Irene got out of bed.

She had to keep her head reared after the surgery on her neck.

Unable to see underneath herself, she knocked into a table and almost fell over.

Isaac quickly returned inside when he heard the commotion, frowning as he watched her standing there. "What are you doing?"

"Oh!" Irene gasped. "Wait, didn't I tell you to buy me food?"

"You were just sending me away while you went to the washroom, weren't you?"

"Nope." Irene did not deny it.

"Really?" Isaac simply walked up to her and scooped her up in his arms.

Then, carrying her to the washroom, he started to loosen her pants—

Shocked, Irene quickly caught her own pants while snapping, "What are you doing?!"

"Helping you with your potty business," Isaac replied in amusement. "We're married—is there a part of you I hadn't seen?"

Irene was speechless and she simply shoved him.

It only seemed to make Isaac's grin broaden. "Getting shy, are we?"

"Get out."

Irene appeared to be getting angry, so Isaac left th

    At the next instant, Ricky dashed forward and pulled Lulu to his side, snapping, "Where have you been? They were all saying that you're dead, so why are you showing up now? And what are you doing with Zachary Slate? Don't you think he's hurt you enough?"Lulu's heart stirred when she saw the disappointment in Ricky's eyes.He really cared about her, did he not? Why else would he be so concerned?"Ricky, you're just a brother to him, so stop being delusional." Zachary took Lulu's hand then. "Don't listen to him—he's just a kid who hasn't seen the world."His words almost left Ricky with a stroke, and he naturally did not let go. "What, should she listen to all the crap from you, who's supposedly an adult? I may be younger, but I at least have a conscience. You were the one who hurt her, and yet you're so thick-skinned that you'd still show your face around her!"With that, he turned to Lulu. "Tell him you hate him—tell him to let you go and to never bother you again."Irene was ju

    Zachary was left flabbergasted as he saw Lulu standing there with a club in her hands. He had never expected her to blindside him!"Lulu…?"What was she doing? He was totally confused!Lulu pretended to look shocked, and she stammered as she explained, "I-I was trying to hit Ricky…"Her words left Ricky even more frustrated, and he kicked Zachary from behind, catching him off guard and knocking him to the floor. Then, he leapt on top of Zachary, straddling him while raining fists on his face left and right…Zachary, stunned by Lulu's hit, could not fight back just then!…In the house, James frowned at what he was seeing from the cameras. "Should I get involved?"Ricky might really kill Zachary there…Isaac spared the screen a brief glance and said, "Go."James stepped out of the mansion right then, pulling Ricky off Zachary and warning him, "Keep this up and you're out of here!"Ricky spat spitefully at Zachary nonetheless.At the same time, James was puzzled—Lulu had

    Isaac glowered immediately at the sight of the diary. He growled coolly, "What are you doing? Feeling nostalgic, or is regret hitting you?"Irene was speechless, but since he had been behaving like that recently, she decided to ignore his jibe and said, "Let's go."She reached out, intending to hold on to him as they walked out together, but Isaac did not move, acting just like a pouting kid. As such, Irene withdrew her hand—she was not thick-skinned enough to have to depend on him on everything and she could walk fine on her own.She slowly walked, heading outside inch by inch! Isaac actually could not bear to look. "Trying to play the sympathy card, huh?"Irene simply ignored him—he was getting neurotic lately, so she did not want to upset him further or argue!Still, as she stubbornly inched forward, Isaac eventually walked over and carried her off.She pursed her lips. "So? Are you going to tell me what's gotten into you lately?"Isaac growled grumpily, "Shut up and eat.

