The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 353

Chapter 353

Ricky smiled, and he actually put his arm around Lulu’s.

Irene frowned as she watched–he never did that with her before!

Feeling like he was getting overly enthusiastic, she joked nonetheless, “Ricky, did you know that Lulu has a boyfriend?”

“Come on, Irene–he’s just a younger brother to me,” Lulu said as she glanced at Ricky sideways.

Irene said nothing–it was just a reminder anyway, so that Ricky would not get any ideas.

Still, Ricky pursed his lips in turn. “They are having a fight, aren’t there? Since they might not make up, and it’s common for the ladies to hook up with healthy young men like me, I’m open to any offers, Lulu.”

“Not interested in puppies.” Lulu pulled her arm out of his and walked over to Irene.

Still, they heeded to a diner together, though Ricky was persistently trying to start conversations with Lulu. Eventually, Irene could not stand it and asked, “Not afraid of Lulu already, Ricky?”

Ricky shrugged. “I’m an adult. What should I be afraid of?”

Lulu pointed at a slice of beef just then. “Do you know what that shape looks like?”

“What?” Ricky asked.

“Your entrails…”

“Stop.” Ricky quickly threw up his hands–not when he was eating!

In fact, he ended up unable to stomach meat, and limited himself to the greens.

Lulu smiled smugly–Ricky was still young, and teasing him was quite amusing.

On the other hand, Irene did not have much of an appetite in the first place, and left after a couple of mouthfuls. “You guys can finish up. I have to go now.”

“Okay. Stay safe,” Ricky told her.

“Yeah,” Irene replied, giving him a look before leaving.

She soon arrived home, and felt a little not used to having Isaac around. He had been working from home for a while now, and he would always be home when she returned from work in the evening.

Mrs. Watson had also tucked Tommy into bed, so the whole house became especially quiet.
