Chapter 317

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.. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Find_Nøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“Who knows? Zachary might stay loyal to you forever.” To Irene, since Zachary was willing to give up on his career as a doctor for Lulu’s sake, he must love her to the bone anyway.

Lulu smiled faintly but said nothing.

As Irene headed downstairs, Sheryl was still in the living room. Seeing Irene come downstairs, she said, " Bring 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 you smell it? Are you a dog?”

Irene was speechless, and wanted to snap at him, “You're the dog!” 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!”
