The Runaway Groom

Chapter 676

Erin darted inside her car the instant she saw Isaac. She did not even want to make eye contact, though that was less fear than her uneasiness with his coldness.

She knew her place and certainly did not want him to misunderstand that she was a social climber, which was why keeping her distance was the best policy for her.

For Isaac's part, he glanced at her car but did not say a thing.

Lulu greeted him before leaving, while Irene walked up, linking arms with him as he headed inside the mansion.

"Did you send something in today?"

"Do you like it?’ Isaac asked, watching her reaction.

Irene's lips curled up briefly-she would be lying if she said she did not like it because no woman disliked sparkling jewelry.

However, she did not love it that much and was perfectly without it anyway.

What made her happy was Isaac's sincerity-it was obvious he was sincere.
