The Runaway Groom

Chapter 187

“But we’re having a real wedding here. What’s fake about it? We’ll get our marriage certificate after as well.”

Harvey had never considered that any of this fake–he wanted Irene, and upsetting Isaac was just a bonus.

Still, he would not push Irene too far. “It’s a simple wedding anyway, and would be over before you know it. I don’t mind going along with any requests either…”

Irene gave him a look but said nothing.

“We’re late. Shall we?” Harvey asked.

“Okay,” Irene said simply.

The wedding was neither lively nor joyous—only Harvey himself was pleased about it.

There was nothing to dilly–dally about at this stage. Still, she could see her child soon when the wedding was over.

As she stepped out of the door, Sheryl Harris came downstairs.

She did not want to see her own daughter marry someone she did not love, but could not help coming downstairs when she saw her leaving in a wedding dress.

“Irene….”

Irene turned and smiled at her. “I’m getting married, Mom. Please be happy for me.”

There was no way Sheryl would be—it was a miracle that she was not crying.

Harvey put a hand around Irene’s shoulder. “I’ll be nice to her, ma’am.”

Sheryl was not about to believe him–he had kidnapped an infant and forced this wedding in the first place!

Was his definition of nice forcing Irene to marry him when there was no love there? How was that nice?

Also, this was basically his second time holding Irene against her will. There was no way Sheryl would believe anything he said.

Irene forced a smile so that Sheryl did not have to worry, “Just watch the house for me, okay?”

With that, she turned toward Harvey. “Let’s go.” This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

Harvey walked up to her and quietly said, “Just trust me this one time.”

Irene pushed him away right then. “You don’t deserve my trust the instant you kidnapped Tommy.”

Even as Harvey stared gloomily from behind, she strode towards a Rolls–Royce Phantom, which was decorated elaborately with flowers and looked the part of a bridal carriage.

It looked like a wedding to Irene too, but it just seemed to not be hers.

Getting into the car, Harvey asked her, “Are you upset?”

“No,” Irene replied, but she clearly looked annoyed.

“It’s our wedding day, so look happy,” Harvey said as he sat beside her.

Irene frowned. “I agreed to marry you, but don’t you dare think that there’s anything real

between us.”

“Okay.” Harvey was unaffected, because he was convinced that feelings could grow.

And with them staying together, they would have all the chance to groom it.

He was certainly confident about that.

Nonetheless, as the Phantom drove on steadily along the highway, several armored Hummers suddenly came charging from the opposite end, clearly targeting the Phantom and crashing straight into it.

However, the Phantom was certainly worth the money–it was a violent crash that actually dented the hood, but everyone inside was safe.

But immediately after they stopped, several men got out of the Hummers and barged into the car, and started to make a grab for Irene.

“Who are you people?!” Harvey promptly moved in front of her!
