The Runaway Groom
Critical hit!
Stan felt as if he had ten thousand lifepoints slashed off his existence just then!
Did they have to hurt him so much?
Meanwhile, James blinked at Stan. “Why don’t you join us? You could come back later to catch up on
your work.”
“Buzz off!” Stan was no masochist—he would be the only single man at the table. It would be so
awkward!
James said, “Just get yourself a woman soon and you won’t be single anymore.”
“Does it look like Mr. Jefferson has another sister?” Stan snapped.
Isaac wheeled on Stan, his aloof gaze slightly cold just then. “What was that?”
“Nothing!” Stan quickly smiled and turned to flee immediately.
The elevator doors opened just then and Isaac strode inside with James behind him.
As the elevator went down, Isaac said, “Try not to upset Stan too much from now on.”
James thought to himself that he was not really doing that, since he was just telling the truth…
That was when Isaac finished. “His brain isn’t that good. You’d drive him nuts.”
James was speechless and stared at Isaac in silence.
Stan would probably get a heart attack from that one if he heard it—that burn would leave him charred!
Soon, the elevator arrived at the basement parking lot and Isaac got into his car.
James opened the door and was about to get in, but Isaac shot him a look. “You’re driving there on
your own.”
With that, he drove off, leaving James standing there speechlessly.
He looked around and decided that it was nothing awkward seeing that there was no one around, and
so went to get his car as if nothing happened.
–
Erin was playing with Tommy in the courtyard.
Her eyes blindfolded as she tentatively reached out to feel if there were obstacles up front, calling out
to the boy, “Tommy? Where are you, Tommy?”
“Over here!” he exclaimed, deliberately standing in front of her and dropping to a crouch just as she
reached him.
Then, seeing Isaac enter, he scurried to hide behind him and exclaimed, “Over here, Aunt Erin!”
His voice drew her toward him again and she quickly tracked the voice and headed in that direction.
“You’d better not move, Ike Jefferson, or I won’t play with you anymore.”
It had been half an hour, but she could not seem to reach him at all, and she was so impatient she was
using his name!
“Alright, I won’t move,” Tommy said as he poked his head out behind Isaac.
Isaac frowned. “Tommy…”
Before he could finish, however, Erin had already lunged toward him, wrapping her arms round him.
While Isaac was left speechless, Erin sensed that something was wrong and she quickly took off her
blindfold.
Realizing that she just grabbed hold of Isaac, she promptly jumped backward as if she just touched
magma. “I, I…”
Isaac was uncomfortable, but he cleared his throat and said, “It’s fine.”
“Hahah! You lose, Aunt Erin! You didn’t get me!” Tommy skipped around happily and ran up to her.
“You’re it.”
Erin, however, grumbled. “I’m not playing with you anymore.”
“No! Let’s play, Aunt Erin!” Tommy took her hand and shook it side to side playfully.
Nonetheless, Erin shook her head determinedly. “No, I’d get the wrong person.”
“Get the wrong person?” James asked just then, having just arrived himself.
Erin’s eyes lit up when she saw him, though Tommy answered before she could. “We were playing
blind man’s bluff. She got Daddy instead of me…”
James certainly knew that Isaac hated being touched by others, and he could not help looking in
Isaac’s way.
Isaac glared at James. “What are you looking at?”
James quickly lowered his head and pretended to rub his nose—there was no way he could say ‘at
your face’!
While Isaac headed into the mansion, Erin passed James the blindfold. “You’re it.”
James was speechless for a moment before asking, “Why not you?”
“No way,” Erin said and quickly tied the blindfold over his eyes, leaving him speechless again.
