The Runaway Groom

The Runaway Groom Chapter 918

Irene was not even in Zidonia, but she could hear the urgency in Lulu’s voice.

Irene asked, “Is it Ricky?”

“No, it’s M-Martin…” Lulu said and pleaded, “Irene, I don’t have much time. Please hurry…”

“Is the baby coming too?!” Irene gasped.

“Yes, but listen—Martin was shot… they say the bullet was near his heart… S-Save him…”

Irene was afraid of telling Lulu that she was abroad right then. “Got it. I’ll be right over.”

Irene hung up, and she was planning to call James when she realized that it would take her over ten hours to return to Zidonia.

“Don’t say a thing, Finn. Just listen to my instructions: go to Brian Adams and ask him to head over to New Kent. I’ll send you the exact address later.”
