Chapter 621

Zachary turned toward the voice calling him and became at onceimpatient and excited when he saw that it was Irene.

Striding toward her, he excitedly grabbed Irene by the arm, blabbering,”Irene, Lulu... I saw her. She's alive. She's alive!"

Irene actually thought that he was hallucinating from missing Lulu toomuch and she simply played along, nodding. "I know. Let's go backnow."

Zachary glared at her. "You don't believe me?"

"Of course I do," Irene replied a little too quickly.

“You're obviously not listening!" Zachary took a moment to calm down,before continuing seriously, “I really saw her! I wasn't seeing things orhallucinating. She's real!"

Irene stared at him just then.

He looked so serious it could well be real, so he asked, "Where did yousee her?"

"Just now. She's a stewardess named Rainie Lang."

"Rainie... Lang?"

"She didn't recognize me and she's even changed her name. I'mguessing she's amnesiac.”

Zachary spoke with such conviction that Irene quickly said, “Take me toher."

Zachary summoned the manager so that she would believe him. "Callup the stewardess just now."

"Actually, I've already let her off early,” the manager replied. “I mean,she was bumbling around, even insulting you..."

"Do you have her address?" Zachary asked.

"No," the manager replied.

"How about her number?"

The manager nodded, and Zachary said urgently, “Give it to me."Irene stood nearby, watching quietly as Zachary got Rainie's number,but stopped him just as he was about to call the number. "Come withme."

Pulling her to a quiet place, Irene told him, “I know you're impatient, butweren't you saying that she doesn't remember you? Don't you thinkyou're going to scare her off if you called her out of the blue?"Zachary thought about it and decided that Irene was right.

In fact, Rainie was already repulsed by him, even treating him as ascoundrel.

It was fortunate that Irene warned him or he would really have scaredher away!

"Well, what should we do now?" Zachary appeared flustered-he wastoo excited to calm down and think.

"Investigate her quietly. Right now, we need to go back,” Irene said,since she had been out for a while.

"But..."

“It's pointless to wait here since she left work, so come again tomorrowand track her down-replace out where she lives. It would be easy todetermine if she is Lulu that way."

Zachary actually thought that it was at once reasonable and possible!"Alright, let's do that."

Still, as they returned to their table, Zachary suddenly felt no appetiteeven with all the gourmet selection in front of him.

All he could think about was Lulu's face, and he was rejoicing that hecould see her again-and perhaps make amends.

Life was worth living at that thought, improving his mood so much thathe started eating again.

Irene glanced at Zachary just then. She was curious about thestewardess called Rainie, but she did not have the time to pay it thatmuch attention.

She decided to let Zachary investigate it himself, since she had yet toreplace her own missing child-she could not afford to divert her time andefforts.

The dinner ended on a happy note, with Mark and his research teambidding Irene farewell.

Irene wanted to speak further with Zachary, but he had already left."Who are you looking for?" Isaac asked.

Irene stopped looking around right then and said, "No one." Isaac wasclearly doubtful. "Can't even tell me?"
