All Chapters of The Runaway Groom: Chapter 671 - Chapter 680

Ricky quickly ran up to Lulu the instant he saw her, hugging her without a care. "You remember me, right? You wouldn't have given me that look earlier otherwise… I thought I was imagining it, but you came. I was right!" "Actually, I don't," Lulu said.It certainly dampened Ricky's enthusiasm, but he did not seem to buy it. "You can forget everyone, but not me!"He was holding Lulu's shoulders, looking straight into her eyes!Lulu did not flinch, however, and she met his gaze. "Well, I don't remember you, but I understand that you've been good to me and always told me the truth. I've seen your rage toward Zachary Slate and how excited you were to see me, and I know that you're a good person."Ricky's eyes welled with tears from excitement."I'm not just a good person—I'm the one who loves you, and wants to protect you," he said, taking her hand. "You have to come with me."Nonetheless, Lulu shook her head. "I can't."Ricky lost his composure right then. "Why? Are you really wit

Isaac lowered his eyes, leveling a penetrating gaze into hers.Irene smiled. "What? What's that look for?"She stood on the balls of her feet, wrapping her hands around his neck, and kissed him.The touch left him stiffening and flinching.She gently pulled away and murmured, "Are you upset?"Before he could answer, however, she said, "About the diary…"Isaac's eyes narrowed subtly, as if he did not expect her to mention it on her own.At the same time, Irene kept her arms around his neck, and brushed her chin against his chest since he was that tall. "I must've been fourteen when I wrote it, but I was too young and stupid to understand love, and at the phase when I'm curious about the opposite sex. I don't remember Seth after I left that phase.""Really?" Isaac was skeptical."Yes. You were acting weird, and I somehow thought the diary was the reason, so I took a look. That's why I know what upset you—anyway, I threw it away already since it doesn't even have any sentimental

Erin darted inside her car the instant she saw Isaac. She did not even want to make eye contact, though that was less fear than her uneasiness with his coldness.She knew her place and certainly did not want him to misunderstand that she was a social climber, which was why keeping her distance was the best policy for her.For Isaac's part, he glanced at her car but did not say a thing.Lulu greeted him before leaving, while Irene walked up, linking arms with him as he headed inside the mansion."Did you send something in today?""Do you like it?" Isaac asked, watching her reaction.Irene's lips curled up briefly—she would be lying if she said she did not like it because no woman disliked sparkling jewelry.However, she did not love it that much and was perfectly without it anyway.What made her happy was Isaac's sincerity—it was obvious he was sincere."It's too expensive, so I wanted to keep it inside the safe in your study, but I didn't know the code, so I had to wait for yo

Isaac's mind traveled to the past even as he spoke—he would never forget that day no matter how long had passed since.On the other hand, Irene seemed to grow in anticipation as she looked at the chest she was holding, as if realizing something.She slowly opened it and froze!That was the silver crucifix she lost!She remembered it clearly—her grandfather had given it to her, and she had it on since she was a year old!It was not pure silver either, but almost a dirty hue, and the sculpting of the J-man was absolutely lifelike.As she picked it up and gripped it in her hands, Isaac never noticed that because he was caught in his own reverie.He was afraid of water a while after that, but he was Isaac Jefferson—he would conquer any fear and certainly not allow himself to develop any phobia! "A girl saved you, right? Actually, it was not her. Her grandfather arrived in time too, or she might have drowned together with that boy in that pool."Isaac looked up, his dark pupils tw

Ricky could not quite keep up, but he was already following Irene despite his confusion. "What are we going to do?"They were not professional crisis negotiators—they were not saving anyone even if they went up there. Moreover, with so many journalists waiting downstairs, they might get dragged into it."Don't you find it weird?" Irene gave Ricky a look after they entered the elevator."What's weird?" Ricky did not get it—perhaps he was not as sharp because it did not really concern him."All those journalists were already waiting before that person did it. Where could they have gotten the news?"Irene knows that it was no coincidence because this was not an apartment block or residential area.If they really wanted to kill themselves, why did they have to pick Globe Tower? Moreover, everyone was aware that she and Isaac would have their wedding here, but would it really go on as scheduled if there was a jumper the day before? Certainly not!"Right," Ricky understood then, b
