The Runaway Groom -
Chapter 1021
Zachary was a little emotional.
He never expected that James would replace his happiness after Isaac andIrene—especially when James constantly worked so hard.
And yet, James beat him in getting married.
Sighing again, he said, "Well, I guess I should send him somethingmemorable.”
"At least you have a conscience," Irene told him.
Zachary was left speechless—when did he become that horrible?"Am I that evil in your eyes?" he asked.
“You're not," Irene replied. "You're just not that nice either."
Zachary shot her a look.. "You're really getting cheeky after hooking upwith Isaac, huh?"
Irene promptly waved him off. "Pretend I said nothing."
Zachary snorted. "Save it. Make it up to me and have your son takeself-defense lessons to be my daughter's bodyguard later.”
Irene was left speechless.
Her son was precious too, please!
A bodyguard?!
"No way," Irene snapped, refusing to let her son do it—how far wouldhe get in life with that career?
Nearby, Eagle was left speechless and blinking innocently.
Was being a bodyguard that unglamorous?
Fine, it was the service industry and not at all ideal...
Irene headed inside the castle to replace Isaac standing by a window andspeaking over the phone.
She did not know who it was, but he hung up when she arrived.
"Who is it? Why did you hang up once I'm here?" she asked casually.Isaac looked up at her, and she walked up to wrap her hands aroundhis arm, smiling. "What, did I say something wrong?"
"When did you get so jealous?" Isaac asked, pinching her cheek.Irene tilted her head and kept thinking until she said seriously, "After Ifell in love with you?"
Isaac chuckled.
Everyone liked to be loved, and he was no exception.
Sitting down on the couch, he said, "It was James. I was just asking ifhe needed help with anything.”
They would need a lot of preparations for James's wedding, after all."What did he say?" Irene asked.
"Mick already helped out," Isaac said flatly.
Irene thought about it, but decided that there was no issue there—Mickonly had a daughter in Erin. Even if she was not his biological daughter,she might as well be since he raised her to adulthood, not to mentionthat she had been a good child to him.
Leaning on Isaac's shoulder, Irene asked, "I thought you're makingpreparations before heading over."
Isaac said, "Pierre already told the servants to pack up."
Irene was left in awe of the perks being rich—people really would geteverything done for you.
Tommy was beside himself with joy to hear that their parents werebringing him too, and he ran up to Irene happily. “Grandma told me thatwe are all going to Mr. Cross's wedding. Is that true?"
"Yeah!" Irene smiled.
Tommy threw himself into her arms, happily nuzzling against her whileIrene patted his head. "Are you really that happy?"
"Yes. I get to travel with Mommy and Daddy!" he exclaimed excitedly.“I'l go pack my clothes.”
As he rushed to his room, Irene was smiling at his happiness. "You didthe right thing.”
Isaac in turn put a hand around her shoulder. "Let's keep themcompany more from now on."
Irene nodded.
After all, she had resigned for her family and the children in the firstplace.
Naturally...
She turned toward Isaac then.
He was one of the reasons too.
That was when someone suddenly rushed into the room!
