The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 559

Chapter 559

Mrs. Watson replied, "I have.’

Irene nodded and got off the couch, carrying Tommy back to their room.

Mrs. Watson walked up to her, saying, "I can carry Tommy, ma'am."

Irene smiled. "It's fine."

Mrs. Watson naturally did not press the issue and instead asked, "Should I start unpacking the stuff on the table?"

Irene turned to look at everything on the table, and wondered if Isaac had really asked for it, or Debbie had decided it on her own.

Whichever it was, putting it away was better just to be safe.

"Just shelve it for now."

"It's all supplements, and you really need it right now... Debbie must have brought it because Mr. Jefferson told her, and leaving it here is a little wasteful..."

"Actually, getting too many supplements would be harmful instead," Irene told Mrs. Watson mildly. "Just shelve it for now."

"Yes, Mrs. Jefferson." Mrs. Watson did as she was told, while Irene returned to her room.

Tommy usually napped in the afternoon, and he was now getting drowsy.

He soon dozed off as Irene carried him around, patting him on the back a little.

While he was almost estranged from her, he did not reject her-he was even a little curious about her, the person who suddenly showed up in the house, and he was nice enough about it.

Irene got a little sleepy after coaxing him to sleep, and since she was frail after labor, she dozed off too.

There was no telling how long had passed when the door suddenly swung open.

Opening her eyes to find that it was Sheryl, Irene's mind cleared up a little as she sat up, asking softly, "Did you find him?"

"No." Sheryl kept her voice low as well, worried that she would wake Tommy. "The mansion was sold to someone else."

"What?!" Irene exclaimed in surprise. "But, how? I thought it was left under your name..."

"Everything your father left me was in the mansion. I only brought my clothes here," Sheryl said, appearing disappointed. "He must have stolen everything."

On the other hand, Irene was pensive.

Why would Ricky sell everything in the house for no reason?

And where was he? Why would he go missing?

As she pondered for a reason, she got to her feet. "I'm going out."

"Where do you think you're going? Everything is gone," Sheryl said as she caught her. "And you should be taking your time to rest."

Irene looked her in the eye right then. "I'm worried that something has happened to him. Did you know that Spencer Holdings went bankrupt too?"

Sheryl certainly had no idea-she basically never left this apartment ever since Isaac arranged for her to babysit Tommy here, and only stepped out to take Tommy on short strolls without going too far.

She did not have much in the way of human contact either, and therefore had no idea what was happening out there.

"How did that happen?"

"It's a long story," Irene did not go into detail, but it really would be horrific if Ricky really went missing just like Lulu did.

"But where are you even going to look? Isaac’s not around... Maybe you should call him?"

Irene understood that Sheryl was concerned, but Isaac had even more problems on his plate-calling him now might just get him distracted.

The food that Debbie brought was a point in case-she was worried about eating it, so she had Mrs. Watson shelved it for now.

While she could call Isaac about this and ask if Debbie did it under his instructions, she just did not want him to have to worry about home too.
