The Runaway Groom

Chapter 672

Ricky quickly ran up to Lulu the instant he saw her, hugging her without a care. "You remember me, right? You wouldn't have given me that look earlier otherwise... I thought I was imagining it, but you came. I was right!"

"Actually, I don't," Lulu said.

It certainly dampened Ricky's enthusiasm, but he did not seem to buy it. " You can forget everyone, but not me!"

He was holding Lulu's shoulders, looking straight into her eyes!

Lulu did not flinch, however, and she met his gaze. "Well, I don't remember you, but I understand that you've been good to me and always told me the truth. I've seen your rage toward Zachary Slate and how excited you were to see me, and I know that you're a good person."

Ricky's eyes welled with tears from excitement.

"I'm not just a good person-l'm the one who loves you, and wants to protect you," he said, taking her hand. "You have to come with me."

"No. I actually lost my memory because Zachary's mother tried to kill me," Lulu explained. "I was saved nonetheless, and thus decided to have my revenge. That's why I can't go with you."
