The Runaway Groom Chapter 761
Real Man
“I shall take over the grocery shopping task as well. I’ll do it on my way home from work. You will only need to set your mind at
ease and stay home. You don’t need to bother yourself with anything else. Don’t open the door to anyone other than me.” “Sure.”
Deirdre’s face was ghastly pale.
It was her only option now.
Deirdre spent the next few days constantly in deep distress. Every time she heard footsteps outside, she would be scared out of
her wits. However, it was fortunate that nothing bad happened.
‘You don’t need to worry too much. How can Brendan possibly be able to locate us when we’re in a huge place like Surstate?
He’s not the director with the script of our life stories. You don’t need to be too worried.”
Tobey took two bites of the meal and comforted Deirdre by saying, “You can go out for a walk to relax your mind once the dust
settles. You don’t need to stay in the room all day long because that won’t be good for the baby.”
Deirdre’s grip over her cutlery tightened. “It’s alright. I think staying here is pretty good, and I like not having to worry and think
about anything else.”

Madame Russell wiped her tears and said, ‘You can give me an address anyhow, right? This will allow me to set my mind at
ease so I can know where to look for you if I can’t reach you at the very least.”
Tobey figured that she was right, so he agreed. “You won’t remember the address if I send it to you now, so I will send a text
message to you. I’m in Surstate, and the only way here is by ship. Don’t take the trouble to come here because I’ll come to get
you when I’ve settled down.”
Madame Russell said, ‘Why do you insist on enduring this hardship, boy? Moreover, you took Deirdre with you!”
Deirdre was amused. She was worried that Tobey would be regarded as a kidnapper by Madame Russell if she did not speak
out anymore.
“Madame Russell, the situation is quite complicated. When we have settled down over here, well bring you over and explain to
you properly. However, Tobey has been very helpful to me.”
“Deirdre...” Madame Russell was sympathetic. “Silly girl, why are you still running about when you’re pregnant? Your body is
