Chapter 1045

Then, everyone burst into laughter!

Tommy was confused-why was everyone laughing?

Did he say something wrong? Why did he feel like he was being mocked and why?

Blinking his round, large eyes, he asked, "Why is everyone laughing?"

Irene simply picked him up to her seat. "You just stick with me, okay?"

"Why?" Tommy asked.

Irene had no idea how to explain, when Zachary butted in. Because you're a bother."

Tommy frowned. "How did I bother you?"

Zachary was speechless, since Tommy was bothering James and not him.

Still, he said, "James just got married and you're bothering his bride. How is that not a bother?"

"Aunt Erin is his wife, but she's my aunt! And she said she loves me more."

Zachary grinned. "Well, James can really love your aunt-"

"Shut it."

He was cut short as everyone was glaring at him coolly, his poor choice of words incurring their wrath.

He gave in immediately. "Okay, my bad."

Irene in turn coaxed Tommy to sleep, saying that the plane would land once he woke up.

Tommy could not sleep, so Irene brought him some food and some picture books, but he still was not drowsy.

By the time he was, their plane was almost landing, so Isaac carried him as they disembarked.

They called ahead, so Sheryl and the servants at the castle had already cleaned up and waited at the front door. As

such, everyone could rest once they returned, and there was food waiting as well.

Irene took Isaac to their room, telling him then that she returned in a hurry because of Lulu and that she would

return to Zidonia.

Isaac naturally would not stop her, but he said, "I'm going with you.'

Irene shook her head. "It's fine. I'm sure you have a lot of stuff waiting at work—I just need Eagler with me."

Isaac had more to say, but she wrapped her hands around his waist. "It's alright. Just listen to me for once, okay?"

Isaac sighed and patted her head. "Call me if anything happens. Don't do anything dangerous."

Irene nodded repeatedly and left before she even had a drink since there happened to be a direct flight soon.

Zachary was busy taking care of his daughter in his room and finally noticed that Irene was gone when it was time

for dinner.

"Where's Irene?" he asked.

Isaac looked up at him but stayed silent.

Zachary pursed his lips. "What?"

Isaac was not bothered to answer. "Eating can't keep you quiet, it seems."

James and Erin were holding back their laughter.

Zachary turned toward them. "That's a married couple for you-you're both equally unlikeable.'

"No more than you are," James shot back. "Can't even keep your mouth shut during dinner."

Zachary was left speechless.

Irene took a cab to New Kent after disembarking from her flight and contacted the officer who called her.

He gave her a ride to visit Lulu in a police car.

Irene never asked anything along the way, and a foreboding feeling struck when the police car stopped outside a

hospital.

She hesitated but did not get out of the car. "Lulu is here?"

"Yeah," the officer replied and got out of the car. "You should come too."

Eagle opened the door for Irene, who stared outside for a moment before sighing heavily and getting out of the

car.

She stood by it as she looked up and entered the hospital with the officer.

They traversed through the hallways and arrived at a ward when the officer said, "You best prepare yourself."
