The Runaway Groom
Putting down her glass and walking over to Isaac, Irene took the dirty pants off his hands and put it
back in the bag before looking up at him.
“Why are you always so paranoid, Isaac?” she asked, and pointed at the back. “I’m on my period and I
stained my pants. That’s why I got changed—or did you think I was hiding something?”
Isaac actually thought that was the case.
Her behavior today was certainly too peculiar, which made his imagination run wild!
Still, Irene wrapped her arms around his waist and put her face against his chest. “So you do get
childish. It’s just my period—I’m distracted today because of that. Don’t worry.”
“Yeah,” Isaac murmured softly.
But was he really just being paranoid?
“Get home soon and rest,” he then added, gently patting her on the back. “I still have stuff to do. I’ll
head home once I’m done.”
Irene purred even as she held tightly onto him, kissing his neck and Adam’s apple. “I want you to take
me home.”
Isaac smiled, feeling at once enfeebled yet needed. “Okay.”
Irene smiled too—she could not care what others would say, or that they were in his office.
She simply kept her hands around him, refusing to let go.
It was unprecedented, but she was really clingy today.
“Aren’t you worried that everyone else in the building would accuse you of bewitching me with your
good looks?” Isaac asked.
Irene certainly did not seem to care. “You already embarrassed me so much last time I was here. Why
would I be worried?”
Isaac put a hand around her shoulder. “Fair enough. I have nothing to worry about since you’re not.”
She giggled as they left Isaac’s office together.
“Mr. Jefferson,” an employee greeted them, and Isaac nodded slightly at him.
Irene had been acquainted with everyone when she last visited, so they recognized her as well.
And since she gave the impression that she was clingy before, none of them were surprised—if
anything, they envied her inwardly for her pretty cheeks and good fortune.
Which in turn ensured her a life of riches and glamor!
Ding—
The elevator arrived downstairs, and they both stepped out.
When Irene saw the front desk receptionist, she told Isaac, “She lent me her skirt. Everyone here is so
nice.”
As Isaac looked up at the front desk, the receptionist smiled in greeting. “Mr. Jefferson, Mrs. Jefferson.”
“I’ll tell Finance to give you a raise,” Isaac said.
The receptionist was at first stunned, and she quickly thanked him when she came to a realization.
“Thank my wife. She’s in a good mood because of you,” Isaac told her.
As the receptionist got a little embarrassed, Irene smiled at her. “Do your best!”
“I will,” the receptionist said determinedly.
Once they were outside, Isaac said, “You’re a real boss lady now, the way you’re encouraging
employees.”
Irene nudged him with her elbow. “Is teasing me that fun?”
“Yes,” Isaac replied.
Irene’s car was just ahead, and she said, “This will do.”
“I’m going home with you.”
Irene shook her head. “No, I was just playing with you—go back to work, but come home earlier.”
“Okay,” Isaac said, and walked her to her car.
Irene waved him goodbye, and told Eagle, “Let’s go home.”
However, as he drove off and Isaac returned inside the building, she told Eagle, “Wait. Let’s go to the
hospital instead.”
Eagle frowned. “Neil Turner is going to hound you when he sees you, ma’am.”
“Not that one,” Irene said.
“Which one, then?”
“Any would do. Check if there are any hospitals nearby,” she said softly, suddenly appearing tired as
she reclined against her seat.
Eagle tapped on the GPS system in the car, but the nearest one was quite far.
Still, seeing Irene was tired, he did not ask any questions and drove straight there.
It was after a long while that the car stopped and Irene alighted.
“Don’t tell anyone you brought me here,” she told Eagle.
“Yes, ma’am,” he replied.
With that, Irene headed inside…
