The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 98

Chapter 98

Irene was frowning because Harvey was the one who had sent her the invitation to an art exhibition he was organizing!

What was his purpose? What did he want?

She could not tell.

“What‘s on your mind?” Isaac asked as he entered to find her pensive with a card in her hand. Holding out his hand, he asked, “What is that?”

Irene passed it to him nonchalantly. “Courtesy of Harvey Gooding.”

Isaac frowned at the mention of the name, and after reading it, he asked, “Are you going?”

Initially, Irene had no such intention since she was not as friendly with Harvey as she would like to think

However, to disgust Isaac and make him willing to divorce her, she said, “Yeah.”

Isaac pursed her lips. He had no idea what Irene was thinking, but he certainly did not want her to go–not after Harvey tried to claim her for himself on more than one occasion.

Moreover, the man was hardly cultured even if he graduated from a famous university. He would not even be able to tell between Monet and Manet! The art exhibition was planned with ulterior motives in the first place. “You should be resting as per your postpartum care routine.” He tried to come up with an excuse.

“I‘m going,” Irene insisted.

The more he did not want her to do it, the more eager she would be to do it just to upset him.

If he demanded black, she would take white!

In the end, she understood very well that as long as he refused to divorce her, she would never feel peace even if she escaped. There was every chance that he could capture her again, not to mention she could not run away with a broken foot even if she wanted to–his vigilance was simply overkill. The only thing she could do to lead a peaceful life was to make Isaac let her go on his own accord

It was no exaggeration to say that she was convinced he was nuts-he was unhappy with their marriage in the first place, so why was he so obsessed to hold on to it now?
