The Runaway Groom
Irene stared at the text in surprise.
Getting married?
Who sent this? And who were they marrying?
None of her acquaintances looked like they would marry soon.
Erin Gooding and James Cross, perhaps?
But they would not be making up so soon, would they?
While she was left confused, more text arrived.
[I thought about it for a while, but eventually decided to tell you because you’re my only connection.]
Irene had a hunch then, and quickly asked: [Lulu?]
[Yeah.]
Irene asked almost in reflex: [Where are you right now? Who are you marrying?]
…
Lulu Adams stared at Irene’s reply without moving.
She did not want Irene to visit her or attend her wedding—all she wanted was a simple life.
She decided to marry Martin York because he was the reason she found warmth in this unfamiliar city.
When she smelled the sheep’s fat during a team dinner days ago, she started to retch.
When an older forensic doctor asked if she was pregnant, everyone started to stare at her weirdly.
After all, she told everyone that she was single and never married when she first joined their squad,
and could not respond when she was suddenly asked if she was pregnant.
When she was too embarrassed and left at a loss, Martin stood up and snapped, “Why are you all
staring at her? Old Hammond is just messing around like usual, and you really buy it? Not everyone is
used to the peculiar smell of mutton, y’know. Start eating already!”
As he told off the others, Lulu actually believed for a moment that Martin was actually convinced that
she could not handle mutton, and that Dr. Hammond was just messing around… until Martin changed
her post from fieldwork to receptionist.
Nowadays, all she did was take calls, but Martin was clearly taking care of her.
When she had a chance, she asked Martin, “Why did you change my post?”
“You shouldn’t be hanging around gory scenes if you’re pregnant,” he replied. “Hammond is a veteran
and after thirty years working as a forensic doctor, he has an eye for things.”
He appeared calm and neutral, showing no disdain at all. However, he also believed in Dr. Hammond
from the very start and had told the others off to get Lulu out of a bind.
Lulu did not expect him to be so candid, and she actually felt embarrassed around him just then—it
was the first time she felt this way around a man!
She felt like the ground was shrinking beneath herself and decided to get an abortion after hesitating
for days.
However, Martin seemed to anticipate that and stopped her just outside the abortion clinic. “Are you
just going to kill off a life like that?”
Lulu remained silent, because she knew that while she could handle the hardship of being a single
mother, she could not handle a child having to live in an incomplete family.
She herself had suffered such a misfortune, so she did not want the same to happen to her own child.
Instead of making them suffer the ridicule of others, she should just stop them from coming to being at
all.
“If you’re willing, I’ll be your child’s father and treat them like my own,” Martin said earnestly. “I fell for
you at first sight.”
Lulu was shocked, but evasive.
She did not want to marry him with another person’s child, because it was unfair to him.
Likewise, she did not want her child to have to grow up in another man’s house, and she was skeptical
about Martin’s promise to treat her child like his own.
No bloodline meant no connection, and he would never be able to treat the child like his.
She had made up her mind, and she would not agree to it.
She would not keep the child either… until a certain incident changed her mind!
