The Runaway Groom

Chapter 191

Kathy, however, was still not giving up. “Your grandfather is asking us to go. He’s probably-”

She quickly gave chase and asked, “Why are you being so cold to me?”

Isaac wheeled on her, frowning. “What, giving you a job isn’t enough? Am I supposed to take care of you for the rest of your life now?”

Kathy was stumped for a moment, and she quickly explained, “No… I just heard from your grandfather that I saved you, and that’s why you had my silver crucifix. I remember saving a drowning boy as a child, too–aren’t you being a little cold to your savior?”

“Then what do you think I should do?” Isaac asked coolly in return, chuckling and dissing even before she could reply. “I gave you a job for that, or is that not enough? What more do you want?”
