The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 827

"There's a misunderstanding," Irene reasoned. "I just want to meet you to explain—"

"You actually have something to say? Weren't you eager to hide from me? Even sicking your man on me? Now you're finally eager to talk after I sued you?! I'll make it very clear—I won't settle!"

Irene stayed calm even though Neil was bellowing at her. "I don't need your forgiveness, because I'm not hurting anyone. I wanted to save your father, which was why, under the circumstances—"

"Don't tell me. Tell the judge, and see if what you did was up to regulation!" Neil growled and added, "And don't call me again, or I'll sue you for harassment too!"

Irene certainly did not expect Neil to go that far!

Even as she sighed to herself inwardly, she said, "Your father is a medical researcher, and you should know why his research centers around the heart. He wants to save more people, or would you want to see him die because of heart failure? I broke regulations, but I saved your father. He would be dead if not for me—"

Beep, beep…

Neil hung up on her again.

Irene flung her phone on the seat, and rubbed her temples that were aching terribly!

Eagle turned to glance at her. "Can I help?"

However, Irene thought that Eagle actually would not be useful in this situation, and said, "No, it's alright."

"Just tell me who you want to meet. I'll bring them to you," Eagle told her.

Irene laughed in amusement. "Abduction is illegal. He already sued me, and that would just give him another cause to sue me."

"Itches fades when you get used to it." Eagle said.

Irene was speechless. Was that actually a good piece of advice or a bad one?

It felt to her like it was the latter.

"You're feeling a bit of schadenfreude, huh?" Irene asked, staring at him.

"No, ma'am," Eagle quickly explained. "I just wanted to help you."

Irene smiled. "I was just teasing you."

Eagle was speechless.
