The Runaway Groom
Chapter 1020

Isaac could read Zachary's mind right away, but Baby was not going tobe a bodyguard.

How could Zachary even think of sending Baby to self-defenseclasses?! Dream on!

Irene came over to tease Zachary. "Your daughter's still in diapers.You're getting ahead of yourself."

Zachary sighed. "It's inevitable when you have a daughter, and I'd like itto be your sons instead of anyone else. At least you and Isaac won'tharass Jean and would actually help care for her. And when you'reJean's mother-in-law, you should treat her nicer since she's Lulu'sdaughter too!"

Irene was left speechless.

She was still very young—becoming a mother-in-law would onlyhappen so far in the future, and it was way too early to think about rightnow.

“I know," she said nonetheless. "Now let Isaac's rest. His eyes havejust recovered.”

"Are you saying that I'm pestering him?" Zachary asked.

Irene was speechless.

Even if Zachary did not did not mean it, how could he chase Isaacaround to talk about their children? Baby had just learned to walk too...How could they discuss marriage already?!

"What do you think?" she asked in return.

Zachary was left speechless and realized then he worried too much.Their children were still young!

He chuckled. "I'm just happy that I have Jean now."

Remembering Lulu's text, Irene then asked him, "Did Lulu call you?"Zachary shook his head.

Irene found that weird.

No matter how busy Lulu was, she would miss her baby, right?"Contact her when you're free," Irene said.

Zachary took no notice, however—he was convinced that Lulu had hernew life now.

Even if Martin was in some sort of trouble, his identity would neverpermit him to touch a married woman.

Keeping his distance was therefore ideal.

"Martin can have children with her once he's back. Don't bother,”Zachary told Irene.

Irene was silent but said nothing.

Pierre had instructed the kitchen to cook a lot, and everyone gatheredhappily around the table.

Things really improved after all those troubles, and Irene could finallystop worrying.

She had also mentioned to Isaac before that Tommy could attendschool now.

They had hired a tutor for him before, but they had to cut it shortbecause of their previous problems.

Now that she thought about it, going to school was the simplest andmost effective education method.

Isaac naturally thought about that early on—back when he chose tomove to Franconia, he anticipated that they should live near his schoolfor convenience.

Naturally, the school must be one of good quality as well.

However, Isaac had no intention of sending Tommy right away andinstead asked, "Aren't we bringing our children to the wedding?"Isaac believed that he had not done much as a father to care for hischildren.

Irene certainly wanted to do so, but she cared more about Isaac. "Ifwe're bringing them, we would have to bring more people with us aswell..."

"That's fine," Isaac replied. "I'll make the arrangements.

Irene said nothing else since Isaac had put it that way. "If that's whatyou think."

With that, Isaac makes arrangements for attending James's wedding.Zachary asked, "Has he fully recovered? Is it really the time to getmarried now?"

"He's more or less recovered,” Irene replied. "And it doesn't affect thewedding anyway. What, can't you stand James being happy?"Zachary pouted—he certainly could not stand it and was definitely alittle jealous.

Neither he nor Stan had girlfriends, and his love life was especially amess while James actually had something.

"He's the lucky one," Zachary admitted.
