The Runaway Groom Chapter 1196
In the evening, Irene arrived at the restaurant where Zachary booked.Lulu was there too, and as Zachary carried Star, they looked like a happy family of three from afar.As she walked over, Lulu saw her and got up. "Irene.""Sorry to keep you waiting," Irene said as she reached them. "There was a little traffic.""It's alright—we just arrived." Lulu smiled. "Come on, sit."As Irene pulled out a chair, she held out her hands. "Girls really are quieter. Let me carry her."While Zachary passed Star, he quipped, "What, are you envious of me having a daughter? Not satisfied with having only sons?"Irene shot him a look. "Don't get on my nerves now.""But you have two sons." Zachary smiled. "And you'd have two daughters when they marry, while my baby will leave me lonely when she marries.""Why, yes." Irene nodded. "Then I should properly suck up to you so that you'd let her marry into my family."Lulu snickered even as she poured Irene a drink. "Aren't you getting ahead of yourse

As Irene chugged her glass of wine, Zachary followed suit.Then, trading glances, they both chuckled.Irene then put down her glass to look at Star, whom she was still holding in her arms.While the baby did not seem to recognize Irene, she was at least not crying.Her eyes were so round, and her eyelashes dark and curly.Irene could not resist pinching those soft, white cheeks. "She’s just so adorable.""You have two kids yourself. Quit getting all envious."Irene smiled. "Right, my sons are adorable too."When the waiter arrived with food, Lulu stood up, holding out her hands to Irene. "You can pass Star to me. You should eat properly.""It's alright. Let me hold her," Irene replied.Zachary tugged on Lulu's raise to make her sit. "It's fine. It's not a problem even if Irene didn't do it."Irene was left speechless. "Aren't we friends? Am I not important?"Zachary chuckled. "Yes, but the missus is even more important.""I feel like such a tool," Irene snapped. "How heart

Irene felt dizzy from alcohol, even though the percentage was low.It was basically why she did not drink.And since Zachary drank and Lulu had to take care of Star, Irene went back to the hotel alone.Once she got to her room, she whipped out her phone and called Isaac, who soon answered."Hello."Irene's heart thumped upon hearing his deep voice. It seemed that she really loved him, as just hearing his voice sends her head aflutter.Just then, the lights on the ceiling were especially blinding, and she rested her arm over her eyes to keep the lights out while groaning into the phone as she held it with her other hand, "I miss you, Isaac."Isaac was still in the office just then, holding his phone with one hand while he flipped through a document with the other.Still, his other hand paused and lowered at Irene's words, and he flexed his wrist as he asked, "When are you coming back?"That was not what Irene wanted to hear, and she complained, "I said I miss you.""I'll tel

Irene had no idea when she hung up, but she fell asleep with her cellphone in her hand.-Meanwhile, Zachary did not get drunk even though he finished the entire bottle of expensive red wine, since it was nothing to him.Even after Lulu told him to go to bed soon, he simply lay on it without bathing, while Lulu pored over Star.After lying around for a while, he left to take a bath, and Lulu returned just as she stepped out.Feeling a presence, she turned to find him standing at the doorway in just his bathrobe."Why aren't you sleeping?" she asked.Zachary, however, walked up to her, and things got weird in the room, especially since Zachary's gaze was blazing and Lulu could not ignore it.As she lowered her head and avoided looking him in the eye, he lifted her chin. "Look at me, Lulu."As Lulu looked up, Zachary leaned in and kissed her with tender affection, his lips gently brushing against hers.As everything turned quiet, time seemed to turn still as Lulu watched him.

The love they had back then was so simple, with no strings attached."I'll try my best to do right by you…" Lulu began."No, no…" Zachary said as he looked up at her. "You've never done anything wrong from the start. It's my immaturity that led things to this, but I will do my best to protect you and Star from now on, to protect our little family. I'll become stronger to be your refuge, so that you won't have to spend your life adrift."Lulu turned away, her tears flowing unwittingly.Zachary turned her face to look at him. "Eyes on me. Don't hide."Lulu pursed her lips as she caressed his face in turn and reared her chin to kiss him.Zachary looked her longingly in the eye and kissed her on the brow, her nose, and her soft lips that she yearned for day and night.He slowly undressed her, showering her with kisses. "Eyes on me.""Yeah…" Lulu murmured softly, her fingers clenching on her pillow as she kept her eyes on him.She told herself inwardly that he was Zachary Slate, th

Lulu replied, "I'm fine."Zachary nodded. "Right, and this is Mrs. Kingsley."Lulu smiled and nodded at the woman. "Hello.""This is my wife," Zachary then introduced in turn.Mrs. Kingsley promptly greeted her respectfully. "Good morning, ma'am."Lule was not used to the title but nodded politely and did not deny it.Zachary then put an arm around her and took her back to his room."Why didn't you wake me up?" Lulu asked."You were sleeping soundly," Zachary pointed out.He could not bear to wake her up after wearing her out last night.Gathering her in his arms, he said, "I'm very happy, Lulu."Lulu hugged his waist in turn. "Me too."Zachary gave her a peck on the forehead. "I'll be waiting outside. Let's eat together.""Haven't you eaten?" Lulu asked."No, I was waiting for you.""You don't have to wait," Lulu told him. "You should eat when you're hungry.""Okay," Zachary said.Mrs. Kingsley cooked for them.Star woke up just as they were about to start eating, an

Zachary headed to Star's room, while Lulu returned to the kitchen to prepare the weaning food.Star was up although she just fell asleep, and Lulu said, "She should be sleeping longer.""I wanted to pick her up," Zachary replied.Lulu frowned. "So you woke her up?""She wasn't crying." Zachary shrugged.Lulu was speechless but said nothing.When she was done cooking, Star would be tired from playing and ready to eat anyway.-Over the next few days, Zachary was exceedingly busy, checking out the wedding venue and taking Lulu to the bridal boutique…Time passed quickly since there was plenty to do, and Irene received their wedding invitation in two weeks after preparations were finished.While Irene knew that Zachary and Lulu were warming up to each other, she was still surprised that they were holding the wedding so soon."Are you going back to Zidonia?" Tommy asked.He had no problems with that, but it was not the case for Baby, who was still clingy despite being able to

Unable to decide, Irene turned toward Isaaac.And worried that Isaac would say no, Tommy skidded off his chair, running up to Isaac and tugging on his sleeve as he coaxed, "Daddy? Let's go, please?'Isaac turned toward his son, pinching his cheek as the boy grinned. "Daddy…""Yeah." Isaac tousled Tommy's hair. "Let's go.""Yippee!!!" Tommy exclaimed, jumping around happily.Erin was frowning in turn. "Aren't you getting ahead of yourself? Eat your dinner."As Tommy blinked, Irene beckoned, "Over here, Tommy."Tommy walked up to her, and she picked him up. "Oh, you're getting so heavy that I can't carry you anymore."Tommy blinked his lively round eyes. "Are you calling me fat, Mommy?"Irene made a thoughtful face as she scanned him from top to toe before commenting solemnly, "You've been putting on weight lately."That was not actually the case—the boy's weight was just right, even with his little cheeks fleshing out just like Isaac.As Irene hugged him and gave him a peck o
