Chapter 637

Zachary asked gingerly, “You're awake?"

Rainie remained wary as he stared at her.

After overhearing his conversation with Irene, she was enlightenedabout a great many things despite the lack of words.

She had lost her memory because people tried to Kill her but failed, andthe mother of the man before her was involved.

"What do you want now?" She glared at him.

"I told you-this woman was your junior in med school and your bestfriend. Let her tell you about yourself, and you'd know that I'm notlying."

Rainie was laughing inwardly.

Not lying? He did not want her to regain her memories!

It went without saying that he must have treated her terribly before, orhe would not have worried that she remembered.

"Fine, I'll meet her." She relented.

"Okay, good,” Zachary happily passed her a pair of loafers. "Put theseon. She's waiting in the living room.

Rainie got to her feet. "What's her name?"

“Irene Spencer," Zachary replied. "Do you remember your old job? Youwere a forensic doctor while she's a surgeon. I used to be a doctor too,but I quit because I had to manage my family business."

Rainie nodded. "Okay."

As she entered the living room, Irene rose from the couch, her eyesturning moist as she watched Rainie, and she called out softly, "Lulu."Rainie simply stood there, having long since forgotten her bond withIrene.

Even so, Irene walked up to her and hugged her, murmuringrepeatedly,” Thank goodness you're fine."

Her voice became hoarse, and her concern as well as rejoicing did notsound insincere.

As Rainie returned her hug, Irene had to work hard to subdue heremotions, keeping her voice mild as if worried she would scare Luluaway-Lulu did lose her memories, after all. "I'm Irene Spencer, and thisis Zachary. We all graduated from the same med school and we're bestfriends... Do you remember?"

Rainie shook her head-she genuinely could not remember.

Irene wiped her eyes then and tugged at Rainie to sit down. "We wouldbe concerned if we left you out there. If you don't want to stay here,how about staying at my place?"

Rainie studied Irene then, but the other woman was being sincereinstead of trying to dupe her.

Shaking her head, Rainie asked, "Am I really Lulu Adams?"

"Of course." Irene whipped out her phone and showed Rainie all thephotos they took together.

As Rainie browsed through everything, it became obvious to her thatshe and Irene really were close.

"Irene?" she called out tentatively.

Irene grinned. "I used to stick to your last name, but you told me itsounded distant and to use “Lulu’ instead. Do you remember?"

Rainie shook her head again, and it stung Irene a little that she did notremember anything-including herself.

“It's alright. As long as you're fine, I'll always be your friend."

"Maybe I was Lulu..." Rainie murmured.

“You are Lulu,” Zachary butted in.

Rainie glanced between him and Irene, who nodded assuringly. "Youare Lulu-the Lulu we know.”

Rainie nodded. "l am..."

In reality, she really wanted to replace out what happened in the past, andwhy people had tried to Kill her.

Even as she admitted inwardly that she was Lulu, she turned towardZachary. "Barbara and Tobias saved me. I should thank them forthatinstead of just upping and leaving."

“I'll go with you," Zachary said.

“Then I'll be leaving now. You guys do what you have to," Irene said,bidding her leave tactfully.

“I'll take her to you at the right time," Zachary said.

"Sure," Irene said, and left.

Returning to the car, she told the chauffeur, "Let's go home."

However, just as the car stopped at a junction with traffic lights, Irenepeered out of the car window and saw them.
