The Runaway Groom

Chapter 182

Isaac finally looked up from his work when he heard Irene’s name.

Harvey naturally became smug at that, and opened the envelope to Isaac so that he could see the photo enclosed inside and their name. “See?”

Isaac remained calm and unaffected. “I dumped her. Take her with you all you want.”

However, Harvey knew by now that lie was too good at pretending, and did not even mind his dissing. “Of course you dumped her, and that’s on you. I don’t mind that she’s been with other men, and she’ll be mine from now on. For that, I have to thank you for letting go, but don’t worry, I’ll give her some proper loving.”

“Get out!” Isaac snapped, scrawling a signature on the bottom of a document and throwing it aside. © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

Harvey was grinning ear to ear at his response, as if challenging Isaac to hit him. “It’s this Saturday, Mr. Jefferson! Don’t forget!”

Isaac’s lips curled up savagely as Harvey put down the invitation. “See you there.”

With that, he whistled a tune cheerfully and smugly left Isaac’s office.

The instant he was gone, Isaac’s calm turned into rage!

“Irene Spencer!” he snarled through gritted teeth.

So, she was pushing another woman to him so that she could marry Harvey Gooding?!

Well done!

He had kept telling himself that she did not deserve himself, but he was still upset once he knew that he was marrying another man.

It felt as if something was stuck on his chest, suffocating him.

“Mr. Jefferson…”

Kathy had just entered his office without knocking, but Isaac was already furious, and immediately snapped, “Get out!”

Startled, Kathy promptly closed the door–her heart was racing, because it was the first time. she had seen him being that furious. Deciding that she should not try her luck just then, she turned to leave when Stan rushed toward Isaac’s office.

When he saw her, he asked, “Did you make Mr. Jefferson upset?”

Isaac had just called him–he sounded like he was ready to kill.

Kathy shook her head. “I was bringing a proposal, and he chased me out before I could What’s wrong with him?”

get

in.

“How should I know?” Stan snorted–he was almost scared witless from Isaac’s call.

Taking a deep breath, he entered Isaac’s office with a smile, asking gingerly, “Mr. Jefferson?”

“Harass Harvey Gooding,” Isaac growled, heaving as he took off his necktie, threw it on his desk, and freed his collar. “I don’t care what you do—just make sure he’s not having a good

time.”

‘Did Harvey upset him again?‘ Stan thought.

“He would have smartened up after we did it to him twice. We probably can’t do anything to his company now…‘

Isaac looked up, his eyes flashing like a dagger. “You’re really getting incompetent, aren’t you? If you can’t harass him at work, then find some other way!”

Stan nodded. “Understood.”

“Now get it done!” Isaac bellowed.

He had never been this irritated–it was almost killing him!

His collar was clearly free, and he even took off two more buttons, but he somehow felt like he was still suffocating!

He had never suffered so much over anything, but Irene left him a mess repeatedly, and he even stopped acting like himself.

He hated himself being like that!

Why did he have to get in a bad mood over that woman, who seemed not to have a conscience?!

Did she deserve it?! Certainly not!

He worked hard to breathe, attempting to calm himself.

Stan had to pat himself on the chest after he left Isaac’s office, having no idea what had gotten his goat.

Did Harvey somehow upset him again?

“What’s wrong, Mr. Hill?” Kathy asked—she had been waiting there for him, intent on finding out why Isaac was upset.
