The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 888

Irene smiled. "Thank you."

She was grateful that the patient's parents would offer such blessings.

Living long could become a double-edged sword, but she really hoped that she and Isaac could stay together for that long.

Still, Finn could tell that Irene was not used to this. He told the patient's parents, "Well, you've met her now. We should go if there's nothing else."

"Of course, of course," the couple replied, and the father did not forget to tell Irene before they left, "You're the best doctor I've ever met."

The best doctor?

Irene was actually emotional from that, and felt for an instant that it was all worth it.

Still, she was left staring at the scroll in her hand as they headed off into the distance. She asked Isaac, "What do I do with this?"

"Hang it up, of course," Isaac replied. "It's a token of honor."

Irene looked up into his eyes. "You're not mocking me, are you?"

"Of course not," he said, putting a hand around her shoulder. "I'm proud of you."

"Really?" Irene never knew he took pride in her career.

Isaac frowned. "Are you doubting me?"

Irene was speechless. Could she say yes?

She certainly did not dare to say it!

"No, of course not," she said.

"Alright, let's go in already!"

"But what about this?" Irene asked. "Do I leave it in the car?"

As she spoke, she turned to open the car door, but Isaac stopped her. "Hold on to it."

"For what?" she asked, puzzled.

"Hang it in my office since you have no place to put it." Isaac grinned.

Irene was speechless again. It would stick out like a sore thumb against the decor of his office!

It would be hilarious if he hung it there!

Certainly not wanting that, she quickly put it in the car—there was no telling what Twinrise employees would think if they saw it!

However, she just did not know that Tina, the front desk receptionist, saw what was happening outside, took a photo, and sent it to her colleagues' chat group.

Everyone there was a Twinrise employee, and they were left guessing what Irene's job was after seeing it.

Someone even typed: [Could it be just for show? Is Mr. Jefferson being tricked? What even is her job, where someone would give her a scroll outside our office? Isn't that just weird?]
