The Runaway Groom
Irene knocked on the door to Isaac’s office, and it soon opened.
Isaac stood at the doorway as he noticed the bag she was holding. He asked, “What’s that you’re
holding?”
Irene entered and replied, “Dirty clothes.”
Isaac was just about to ask her what dirty clothes she was referring to when James Cross entered as
well.
“Sit down. Do you need a drink?” Isaac asked.
“Yeah,” Irene murmured distractedly, nestled on the couch.
Isaac could tell that she was under the weather, but he asked nothing and instead returned to his desk.
“You said ‘almost’. Did you find the guy?” he asked James.
“Yeah,” James nodded. “Our man is a subordinate working under New Suns Pharma’s deputy CEO.”
And that man had asked someone to bribe the nurse.
Since they had already found the perps, they just had to deal with Neil.
That man was still adamant that Irene’s surgery and the artificial heart was what killed Dennis. He
would have trouble accepting that his father was poisoned, and was not killed because of the surgery.
As such, they still had to work on Neil even if they already had key witnesses.
After thinking about it for a while, Isaac asked, “Where’s the dossier on Neil Turner you compiled
before?”
“I’ll get it right now,” James replied and turned to leave.
At the same time, Isaac turned toward Irene.
She should be exceedingly concerned about the case, but she was somehow out of it today.
Walking over to her, he asked, “Are you feeling sick, Irene?”
“Oh!” she exclaimed as she came to her senses. “Wait, what?”
Isaac stared at her for a moment before putting a palm on her forehead. “What’s got you distracted? Do
you have a fever?”
Irene shook his head and mustered her spirit.
“No.” She forced a smile and took his hand. “What’s wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?”
“Something’s off with you today,” Isaac told her seriously.
“Really?” Irene asked in return, even feigning composure as she did.
Holding her gaze for seconds, he said, “Talk to me.”
She simply smiled. “What, don’t you know everything about me? I’ll be resigning once this is over.”
“Yeah,” he said, patting her head. “You should have done so long ago.”
Irene leaned on him just then. “Would you forgive me if I made a mistake, Isaac?”
Isaac was speechless.
No, something was definitely wrong!
There had to be something that made her say this.
“What mistake are you talking about?’
Irene quickly shook her head. “I just meant theoretically.”
“I doubt it,” he said, lifting her chin. “Look at me and spit the truth.”
Irene gave him a shove. “You’re despicable—I was just kidding, and you took it seriously?”
“I don’t think you’re joking. It’s more like you’re testing me,” Isaac said directly.
“Sir?” James returned with the dossier just then, and started to turn and leave when he noticed that
things were weird.
Irene stopped him.
“What did you bring? Show me,” she said, getting off the couch and walking up to James.
James passed her the dossier, and she opened it to see that it was everything on Neil—his
interpersonal relationships, his job… and everything there was to know about him.
She kept reading it while asking Isaac, “What are you planning to do?”
“We’re tipping off the police,” Isaac replied simply, instinctively sensing that Irene had something
weighing on her mind.
He then spotted the bag on the couch.
As for the dossier, it was prepared much earlier, but they thought they did not need it after Dennis woke
up.
They were now taking it out because they were worried Neil would keep hounding Irene, and they were
planning to harass him at work so that he would stay in line.
There was a legal process to go through to connect Dennis’s death to New Suns Pharma, and Isaac
was not about to handle it personally.
Irene naturally agreed that it was the right decision.
“You boys talk. I’ll get some water.”
She was thirsty too.
After a while, James had already left when she returned with the water, and Isaac was alone.
He was holding the pants she changed out of while staring at her.
