The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 826

Sheryl Harris passed her the letter. "Take a look at this."

Irene opened it, but she calmly said, "It's nothing. It's just an express parcel."

It was actually a court summons, but she stayed calm so as to not worry Sheryl.

She went upstairs, pausing halfway and turning to look at Sheryl. "Mom."

"Yeah?" Sheryl replied.

"Nothing. Just wanted to thank you. I wouldn't have so much freedom if you didn't take care of my children."

Sheryl rolled her eyes at Irene. "Why are you getting so polite?"

Irene pursed her lips. "I think I'll resign once I'm done with my present tasks."

Sheryl had been hoping that Irene would keep working, but she should not be meddling either.

"You can decide for yourself," she told Irene.

"Yeah," Irene replied before heading upstairs back to her room.

She sat on the couch, staring pensively at the books and the court summons nearby.

She was skeptical about her own decision for the very first time—she would be lying if she said that she was completely calm.

If anything, she would like to resolve the matter herself as soon as possible, since she did not want her family to worry.

After thinking about it considerably, she decided that she should meet and talk to Neil.

She just headed downstairs when Sheryl saw her and asked. "Leaving already? You just came home."

Irene said. "Yeah. I have something to do."

Sheryl nodded, but stopped Irene as she reached the door. "Irene, I'll support you in whatever decision you make."

Her family would always have her back.

Irene smiled. "I know."

"Now, go," Sheryl said, and returned to care for the children.
