The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 355

Chapter 355

Irene could hear Lindsay, but she did not turn around or respond.

However, Lindsay knew that her secret was out and that Irene knew who she was, so she simply gave up on pretending. “I know it’s you, Irene Spencer–I’ve been careless. I should have recognized your voice, but I only caught on when I saw you checking my underarm.”

Irene finally turned around just then, and asked, “You know me?”

“There’s no need to hide now. We both know what’s going on. Don’t you think we should talk?”

Irene stared at Whitney, suddenly unsure what she was up to. “What do you want?”

“I just wanted to talk, but if you don’t want to, fine.”

Whitney turned and started to leave, but Irene stopped her, and they headed to the staircase.

“I never expected that it’d be you who found out first, Whitney said as she stared at Irene. “Isaac

Jefferson tried to kill me because of you. Don’t you think I deserve to hold a grudge?”

“You deserved it. Do you still not understand what you’ve done? You are the reason I lost a child, and as the father, Isaac definitely wants you dead. He’d be unfitting as a father if he is unmoved.”

Whitney narrowed her eyes. “He knows.”

“Of course,” Irene replied.

Whitney clenched her hand and relaxed, but her heart was ablaze with spite and jealous. “That’s why he was being so protective, shielding you from that blast.”

Irene laughed. “Of course. He has been so sweet, not to mention that he outshines Chad in every way You know that, don’t you? Not only would he shield me from that bomb, but he was willing to die doing it. You can try something else if you don’t believe me.”

She was deliberately provoking Whitney, but Whitney sharply noticed that Irene was trying to trick a confession out of her, and she quickly said, “What bomb? I don’t know what you’re talking about.” “You know Isaac was hurt from a blast. What, are you saying that you’re not the one who planted the bomb?”