    Irene actually forgot she wrote that down.Still, as she tried hard to remember, she recalled how she threw a tantrum after an argument with her father Lionel and ran out of the house.It was raining, and she was soon soaked through.That was when Seth happened to be returning, and seeing that she was alone, he offered her shelter under his umbrella. At the time, she thought that she was like a prince who came to her on a white horse—kind and affectionate.She was just fourteen, the age when teenage hormones started blooming, and she hence wrote down all those fluffy feelings. Naturally, it was embarrassing just thinking about that now.To think that she had done something like this!Still, she now finally understood why Isaac was behaving so weirdly and saying that weird stuff.So this was the root cause… but when did he read it?She then realized that it was in his study anyway, and that he could read it anytime. Obviously, she should throw it away and then explain ever

    Irene could not care less that her face was heavily bandaged.She aligned and dashed into the Twinrise office building, heading straight for the front desk when she spotted James stepping out."What are you doing here?" he asked."I'm looking for Isaac. Where is he?" Irene asked right away."He's out to deal with something," James said. "Is it urgent? Do you want me to call him back right now?"Irene thought about it, but gave up. "It's fine."She decided that she could wait until Isaac came back, and she turned to leave.When she returned to the hospital, she managed to make it back to her ward before Seth did his rounds and he helped her change her bandages."Can I stay home to recover instead?" Irene asked just then. Seth chuckled. "Do you hate the smell here? Aren't you a doctor yourself?""No, it's just cabin fever," Irene said."Well, sure. Actually, if you don't want to come here, I can visit your home to change your bandages every other day too."Irene quickly rej

    Isaac did not return even at 8 PM and Irene's calls were not getting through.It was only after she asked James that she found out that Isaac had left the country.How could he leave so quietly without giving her a head's up? Irene actually felt very miserable that she could not sleep that night, and was left staring at her phone, wishing that he would call.However, she received a call from the hospital instead."Sorry for calling this late, but are you a friend or family member of Zachary Slate?"Irene drew a blank, and asked, "Who are you?""I'm calling from emergency dispatch—we had to get your number from the patient's phone. If you're a family member, please come to the hospital at once."Irene frowned. "What happened?""He was wounded in a fire. He's being rushed to Cloud City General as we speak.""Understood. I'll be right there," Irene said. She then quickly got out of bed and put on her clothes before asking the chauffeur to drive her to the hospital.There were

    Lulu was certainly pale from shock when Irene saw her.Irene actually felt guilty and blamed herself for being skeptical that Lulu would faint from the fire."Are you feeling better?" Irene asked mildly. "The hospital might not be the best place to rest. You can come and stay a dew days with me, since Zachary would to stay in the hospital a few days before being discharged—""I'm fine. I think I'll pass," Lulu said, cutting her short.Irene sensed that Lulu was being distant right then.."Lulu," Irene said, taking Lulu's hand. "We're best friends, aren't we? You don't have to be a stranger. I mean, we even used to share the same bed…"Lulu pursed her lips. "Did we? I don't remember."Irene was not about to give up, just as Lulu's aloofness did not deter her."We did." Irene smiled."You should go. I should check on Zachary," Lulu said as she got out of bed and left, completely leaving Irene. Irene was disappointed, but did not hold it against Lulu—Lulu's aloofness might be d

    Irene felt spirited right then. Could it be a phone call from Isaac? "Hello?"However, it turned out to be Sheryl. "Irene, did you leave in the middle of the night?""Yeah," Irene murmured quietly, doing her best to hide her disappointment. "Why'd you have to leave? How could you still be so unruly? Don't you understand the state you're in?" Sheryl rebuked her right then.Irene smiled and tried to assure her mother, saying, "I know. It won't happen again.""You always say that, but you never actually do it."It was not as if Sheryl wanted to scold her, but Irene really did make her worry all the time.Irene naturally had to change the subject. "Mom, did something happen? Was that why you called me?""Yeah. Will you be home soon?""Yeah.""Well, you will find out when you get home.""Okay," Irene replied, and hung up.Holding her phone and hesitating for a moment, she called Isaac's number again.…Meanwhile, in Franconia…Remy's headquarters was grander than the offic

    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.

    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

    "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

    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

    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

    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

    "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

    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
