The Runaway Groom
Caught by surprise, Martin did a double take.
Still, he soon became serious. “How do you know about Ricky Spencer? Anyway, we’ve already
gathered solid evidence on that case. You know how serious it is too, since he’s a murder suspect. You
really shouldn’t lose sleep over a person like him even if you were close. He’s not worth it!”
Lulu stared at Martin seriously in return. “He’s Irene’s stepbrother. I’ve always thought of him as my
younger brother too.”
Martin actually frowned at that and sat down.
That was a real shock, but the law had no place for sentiment.
Anyone who committed a crime must bear the consequences, just like how adults should take
responsibility for all their actions.
Even so, Martin tried to assure Lulu. “Maybe there’s a mistake. Don’t worry about—just focus on the
baby.”
Lulu understood that he wanted to calm her down, and she held his hand, squeezing it. “Try to think of
something.”
Martin grinned. “Alright, alright. Just don’t worry too much about it and be happy. Anyway, are you
craving anything? I’ll get it for you… Sweet and sour ribs, maybe?”
Lulu actually liked that dish, but she shook her head since she was in no mood.
She sighed. “Can you promise me? To help him?”
She was undoubtedly making things hard for a straightlaced, righteous man like Martin, who would
never bend the law for personal reasons.
Lulu knew that, and that she was not supposed to make Martin forsake his own duty.
He would be punished if it was a minor bending of the rules, but dismissed if it was serious, so she did
not want him to take the risk.
“I’ll prepare a hot bath for you.”
As Lulu got up, however, Martin caught her wrist.
“I’ll do it myself. You shouldn’t move around while you’re pregnant,”
“It’s fine,” she said, making him sit. “You’ve been on your feet all day.”
There was no way Martin would make her prepare a bath when she was pregnant.
“I can do it myself. You should go to sleep for now,” Martin said as he helped her to their bedroom.
Lulu had no choice but to listen, but she was left tossing and turning in bed, unable to sleep throughout
the night.
Martin sighed inwardly, but there was no assurance he could give her.
“It’s fine. Stop thinking about it. Sleep,” he said, gently patting her back.
“I’m sleeping,” Lulu replied. “You should sleep too, or you’ll be tired when you go to work tomorrow.”
“How are you talking to me if you’re asleep? Or are you perhaps sleeptalking?” Martin chuckled.
While Lulu was left speechless, he gave her a gentle peck on the forehead. “I’ll do my best to help.
Don’t worry.”
Lulu opened her eyes in the dark. “You really shouldn’t.”
She did not want Martin’s career affected over this.
“I know what I’m doing. Now, sleep!” he told her.
Lulu closed her eyes, but it still took her a while to really fall asleep.

As Martin arrived at the precinct the next day, he immediately asked one of his officers to bring him
everything they had on Ricky.
He understood that Lulu was concerned, and that he must put in extra effort because Ricky was Irene’s
brother, and Lulu and Irene were very close.
“Cap? We have a tip from our informant,” Johnny said as he entered just then. “The deal is set at
midnight, at the port.”
As Martin looked at Johnny, he said, “Bring me a map of the port.”
“Okay. Be right back.”
Johnny soon returned with a map.
There were many piers with cargo ships berthed, along with stacks of containers.
Their men could use those to set up an ambush.
He beckoned at his officers and began to make plans for their operation that night!
