Chapter 660

At the next instant, Ricky dashed forward and pulled Lulu to his side, snapping, "Where have you been? They were all saying that you're dead, so why are you showing up now? And what are you doing with Zachary Slate? Don't you think he's hurt you enough?"

Lulu's heart stirred when she saw the disappointment in Ricky's eyes. He really cared about her, did he not? Why else would he be so concerned?

"Ricky, you're just a brother to him, so stop being delusional.” Zachary took Lulu's hand then. "Don't listen to him-he's just a kid who hasn't seen the world."

His words almost left Ricky with a stroke, and he naturally did not let go. ' What, should she listen to all the crap from you, who's supposedly an adult? I may be younger, but I at least have a conscience. You were the one who hurt her, and yet you're so thick-skinned that you'd still show your face around her!"

With that, he turned to Lulu. "Tell him you hate him-tell him to let you go and to never bother you again.”

Irene was just about to speak when Isaac scooped her up in his arms and headed inside the mansion.

"Ricky’s a hothead,” she complained worriedly. "He might start fighting Zachary."

“Let them sort it out themselves," Isaac said with an edge in his voice.’ Don't meddle, and focus on getting better.”

Irene was inconvenienced anyway, and so, she had to listen to Isaac. Outside, Lulu did not push Zachary away, so Ricky did it himself.

Thus the shoving began, with no one backing down.

As a scuffle looked inevitable, James stepped in between them, pulling Zachary away. "Just let Ricky have this one. He's a kid-"

"Who's a kid? I'm an adult.”

Ricky absolutely hated being called a kid-he might be relatively younger in their group, but he was an adult with responsibilities outside.

"I don't need your help,” Ricky snapped at James.

With that, James turned silent-he was not crazy enough to meddle when it was not asked for!

"Go on. Beat each up all you want," he said, leaving without giving a damn.

Ricky kept tugging at Lulu's hand just then. "Come with me." Nonetheless, Lulu shook his hand off and said, "I don't know who you are.”

She certainly did not remember him, but she could tell that Ricky was genuinely on her side.

However, she was not leaving so soon because she wanted payback, and staying at Zachary's side made that easier.

Still, Ricky was left in disbelief. "Did you forget how he treated you before, Lulu?"

'l did," Lulu replied-but she could still tell who the villains were.

Ricky frowned. "You forgot?"

Impossible!

"What did you do to her?!" he bellowed, pointing at Zachary just then. Zachary did not bother and he simply pulled Lulu along. "Come, let's go in already-"

Still, convinced that he had done something to make Lulu forget about him, an enraged Ricky lunged forward and started punching Zachary. “You two-timing, lying asshole! I'll kill you!"

Zachary took a step back, eluding Ricky, but Ricky relentlessly lunged at him again.

Unable to dodge, Zachary wrestled with Ricky, trading blows.

Soon, their faces were battered and bruised, and Ricky was clearly losing!

He did not know strategy and was just relying on brute strength! Zachary was incensed by then. "Stop trying to play adult, weaning brat. Learn to survive first!"

As he spoke, he launched a lightning quick jab at Ricky's face, but before it made contact

Thud!

There was a dull sound, and Zachary's felt as if his head was splitting, while his vision started to black out!

He turned and saw the person standing there!
