The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 997

Stan pretended to be absolutely afraid. "Okay, I won't move. Please don't hurt me."

Hector pulled off his face mask then.

"Piece of sh*t," he snapped at Stan in disdain, before walking up to Isaac's bed, watching him as he said, "Your lackeys are just so incompetent."

Isaac did not answer as he calmly opened his eyes.

His vision was still dark, but he could imagine how savage and smug Hector's face would look right then.

"How lucky can you get, surviving a plane crash?" Hector said as he pulled a chair over to sit beside Isaac's bed. "I wonder how you're going to escape now, what with your blindness and an incompetent subordinate."

Isaac remained nonchalant. "Do you think you can stop me if I want to leave?"

"Still talking tough in this situation?" Hector laughed and licked his parched lips. "I've lost my life's work because of you! I'll take you down with me even if it kills me, get it?!"

Isaac simply ignored him as if he had completely expected this.

After all, Hector had been biding his time, waiting for the chance to strike.

And Isaac gave him that chance!

Stan snorted coolly just then. "Business is war. You lack what it takes, and that's why you don't deserve anything."

Hector wheeled on Stan, narrowing his eyes.

"Don't you see what's going on here?! I have you! You've got some balls, yapping at me!" Hector barked and turned toward his lackey. "Lil'A, straighten him out! The adults are talking here!"

"Don't you get so smug, Isaac! What goes around always comes around!" Hector bellowed, his face contorting with hatred and savagery. "My only regret in life is not killing you with my bare hands!"

Isaac raised a brow nonchalantly. "Well, you're not doing it in this life. Even if I'll suffer for my actions as you put it, you're never living to see it."

Hector sprang to his feet, but before he could move further, the one aiming a gun on his head warned, "Not another move."

At the same time, he felt the barrel pressing deeper into his skin.

"Fine, I admit I was lacking, but I doubt you'd really kill me!"

Hector was aware that Isaac was ruthless and outstanding for a businessman, but he would never kill.

Isaac simply laughed. "Do I even have to?"
