The Runaway Groom
Chapter 662

Chapter 662

Isaac glowered immediately at the sight of the diary. He growled coolly," What are you doing? Feeling nostalgic, or is regret hitting you?"

Irene was speechless, but since he had been behaving like that recently, she decided to ignore his jibe and said, "Let's go."

She reached out, intending to hold on to him as they walked out together, but Isaac did not move, acting just like a pouting kid.

As such, Irene withdrew her hand-she was not thick-skinned enough to have to depend on him on everything and she could walk fine on her own.

She slowly walked, heading outside inch by inch!

Isaac actually could not bear to look. “Trying to play the sympathy card, huh?"

Irene simply ignored him-he was getting neurotic lately, so she did not want to upset him further or argue!

Still, as she stubbornly inched forward, Isaac eventually walked over and carried her off.

She pursed her lips. "So? Are you going to tell me what's gotten into you lately?"

Isaac growled grumpily, "Shut up and eat."

He carried her to the dining room, and put her in her seat.

As Mrs. Watson started serving out the dishes, a pleasant aroma filled the room.

Irene picked up her fork and knife, feeling hungry just then.

Lulu entered with Zachary just then, having tended to his wounds. "Get seated already," James told them.

Zachary smiled. "Sorry for the mess, everyone."

James chuckled and joked, “It was quite the mess. I mean, laughing at your

face would be so satisfying it might actually fill our stomachs."

"Get out of here," Zachary pretended to snap at him, though he did not appear upset at all. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"No way-not with the good food here,” James replied as he picked up his knife and fork.

Things were harmonious at the dining table, but when Lulu left for the washroom, James shimmied up to Zachary and whispered, "I think there's something wrong with Lulu. You need to watch out for her." After all, James had seen the look on Lulu's face when she swung that club at Zachary.

She was obviously aiming for Zachary and not Ricky, not to mention that she meant for it to hurt!

Reasonably speaking, Lulu should be kinder to Zachary after losing her memory, but her face was contorted with spite at the time!

Still, Zachary's widened-was James not bad-mouthing Lulu there? "Why?" he asked with an edge in his voice.

James did a double take. He did not expect Zachary to overreact, especially when he meant well!

Zachary even scowled just then. "Are you trying to slander my Lulu? Just because you're jealous that I'm happy now?"

James naturally did not want to upset Zachary, so he simply smiled.” Pretend I never said anything."

Zachary snorted. “I knew you were jealous.”

James simply crunched on his celery, and then said nonchalantly,” Jealous? I have a babe at home myself."

“Tut, tut. So you were just running circles around me just to brag about that? You could have started with that. Why go the extra mile?"

James pursed his lips but said nothing.

Lulu returned to Zachary's side then, asking softly, "Are you finished?" "Why?" Zachary asked.

“I would like to go back,” she said.

“You're not going to talk to Irene about the old times? You used to be best friends.”

Lulu shook her head. "Let's go home."

With that, Zachary got to his feet. “I still have something to do, so I'll be going now."

Irene tried to ask Lulu to stay, but Isaac stopped her. "See you."

After Zachary left with Lulu, Irene asked softly, "Why did you stop me?" “You're still recovering. You should be resting after dinner," Isaac growled with a tone that did not allow refusal.

Irene headed upstairs checking on her children, but she could not fall asleep.

As she tossed and turned in bed, she remembered the diary she knocked over and what Isaac said.

Both things somehow seemed connected... could Isaac have been behaving weirdly because of that diary?

Turning to look at Isaac and seeing that he was sound asleep, she quietly got up and gingerly headed downstairs without turning on the lights.

She walked very slowly and had to lean against the stairs, but she finally arrived at the study and started reading that diary!

After pages and pages of nothing but notes, she froze when she saw the entry about Seth Hedge!
