Chapter 635

Irene replied. "Nope. What is it?"

She was just reunited with her younger son after being put through somuch, so she certainly did not want to leave the house without someproper hugs and kisses.

And right now, nothing else mattered more than staying home with hersons.

“I have Lulu in custody, but she's amnesiac and doesn't recognize me...It wouldn't be a far cry to say that she's very hostile, too. Either way, I'mnot getting through to her, but I think you can.”

Irene actually hesitated then. "Can this wait?"

Her second son just returned home and he was still quite weak. Theyhad to settle him in and be extra attentive when it comes to his care."Fine, I just sedated her anyway," Zachary said. "She will be down foraround four hours."

Hanging up, Irene put away her phone and carried Tommy to Sheryl.She did not actually even have to care for her second son- Sheryl hadbeen taking care of Tommy since he was born, and she was naturallyup to the task of caring for Irene's second son, too.

All Irene did was stand nearby and watch with Tommy as Sheryl wentto work.

Isaac was doing the same too.

Though he was silent and impassive, there was a rare look of serenityand tenderness on his face.

This was certainly a moment of peace and tranquility for the family."Irene."

Irene looked up and happened to meet his eyes.

Her lips curled into a smile. "Yeah? What is it?"

"We have both our children back with us now, and I was thinking thatwe never had a wedding ceremony. Don't you think it would only befulfilling to make up for it with one?"

Irene actually frowned. "I'm too tired."

She had not properly rested for a long while, whereas a wedding wasgoing to take considerable effort and preparations.

Even so, the ceremony did not matter to her at all-would they still needproof when they already had two children?

Still, Isaac read her mind, and he took Tommy off her hands."Weddings prove nothing, but it'd enlighten everyone else as to whoyou are."

Indeed, Irene's relationship with him was opaque in the eyes of others,and the wedding would serve to prove it.

“Isaac is right," Sheryl said, looking up at Irene then. "Back when youfirst married him-"

Then, realizing that she was speaking out of turn, she

quickly stopped herself. "Anyway, a wedding would be good."

Sheryl had wanted to say that Irene did not marry into the Jeffersonfamily through savory means, and it would not be a far cry to say thatshe was forced into it.

Moreover, Isaac had kept their marriage hidden, and not many knewabout it.

Even if more were aware now with their two children, it was still avague relationship in the eyes of others.

“Legitimacy matters, and you should listen to Isaac here for yourchildren's sake,” Sheryl said, but there was satisfaction in her tone now.“You may have done it for my sake at first, but I've always thought thatnot having official documents and a proper wedding made it as if yourmarriage was ugly and must be kept hidden for that. Now that you cando it, why not?"

"That's right. You should do it!" Mrs. Watsons chimed in.

With that, Irene had no choice but to agree. "Alright. Let's do it."

Isaac grinned in satisfaction, putting a hand around her while stillcarrying Tommy with others. "You don't have to do a thing. I'll arrangeeverything."

"Yeah," Irene replied, fiddling with her son's soft, fair hand, kissing itand rubbing it.

While she did so, she suddenly told Isaac, "I might have to leave later.""Where to?" he asked.

"To meet Zachary. He called me, saying that he found Lulu and wantedme to take a look."

"Lulu? As in Lulu Adams?"

"Yeah," Irene replied. “It seems that she survived, although I wouldhave to meet Zachary to actually know what's going on."

"I see," Isaac said. "Ask the chauffeur to take you there."

"Okay."

Irene left an hour later to the address Zachary sent her. Once shearrived, she knocked on the door...
