The Runaway Groom のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1081 - チャプター 1090

Zachary snapped grumpily at Erma even as he picked up his suit. "Pack up your things and leave. I don't need you here!"Then, turning to Lulu, he said, "This way, Ms. Jones!"She hurried outside without looking back, with Luna still in her arms.Fortunately, Zachary did not park his car in the garage, though he glanced at Lulu as he drove—she looked utterly worried, and there was pain in her eyes."Hurry!"Zachary did not drag his feet for the sake of his baby and drove straight to the hospital.Likewise, Lulu was flustered throughout the journey and only heaved a sigh of relief when they arrived.Since it would take a lot of time to queue up, Zachary called a friend beforehand to take a number at the pediatrics department. There was a vein throbbing on his temple and his tone was frantic—Lulu judged that he was caught off guard by Luna's sudden illness and that he was not neglecting her.Nonetheless, Zachary was on the phone for just a couple of minutes before getting a numb

Zachary was definitely a good father to Luna, and Lulu nodded in the knowledge that he was doing this for the child. "Your daughter is lucky to have you."Zachary flashed a begrudging smile and looked up at the wall clock to find that it was already 1 AM. "Oh, it's late…""You should stay with your baby," Lulu said. "Someone must stay with her at all times, since there's a chance she might wake up. Also, I have things to pack from my place—I'll move most of my belongings over to your house by tomorrow."Zachary nodded and hesitated for a while before asking, "Do you need a ride?""It's fine—there's no reason to give me one." Lulu waved him off as if it was only natural. "I'm not staying that far from here."With that, she started to turn to leave, not willing to let him find out where she lived! After all, Zachary had all the tools at his disposal to investigate her. She was concerned that he would suspect something if he somehow found out that Irene was the one who got that hou

Finding the book interesting, Tommy suddenly pointed outside and exclaimed, "Pitter patter!""Pitter patter, pitter patter, listen to the rain!"Tommy appeared interested as Isaac read it for him, and the boy pointed outside and exclaimed, "That's what we're hearing outside… I like nursery rhymes, Daddy."Irene smiled mildly. "As long as you like it."Tommy then lay down and wrapped himself in the soft blanket, his little legs lifted into the air.Just then, Isaac's phone on the table rang.Seeing that it was James and probably about work, he picked it up. "I'm taking this."Irene nodded. "Go on."She lay with Tommy and read it for him, "Home! Home! Sweet, sweet home! There's no place like home!""I like this, Mommy," he said, pointing at the last part. "There's no place like home—does that mean missing where we used to live?"The boy was quite smart for his age, and Irene smiled. "More or less.""I miss home too," Tommy suddenly said."Don't you like it here?" Irene asked.

Judging from the bottles left strewn around the floor, Zachary must have been drinking last night."Why is he drinking?" Lulu muttered—it was fine since he was an adult, but what if the smell made Luna uncomfortable?"Baby…"She became worried as she remembered her baby and hurried into her room.There were toys everywhere and decorations such as wind chimes—Zachary had clearly made an effort decorating it!Still, Lulu frowned and plucked down the wind chimes that rattled occasionally, since it would bother Luna sleeping.Seemingly sensing her from the cradle, Luna opened her eyes and started to sob.Lulu's heart felt like it could break at her cry! "It's alright, it's alright… Mommy—no, nanny's here!"She corrected herself and did not call herself mommy, since Zachary was prudent enough to set up cameras around the room.She was not going to stay and babysit Luna if he realized that.She gently picked up Luna, feeling exceedingly intimate as she pressed Luna's soft body agai

Vivian said, "Yes, Mr. Slate."As she turned, she glanced at the monitor, and then at Zachary, noting something off about his reaction.One must understand that Vivian had been paying close attention to everything about Zachary ever since she took the role of his personal assistant. Such is society: Once women meet a man with looks and money, they cannot help getting ideas—especially with a single father like Zachary.That was the case for Vivian, who was now obsessed with Zachary.Though she did not show it because she had yet to get a read on his temperament, she was wary since Zachary found himself a young babysitter.She could not quite put her finger on what it was, and she might even be imagining it—Zachary might just be watching the woman, concerned that she was not taking care of his child.She left, informing everyone about meeting in ten minutes and to be punctual.It went as scheduled ten minutes later, with Zachary mostly speaking while the others only speaking whe
