The Runaway Groom

Irene's heart sank as she remembered Lulu's current appearance-she certainly would not be able to recognize Lulu either. However, personalities do not change easily unlike appearances.

If Zachary felt nothing, it was either him being too stupid, or he never loved her.

"Anyway, just watch out-Zachary's not that easily tricked," she warned Lulu.

Lulu was lying in bed, staring at the ceiling as she sighed. "I know. I'll be more careful for Star's sake."

She was willing to do anything as long as she could stay in Zachary's house, taking care of Star as they grew up.

After hanging up, Lulu fell asleep, but her dreams were troubling as she would often remember her torment during those hellish days.

She therefore woke up early, quickly gathering all the stuff she would need before heading to Zachary's mansion.

Zachary was just leaving the nursery when she arrived. "Good morning. Star woke up once last night. She's now asleep again after I changed her diapers."

Lulu hurried inside to check and was relieved to see everything was fine.

Still, she was left in wry amusement and pointed at Zachary.

"Sir, you're wearing your shirt inside out," she said he might have woken up too early and was still groggy. Moreover, he might be tired from taking care of Star, and work had been busy. Zachary sighed in embarrassment when he saw it. "Sorry. Didn't notice it earlier."
