The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 82

Chapter 82

Irene saw Sheryl, and quickly turned to Harvey, who had returned as well.

Why was he doing this? Why did he bring her mother here?!

Even as her expression darkened, Sheryl hurried toward her. “Oh, Irene. This gentleman told me that he‘s your friend and was taking me to you. And you really are here!”

Irene smiled at her. “Could you go in first?”

Sheryl was puzzled, but nodded and entered the building.

After making sure that Sheryl was gone, Irene glowered at Harvey. “What is this? Why did you bring my mother here too?”

Harvey gave her a look. “I thought you‘re actually smart after all the times you escaped me. Why are you being so stupid now?”

“Who would know if you‘re really bearing ill will?” Irene was confused, but stared at him warily all the same since he had tried to mess with her so many times–he certainly was no angel.

Harvey‘s face turned cold right then. “You‘re looking a gift horse in the mouth!”

Irene sneered. “Are you saying you‘re being nice? Then why are you keeping me captive here?”

Harvey had no retort for that–she was right.

However, even if he could not have her, he would not allow Isaac to have her either.

“I was out clearing any traces of your presence today, in case Isaac comes looking for you. Aren‘t you afraid he would guess where you were, leaving your mother out there for him? That‘s why I‘ve been kind enough to bring her here to stay with you. Shouldn‘t you be thanking me instead?”

Irene naturally did not have that much imagination in her–she was too worried that Harvey would hurt her mother.

“Are you really that nice?” she asked suspiciously.
