The Runaway Groom

Chapter 285

Even as Irene and Isaac’s eyes met, Ricky asked, “Why aren’t you answering? Hah! You don’t love her, do you? After all, a man like you can have any woman you want-why would you even get worked up over one woman? If anything, you’re keeping my sister… No, you’re keeping Irene just because she gave you a child!”

Irene never considered that, and when Ricky suddenly said it, it somehow made sense.

Was Isaac being nice because he loved her, or because of Tommy?

Ricky’s words certainly affected her, and if Ricky knew that, someone as smart as Isaac should know that as well.

That was when Isaac started walking toward her.

“Don’t come!” Irene exclaimed “The bomb!”

Isaac did not seem to hear her, however, and kept walking.

Irene blinked even as she watched him, blinking back tears as she smiled faintly and sobbed, “I’m sure you love me.

“You’re really stupid, aren’t you? He hasn’t said a thing and you believe him already?” Ricky exclaimed with a tone that said ‘I’m-doing-this-for-you.” “It’s only proof that he loves you if he dares to die with you!”

Irene turned toward Ricky. “Wait, what are you doing?”
