Lulu appeared helpless.

“Look, I didn’t tell you before, but the fight we had was really bad. He’s really angry, and he’s definitely on his

mother’s side about having me resign. I feel like he really wants me to be his full-time wife… but this is the one

choice that matters, isn’t it? Either I give up my career to be with him, or keep my career and give up on him. Can’t

bake your cake and eat it.”

Irene did not know what to say. “Well, you have no family here and no place to stay, so you can stay here. in my

room.”

Lulu smiled. “Thank goodness I have you.”

“The feeling’s mutual.” Irene smiled back. “I won’t know what to do with myself in Sunny City otherwise… How

about a little drink? It’ll help you sleep.”

“No thanks.” Lulu shook her head-alcohol would only ease their frustration for a moment, but would not resolve the

issue.

“Go home, Irene-you have a family now, so you shouldn’t stay out the entire night. I need time alone to think about

what I should do anyway.”

“Okay,” Irene said, since Lulu just might decide what she wanted after calming down too..

“Who knows? Zachary might stay loyal to you forever.” To Irene, since Zachary was willing to give up on his career

Tommy here if you have the time, Irene. I miss him.”

“Okay,” Irene replied.

It was midnight when Irene returned home, and just after she changed and got in bed, the door swung open, and

she looked up to find a figure entering.

Sitting up, she asked, “Where have you been?”

“Zachary called me,” Isaac replied, taking off his shirt and ready to take a shower.

“Be careful when you get wet. Don’t hurt your back,” she told him.

“Okay,” he replied.

“Wait…” Irene suddenly said, frowning because she smelled alcohol. “Were you drinking?”

“He’s in a bad mood, so I had a couple of drinks with him,” Isaac chuckled. “I’m quite far from you though. -how did

Instead, she said, “Go take your shower already. I have questions.”

“Yeah,” he replied and headed into the shower.

When he stepped out, Irene was waiting with the ointment for his back. As she applied it with a cotton. swab, she

asked, “What did Zachary tell you?”

“Just the usual grumblings,” Isaac flatly replied.

Irene frowned. “Why do I have this feeling that you don’t want to tell me?”

“Just not interested in talking about others with you.”

“Zachary is a good friend of yours, isn’t he? Stan even told me that he quickly claimed leadership over his family

because you helped, even offering a lot of advice…”

Isaac suddenly turned around, and Irene had to quickly get the cotton swab away from him. She shot him. a glare.

“What are you doing? You almost knocked the swab off.”

“What do you think?” His voice was raspy and his gaze dark as he suddenly raised a foot, knocking trene down on

the bed.

“Hey!”
