The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 83

Chapter 83

Irene, however, knew that Harvey actually meant that the woman would be keeping an eye on them instead of taking care of them.

Still, she kept that in mind without exposing him–it was understandable for Harvey to do that.

Then, giving Irene a look, Harvey asked, “I‘m actually curious about your relationship with Isaac Jefferson. Would you mind telling me?”

Irene chomped on a muffin before saying, “We‘re married.”

Harvey was speechless, his jaw almost dropping off right then.

“What?!” he exclaimed, unable to believe his ears. “Come on, you can do better than that! Everyone knows that he‘s single, and you‘re saying you two are married? You‘re kidding!”

It was natural for Harvey to doubt her, and he was convinced that she was using Isaac to stop him from having any funny ideas.

Still, Irene calmly looked up at him. “I‘m not lying. He wants revenge—that‘s why he‘s hunting me down.”

“Revenge against you?” Harvey appeared interested just then. “Do tell.”

“Our marriage is hidden, so not many know about it, and it‘s understandable for you to doubt me. Anyway, I‘m running away because I cheated on Isaac, and now pregnant with someone else‘s child. Naturally, there‘s no way he could live with that, so he‘s hunting me down now,”

Harvey was laughing out loud even before Irene could finish.

The indomitable Isaac Jefferson a cuckold?

He did not hesitate to flash her a thumb up. “Well done.”

Now, he was quite impressed with her–he was not the only one who kept losing to Irene, but Isaac was too!

He really wanted to laugh so hard right then.

Irene gave him a cool look. “Are you really that happy about that?”
