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

Erin asked, "Would you prefer a boy or a girl, James?""Haven't you asked that before?" James replied."When?" Erin forgot."Think."Erin frowned in thought but simply could not remember.Turning to hug him back, "Tell me already. When did I ask you that before?'"Pregnancy is really slowing you down, huh?" James smiled, caressing her cheek. "I told you—I'd love the baby whether it's a boy or a girl."Erin looked up into his eyes just then. "Would you still love me like you do after we have a child?""Of course," James replied, tapping her nose. "Stop thinking of such silly stuff."Erin nodded. "Alright, I'll stop. You should start packing already.""Just look at how envious you are, attending someone else's wedding." James chuckled, shaking his head. "It's almost like it's your own wedding."Erin shrugged. "Just needed a breather after all that cabin fever."She really needed to get out after being stuck at home for so long."Got it." James grinned.-Over at Zidonia, Z

Lulu did not like anything too showy—and most of the dresses were immediately apparently so, so none suited her.Sensing her disinterest, Zachary said, "Let's check elsewhere if you don't like them.""No, let's keep looking," Lulu replied, shaking her head—she had yet to go through the catalog."What do you prefer, miss? I can help," the manager said enthusiastically"Something simpler," Lulu said."Oh, you should have said so earlier. Let me bring you another catalog." The manager hurried off and took another catalog from the middle rack. "This is an exclusive catalog. Everything in it is the work of a designer who's quite famous in the business. Take a look."Lulu took the catalog but did not jump straight to it, and she only moved on after she finished the catalog she was browsing through.Still, her eyes lit up as soon as she saw the first page, as it was completely unlike the other catalog.The first design seemed to have fire as its inspiration. It was pure white, but the

Irene's family arrived in Zidonia a couple of days before the wedding, and Lulu and Zachary were on hand to receive them.Irene gave Lulu a bear hug as soon as they met, teasing her softly in the ear, "Things went faster than I thought, huh?""I didn't want to reject Zachary," Lulu said—she was doing her best to make things work between them."It's great if you have that mindset," Irene said quite emotionally. "I'm happy for you and earnestly hope you two will find happiness."Lulu clapped her on the back. "That's enough."There were plenty of people around.Just then, Stan Hill said, "Shouldn't you two be thanking me?"On Lulu's first return to the country after her plastic surgery, Stan had returned with her, disguising her as his relative.Still, Zachary joked, "If I'm thanking anyone, it's Irene, not you."Stan snorted. "Fine, I'm taking her away."Turning to Lulu, he said, "Come on. We're going back to Franconia."Zachary took Lulu's right then. "She's mine now. You can

"When did you become that nice?" James asked.Erin rolled her eyes. "I've always been that nice, and have I ever been mistreated? If I did, when was that? Do tell."James got in bed to hug her. "I'm just kidding, okay? I know you're the kindest and most caring wife."As he spoke, he pressed his lips by Erin's collarbone, and Erin cringed because it tickled. "Okay, stop it."James, however, moved on to kiss her ear. "I want to hold you."Erin turned and nestled against his arms, and with that, they both lay down in bed, peacefully and blissfully.Still, the bliss lasted briefly as James' phone started ringing.He whipped it out and saw that it was a call from Zachary. "We're at the restaurant. You can come over now.""Alright," James replied and put away his phone."Are they calling you for dinner?" Erin asked.James nodded, and she said, "Then go."James straightened his clothes and stared at her. "Are you really not going?"Erin nodded. "Yeah, no. I'm tired."James leane
