The Runaway Groom
Chapter 686

Chapter 686

Zachary had arrived without them knowing, and he was glowering as he warned Ricky, "Stay away from Lulu!"

Ricky simply wiped his lips, vaguely smiling. "Just because you told me to? Do you really think I'd listen?"

Zachary simply gave him a dark look before turning to Lulu. "Are you coming with me?"

Lulu averted her eyes from his for some reason, appearing evasive just then!

“Lulu,” Zachary called her again.

Lulu hesitated, but eventually walked to his side.

Ricky remained where he was, but he taunted Zachary. "Lulu loved me even before she lost her memory. Even now, the feelings she has for me remain in her body, so you can't stop us."

Zachary did not argue and headed straight for his car.

Lulu followed him and studied him gingerly as she got in his car. "I was confused, so I didn't push him away.”

Zachary said nothing, because he was in a sullen mood after overhearing Ricky's conversation with Lulu.

He had never expected Lulu to find out that his mother tried to have her killed, and he actually doubted his mother's suspicion toward Lulu before!

It seemed now that the fire was no accident-Lulu was a forensic doctor who had seen all sorts of crime. Even if she had forgotten everything, she would know more than the average person on how to commit a crime without leaving evidence behind!

And it was the case of that fire-there were no traces left at all, and even the ensuing investigation suggested that it was just an accident.

Once they arrived home, Mrs. Slate already had the servants prepared dinner.

She had not begun eating since she was waiting for Zachary and Lulu, smiling as she watched them enter. "Dinner's ready. Wash your hands before you eat."

She was a lot more cordial now and could act nonchalant despite her suspicions.

"Shouldn't you be staying at the hospital?" Zachary asked.

"The doctors told me that I can rest at home and I don't like the smell in the hospital. I'll be fine in my wheelchair anyway, but you should be careful too since you have yet to make a full recovery..." sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Find ɴøᴠel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Yeah, just stay home if that's what you want." Zachary cut her short impatiently and took Lulu's hand, heading straight to the washroom.

He said nothing on the way there.

Lulu thought that he had overheard her conversation with Ricky, but felt that he did not change the instant he took her hand.

He must only feel grumpy seeing Ricky kiss her, and her apprehension slowly eased!

When they returned to the dining table, however, Mrs. Slate began to wheel herself away, saying, "Could you come with me to my room, Zachary? I have something to tell you."

Zachary did not get up and instead said, "You can say it here, whatever itis.

Mrs. Slate pursed her lips, making an awkward face.

Lulu saw that and nudged Zachary with her elbow. "You should go. She must have something to tell you."

As Zachary got up reluctantly, Mrs. Slate looked up at Lulu with a smile." You can get started with us."

"Okay," Lulu smiled in return-both of them were evenly matched when it came to keeping up appearances!

Once inside Mrs. Slate's room and she closed the door, she told Zachary solemnly, “I have proof that the fire at our home was no accident. She did it and was trying to kill us with it!"
