Zachary was actually perplexed. "How did you find out?""That's not the point. Tell me, were you really planning to do that?!" Irene asked urgently.Zachary turned silent instead of answering, more or less aware that he should not have done that.In fact, he only dared to bring Lulu home to his family because she was amnesiac and would not get hostile against him and his mother. "I'm taking her there because I can protect her. My mom understands her mistake too, and we just have to be nice and make amends for the past. I'm definitely marrying her anyway, and we would be living together—""Would Lulu have accepted you if she still had her memories, or be willing to share the same room as your mother? You're bullying her and using her amnesia to cancel out the past!" Irene certainly would not accept Zachary's decision—even if he really wanted to make up with Lulu or marry her, they were definitely staying separately.Even Irene herself was not about to forget or forgive so easil

For the first time, Irene experienced what it was like to be too sore to get out of bed.No matter how grilling it was before, Isaac was at least gentle and considerate.But this time, it was all just jackhammering! At one point, she actually felt like he would kill her!As she was left fatigued, the man who left her limp stood before the tall mirror nearby, buttoning his shirt as he watched her reflection, asking, "Are you awake?"Upset, Irene ignored him. He then walked over to the bed, "Not getting up? You're having surgery today."Irene pulled the blanket over her face, so he sat down and pulled it off. "What's wrong?"Irene glared at him then. "That's my question. Just tell me if I did something wrong, instead of behaving so weirdly!"Isaac held her gaze for seconds before asking, "How many men have you fallen in love with?"Irene actually thought about it, but said, "Do I even have the time for that? Like I said, my dad kept pushing me to learn all sorts of discipline

Seth took a step back in reflex—the man standing at the door projected a horrific presence that extended to his surroundings."Who are you looking for?" Seth asked nonetheless.Isaac simply ignored him—he was instead staring at Seth's name tag. His expression darkened when he saw the name 'Seth Hedge'.Irene looked up then, and murmured, "Isaac?""You know each other?" Seth asked.Isaac simply strode inside, standing by her bed as he looked at her.Though he felt concerned, his words were somehow not so. "Are you happy now?"Irene ignored his weird tone, dismissing it as yet another one of his manic outbursts! Smiling at Seth, she said, "Allow me to introduce you to my husband."Seth smiled. "So he's your fiance? Hello…"He held out a hand to Isaac, but Isaac ignored him once again.Left hanging, Seth gingerly lowered his hand and quickly left the ward. "I still have work to do, so I won't impose."Irene shot Isaac a glare right then. "What's your problem?"Isaac snorte

Irene woke up at her hospital ward, and Isaac poured her a cup of water, asking softly, "Are you hungry?""No," she replied. "Have you acquired the drug I told you to get?""Yeah," Isaac replied. "I've already told James to administer it on Ian Jefferson—I'll hand him over to the old man after that."Isaac had actually asked around, and he found out that the drug could destroy a person's hippocampus.Irene was basically helping Ian forget old grudges—to offer him a clean slate.It was certainly a good idea. Otherwise, locking Ian up meant guarding him, in fear that he would escape and continue to wreak havoc."Henry's condition is serious, but Ian being at his side might help," Irene said. It was actually an idea inspired by Lulu's situation—one would not be upset over something they had forgotten. Still, Isaac did not want to hear anything about Henry Jefferson. "I'm just giving him Ian to spare myself the trouble."And there was nothing else to consider about that. Knowi

At the next instant, Ricky dashed forward and pulled Lulu to his side, snapping, "Where have you been? They were all saying that you're dead, so why are you showing up now? And what are you doing with Zachary Slate? Don't you think he's hurt you enough?"Lulu's heart stirred when she saw the disappointment in Ricky's eyes.He really cared about her, did he not? Why else would he be so concerned?"Ricky, you're just a brother to him, so stop being delusional." Zachary took Lulu's hand then. "Don't listen to him—he's just a kid who hasn't seen the world."His words almost left Ricky with a stroke, and he naturally did not let go. "What, should she listen to all the crap from you, who's supposedly an adult? I may be younger, but I at least have a conscience. You were the one who hurt her, and yet you're so thick-skinned that you'd still show your face around her!"With that, he turned to Lulu. "Tell him you hate him—tell him to let you go and to never bother you again."Irene was ju
