The Runaway Groom
Chapter 707

Chapter 707

Zachary clasped a hand over Lulu's mouth, ignoring her flailing arms as he shoved her into his car and snapped at the chauffeur, "Drive!"

The chauffeur quickly did so, while Lulu bit down on his palm in fury. Zachary frowned in pain, but was not letting go at all.

He kept her firmly restrained and cried determinedly, "I'm not letting you go -ever!”

Lulu glared at him. "I hate you and I'll never love you. You won't get anything even if you keep me confined, so get yourself another woman instead of wasting your time with me!"

"What are you talking about?" he growled angrily. "You're the only one I have."

"Really?" Lulu was obviously skeptical, finding all his obsession nothing more than an act as he coolly asked, "Ricky told me that you were married and had other women before, or is that a lie?"

Zachary had no comeback against that other than trying to explain, "My mother forced me. I was always loyal to you, and even if I did cheat on you, I didn't mean it!"

"Hah!" Lulu snorted in disdain. "You speak as if you have rhyme and reason to cheat, I almost have to give you a thumbs up! According to your logic, I'm allowed to hurt you as badly and then say I didn't mean it, aren't I? Or does the damage you've done not count?"

Zachary turned silent right then, because he knew that Lulu would not trust him after she became certain that he was rotten.

Silence was better than wasting his breath.

Soon, they reached home, and he alighted, dragging Lulu with him. Mrs. Slate just happened to be leaving then and she wheeled herself toward them when she saw them, watching Lulu as she said, "I've made mistakes in the past. Please don't blame Zachary and do get along with him."

Lulu did not even look in her direction. “The person who tried to kill me should pay for it with their life. I'll forgive him when that happens.”

Mrs. Slate turned pale-she played nice only for Lulu to demand her death and with considerable determination at that.

Keeping a woman like her at their home would just bring more harm upon them!

But despite her own opinion, Mrs. Slate could no longer coerce or browbeat Zachary as he was different now.

Unlike before, he was completely out of her control, and it was impossible to make him give up on Lulu. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Taking a deep breath, Mrs. Slate resigned herself to the fact that there would be no peace in her home now and she left.

Zachary sent the servants away too, and soon Zachary and Lulu were left in the room.

“Do you really insist on blood for blood?" Zachary asked as he stared at her.

"Yes," Lulu answered without hesitation.

"Fine," he said, and took out the knife left on a fruit plate, and held the blade against his own chest. "Would it ease your spite if I stabbed myself?"

Lulu panicked for a split second, but she calmed down soon enough. Zachary was testing her, was he not?

But no.

She would not give in.

Even if she had forgotten the past, she knew that she would never forgive a man who hurt her, let alone stay with him when he could not even protect her.

“You can stop pretending. Stab yourself all you want, and it'd be even better you run in through your heart, bleed out, and die. Then no one would bother me or threaten me."

Lulu was cold and machinelike, her words devoid of sentiment.

Still, Zachary calmly stared at her for seconds and slowly inched the knife toward himself as he watched Lulu. "I'll repay what's owed, if only to make things upto you."

With that, he stabbed himself!
