The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 493

Chapter 493

Moneypenny's voice was very soft as he whispered to Henry, and he was sliding peeks at Robin as she remained on the ground.

"Sir, you're just upset because Master Ian is one of your grandsons, but he did murder Irene Spencer."

In other words, he was saying that Isaac would never forgive Ian, and now, they had no leverage or ability to fight Isaac.

"But as long as he leaves a seed, he's not gone forever," Moneypenny finished.

Henry quickly understood what he meant.

Turning to look at Robin and thinking about it briefly, he soon said, "Well, that's an idea."

To assure him further, Moneypenny added, "Master Greg's line will not be snuffed so soon, anyway. Even if something were to happen to Master Ian, his father still lives-he's lost the function of his legs, but that doesn't mean he's lost all functions below the waist."

Henry’s wrinkled eyelids twitched. "Sly old fox."

"Well, is there a reason it wouldn't work?" Moneypenny asked as he helped him stand.

Henry considered it, but Moneypenny was right-his grandson was gone, but his son was still alive.

Even if Isaac now had a stranglehold over the Jefferson family estate, they were still not poor enough to need alms.

A starving elephant would still outmatch a lion!

They still retained a considerable fortune to live grandly, and it was not that hard an issue to get Greg a woman.

Money talks, after all.

As for Ian, they could give up on him if things did not work out.

"What should we do?" Robin ran toward them just then, and tugged on Henry’s sleeve. "You have to save Ian!"

Henry traded glances with Moneypenny, and Moneypenny told her, "As you can see, Master Isaac isn't giving any quarter. There's nothing we can do."

Robin was desperate. "Are we supposed to just sit and watch Ian being locked up? He's still so young..."

Henry, however, had no patience for her complaints.

What good was crying? They would have gotten Ian out if they could.

But the reality was that they could not, and would crying change a thing?

What a waste of time!

He was going to let Moneypenny tell her, but since his butler was dawdling, he simply said, "If you care so much about him, are you willing to bear his child?"

Robin froze. What was that supposed to mean? How did it suddenly get to that?

"Shouldn't we be thinking about how to save Ian?" she asked.

"We can't get him out," Henry made it very clear. "But you should be able to make it inside..."

"W-What?" Robin's teary gaze showed both understanding and disbelief.

"You will go into his cell and get pregnant with his child. Then, I'll get you out."

Robin dropped limply to the ground. "W-We're not going to save him?"

Henry breathed a long sigh-it was not as if he did not want to do it, he just could not.

This was about the only thing he could manage.
