The Runaway Groom

Lulu closed her eyes in exhaustion, and Irene tucked her in. "Rest well."

However, Irene refused to abandon Lulu here and would make Lulu better no matter how hard it was.

She stayed for a long while in Lulu's ward, many thoughts crossing her mind.

Lulu would never get over Martin if she stayed here, and she might be able to leave her dark past if she started over in a new place and started anew.

She spoke to the officers, who agreed to her request considering Lulu's condition—the only condition was to get Lulu's consent.

Irene insisted that she would, and one of them said, "If you can convince Lulu to accept treatment and live well, you can ask us for anything you need."

In fact, they would have done everything they could for Lulu given what happened to her.

Irene did not need anything, however. "Just arrange for a vehicle for when I take her away."

“Leave that to us. Don't worry."

Since the officers were not arguing, Irene just had to work Lulu patiently.
