The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 282

Chapter 282

Ricky asked, “What’s wrong?”

Irene had already sprung to her feet. “Look at the date-it’s today, and it starts at nine… but it’s 8:50 now! I won’t make it if I don’t go now. I should attend it too, since it must’ve been. hard to get this. I can’t miss it.”

“Thanks, Ricky,” Irene said, not forgetting to thank him as well.

“It’s nothing,” Ricky replied, watching her. “You’re my sister, after all.”

“I’ll treat you to a nice dinner next time,” she said as she reached the doorway. “Bye!”

Hurrying to Jimmy, she said, “Quick, take me to the Central Hospital.”

Although Jimmy started the car right away, he asked in curiosity, “Again?”

“Something came up,” Irene said patiently. “Hurry, or I’ll be late.”

“Okay,” Jimmy replied.

They arrived at 9:25, but when Irene reached the conference hall of the hospital, she found it empty.

Puzzled, she glanced at the address on the invitation, but she was at the right place….

So why was it empty?

She whipped out her phone to call Ricky, but that was when she picked up the faint scent of a drug. However, she was so accustomed to smelling it that she could not identify what it was…

When she realized what it was, her body was already losing strength.

Did she just fall for a trap?

“Jim-”

She was going to call for Jimmy, when someone clasped something over her mouth.

Turning around, she saw that it was Ricky, and her eyes widened in shock. “What are you. doing, Ricky?!”
