The Runaway Groom Chapter 850

Irene gingerly asked Lulu, “Are you alright? I just wanted to get a nicer hotel. I didn’t think we would run into Zachary—”

“Irene.” Lulu cut her short with a smile. “I’m fine.”

Studying Lulu’s face for seconds, Irene decided to keep quiet after ensuring that she was.

Changing the subject, she asked, “You’ve been away for a while. Anything you’d like to eat? It’s my treat.”

Lulu thought about it. “Strawberry cake.”

Irene was speechless—they could get that anywhere!

“Just cake? It’s not that often you come back.”

“Fine, but after dinner.”

Martin joined them as they headed out to eat, before getting the strawberry cake as well.

“When can I take a look at the body?” Lulu asked.

“Anytime. Isaac has already arranged everything with the hospital,” Irene said. “But you should rest before you go—it was a long journey and you’re pregnant.”

“No. If it’s alright with you, I’d like to get it done soon and head home.”
