The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 987

James shook his head. "No, it doesn't."

"You're lying," Erin snapped. Her heart could break just then.

Irene was a doctor, but she could not help much there.

They had already sent James to the hospital for treatment and checkup, and he just needed time to recover.

"Come on in," Irene urged Erin again.

James was still standing outside and talking to everyone when he could take the time to rest!

Erin nodded and gingerly helped James walk, though he felt reluctant but had no choice either, since she was really caring.

He was just a little not used to Erin treating him like a child, but she was hurt in her heart to notice James was uncomfortable.

After they got in their room, Erin had him get in bed.

He tried to make her sit, but she shook her head. "Just lie down and wait. I'm going to cook something for you in the kitchen, and get some ribs to make soup with—"

"Erin," he said, cutting her short.

He looked at her eyes, and seeing genuine concern as well as worry, he ultimately decided against being harsh and asked, "Why ribs? I prefer fish."

"Your bones were hurt, and they say that you recover the parts you eat," Erin said, blinking.

James was speechless, but had no argument there and nodded as he watched her naive expression. "Yeah. I'll make sure to have more."

Erin, however, saw that he was not lying down. "Aren't you going to sleep?"

"Can't right now," James replied.
