The Runaway Groom

Chapter 563

Peter gloated smugly. ‘Of course I do. I was the one who planned it all out!’

Although the conspiracy to murder Lulu was his, it was Zachary's mother who pulled the trigger.

The cops would never trace it back to him since he covered his tracks well, too.

'Oh, it's all Ember... she kept saying that Lulu was an eyesore, and that her marriage with you would never be peaceful with her around. That's why she talked me into this, so that I'd charm your mom into doing the deed. Well, it's good that your mom was being so agreeable and agreed to it
