The Runaway Groom

Chapter 360

There was no one in the bedroom.

Irene blinked. Could he be in the study?

Quickly closing the door, she hurried to study and opened the door… Only to find Stan, standing in front of the desk and sorting some documents.

Frowning, she asked, “What are you doing here, Stan? Where’s Isaac?”

Mrs. Watson said, “I was going to tell you just then–Mr. Hill came, not Mr. Jefferson.”

Irene’s face fell just then, while Stan appeared to be done and carried a stack of documents out of the study.

Before he left, he offered Irene some kind advice as she stood by the door, “You should contact Mr. Jefferson if you’re not busy, ma’am.”

Ever since Irene refused to leave the country with Isaac the other day, Isaac had been scowling, feeling constantly irritable and checking his phone constantly.

He was certainly unable to put aside his pride to call Irene, and was hoping for her to do it first… But she never did.

Irene was actually left speechless, because she had not exactly been idling.

But it was not as if she did not miss him.
