The Runaway Groom

Chapter 443

Stephen almost lost his footing the instant he saw Isaac inside the office.

What was he doing here?!

Pulling the doctor aside, he asked softly, "When did he get here?"

"Just now," the doctor replied. "He chased everyone out the instant he arrived. I think he's gathering Dr. Spencer's belongings."

Carr became flustered-Irene repeatedly emphasized the importance that he gathered her belongings.

What was he supposed to do now?

"Is there something wrong, Dr. Carr?" The doctor noticed the look on his face.

Stephen quickly shook his head. "It's nothing. Also, all of you should go about your business instead of standing around.

The doctors dispersed, while Stephen, feeling too guilty to talk to Isaac, turned to leave as well.

He would never dare.

A quietness loomed amid the rows of desks in the office, and Isaac was the only one seated there, at Irene's seat.

There were stacks of books, research papers, patient medical histories, and various receipts on the table.

Only one photo frame stood on top along with those stacks: a simple doodle of Tommy by Irene herself.
