The Runaway Groom Chapter 819
Zachary clicked his tongue twice. “You look like you have something to hide, but you’re calling me a voyeur? You’re
the pervert here.”
“I can tell my lady whatever I like. Why do you care?” James snorted coolly. “You’re just obviously jealous that
others are doing fine.”
“Hah! I’m jealous?” Zachary said as he sat opposite him. “You’re the brazen one, flaunting your lovey-dovey
relationship in public.”
James held his gaze for a few moments and said, “I think you’re losing your mind from jealousy.”
Zachary gave him a clever-girl look. “You can tell?”
James was speechless for a moment. “Buzz off!”
Zachary chuckled as the other man rose to his feet. “What are you doing here?”
“I’m in a diner. Do you think I’m taking a bath here instead?”
James was speechless again and he really wanted to tell Zachary to buzz off just then!
“Let’s go together. I was here for a business meeting and I’m done now,” Zachary said, looking serious just then.

Zachary certainly did not deny that—in fact, he was busy right now.
Keeping himself buried in work afforded him a fulfilling life, since he would not have the time to let his thoughts
wander.
“Are you free? How about a drink?” James asked.
“Sure,” Zachary replied.
James put a hand on his shoulder then. “How have you been?”
“What do you mean?” Zachary asked.
James snorted. “You know what I mean. How have you been doing lately? I mean, why would I ask you about your
love life when it’s just a pile of shit now?”
Zachary was speechless. “Can’t you act more civilized?”
“What, am I not civilized?” James asked innocently. “I actually think I am.”
“Fine!”
With that, the duo bickered as they left the diner and drove to a bar.
They danced, drank, and talked.
Time flew as they did, but they started to drink more as they talked about the unhappy stuff.
In reality, James felt pressured too.
He still felt bad about Erin Gooding—not from aversion, but sympathy.
Before what happened, she was such a good kid and she always seemed to glow.
He felt as if he did not take good care of her, and that led to losing their child and her torment.
Zachary was complaining about how things ended with Lulu in turn.
They were separated, reunited only to separate again… there was no way he could just forget about it after so
much.
As they drank glass after glass, Zachary suddenly slammed his glass on the table and scoffed. “Isaac is the happiest
among us now, isn’t he?”
James nodded.
That was certainly undeniable that Isaac was living on cloud nine these days.
“It’s just unfair,” Zachary growled.
They were all men.
And yet, some like him had to lead a dull life, while others like Isaac lived in such bliss one could not help but get

…
Isaac had just fallen asleep when he got a call.
Worried that he would wake Irene, he answered it outside the room.
“Isaac? I’m outside,” Zachary said drunkenly as soon as Isaac took his call.
Isaac scowled. “Do you know what time it is?”
“Hehe… What?”
Isaac was speechless, but simply hung up and turned off his phone in one swift stroke before returning to his room
and going to sleep with Irene in his arms.
He woke up at eight, by which he completely forgot about Zachary’s call, simply treating it as drunken babble!
“Have some more. You didn’t have dinner last night,” Isaac said as he passed Irene his scrambled eggs.
“My stomach can only take that much,” Irene protested. “I can’t finish it even if you throw it at me.”
She returned the scrambled eggs to his plate, which got even more scrambled as they moved it around.
Isaac had no choice but to do it then.
Still, he said, “I’m taking you to the hospital.”
“Alright,” Irene replied.
They headed out after breakfast, only to find the two men lying outside when they opened their door!
