Chapter 527
Even if Zachary did not like the idea, both Isaac and James were too busy to help.
He could only count on himself to find Lulu-dead or alive!
On the other hand, Ember was at once delighted and doubtful because Zachary had never been this kind to her.
As if afraid that she was dreaming, she pinched herself in the arm.
It hurt-she felt actual pain.
She was not dreaming! Zachary was actually being nice to her!
Holding his gaze, she said, "Thank you for believing me, Zachary. I promise
I don't know anything about Lulu, and I didn’t put up those banners..."
"That's enough-you don't have to say anything. I'd just let my frustrations get the better of me, so don't take it to heart,"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtZachary told her, gesturing for her to get into his car. "You can tell your chauffeur to drive home first."
"Okay!" Ember nodded enthusiastically, sneaking glances at Zachary as she did.
She was certainly obsessed with his good looks, so much so that she was crazy about him!
Zachary could sense her gaze, and almost asked about Lulu again out of impulse.
However, he was rational enough to restrain himself-he knew that now was not the time for that.
Asking it now would just make Ember wary, and without anyone there to help, he must endure and wait.
On the other hand, Ember was already getting ahead of herself.
She started to sneak a hand to Zachary's side.
He was not happy about it, but he only said, "I'm driving."
However, the fact that he was not shaking her off already left Ember beside herself with joy.
Aside from the time they slept together because Mrs. Slate drugged them, they did not share much intimacy even
though they were married.
But now, Zachary was not pushing her away.
It was obvious that he was slowly accepting her!
She thought then that killing Lulu was the smart choice-he would not be so accepting of her otherwise.
"Thanks for believing me, Zachary," she said, and leaned against his arm.
Zachary kept his eyes on the road as he drove without reacting at all.
After James left, he headed to Isaac's home and arranged a protection detail for Tommy and Sheryl.
He also informed Sheryl that Isaac and Irene had both gone abroad since there was something important to attend
to at the Remy headquarters.
Sheryl was used to Isaac leaving on short notice and did not doubt it, but was actually puzzled by Irene's departure.
She just came back-she would be eager to spend more time with Tommy.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhy did she have to leave as well?
"Mr. Jefferson insisted that she went with him," James explained, and Sheryl showed a look of understanding right then.
They had been apart for so long they would yearn for each other more than newlyweds, and they certainly would want to
spend more time together.
Tell them they have nothing to worry about," she told James. "I'll take
good care of Tommy."
James heaved a sigh of relief at her words-there was one good thing to report to Isaac now, at least.
He then headed to Twinrise.
Stan Hill was holding the fort at the Remy headquarters, but James needed Debbie the secretary's help for something
here.
She was not at her desk when he arrived, however, and he had to ask around to find out that she was at the conference
room.
It left James perplexed-what was she doing there when there was no meeting?
He headed over and pushed open the thick, wooden doors and saw her just then...
