The Runaway Groom

Chapter 665

Isaac did not return even at 8 PM and Irene's calls were not getting through.

It was only after she asked James that she found out that Isaac had left the country.

How could he leave so quietly without giving her a head's up?

Irene actually felt very miserable that she could not sleep that night, and was left staring at her phone, wishing that he would call.

However, she received a call from the hospital instead.

"Sorry for calling this late, but are you a friend or family member of Zachary Slate?"

Irene drew a blank, and asked, "Who are you?"

"I'm calling from emergency dispatch—we had to get your number from the patient's phone. If you're a family member, please come to the hospital at once."

Irene frowned. "What happened?"

"He was wounded in a fire. He's being rushed to Cloud City General as we speak."

"Understood. I'll be right there," Irene said. She then quickly got out of bed and put on her clothes before asking the chauffeur to drive her to the hospital.
