The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 999

Zachary then asked, "Isn't Lulu your friend? Aren't you going to ask after her?"

Irene shot him a look. "She's having it better than me, with Martin taking care of her."

In fact, Irene felt like things were a mess for her right now.

There was no telling how Isaac's treatment was going, and he was not letting her visit.

Eyes were so important to humans, after all, which left her with a nagging worry even though the doctors claimed that the condition was treatable.

Zachary could not deny what she was saying either.

Irene turned toward him and asked, "Finally giving up?"

Zachary reclined against his seat, looking nonchalant as he softly muttered, "Yeah."

"That just means you have nothing tying you down when you find someone you like," she told him.

Zachary chuckled, however, suddenly finding love pointless.

Once things changed, it would simply not feel the same way again.

Irene watched his despondent reaction in return. "As long as you understand."

Zachary said nonchalantly, "Love is pointless."

Irene was speechless, while their car returned to Zachary's mansion.

That was when Irene saw from the distance that someone was being restrained just as Zachary's phone rang.

He looked up after listening to it and saw that Barzel had returned.

He frowned slightly, wondering if the boy had spent all the money he gave and came to ask for more.

Soon, the car stopped, and Irene turned toward him.

Zachary said, "Take Tommy inside. I'll handle this."

Irene nodded, since she did not have the strength to get involved in others' troubles.
