The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 806

James called out to Erin. "Hey."

It would have been better if he did not, as she quickened her pace when he did.

James quickly ran after her and caught her wrist. "Why are you running?"

His tone was relaxed and did not convey his frustration.

However, Erin did not feel the same.

She did not like James's touch because she considered herself filthy.

"Let me go!" she snapped, dead serious.

James refused. "I came all the way to see you. You'd hurt me if you still hid from me,"

He kept his tone as mild as possible so that Erin could let go of the past. "How about a movie tonight, seeing that I'm being sincere?"

Unmoved, Erin snapped coolly, "Let me go!"

James did not and kept smiling. "Whatever you say."

Unable to shake him off, Erin was almost hysterical, and leaned down to bite his hand so that he would let go.

He did not, even though she could taste blood.

In fact, he was looking at her determinedly. "That brings me back."

Erin then remembered her scuffle with James soon after they met, and it felt like ages ago!

However, she was much more rational these days, and certainly not as mean.

Looking into James's eyes, she said, "I'm not who I was…"

"You've never changed in my heart, and that will never change." James smiled, and started to gather into her arms.

Erin turned pale right then. "Don't touch me!"

She was so hysterical that James felt jolted, and he released her in reflex.

Her emotional outburst drew many stares, and unable to calm down, she started to run again.

James quickly gave chase when he came to his senses, but kept his distance this time without closing in recklessly.

He was relieved to see her run back to home.
