The Runaway Groom

The Runaway Groom By Hauling Treasures Chapter 425

Chapter 425 

James Cross said, “Mr. Jefferson sent me.”

“Where is he?” Irene asked.

“He just arrived in Franconia, so he won’t be returning soon,” James replied. “I’m your protection detail in the meantime.”

Irene frowned-by all accounts, Isaac should have arrived in Franconia already. “He just arrived? Are you sure?”

James averted his eyes.

Isaac certainly should have arrived at Franconia sooner, but he had delayed his flight after receiving Mrs.

Watson’s call.

Now, he was going to need time to take another flight back to the country.

In reality, Isaac had his people keep a constant watch on his estranged family, because he knew they would not give up so easily. He told them to inform him the instant they were on the move, and they just did.

Worried that Irene would be in danger, Isaac sent James, who just happened to be staying in the country.

It was certainly fortunate he did, or there would be real trouble.

Still, to Irene, James’s evasiveness made it clear that Isaac was refusing to see her.

“If he doesn’t care enough to show up, why bother pretending to care at all? Is he even concerned if I’m alive or dead?!”

For some reason, all the pent-up frustrations she had been keeping inside burst out right then.

James quickly tried to explain, “It’s a misunderstanding-”

“How is that a misunderstanding?” Irene laughed despite herself. “He knows that the Jeffersons might harass me, or even threaten me, but he still refuses to show his face! And here you are, lying for him, telling me that he just arrived and can’t return so soon? What, are you going to tell me now that he’s late because he went by car instead of plane?!”

“He was just delayed. Mr. Jefferson actually boarded the flight this morning-

“Quit it. I don’t want to hear a word. He sent you, right? Just watch the door!”

Η

With that, she shut the door in James’s face, and leaned against it as her tears started to flow, but stubbornly wiped them away!

James was left standing outside.
