The Runaway Groom

Chapter 422

Ricky, however, was not letting up. "I'm just telling the truth! What is there to hide?"

Mrs. Slate scoffed at Lulu then. "I knew it-what an unseemly woman you are. Well, this suits me just fine. Now that Zachary is married, there's nothing between you two, so don't bother him ever again. In turn, I won't press charges regarding the banners."

"Hey, are you even listening? I told you-it wasn't Lulu. She's been with me all this while, and I can testify for her!" Ricky snapped, indignant at how prejudiced was Mrs. Slate acting.
