Chapter 636

Soon, the door opened and Zachary said, "Come on in."

"Where is she?" Irene was actually anxious too.

"She hasn't woken up," Zachary replied.

'I'm early, then."

"Take a seat. Would you like a drink?"

"Fruit juice would be good.”

Zachary poured her a glass of fresh juice, and Irene went to check onLulu after half a glass.

She was still asleep, so Irene gently closed the door.

Unbeknown to Irene, Rainie Lang's eyes opened the instant Irene shutthe door.

She was thinking that she really wanted to know if she was reallyamnesiac, and whether she actually was Lulu Adams.

Quietly rising to her bare feet, Rainie tiptoed to the door just as Irenereturned to the living room and asked softly, “Are you donestraightening things out back home?"

“Yeah,” Zachary replied quietly. "I've divorced Ember Lindt and madesure her family was destroyed with no hope of resurgence. Now,everything I say in the family goes.”

Irene hesitated for a moment and asked, "Did the Lindts try to killLulu?"

Zachary's eyes became evasive. "Yeah."

Irene, however, saw that. "What else are you not telling me?"

Zachary became silent-she simply could not bring herself to say that hismother was the one who tried to have Lulu killed.

Even if Ember incited her family to talk Zachary's mother into it,Zachary's mother was the one who actually did it.

That made her a murderer for all intents and purposes.

Even so, when Zachary cleaned things up, he kept his mother out of it.“If you don't want to tell me, that's fine," Irene said, refraining frompressing the issue.

"No..." Zachary paused, and said in embarrassment, "The plot to killLulu... My mother was a part of it."

Irene was quickly left regretting her question-Zachary must be caughtbetween a rock and a hard place, as one person was the woman heloved, while the other was his own mother.

It must be the worst being caught between the two!

As such, she tried to change the subject. "Tell me, how did you replaceLulu?"

“Remember the day we had dinner at the yacht? Wasn't I telling youthat I saw this person who looked just like her? I followed your advice toinvestigate her in secret, and I even did a paternity test-it's not just thelooks, she really is Lulu. There's this couple who rescued her after theytried to Kill her, and they kept her as their daughter since they lost theirown child and couldn't have more, even renaming her after she lost hermemory.

"She really suffered there," Irene said quietly.

“It's all my fault," Zachary admitted, hanging his head.

"So? What are you going to do now?" Irene asked.

“I... I want to do this for myself," Zachary came clean right then. "It'sactually good that Lulu forgot all the mess in the past and she probablywouldn't forgive me for the rest of her life... But now, I think I have achance.

Lulu had forgotten her past, and as long as he could make her accepthim, he could start over with her.

It was a selfish thought, but Irene could not make that call for Lulu.Still, there was a question that greatly concerned her. "Are you sureyou can't stop her from getting hurt this time?"

"Of course,’ Zachary replied confidently.

For Irene's part, she was relieved as long as he could protect Luluproperly.

"She should be awake by now, right?" Irene asked.

“I'l check.”

As Zachary stood up, Rainie quickly returned to bed and pretended asif she had just woken up!
