The Runaway Groom
Zachary felt a little awkward-to be precise, he felt too embarrassed to start.
After all, he was well aware that coming unannounced would cause trouble for both Martin and Lulu,
and that he would be imposing.
Still, it takes one man to know another, and Martin turned toward Zachary just then. “You want to see
the baby, don’t you?”
While Zachary appeared taken aback, Martin said, “I understand that you’re no stalker and that you
wouldn’t have wished us well in Cloud City if you really wanted to cause trouble for us.’
Pausing for a moment, Martin then continued, “I understand how you feel, but I also hope you
understand-Jean may be your baby, but most of all, she’s Lulu’s. I won’t allow you to take Jean away
from Lulu… Unless Lulu gives her to you willingly.”
Martin knew very well that Lulu would refuse after carrying Jean around in her belly for ten months.
There was a blood tie that bound mother and daughter now, and there was no way it could be severed
at the drop of a hand.
Even Martin himself would have trouble letting Jean go-having that tiny person around him already
made his life more colorful.
Zachary would certainly like to take his baby away, but he also was aware that it was impossible.
If he did, Lulu would hate him to the bone.
Moreover, what would the people around Martin and Lulu think of them? Their tranquil life would be in
shambles!
In that sense, Zachary had been considerate toward them.
“I just wanted to see the baby, that’s all!” he growled through his teeth.
Martin lowered his gaze just then. “Lulu is a good person. Why didn’t you cherish her?”
Zachary slumped right then, his back arching as he rested his elbows on his knees.
Yes, he certainly did not-which was why he had been so stricken by regrets!
Still, he tried to make light of the moment and chuckled. “Well, you wouldn’t be as blissful as you are
now if I didn’t mess up.”
“True.” Martin did not actually deny it.
Zachary pursed his lips. ‘No bragging, please. I’d get jealous.’
Martin smiled. “I would never, but…”
Turning toward the distance, he said, “I’m really happy now.’
Like him, Lulu liked this peaceful life and having the feeling of home.
Her parents were gone, so he was his only family now-how could he bear to give up everything they
had now?
Half-joking and half-serious then, Martin said, “If you came to ruin things for me, I’ll make sure you
have to crawl around to find your teeth.”
Zachary nodded. He was naturally self-aware enough to not challenge Martin. ‘I’m not dumb enough to
fight you.”
Martin rose to his feet then. “It’s late now. Let’s go.’
“Where?” Zachary asked, looking up at him.
“To visit Jean, of course-you’re here, and that makes you a guest,” Martin said. “I’ll buy you a drink
later.”
Zachary got up. “Sure.”
They returned to his car, and Martin drove Zachary to his home.
Neither spoke, but things were not awkward between them either.
It was probably rare for rivals to get along like this too!
Arriving at his home in New Kent, Martin had Zachary wait downstairs while he got Jean.
Lulu had been waiting, and she trusted Martin as much as she knew about Zachary’s impulsive nature.
She was worried that they would come to blows, so she had been sitting restlessly on the couch.
She quickly turned when she heard the door open and quickly approached
Martin when she saw him. “That was quick.”
Martin nodded and said, “He’s downstairs. Do you want to see him?”
