The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 898

Irene's heart was pounding. "What is it?"

"I'm going on a business trip," Isaac said as he put a slice of steak on her plate. "This one might take longer."

"How long?" Irene asked.

"Half a month," Isaac said, looking at her just then. "James found a good servant, and they will come by tomorrow…"

"You have nothing to worry about," Irene said, looking between Sheryl and Isaac. "I've resigned. I'll take care of things at home."

Isaac's expression clearly stiffened and he looked at her pointedly.

Before he could speak, Irene said, "I think I've really not spent any time with my children. I would like to take care of things at home now."

She always understood that Isaac had to bear with her a lot and had to work online most of the time.

He must have had to leave since one too many issues were piling for a while now.

"I can't help with your work, so I'll take care of things at home, so that you have nothing to worry about here."

Isaac slowly lowered his eyes but said nothing.

He knew that she was sacrificing her career.

Even so, Irene no longer felt any regret in this.

Every family should have someone taking care of the house.

For Sheryl, she supported both Irene's decision to work before and her decision to stay home now.

They had a big family, but it lacked warmth because Irene and Isaac often worked late.

Patting Irene on the shoulder, Sheryl said, "You can take care of Tommy from now on."

After all, Irene was Tommy's mother.

Moreover, she was already absent when Tommy was a baby, so she should not be absent for her second son as well. Even if she did check on the baby every day, she never really took care of him.

"Thanks, Mom." Irene nodded. "You've worked so hard."

She would never have been able to work without Sheryl, and caring for two children in Tommy and the baby must have been difficult.

Irene understood that, and she was therefore filled with gratitude.
