The Runaway Groom Chapter 630
Irene said languidly, "I thought we agreed to go to Sunny City."Isaac lowered his gaze, staring at her for seconds. "Just sleep. It's not too late to go tomorrow.""No, I'll go today. A little sleep will be enough," she insisted, and closed her eyes.Isaac did not try to talk her out of it and he simply helped pull up her blanket. "Okay. I'll wake you in an hour.""Yeah," Irene replied, and fell asleep. …An hour later, Irene woke up without needing Isaac to wake her up.She could not sleep anyway when her missing baby was weighing down on her heart.She got up and changed into fresh clothes.Isaac did not sleep either, and had been making arrangements for a car to Sunny City, as well as arrangements at home, or he would feel too worried to leave.He and Irene then said goodbye to everyone before heading out to Sunny City in the night.Since they went in a MPV, Irene could lounge comfortably in her seat.Once they arrived, James had already 'invited' Harvey's son over, an

That pushed Harvey over the edge.Incensed, his eyes bulged in its sockets as he growled, "Don't push me, Isaac Jefferson. I'm no pushover."Isaac raised a brow. "So you're saying that I am?"That immediately left Harvey speechless—he certainly knew that Isaac was no pushover either, after losing to him so many times without once coming on top.Still, his face flushed and his split flying across the room, he snapped, "You took my son, and that means you're my enemy. I'll destroy you even if it means my death."Even so, Isaac replied calmly, "I could say the same to you."Harvey almost slipped. "W-What are you talking about?""You still don't get it?" Isaac growled, his patience wearing thin. "If you can't remember, I'll use your son to help you with that.""A-Are you threatening me?" Havey gulped, more or less coming to a realization just then.Isaac knew.But that should not have been possible! How did that happen?!"What are you talking about?" Harvey refused to admit it r

Harvey leveled a deadly glare at James, baring all his hostility right then.As they stood off against each other, the air seemed to be ablaze and they looked like they were ready to fight!Irene walked up to Isaac just then, whispering, "Right now, we need to get our child back. Payback can wait."Right now, she wanted to make peace, and one must admit that it was the wise choice—pushing Harvey over the edge would do no one any good. They had to take Harvey seriously while he still had their child.On the other hand, it was not as if James had lost his usual composure, but Harvey was really being despicable! He knew that Irene and Isaac were married with a child but tried to meddle anyway, and he held a grudge when he failed. It was utterly unreasonable!Nonetheless, Isaac called out to James. "James, over here."Harvey became smug as he watched James back off, but he still insisted on Irene apologizing.Irene, however, was a lot more agreeable. "I'm sorry."Hence, despi

Barbara's eyes widened. "Why would I lie? Rainie is our daughter… Are you messing with us now?"Zachary said unhurriedly, "I have proof. That's why I said that."Barbara panicked then and hurried off to her husband, Tobias Lang. As they conferred with each other in their room, Zachary simply waited outside without hurrying them.Still, it took a while for them to return, and Tobias asked, "Who are you?""I stayed here because I recognized her and came to investigate her identity," Zachary admitted. "Be honest and I won't make things hard for you, but if you insist on denying it, you can't blame me if I get rough."Nonetheless, Barbara and Tobias had made their choice after discussing it in their room.Rainie Lang was not actually their daughter, and they could not hide it any longer now that someone came knocking on their doorstep. Moreover, the rest of the village knew that, since a stranger suddenly appeared in their house. Zachary just needed to ask around for proof."Cou

Zachary said, "That's because you are her."Rainie snorted. "Again with this? I knew you were rotten for the start. I don't know who you are, and now you're saying that I'm this person in the photo? You're crazy."With that, she tried to sidestep him and leave, but he caught her by the wrist. "Doubt me all you want, but I can take you to your real father right now and perform a paternity test right in front of you.""I don't need it! Stop harassing me!" Rainie shook his hand off angrily, but Zachary was not about to give in after finding out who she really was.He had already lost her once, and he would not allow that to happen again."Lulu," he said, keeping his voice as even as possible, "You fell into the sea and lost your memories. Barbara and Tobias aren't your parents, and your name isn't Rainie—it's Lulu Adams.""You're crazy! Stay away from me, or I'm calling the cops!" Rainie doubted him anyway.Seeing that she was being stubborn and refusing to believe anything he said

Irene replied. "Nope. What is it?"She was just reunited with her younger son after being put through so much, so she certainly did not want to leave the house without some proper hugs and kisses.And right now, nothing else mattered more than staying home with her sons. "I have Lulu in custody, but she's amnesiac and doesn't recognize me… It wouldn't be a far cry to say that she's very hostile, too. Either way, I'm not getting through to her, but I think you can."Irene actually hesitated then. "Can this wait?"Her second son just returned home and he was still quite weak. They had to settle him in and be extra attentive when it comes to his care."Fine, I just sedated her anyway," Zachary said. "She will be down for around four hours."Hanging up, Irene put away her phone and carried Tommy to Sheryl.She did not actually even have to care for her second son—Sheryl had been taking care of Tommy since he was born, and she was naturally up to the task of caring for Irene's seco

