"Yeah," Isaac said. I've sent him off."Irene laughed. "Efficient, aren't you?"Isaac chuckled exasperatedly in turn. "I have to be—it's your order after all."Irene lowered her head and bit her lip as she purred, "I will properly reward you once I get home."Isaac certainly missed her since it has been over ten days since she had been to Minerva. The days felt like years, and yet he had to restrain himself too.After all, he would only hurt more if he kept letting her flirt with him, so he hung up right then!Irene was left staring at her phone, speechless and frowning. What was with him? Was he upset? There's no way, right?Worried and reluctant to let him stay angry, she sent a text to appease him.[Darling.]No response.[I miss you.] This time, it was accompanied with heart emojis.Still no reply!She then sent a cute emoji… and there was no reply once more.Irene blinked. [I'm going to get upset if you still don't reply.]This time, there was a reply, but it was

Once all the arrangements were made, they left three days later.Lulu's face was swelling a little as they boarded the flight to Franconia, as she had yet to fully recover.Still, seeing Irene staying with her and caring for her meticulously, Lulu teased, "Are you taking me for a child now? Doesn't it tire you, staring at me constantly?"Irene shook her head. "What do you mean tired? I'm not doing anything."Lulu held her hand. "You did nothing after running around and doing everything to help? Your husband's going to be sad seeing you work so hard… or more precisely, letting me work you so hard."Irene was speechless for a moment, but smiled. "You've really recovered well—you can even tease me now."Lulu sighed. "There are times I felt like my experiences were just a dream, but seeing my face reminds me that it's all real.""It's in the past," Irene told her. "Things will get better from now on.""Right. Have you found a training center for me yet?" Lulu asked."Irene nodded,

It was obvious that Irene had the idea, but Isaac simply smiled at her without telling her.Feeling the creeps, Irene snapped, "Why are you smiling?"Isaac released her then and said, "Go. Take your bath."Irene refused—she had to get to the bottom of this. "That smile feels malicious."The more she wanted to know, the more Isaac was inclined to keep quiet just to mess with her.With that, she grumpily shoved him away and walked straight inside the bathroom.-Everyone was overjoyed when Erin announced her pregnancy during dinner."That's great news!" Irene was earnestly happy for her—it was not easy for Erin's relationship with James to blossom and to have a child now too."I'm going to have a cousin?" Tommy asked, touching Erin's belly just then. "Is the baby a girl, Aunt Erin?" He certainly preferred that.Erin told him, "Who knows. The baby might be a boy."Tommy was a little depressed at that. "I'd rather have a sister. I already have a brother."Baby had no idea wha

Irene only shoved at him briefly before responding in kind.They were soon stuck together like glue and pulling away briefly only seemed to send their passion blaring!It was yet another beautiful, stormy night, and Irene was eventually left nestling in his arms, her eyes half-closed like a languid kitten.She felt soft and limp, just as she asked, "How did you send Zachary back to Zidonia?"Isaac caressed her cheek just then, brushing her hair behind her ear. "Work. He's been here for a while anyway, so it's time he returned."Still, Isaac had a feeling that Zachary knew about Lulu but never told him directly. He was only too happy to go back to Zidonia when Isaac told him to—he would have asked something if he did not know or leave so quickly.Irene closed her eyes drowsily then. "I'm going to sleep now."Isaac gently patted her back.-Irene brought several books for Lulu when she visited the next day, since she was afraid Lulu might get bored.The location of Lulu's lod

Erin waited for another two classes, but Lulu still did not show up.After classes were over and she headed to the castle, she found Lulu and Irene having tea in the garden just as she expected. The weather was good, and it was just right for them to stay beneath the tree shade.She smiled and made her way over. "Hey, Irene."Irene quickly beckoned when she was here. "Come, sit."Lulu was surprised that Irene and Erin knew each other, especially since she was not familiar with the latter.Irene introduced her. "She's Isaac's sister."Lulu smiled. "What a coincidence."Erin smiled politely in return. "Yes, though I realized yesterday."While Lulu appeared surprised, Erin explained, "James was the one who arranged for your lodging."Irene added, "James is her husband."As Lulu realized with a start, Irene had a servant bring Erin a glass of juice. "We're having tea, but you should have juice," she told Erin—tea was not good for pregnancy.Erin was only too happy to accept th

There was a twinkle in Stan's eyes, but he did not agree to it right away. "I'll call her and speak to her about it… Or should I give you her number and let you ask?""Sure," Zachary replied. "I can get in touch to see if she's suitable.""Okay," Stan whipped out his phone and sent him the number, and Zachary's phone vibrated on the dashboard. -Zachary took Stan to dinner later to celebrate his return—it was just the two of them, and they drank a lot."Now that I'm back, it feels like you're acting weird…" Stan said seemingly nonchalantly, twirling his glass."Really?" Zachary chuckled coolly but did not press the issue and raised his glass. "Perhaps!""Congratulations. You get to come back even though you're always busy!" Stan raised his glass in turn.However, Zachary suddenly mentioned Lulu while they clinked glasses. "How's your cousin related to you?""What cousin?" Stan was confused, though he realized with a start before Zachary spoke."You mean the one with me at th

Lulu hesitated for a while before picking up her phone hesitantly.She unlocked it with her fingerprint, but she did not answer when she saw the familiar number and put it away instead.They must not rush things—she had to let things run their course to make it look natural, as well as remember that she was no longer Lulu Adams but a child care worker who worked abroad!-Meanwhile, Zachary reached home at 10 PM and heard Jean's cries as soon as he stepped inside.Frowning, he entered the room to find Erma, the housemaid, trying her best to coax the baby. "Why is she still crying?"Erma was a temporary hire and not a professional child care worker—she appeared fatigued and was on the verge of tears when she saw Zachary. "You're finally home, sir. I've not seen another child as fussy! She actually cried the entire afternoon!"However, she quickly lowered her head when she saw Zachary's icy reaction and continued, "We agreed that I'd only be cleaning the house and not take care

If she did, Isaac would really get upset with her this time!"Be safe!" Irene sighed exasperatedly but said nothing else.After hanging up, she stared at her door for a long while—she had no idea when it started, but Lulu and Zachary's lives had become two parallel lines, having no chance of intersecting.She sighed again.-On the other end, Lulu received a friend request from Zachary—he probably added her because he could not reach her the first time.[Hello, I'm Stan's friend and I heard you're a child care worker. Are you still in the profession at the moment?][Yes.] Lulu replied almost immediately. [May I see your certification?]Zachary was prudent—but anyone else would be if their child were involved!Lulu's heart skipped a beat, but it was fortunate that she already used a new photo for her certificate. She might be in trouble if she did not![Okay. Please wait a moment—I will take a photo right now!]After a brief wait, Lulu sent him the photo, and Zachary was
