The Runaway Groom
Chapter 1138

While Zachary watched Star and Lulu like it was perfectly normal, Ken was scowling impatiently for being treated like a phone stand.

"To the left, Ken. I can't see Star..."

When Ken did so, Zachary complained again. "That's too far left! A little to the right!"

Ken kept adjusting as Zachary complained, until he had enough. "I'm not a camera stand, Zachary Slate!"

Shoving the phone in Lulu's hand, Ken planted himself on a nearby couch, huffing.

Lulu held the phone, aiming the camera at Star.

The baby's little hands reached out toward the phone, and Zachary's heart could melt from the cuteness.

He would like to stay home and give her a bear hug, but work progress had been slow, and it was only today that they were starting to get things done. "Just wait for me, Star. Daddy will be home soon."

"You're returning already, Mr. Slate?" Lulu asked, exceedingly uncomfortable.

She would rather Zachary did not come back so soon since she was fine with spending time with Star like this.

Still, Zachary shook his head. "It would still take a while, but I'll make it fast."

So he was just sweet-talking his baby. Thank goodness it was not the case.

She almost bought it too...

"By the way, where's Vivian?" Zachary asked.

Oh!

It was only then that Lulu remembered Vivian as well and realized that she never saw Vivian after Ken came.

"I don't know... She never came back after she left."

In fact, Vivian was still driving straight for Zachary's hotel, with a roast goose sitting on the seat next to her. Zachary, however, could tell right away that Ken had tricked Vivian.

Still, everything was fine as long as Lulu was not affected.

After hesitating for a while, Zachary eventually said, "Sorry that you had to change rooms."

"It's nothing. I'm perfectly fine."

Lulu shook her head-there was nothing to be sorry about.

She could stay anywhere she wanted with Star and was content with just having a bed.

Star started tugging on Lulu's collar, demanding attention again soon enough.

"It's okay, Star. Let me show you a magic trick."

Lulu did not realize that Star had loosened her collar and picked up a napkin to cover her hand.

She began blowing at the napkin,

that.

Star squealed in delight and grabbed the rubber duck while grinning.

quacking.

It was an amazing magic trick to Star, even if it was a little crude in Zachary's eyes.

"Thank you, Ms. Jones," he said.

While Lulu was left speechless, she realized Zachary was staring straight at her.

She quickly turned away to button her collar again with one hand while still holding Star with the other.

Could he not have said something if he saw?

"Please show some respect, Mr. Slate," she said, still keeping her back to the camera.

"How have I disrespected you?" Zachary asked in turn.
