctor smiled.

Once again, Irene avoided meeting Kathy at her ward, because her mind was a mess at the moment.

She didn’t want to doubt Isaac, but she did ask, and he didn’t tell her that he was the one who sent Kathy to this hospital, even getting her checked.

Why would he bring her here if he wasn’t involved?

She did not want to be paranoid, but she had to give the

mountain of evidence.

The fact that a man and a woman going to the hospital together would already be giving cause for the mind to

wonder.

And given what Kathy was tested for…

Irene closed her eyes to restrain her churning emotions and compose herself.

Still, even as she stood at the entrance of the hospital, she felt as if her legs were jelly and had lost all strength, unable to stand straight.

Jimmy the chauffeur came to assist her to the car. “Are you feeling ill, ma’am?”

Irene shook her head. “I’m fine. Also, don’t tell anyone. that I’ve been here, understand?”

“Yes, ma’am.” Jimmy replied.

Taking a deep breath to steel herself, she said, “Let’s go

home.”

On the way home, she worked hard to relax her body and expression, and managed to calm down by the time they

returned to Rose Garden.

After Jimmy parked the car, she got off herself and said, ” Please don’t forget what I’ve said.”

“Of course,” Jimmy said.

Irene nodded in satisfaction and headed inside.

The interior was quiet, and she headed to the master bedroom, which was duly lit.

She could see Isaac’s slender figure, arching his back slightly as he leaned against his pillow, seemingly asleep with Tommy in his arms. From her perspective, it looked as if their baby was embedded in him.

Entering and sitting beside him, she watched Tommy quietly, though the dull glow meant she could not see his

little face clearly.

She reached out to stroke his cheeks–it was smooth and

tender to the touch, and the sensation on her fingertips. leaves her heart skipping a beat.

Her child.

The apple of her eye.

“What are you looking at?” A quiet voice spoke then, and she looked up to see that Isaac had opened his eyes, watching her.

She did her best to keep her voice calm. “You’re awake.”

Isaac held out a hand. “Come.”

Irene did not take it, and instead rose to her feet with a smile. “I need a bath. You should sleep.”

With that, she headed to the washroom.
