Since Ricky was impulsive and easily got into conflicts with others, he was naturally on edge when he
saw Zachary.
Irene quickly turned to Zachary.
"It's late.You should head straight home."
She barely finished when a blur darted toward them and punched Zachary in the face.
Irene quickly caught Ricky.
"What are you doing?! Both of you are hurt!"
On the other hand, Zachary wiped his lips and looked at Ricky askance.
Still, he said.
"It's fine...I'll be giving up on Lulu, Ricky.Just do what you will with her—you don't have to be hostile
with me now."
Although he did not hit back, Ricky snorted.
"You're despicable, Zachary Slate.Playing goody two shoes now after what you did? She wouldn't have
left if you'd let go of her sooner!"
"Left? Where to?"
Zachary, who was completely in the dark, was naturally surprised by what Ricky said.
After all, Lulu did not have relatives, and her only connection was her best friend, Irene.He quickly
turned toward Irene and asked, "Where did she go, Irene?"
"I don't know," Irene admitted.
"When Lulu regained her memory, she told me she wanted to start over and would marry if she finds
the right person."
Zachary turned flustered, his tone urgent.
"How could you just let her? You could have called me..."
"She made up her mind, Zachary, and I think it's the right choice.
Do you really think you still have a chance with her? How is she supposed to stay with your mom? Just
let her go!"
Neither Zachary nor Ricky spoke—a curiously similar reaction.
"Anyway, it's time you both left.Don't make a ruckus when my children are sleeping," Irene said, but
neither moved.
Ricky then spoke.
"Look, she left because of us, and it's clear she's determined because she didn't tell Irene.She's
probably never coming back."
"So?" Zachary asked.
"Whoever finds us gets to be with her.The other stays away."
Though Ricky spoke his mind, Zachary stayed silent.
After all, he believed that they must respect Lulu's decision instead of making their own call.
What if she did not like the first person who found her? Turning toward Irene, Zachary said, "You should
get some rest.I'm going home now."
"Hey, Zachary —"
Ricky was going to press him if he was agreeing to it, but Irene stopped him.
"I need to talk to you."
Ricky stayed despite his reluctance, while Isaac headed upstairs.
Sitting at the living room couch, Irene rubbed her eyes to ease her exhaustion.
"What did you want to talk about, Irene?" Ricky asked.
Irene stared at him for a couple seconds before asking, "How's work lately?"
"What? I'm not working," he answered without hesitation.
He certainly had no intention of working since Lulu's departure left his heart a mess.
"What about you would Lulu have to be interested in?" Irene asked.
"Does she need a reason to like me?"
"Doesn't she?" Irene asked in return.
"You can't even focus on one job, so how long do you think you can stay loyal? Lulu is a mature adult
and she would definitely think further than you.You have no house, no career, and you're impulsive—
what part of you could she possibly like?"
Pausing for a moment, she continued, ''On the other hand, Zachary has a solid job, and that's at least
one reason for her to like him: she would have a steady life where she doesn't have to worry about
money.What would she get if she chose you?"
Ricky turned silent in turn, genuinely taking Irene's words to heart —she was making sense, after all.
What happiness could he offer Lulu? Irene passed him the check again.
"Resume your job or start anew business."
Ricky thought about it briefly and took the check, calmly saying, "I understand now, Irene."
Irene saw him out, though she sat on the couch for a moment before heading upstairs.She opened the
door but found the room empty.
"Isaac...? She was just about to speak when a pair of hands wrapped around her! She stiffened, unable
to help exclaiming, "Who is it?!"
