Irene only shoved at him briefly before responding in kind.They were soon stuck together like glue and pulling away briefly only seemed to send their passion blaring!It was yet another beautiful, stormy night, and Irene was eventually left nestling in his arms, her eyes half-closed like a languid kitten.She felt soft and limp, just as she asked, "How did you send Zachary back to Zidonia?"Isaac caressed her cheek just then, brushing her hair behind her ear. "Work. He's been here for a while anyway, so it's time he returned."Still, Isaac had a feeling that Zachary knew about Lulu but never told him directly. He was only too happy to go back to Zidonia when Isaac told him to—he would have asked something if he did not know or leave so quickly.Irene closed her eyes drowsily then. "I'm going to sleep now."Isaac gently patted her back.-Irene brought several books for Lulu when she visited the next day, since she was afraid Lulu might get bored.The location of Lulu's lod

Erin waited for another two classes, but Lulu still did not show up.After classes were over and she headed to the castle, she found Lulu and Irene having tea in the garden just as she expected. The weather was good, and it was just right for them to stay beneath the tree shade.She smiled and made her way over. "Hey, Irene."Irene quickly beckoned when she was here. "Come, sit."Lulu was surprised that Irene and Erin knew each other, especially since she was not familiar with the latter.Irene introduced her. "She's Isaac's sister."Lulu smiled. "What a coincidence."Erin smiled politely in return. "Yes, though I realized yesterday."While Lulu appeared surprised, Erin explained, "James was the one who arranged for your lodging."Irene added, "James is her husband."As Lulu realized with a start, Irene had a servant bring Erin a glass of juice. "We're having tea, but you should have juice," she told Erin—tea was not good for pregnancy.Erin was only too happy to accept th

There was a twinkle in Stan's eyes, but he did not agree to it right away. "I'll call her and speak to her about it… Or should I give you her number and let you ask?""Sure," Zachary replied. "I can get in touch to see if she's suitable.""Okay," Stan whipped out his phone and sent him the number, and Zachary's phone vibrated on the dashboard. -Zachary took Stan to dinner later to celebrate his return—it was just the two of them, and they drank a lot."Now that I'm back, it feels like you're acting weird…" Stan said seemingly nonchalantly, twirling his glass."Really?" Zachary chuckled coolly but did not press the issue and raised his glass. "Perhaps!""Congratulations. You get to come back even though you're always busy!" Stan raised his glass in turn.However, Zachary suddenly mentioned Lulu while they clinked glasses. "How's your cousin related to you?""What cousin?" Stan was confused, though he realized with a start before Zachary spoke."You mean the one with me at th

Lulu hesitated for a while before picking up her phone hesitantly.She unlocked it with her fingerprint, but she did not answer when she saw the familiar number and put it away instead.They must not rush things—she had to let things run their course to make it look natural, as well as remember that she was no longer Lulu Adams but a child care worker who worked abroad!-Meanwhile, Zachary reached home at 10 PM and heard Jean's cries as soon as he stepped inside.Frowning, he entered the room to find Erma, the housemaid, trying her best to coax the baby. "Why is she still crying?"Erma was a temporary hire and not a professional child care worker—she appeared fatigued and was on the verge of tears when she saw Zachary. "You're finally home, sir. I've not seen another child as fussy! She actually cried the entire afternoon!"However, she quickly lowered her head when she saw Zachary's icy reaction and continued, "We agreed that I'd only be cleaning the house and not take care

If she did, Isaac would really get upset with her this time!"Be safe!" Irene sighed exasperatedly but said nothing else.After hanging up, she stared at her door for a long while—she had no idea when it started, but Lulu and Zachary's lives had become two parallel lines, having no chance of intersecting.She sighed again.-On the other end, Lulu received a friend request from Zachary—he probably added her because he could not reach her the first time.[Hello, I'm Stan's friend and I heard you're a child care worker. Are you still in the profession at the moment?][Yes.] Lulu replied almost immediately. [May I see your certification?]Zachary was prudent—but anyone else would be if their child were involved!Lulu's heart skipped a beat, but it was fortunate that she already used a new photo for her certificate. She might be in trouble if she did not![Okay. Please wait a moment—I will take a photo right now!]After a brief wait, Lulu sent him the photo, and Zachary was

Lulu frowned after she tapped on the address—she was quite familiar with the place since she used to meet Zachary there!Still, she took a moment to calm down and replied: [Okay!]-Over in Franconia, Irene was still more or less concerned after her call with Lulu. After all, Lulu had gone through multiple surgeries without proper recovery, so Irene was worried her body could not take it!Isaac had arrived home just then and was left frowning when he found Irene distracted. "What is it?""You're early," Irene replied, coming to her senses."I'm done with work," Isaac replied, his gaze flickering just then—he could not tell her that he would like to spend more time with her now that she was back, could he?Pierre came up to them, asking, "Dinner is ready, sir. Shall we start serving?""Yeah," Isaac said and put an arm around Irene's shoulders as they headed to the dining hall."Did you come back early because of me?" Irene suddenly asked.Isaac was tsundere as ever. "I just fi

"Oh, it's fine!" Zachary smiled and picked up his cup of coffee for a sip.He looked up again after lowering the glass and said, "Stan told me that you had experience with many children abroad. What can you tell me about it? My child has been crying a lot since I've been busy lately, so I have to get a child care worker… Moreover, I'm a single man and not exactly the delicate type, so caring for children can get inconvenient."He certainly was not careless with her child, and he was left sighing upon remembering how Jean kept crying into the middle of the night!Lulu felt warmth in her heart seeing Zachary's attitude—any man who realized that he lacked the delicate touch was certainly giving his best!"I have cared for the children of several families abroad. You may read some of the feedback!" Lulu said, and handed him some of the materials she prepared. "I asked Stan to bring me back since staying abroad permanently isn't doing me any favors either.""Wendy Jones…?" Zachary co

"That's more than what I was paid abroad. Don't worry, I'll take good care of your child!" Zachary asked for a pen from the waiter, and after they both signed it, Zachary offered a handshake. "I look forward to working with you!"Lulu did not hesitate to shake it—she was just a step away from seeing her baby again!On the other hand, Zachary's heart skipped a beat as their hands touched, but he said nothing."Oh, by the way…"Zachary suddenly remembered something as he packed up. "I named my child earlier, but I'm not satisfied with it. Could I ask for a suggestion since you'd be more knowledgeable?"Lulu did a double take.She and Martin had come up with the name 'Jean' for the baby, but Martin was dead and herself disfigured. Likewise, she could not say anything against Zachary renaming the baby—it was fortunate that she was young, and her ties to the past would be severed after that.Still, Lulu pretended to hesitate and shook her head. "I'm just going to take care of your