Soon, the door opened and Zachary said, "Come on in.""Where is she?" Irene was actually anxious too."She hasn't woken up," Zachary replied."I'm early, then." "Take a seat. Would you like a drink?""Fruit juice would be good." Zachary poured her a glass of fresh juice, and Irene went to check on Lulu after half a glass.She was still asleep, so Irene gently closed the door.Unbeknown to Irene, Rainie Lang's eyes opened the instant Irene shut the door. She was thinking that she really wanted to know if she was really amnesiac, and whether she actually was Lulu Adams.Quietly rising to her bare feet, Rainie tiptoed to the door just as Irene returned to the living room and asked softly, "Are you done straightening things out back home?""Yeah," Zachary replied quietly. "I've divorced Ember Lindt and made sure her family was destroyed with no hope of resurgence. Now, everything I say in the family goes."Irene hesitated for a moment and asked, "Did the Lindts try to kill L

Zachary asked gingerly, "You're awake?"Rainie remained wary as he stared at her. After overhearing his conversation with Irene, she was enlightened about a great many things despite the lack of words.She had lost her memory because people tried to kill her but failed, and the mother of the man before her was involved."What do you want now?" She glared at him."I told you—this woman was your junior in med school and your best friend. Let her tell you about yourself, and you'd know that I'm not lying."Rainie was laughing inwardly. Not lying? He did not want her to regain her memories!It went without saying that he must have treated her terribly before, or he would not have worried that she remembered."Fine, I'll meet her." She relented."Okay, good," Zachary happily passed her a pair of loafers. "Put these on. She's waiting in the living room. Rainie got to her feet. "What's her name?""Irene Spencer," Zachary replied. "Do you remember your old job? You were a forens

The Runaway Groom Chapter 1265
Soon after the wedding, Mr. Fowler proposed for Stan to work at his company to get used to the work over there.He was worried as he did not have much time left, and it would not do if he was gone before the proper arrangements were made.Still, Stan returned to Franconia with Isaac and his family, sorting out things at work and finishing every task he had on hand.While Isaac used to have a lot of free time with Stan around, he was just slightly busier after Stan left. After all, no company should operate in a way that losing a single person would stall all their operations.And after a week, Stan sorted out all the remaining tasks he had in Franconia and returned to Zidonia to start work at the Fowlers' family business.While Stan had property in Zidonia too, he moved into the Fowlers' mansion, but not as a live-in son-in-law. He was simply aware of Mr. Fowler's illness, and Rea wanted to spend more time with her parents.And as the son-in-law, he was obliged to do that much.
The Runaway Groom Chapter 1264
Despite feeling wistful, Mr. Fowler eventually passed Rea's hand to Stan. "I hope you will both cherish each other from now on."Rea told him, "We will."Thereafter, it was the usual proceedings of a wedding, with exchange of rings and vows, the wedding speech, and the luncheon!Though everything went smoothly, Mrs. Fowler could not help shedding tears.She was pleased that her daughter was finally getting married, especially since she was looking forward to this.But now that Rea really did marry, she was worried that her life might get difficult and unhappy.Such was the worrisome nature of mothers.-Later, Stan led Rea to Isaac's table.They were all acquainted, but Stan introduced everyone once again to reacquaint them with Rea.After all, she was no longer Zachary's friend's cousin now, but Stan's wife.Erin was grinning from ear to ear. "Congratulations.""Thank you." Rea smiled in return."Congrats," Baby said, imitating the adults.Rea reached out to stroke his c

