The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 828

Though Neil wanted to flip out again, he restrained himself because of the difference in strength between him and Eagle.

"You're good with arguing, aren't you? Now leave, or I'm calling the cops."

Eagle had more to say, but Irene stopped him.

If they kept this up, they would really start fighting—and she came to make peace, not to fight.

"He doesn't mean it. You should calm down and listen to me telling you what happened at the time—"

"What happened at the time was that you did not get our consent and you implanted an artificial heart still in its test face," Neil huffed. "And now my father is lying in the ICU, hanging by a thread—and you say you are trying to save my father? Did you really, now?!"

Irene was stumped.

Yes, she tried to save Dennis, but she did not.

Even if he was not dead, he might be soon!

Still, she looked Neil in the eye and said, "I did my best—"

"Don't bother!" Neil waved her off. "Leave, or I'm calling security!"

Irene stared at him, knowing that she had to leave with Eagle since she could not persuade Neil.

"Why is he being so unreasonable?" Eagle muttered.

Irene sighed. "No one would be able to stay calm if the same thing happens to their family. We can't blame him—it's just human nature."

They left the apartment block, with Irene standing outside the gates, feeling at a loss.

Eagle seemed to see her anxiety. "Should we tell Mr. Jefferson?"

Irene turned toward him, but she simply watched him in silence.

Eagle's heart was pounding. "Did I say something wrong?"

"No," Irene replied.

Now, it seemed that she must go to Isaac and ask for his help!

He would not be able to hide it anyway—there was a lawsuit now.

"It's procedure as a legal respondent to prepare my statement of defense in fifteen days, right?" she said self-deprecatingly. "I should prepare something now, shouldn't I?"

Eagle listened to her, but he remained quiet.
