The Runaway Groom Chapter 412
Zachary turned around to see Ricky standing nearby, with Lulu beside him.Zachary's face fell as his gaze lingered on Lulu, and Ricky could actually feel her trembling. Reaching out, he held her hand and whispered, "It's alright. I'm with you."Zachary saw that, and he immediately balled into a fist.Irene naturally noticed that Zachary was already holding back, and quickly walked up in front of Lulu to block his line of sight. "Found you. Now, it's time for us to leave—you can go about your business now, Zachary."Zachary did not leave, however, instead strode toward them, stalking past Irene. "I need to talk to Lulu."Lulu held his gaze, and said calmly and impassively, "There's nothing to talk about. You're the groom, so stick to your business. I won't be imposing—in fact, I wouldn't be here if I'd known that it's your wedding today. Ricky tricked me, saying that it's a friend's wedding and insisted that I accompany him., so believe me when I tell you that I'm not here to sab

Time seemed to stand still for several seconds until Ember spoke."Lulu Adams, I presume? Zachary told me about you. Did you come to attend my wedding too?"She was smiling as if nothing ever happened.On the other hand, Lulu was frowning. Zachary told Ember about her? Like a boyfriend would tell her girlfriend about his ex?Humiliated, Lulu snorted. "I've just come to congratulate you on your wedding. I wish you the best today and always," she said, before turning toward Zachary. "Your husband is such a playboy that you'd better keep him on a tight leash, or he'd get restless whenever he lays his eyes on another woman," "He's not like that," Ember said, lifting her dress as she walked toward them and wrapped her arms around Zachary. "It's our wedding today, so we have many guests to greet, and the ceremony is starting soon. Do feel free to take a seat at the hall—it's time we leave."From the very start, she never raised her voice or got upset. Her calmness and tolerance wa

Irene took the note and asked, "Who was the sender?"The attendant shook his head, because he had instructions beforehand. "I can't say.""Alright, thank you." Irene said, refraining from making things difficult for him.After the attendant left, Irene unfurled the piece of paper and read it.[26th floor, Room 502. There's something you must know.]Once she read it, she crumpled it into a ball and threw it into a trash can nearby, but did not land.Something mysterious and unsigned like that would be nothing good—she was not stupid enough to answer such a call.At the same time, the ceremony was starting.As the mob around Isaac dispersed, he went to sit beside Irene. "You're a busy man," she said. He was just here to attend a wedding, but he was the one who got mobbed. She took another sip of her juice and then put her glass down rather heavily.Isaac glanced at the glass and asked, "Are you upset?"Irene shook her head firmly—she certainly would not dare to get upset

A gentle push, and the door was open… But there was nothing inside.Irene frowned. "Could this be a prank?"Isaac said nothing, but he had a hunch—it was probably not a prank, but since Irene did not fall for their trap, the people behind cleaned things up thoroughly and left no trace behind."Let's go back," she said.It was not their wedding, and running off like this was impolite."Yeah," Isaac agreed. While they stood waiting for the elevator, Irene leaned against him, but just as she was going to hold his hand, the elevator arrived with a jingle.As the doors opened, Irene quietly pulled away, but Isaac took her hand, catching her by surprise.In the instant their skin touched, her heart began to pound.She had no idea why—especially after they had shared their bed for a while now.Nonetheless, she followed Isaac into the elevator, with the doors soon closing behind him. As she pressed the button to the first floor, the doors closed, confining them within. Irene looke

There was a crowd gathered outside, staring up at Central Tower. Zachary and Ember did the same, and saw several banners dangling over the glass walls of the tower.[Zachary Slate is a bastard!][Zachary Slate, kiss my ass!][Ember Lindt is a whore!][Ember Lindt is a bitch!]Zachary was not upset at first, but glowered when he saw that Ember was dragged into it. "Where's security?" he snapped. "Why isn't anyone taking those down?!""Right away, sir!"Nonetheless, the Lindts were already alerted—Ember's parents stepped out as well, and their faces fell when they saw the banners."You'd better have an explanation, Zachary."As a family with a reputation to uphold, the Lindts were certainly embarrassed that something like that happened at their daughter's wedding.Mrs. Slate quickly explained, "It must be a prank—""Everyone knows our families' standing in this city, but they mess with us despite knowing that!" Mr. Lindt barked, and turned toward Zachary. "It's obvious tha

Irene turned around to find Zachary standing there and she quickly explained, "It's just a hunch."She only wanted to tell Isaac what she thought, and did not expect Zachary to be listening!Zachary had actually hurried to them to see them off and had inadvertently overheard Irene. He did not believe that it was Lulu, and was quickly convinced that Spencer was responsible. Ricky was young and impulsive—it certainly looked like something he would do."It's your wedding. What are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be busy?" Irene asked, changing the subject."I was going to see you off," Zachary said, hesitating for a moment before continuing, "Also, please pass a message to Lulu.""What is it?" Irene asked."Tell her…" Zachary's voice trailed off, and then said, "Forget it."It was pointless to say anything now—there was no question that he was the one who let her down.…Jimmy the chauffeur was the one who brought Irene to Central Tower, so she sent him home while she

Irene woke up to the faint scent of antiseptic. It was such a familiar scent that she immediately knew that she was in the hospital.As she slowly opened her eyes, the lights on the ceiling were so bright that they hurt her eyes. She closed her eyes, rested for a while before opening them again.Mrs. Watson had Tommy in her arms. Relieved to see Irene open her eyes, she exclaimed happily, "You're awake, ma'am!" Irene wanted to get up, but she suddenly found herself too weak and unable to muster any strength. "The doctor said that you're very weak and shouldn't move. You should rest," Mrs. Watson told her.Irene glanced at Tommy just then and held out her hands. "Can you give Tommy to me?"Mrs. Watson put Tommy on her bed, and Irene said, "Let me have a moment."Knowing that she wanted to be alone, Mrs. Watson asked, "Is there anything you want to eat? I'll get it for you."Irene had no appetite at all, and told Mrs. Watson as much.Mrs. Watson sighed and tried to reason

It was Stephen Carr."Feeling better yet?" he asked.Irene sat up. "Much better, Dr. Carr. Though, why are you here?""I was present when they brought you in," Stephen replied. "I did the initial checkup, followed by the Head of Gynecology…""Wait, do I have a gynecological disorder?" No way… She knew her own body well enough. "I was just losing sleep for a while, and a little tired from work. I'm not—""You might be pregnant," Stephen said, cutting her short.Irene did a double take. "What?!"She had been taking contraceptive pills. How could she get pregnant?"There must be a mistake…""Not if it's the Head of Gynecology," Stephen countered. Irene was dumbstruck. "No way.""You can check yourself if you don't believe me," Stephen said, holding her gaze. "It should work to your benefit too, since it can ease tensions between you and Isaac…"Irene did not think so. She and Isaac barely saw eye to eye with Tommy, and even after they finally started to develop a bond,