Zachary said, "I heard you sealed the deal with Rea Fowler, and her family is preparing for your wedding."Stan smiled. "I'm the look of success—getting a girl couldn't be simpler. See? I'm getting married already.""Well, I guess we're all taken now," Erin said.Tommy poked his head up just then. "Congratulations, Uncle Stan.""Thank you." Stan chuckled, patting his head."Also, I heard that you're marrying into the Fowler family?" Zachary asked.Everyone turned to stare at Stan in shock, but it was understandable.Stan was not that modest that he would have to go that far—he had money and was successful enough to afford a wife.Still, Zachary—who knew the Fowlers—suggested, "To be fair, they do need someone to take care of the family business…"-Either way, it meant that Irene's family would be delaying their return trip to Franconia.After all, none of them had expected to attend Stan's wedding so soon after Zachary's.Stan himself did not expect that either, as he had
The Runaway Groom Chapter 1262
"What's the problem? We've already slept together," Rea said as she put her clothes on.She frowned as Stan was still on the bed and not moving. "What, are you going to stay in my bed forever?""What am I supposed to wear?" Stan shrugged. "You haven't brought my clothes here.""I'll get it for you."Rea remembered his suitcase then and hurried downstairs to bring it up."Wear whatever you like. I'll be waiting downstairs," she said and hurried away.Stan got out of bed and put on a suit—it was only right to dress formally when it came to discussing marriage.After cleaning up and heading downstairs, he found Rea sandwiched by her parents.Stan had no idea if she had already mentioned it, but both Mr. and Mrs. Fowler were both staring at him, leaving him further tense.Clearing his throat, Stan began, "Excuse me, but—""Yes, we agree to you marrying our daughter.""You mean marrying into our family," Rea corrected them.Everyone else was staring at her before asking all at o
The Runaway Groom Chapter 1261
If Rea asked her parents now, they would only get sad, and life would become difficult for everyoneWhat should she do to make them happy?Right, she could get married! Her parents would definitely be pleased. As for the choice of bridegroom, did she not have one readily available here?If Stan could pretend to be her boyfriend, he could definitely be her husband too.They could fake their marriage if they had to!Putting the medical file back where she found it, she wobbled up to her feet and left the room.Stan had yet to step out of the bathroom when she returned, so she sat on the bed and waited.After a while, Stan stepped out with a towel around his waist and paused when he saw Rea sitting there. "Where are my clothes?" He asked, presuming that Rea had forgotten since there was nothing on the bed or the table. "My suitcase is still in your car trunk."Rea turned toward him. "Let's get married."Stan was left speechless for a moment and soon chuckled, "Did you forge
The Runaway Groom Chapter 1260
Mrs. Fowler smacked her daughter, but while Rea thought she was angry, she said instead, "Just do your best."Rea's mind was blown—were her parents bewitched? They were completely different from before! A long time ago, her parents had used to tell her that she did not have to marry as long as she was happy.But later on, they had persistently sent her on blind dates… and now, they were telling her to seduce a man?Touching her mother's forehead, Rea asked, "Are you sick?"Mrs. Fowler slapped her hand off. "Your dad and I are leaving now.""Yeah." Mr. Fowler nodded. "The chauffeur is waiting."Rea walked them to the door and watched as their car left before returning inside.She did not go upstairs since Stan was asleep, and she would be bored—she was the type who just could not sit still.However, it was inappropriate if she left since that would leave nobody home.In her boredom, she thought of pranking Stan. She headed upstairs to find him asleep, and soundly at that.Ca
The Runaway Groom Chapter 1259
Unable to argue against her parents, Rea said, "Fine, fine. Whatever you say."Mrs. Fowler smiled. "Then help Stan upstairs to get some rest.""Which room?" Rea asked.Mrs. Fowler realized with a start and quickly said, "Oh, there's no bedding in the guest room… So let him stay in your room."Rea was left staring at her in shock. "When did you get so open-minded? Letting a man stay in your daughter's room?"Mrs. Fowler shrugged. "What can he do when he's drunk?""Haven't you heard of drunken fumbles?" Rea asked.Both Mr. and Mrs. Fowler shook their heads at the same time. "Nope."Rea was left totally speechless—this was just outrageous!She would think that Stan was actually their son, if it was not for the fact that they were not acquainted before.They were not like this before either—even if they were urging her to get married, they were not throwing her at a man like this!Mr. Fowler then said, "If anything happens, we'll demand that he takes responsibility and marries y
The Runaway Groom Chapter 1258
"I get it," Stan replied quietly. "I wouldn't have been upset even if you didn't explain yourself. But since you did, I forgive you."Rea's brow creased as she pursed her lips. "See? I knew it. We really shouldn't be too nice to you."While Stan was speechless, Mrs. Fowler was enthusiastically putting food on Stan's plate. "This is our family's favorite dish. Try it."Stan nodded after a bite. "It's good."Mrs. Fowler smiled, while Mr. Fowler poured him a glass of wine. "Can you hold your liquor?"Stan smiled. "More or less.""You're being humble now." Mr. Fowler smiled at him. "You're definitely a good drinker.""A little."Rea had enough right then. "Dad, Stan has work to do, and he has to return to Franconia tomorrow. You're going to make things difficult for him."Mr. Fowler smiled awkwardly. "Right…" "You think?" Rea huffed, snatching his wine away. "Everyone only gets to have one glass."Mr. Fowler glared at Rea. "Party pooper."Rea shrugged. "I'm doing this for your
The Runaway Groom Chapter 1257
Rea turned her head aside. "Then what's your hobby?"Stan did a double take and remembered his life… which was work and more work.It had been years since he took leave, and he would not get to goof off the last few days if it had not been for Zachary's wedding.Hobby? He certainly did not have anything like that.Now that he thought about it, his life was boring and monotonous, and he did not have anyone very close.That was why he wanted a kind, understanding wife to care and offer him company while he took care of her needs.When he looked up at Rea, he clearly felt that she was not for him—he needed someone to take care of him, but with her, he would be busy taking care of her instead."You're looking at me weirdly," Rea suddenly said."How so?" Stan asked.Rea moved closer, looking him in the eyes and asking solemnly, "Don't tell me—you've fallen for me?""You don't just suffer from a flawed personality—you're narcissistic too."Stan pursed his lips and checked the tim
