The Runaway Groom Chapter 911

After both men arrived, Eagle was standing behind James, but he kept his eyes lowered without looking at Irene.

He had no idea what happened that Irene would suddenly move her entire family over to Franconia, but he was sharp enough to tell that it was something serious. It would not explain her urgency otherwise.

Looking at Irene just then, James murmured, “Mrs. Jefferson…”
