Chapter 653
Irene quickly asked the cafe front desk for pen and paper, writing down her number on it.
"Watch out when you're at Zachary's home, and call me anytime you need help."
Lulu gave her a look but did not take the paper. "You told me that I could go home with him. Why do I have to watch out? Or maybe honesty isn't how things go around her?"
Irene had more to say, but Lulu had already gotten into a taxi.
She was left watching as the taxi went off into the distance, having the nagging feeling that Lulu was upset, but having no idea why.
Perhaps her personality had changed after losing her memory?
Still, Irene shook her head so as to not dwell on it, paid the money for the coffee, and took a taxi home.
Sheryl had Irene's second son in her arms, while Tommy was sprawled over her lap, watching his baby brother.
As Irene entered, she noticed Sheryl had a necklace on.
Irene remembered seeing her wear it as a child, and she sat down on the couch with Sheryl. "That necklace looks familiar."
Sheryl touched it just then. "I found it among the stuff you returned to me."
"Your father gave it to me," she said as she reminisced about the past. "I thought I wasn't going to see it again after Ricky sold the mansion, but it turns out that he was keeping it. I hated him, but he's dead now, so it's all in the past."
Irene smiled at how open-minded Sheryl was being.
Obsessing over the past only hurts yourself!
During dinner in the evening, Irene said, "I'll be having reconstructive surgery tomorrow."
"I'll be there with you," Isaac told her.
"You don't have to come if you're busy, actually," Irene said as she sliced a chunk of beef and ate it. "It's not major surgery, and I know the doctor is operating on me. He's the best in the country, and he told me that my scars would be easy to deal with."
She was wiping Tommy's mouth, not noticing the change in Isaac's expression.
Still, he quickly feigned nonchalance as he asked, "Is the doctor a man?"
