The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 611

Chapter 611

Irene's eyes were red as she looked away from Isaac.

"It's nothing," she said, rubbing her eyes. "It's time for breakfast! Also, I've spoken to my mom, so she's not going to keep railing at you."

Isaac would tell her immediately if he knew anything, and he did not, so it must mean he did not have anything yet.

Isaac naturally knew what was bothering her, since he felt equally terrible as the missing child's father.

Mentioning it would just make them sad, and since Irene changed the subject, he played along and said, "James Cross has recovered. Let's visit him after breakfast."

Irene nodded. "Okay."

Isaac then got up and gathered her in his arms, offering a silence assurance.

Irene forced a smile.

"Let's eat. I'm hungry," she said, and pulled him out of the bedroom as she rambled on. "You must miss Tommy since you've been away, right? He's perked up now, but don't hug him so soon-it's bad since his rash hasn't faded completely..."

Isaac quietly listened, and Sheryl was there when they arrived at the living room. She spoke first, saying, "Tell me beforehand if anything like that happened again, so that I won't misunderstand."

"Yeah," Isaac replied. "Thank you for taking care of Irene and Tommy for me."

Sheryl cheered up at his words, her remaining grievances gone as she smiled. "Eat, or the food will get cold."

With that, she returned to Tommy's room to tend to the boy.

On the other hand, Irene was not feeling an appetite and was not moving despite all the good food Mrs. Watson prepared.

Isaac pushed a glass of milk up to her and told her with a commanding edge in his voice, "Eat."
