Chapter 706

Isaac told Irene before that he did not mind, but did he really not feel repulsed at all?

Irene became suspicious.

It was not as if she doubted Isaac, but if she were in his shoes, she would still feel slightly averse after what Harvey

did.

She would not complain or doubt their relationship for that, since it was normal for a person to have reservations-

and a person had their own feelings as well as opinions.

She would not blame Isaac for that, and they both probably needed time to let the whole affair cool off.

Settling down on the couch, she stared upwards at the clock on the wall, its ticking exceedingly clear in the silent

room.

She glanced at her phone, hesitating for a moment, but ultimately did not pick it up.

She simply lay down and pulled her blanket over herself, closed her eyes and slept.

Zachary had sought out James to complain, but as James was busy, Zachary returned to his office.

He headed home as soon as the skies started to turn dark, and only his mother was home.

Noticing that Lulu was gone, he quickly went upstairs and noticed that her bag was gone again.

There was a dull hum in his voice as he wondered if she had run away again.

Was she really not afraid that he would capture Barbara and her husband?

He was furious, but had no choice but to search for Lulu.

It was not until the next noon that Zachary found Lulu having lunch with Ricky at a diner.

He had never been this furious, because Lulu's actions were indicating that she really did fall for Ricky.

Why else would she constantly hover around him?

Still, Lulu spotted Zachary first.

She merely leveled a cool look at her before turning away, pretending as if nothing happened and putting more

food on Ricky's plate. "Have some more."

She was smiling, acting intimate with Ricky just to upset Zachary, who felt as if his nerves were throbbing in pain.

Even so, he had to bear with it as he made his way toward them.

Ricky was reveling in Lulu's affection, feeling as if Lulu was in love with him too.

Why else would she put food on his plate?

Putting some of her favorite dishes on her plate as well, Ricky said, "You should eat more too. You've really become

skinnier."

"Lulu," Zachary growled as he walked up to their table. "Are you really that happy about leaving me?"

Ricky wheeled on him the instant he heard Zachary's voice, turning wary when he saw Zachary.

"You're relentless, aren't you?"

Zachary was glowering, but he did not clash with Ricky, instead taking

Lulu's hand. "You're coming with me."

Lulu shook his hand off. “Let me go!"

Ricky intervened as well. "Let her go!"

Naturally, Zachary brought his men, and they knew what to do with just a look from him.

As they leapt forward to subdue Ricky, he glared with bulging eyes. "Let me go!"

Everyone ignored him, while Zachary dragged Lulu out of the diner. “You're coming home."

“Why should I?" Lulu asked coolly.

"Because I have Barbara and her husband."

"Are you sure about that?"

Zachary narrowed his eyes. "What's that supposed to mean...?"

Bzzt...

He kept one hand on Lulu while he whipped out his phone with the other.

It was the one of the men he sent to abduct Barbara and her husband.

"I'm sorry, sir... But they're gone."

Zachary frowned, but he should have thought of that.

Lulu would only leave if she had nothing to worry about.

"Got it," Zachary growled, hung up, and turned to Lulu. "Ricky hid them, didn't he?"

"I don't know," Lulu replied as she kept struggling against his hold. "Let me go, or I'm calling the cops."

"Do whatever you like-if you can, that is." Zachary's eyes turned cool and he wrapped his arms around her, shoving

her into his car.

"Let me go!" Lulu cried as she punched and kicked him. "Someone, help!"
