The Runaway Groom Chapter 908
As Irene strode into the elevator, James followed her like he usually did with Isaac.
“Mrs. Jefferson.” Some of the employees in the building greeted Irene when she passed them.
Irene would respond with a small nod and a faint smile.
Then, arriving outside Isaac’s office, she said a little too loudly, “James, inform everyone that we will be having a
meeting soon.”
And with that, she headed inside Isaac’s office right away.
Having heard that, some of the employees slid up to James, asking, “Mr. Cross? Is Mrs. Jefferson really calling for a
meeting? What’s going on here?”
“Mr. Jefferson mentioned before that she would start learning management of the company,” he replied. “She’ll
probably announce that at the meeting and properly introduce herself.”
“Really?” someone exclaimed softly. “But isn’t she the director of Hotmesh Research? I just saw the video of her

“She resigned,” James said.
“I see!” Someone else came up, butting in. “Such a shame… Everyone was saying Mr. Jefferson married her for her
looks, but it turns out that she’s already so accomplished despite being so young.”
James quickly added, “She spent time studying at Mead Clinic in Minerva.”
“Oh, I know that place. It’s the world’s top medical research center,” yet another person added.
People were starting to flock around James and they were all very very interested in Irene, mainly because she was
Isaac’s domestic partner.
“That’s the one,” James replied. “Once she returned to Zidonia, she took up the post of director of Hotmesh
Research, and led the successful development of an artificial heart. She’s a famous heart surgeon as well, but since
both her and Mr. Jefferson were too busy at work and could not spend time at home, she decided to resign to take
care of their family. However, she’s also used to working and cannot calm down, and since Mr. Jefferson is heading
to Remy now, he’s letting her learn a couple things about company management while she’s free.”
News of the successful development of the artificial heart was everywhere, and almost everyone at Twinrise
Enterprises had seen that video interview.
Irene had certainly been down-to-earth and candid, and judging from her response to the interviewer’s questions,
she was not one who hogged the spotlight.
She also did not claim all credit, and everyone naturally had a good impression after watching the interview.
Most importantly, while they all believed that she married Isaac thanks to her good looks, she actually depended
entirely on her own abilities to win his heart!
“Alright, that’s enough. It’s time for the meeting,” James said then, cutting them off or he might say too much and
let on his attention.
With that, the crowd around him dispersed and shuffled into the conference room.
Still, there were those who commented that a medical professional might not be able to learn company
management.

As she looked up to his seat, she seemed to see Isaac in it, working like he usually did.
His face looked so vivid…
Still, the image soon faded and Irene lowered her eyes in disappointment.
Soon, the door opened and Elliot entered. “Mrs. Jefferson? Mr. Cross asked me to inform you that everyone is in the
conference room now.”
Withdrawing her hand from the desk, Irene said, “Okay.”
“Should I take you to it?” Elliot asked, worried that Irene was not familiar with the office building.
However, though Irene had visited before and knew where it was, she did not refuse Elliot either.
“Sure,” she replied evenly and strode out, heading straight to the conference room.
Arriving outside the door, the secretary quickly walked up and opened the door.
As Irene strode inside, everyone got to their feet.
She headed straight to the main chair, casting a sweeping glance over the crowd of around twenty, and she
gestured. “Please be seated.”
