The Runaway Groom

Chapter 403

Stephen was left stunned. “You didn’t know?”

Irene laughed dryly. “Do you really think that he would still talk to me about his affairs?”

“No,” Stephen quickly said, and sighed. “Mick had an accident on his way to the airport. It was horrific- the taxi driver died on the spot, while Mick was critically injured. Luckily, help reached him in time and he survived. Still, don’t you think that it’s too much of a coincidence? Don’t you think Isaac Jefferson is behind that?”

Irene pursed her lips in silence-she would not be surprised if Isaac was, given his character.

She at least knew that much about him.

“You shouldn’t jump to conclusions without evidence,” she said coolly nonetheless. “Mick’s lucky that he survived.”

Stephen thought about it and agreed. Mick had been a dead man walking ever since Yvaine’s death, and somehow managed to survive despite the horrific accident-it seemed that it just was not his time to go.
