The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 883

Irene's words came out of the blue, leaving everyone thinking that she thought badly of them.

"How could you say that, Director Spencer?"

"We heard from Finn that you want to leave, but we're really reluctant to see you go. The time we shared was neither brief nor long, but we could see your character and came to acknowledge you…"

"That's right, Director Spencer. Don't think that badly of us," Yolanda King chimed in.

"Really?" Irene raised a brow. "If my memory serves me right, you were the one who harassed me the most."

Yolanda was left awkwardly speechless, but she had certainly bullied Irene a lot.

Still, Irene smiled just then. "It's just a joke. Come on, everyone. Be seated."

Everyone did so, and the table that was full of people was quite lively.

Eventually, Yolanda asked, "Are you really leaving, Director Spencer?"

Irene nodded. "Yeah."

"Why? We were getting along!" Yolanda exclaimed.

"Yeah."

"She's right."

Everyone agreed.

Irene took a deep breath. How was she supposed to answer them?

Nonetheless, she began, "Women more or less have to start thinking about their family once they get married—"

Someone butted in before she could finish, "Is your husband forbidding you from working?"

Everyone else turned toward the one who said it, leaving him dumbfounded. "What are you looking at me for? Am I wrong?"

They all shook their heads at the first time—it was on their minds too.

"Nope."

"That's a good question."

Irene said sternly just then, "We're talking about us. Please don't keep mentioning my family."

"Then why are you resigning? We can all tell you love this job," Finn pointed out.

Irene cleared her throat. "Why do I feel like I'm being interrogated?"

"No, we just want to know your reasoning. We're all just starting to get familiar and accepting each other, so why leave now?"
