Chapter 970

Irene cleared her throat, uncomfortable from Zachary's stare.

She brushed past him, asking, "What's with that look?'

"What did she call to say?" Zachary asked in return, his gaze still sharp as if to read something from her face!

"It's about Ricky," Irene simply admitted.

Zachary pursed his lips. "You visited him already, didn't you? He's your stepbrother. How could you be so cold?"

Irene remained unmoved. "I won't change a thing even if I went, and I'm needed here."

With Isaac away, she had to keep watch of their children!

Moreover, she just saw a reply on her forum about a Minervan optometrist. It was alleged that he was the best in

the world, and she wanted to make further inquiries and make an appointment.

"If you're not going, I will,’ Zachary said and turned immediately, striding out of the room.

Irene promptly caught him, asking sternly, "What is this? What are you doing?"

"I did the math," he replied. "Lulu's baby would be at least two months old, and she should be christened, right?

What's wrong with sending a gift?"

Irene was speechless. "Are you crazy? You're going to bother Lulu if you do this!"

"Everyone thinks highly of Martin, right?" Zachary shrugged. "He'd be generous enough to not mind me taking a

look at the baby."

Irene's eyes twitched. ‘I'm not letting you go."

Zachary chuckled. "What, you're going to put a leash on me?"

Irene stared daggers at him. "No, but I can have you tied up."

"Where did you get the confidence?" Zachary certainly doubted her.

A delicate woman like her, tying him up?

What was she thinking?

Irene kept staring at him nonetheless. "Do you insist on leaving?"

"Yes..."

"Eagle."

Upon Irene’s call, Eagle immediately entered the room.

"Tie him up," she said, pointing at Zachary.

Zachary was speechless. How did he forget about Eagle?!

Still, Eagle asked, 'Are you serious, ma'am?"

"Of course I am," Irene replied with a dead serious look. "Tie him up.'

Without another word, Eagle went to work.

"Hey, hey, hey!' Zachary cried even as he struggled. "Are you for real?!"

"Sorry, sir. Just following orders," Eagle said, easily subduing Zachary and pinning him on the desk while whipping

some rope out of nowhere.

It was thin, but it restrained Zachary solidly, preventing him from moving at all!

With his face pressed against the desk, he cried, "Are you kidding me, Irene?!"

"You're going to make a mess, so I have to stop you,' Irene replied, still holding his gaze.

"How am I messing around?!’ Zachary bellowed.

Irene did not want to waste her breath, however, and turned to leave the study.

"Irene! Tell Eagle to release me!" Zachary snapped.

As Irene remained unmoved, he said, "How long have you been with Isaac? How did you learn of his unreasonable

nature so soon?"

Irene kept ignoring him.

"Stop, Irene. Let's talk about this."

Irene finally paused and turned to look at him. "Promise not to bother Lulu, and I'll let you go."

Zachary groaned. ’I just want to see the baby..."

"No!" Irene refused summarily.

Zachary frowned. ’I just want to see my-"

Irene strode up and clasped a hand over his mouth!

As Zachary gaped in disbelief at her, Irene released him and dusted her hand, snapping, 'The baby is Lulu's, not

yours!"
