The Runaway Groom

Chapter 756

Chapter 756

Isaac already had a feeling that things would be terrible, but hearing Irene say it left his eyebrow twitching and his

expression darkened.

He was furious because those men had been after Irene, and how thoroughly depraved it was!

'Can you resign?"

Irene did a double take-she did not expect that from him at all, and was left a little confused. "W-Why?” "If you

didn't take the job, I could have moved to Franconia with you. I've already arranged everything, and this would

never have happened. I can give you everything I have-" "You think this was my fault?!" Irene was flustered, glaring

at him just then. ’ I admit that I was the cause for Erin's suffering, but... you're blaming me too?!"

Isaac was silent for a while. "Calm down..." "Calm down? How am I supposed to calm down?!"

She raised her voice for a moment, and realizing her agitation and that this was not the place for it, lowered her

voice again. "I’m hurting, and you're telling me it’s because of me? Do you understand how much it hurts?" 'Then

would you know how I'd feel if it happened to you? You didn't actually escape-someone took the bullet for you, and

you're still being stubborn about this?"

Isaac still felt fear even after finding out the truth.

It was already a close shave with Harvey, and now this?!

Irene stared blankly at him.

She turned quiet.

Isaac spoke reason, but he was not completely right.

She certainly knew that she was inextricably responsible for this, even unforgivable!

She thought she knew him. But she really did not!

"Is that how you see it? That I’m working because I’m stubborn?" "Even if it wasn't, you're married now. Having a

dream and trying to realize it is good, just like everyone else who wants a successful career, but shouldn't you think

about your family too?"

Irene pursed her lips. "So I should give up on my career because I'm married? So being with you just means that I

would be shackled? Then what is the point of marriage?!" "Please, stop."

That was when the door to Erin's ward suddenly swung open and she appeared at the doorway.

Her face and eyes were red and swollen from too much crying.

Irene realized then that she should not have argued with Isaac outside her ward-they woke her now.

"Sorry." She felt guilty and annoyed.

Right now, Erin should be comforted and protected, and yet here she was, arguing over her own family affairs with

Isaac.

Not only was their timing horrible, but they should not have done it at all!

"I'll help you back inside," Irene said, walking up to her.

However, Erin held her gaze and refused to budge. "You were arguing because of me, right? If that's so, I really

hope you'd stop." "No, it’s not you." Irene explained. "It's our personal issues."

She helped Erin return to bed, closing the door behind her and asking softly, "Are you hungry? I can get you

something to eat."

Erin shook her head.

After crying to vent her feelings for an entire night, she calmed down slightly now.

She held Irene's gaze. "Do you think... James would still marry me?"
