Chapter 740
"It's me," Isaac whispered softly into Irene’s ear.
She turned and smacked him on the chest in annoyance. "You scared me."
Isaac held her hands down. "I'll be more careful next time."
Irene took a moment to calm down then-her heart had almost leapt out of her throat just now, as she thought someone had broken in.

Isaac frowned slightly and asked, "Aren't you tired?"
Irene flexed her neck in response-it had certainly been a long day, and it was very late.
"Yeah," she replied with a yawn.
"So why bother?"
Irene realized then that he was not concerned, but complaining that she was being a busybody instead.
'They're family," she grumbled. "I can't do nothing-"

Zachary left looking for Lulu soon after learning that she left, and he searched every place where she might be.
However, she was nowhere to be found, and she left no clues or anything as she upped and left.
He strode alone on a street aimlessly, remembering the time he kept her with him while she lost her memory.
Even if she had been vengeful, he had the solace of keeping an eye on her.
