Semua Bab The Runaway Groom: Bab 571 - Bab 580

Ricky was glaring furiously at Zachary, his eyes opened so wide they were bulging as if they would pop out.In a split second, he rushed forward, grabbed Zachary by the collar, and launched a lightning quick jab on his face!Pow! There was a dull thud and Zachary tasted blood on his lips. Ricky did not loosen his grip, however, and shoved Zachary to the floor as he kept clobbering him.Stunned for a moment, Irene quickly came to her senses and ran up to pull him away. "Calm down!""How could I?!" Ricky bellowed in rage. "He's a married man, but he had to keep bugging Lulu! That's why she was killed. It's him. It's all because of him…"He had lost all rationality right then. All he wanted to do was to murder Zachary! "Get off me!" he cried and shook Irene off.As she lost her balance and fell on the couch, she grimaced in pain as she felt a pull on the scar over her belly.Ricky did not notice her discomfort, however, and was still punching Zachary relentlessly.Zachary di

As Irene got out of bed, Isaac left the room first to check on Tommy.Everyone else apart from Irene and Isaac already had their breakfast, so they went to the dining table together. "I will have to drop by the office later," Isaac said. Irene nodded—there definitely would be work waiting to be done since he just returned."Um…" She wanted to ask Isaac about the photo in his notebook."What is it?"As Isaac stared at her for a moment, Irene shook her head. "No, it's nothing."She should be trusting in Isaac—he would eventually tell her if there was anything she needed to know. "Stay home and get some proper rest," he told her before he left for work.It just so happened that Irene was feeling spirited for the day.Tommy was sitting on the floor and playing with his little dog, and she walked up to pat his little head. "Are you having fun?"Tommy looked up and beamed at her, and she scooped him up in his arms and gave him a peck on the cheek.Sheryl soon walked up to he

Although Isaac had now seen Debbie's true nature, he asked, "Why would you hurt James Cross? He was the one who got you recommended to this job. Shouldn't you be grateful?"He wanted to know if James found out about some sort of secret she had, that forced her to silence James."I really liked that diamond necklace you plan to give Irene Spencer, and I put it on as I fantasized that you gave it to me—James caught me red-handed, and I knew right then that he saw through me. So, I tried to silence him… permanently."Debbie then paused for a moment before adding, "Oh, I'm grateful that he got me this job, but he became my obstacle after he saw what I did. Hesitation is the worst thing to do, so I had to do what I did… who knew that he would've survived that instead." "Since you wanted to keep things quiet, why dispense with your disguise now? Are you really that confident that I'll bend to your whims?" Isaac leaned against his chair, but every nerve in his body was stiffening despite

Stephen was there mainly because of the research paper incident before.Though Tobey Kitsch, the deputy director, had since been fired for his duplicity and Irene was also caught in the subsequent fallout, Stephen was still hoping that they could continue using the research data to develop a fully artificial heart for the sake of the country.Dennis Turner, the director, naturally agreed with the idea.At the same time, he blamed himself for not seeing Tobey's true colors until it was too late, leaving a huge mess in his wake.After their discussion, Dennis was escorting Stephen out when he noticed Irene in the lobby.Knowing Irene's health, Stephen hurried to her and asked in concern, "What are you doing here? You should be resting at home."Irene sighed feebly. "I'm in trouble.""What is it? Do you need my help?" Irene smiled begrudgingly. "As a matter of fact, I do.""Alright, shoot—I'll help you as best as I can within my power," Stephen said.He still felt like he owed

Irene remembered then—she had lost one of her twins at the time.Debbie smiled. "Actually, I knew everything, including the fact that Ricky was the driver… But since the vehicle was registered under your name, I sent our men after you instead."Irene's hand slowly clenched into fists at her sides.Whitney Cox's amniocentesis did not cause a miscarriage at the time, but she had suffered one after those men attacked her.She had always held that grudge against Whitney, but it turned out that Debbie was the real culprit.If she did not send those men after her, both twins would have survived.She glared at Debbie then, truly realizing how far her treachery goes just then."Now you got what you wanted. You've won—I lost.""I always get what I want," Debbie gloated."Yeah. Good luck," Irene flatly said, and turned to leave.…They were soon done packing since they were just taking some clothes and necessities, and Irene was carrying Tommy, while Mrs. Watsons and Sheryl carried th
