The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 919

Irene quickly and hastily treated her sprain before leaving.

Tommy ran up to her, hugging her leg. "Mommy, where are you going? Can't you play with me? This place is really fun. I really like it here!"

"Sorry, Mommy's busy," Irene said, tenderly petting his little head. "You stay here and listen to Grandma."

Tommy blinked at her. "Mommy…?"

Eagle came and scooped Tommy up in his arms. "I'll keep them safe, ma'am."

Irene certainly believed in Eagle and nodded. "I'm counting on you."

"It's what I should do," Eagle replied.

As Irene started down the stairs, Eagle called out to her again. "Ma'am…"

Irene turned. "Yeah?"

Eagle headed inside his room and brought her a bottle of ointment.

"People in my line of work always have some medication prepared. Just spray it on the affected area, and it will ease the swelling."

"Thank you," Irene said.

"You're welcome," Eagle replied.

James arrived just as Irene stepped out of the front door of the castle, and he took her straight to the airport.

Along the way, she told him, "Call me immediately if you have news on Isaac."

"I will," James replied.

Irene lowered her eyes then, which were filled with worry—both for Isaac and Lulu.

They waited for a while at the airport before the announcement to board her flight echoed on the public address system.

"Should I book your flight back too?" James asked.

Irene actually had no idea when she would return and so said, "I'll book it myself. You just focus on finding Isaac."

She needed a ride too, which was why she might as well ask James to book the ticket too.

Naturally, she did not need to bother him as well on the return flight.

"Okay," James replied, and she headed to departures.

As Lulu's gaze darkened, the obstetrician said, "Your delivery isn't going well. A C-section is safer."

Lulu, however, was staring blankly at the ceiling.

Martin was the best man she had ever met—she did not want to live if he died.

A tear trickled out of her eyes.

Martin was the one who brought light to her life again…

At the same time, the obstetrician urged Pippa to persuade Lulu, since Lulu's condition was serious.

"Look, Lulu—the doctors are doing their best to save Martin right now," Pippa told Lulu. "If something happens to the child when he recovers, he'll be miserable…"

Lulu flashed a bitter smile.

The child was not Martin's, and it would actually be humiliating to him if the child were born!

It should not have existed at all!

As such she refused to undergo the C-section, and she turned toward Pippa. "Please ask them how Martin's surgery is going… Please?"
