The Runaway Groom By Hauling Treasures Chapter 421
Chapter 421
Ricky appeared dumbfounded. “What banners?”
Irene kept a close eye on his reaction. “You really don’t know?”
“Time out, Irene. What banners are you talking about? I really don’t get what you’re talking about.”
Ricky still appeared to be dizzy from his hangover and he could not understand Irene just then.
Irene kept staring at him for seconds, ensuring that he was not ying dumb before saying, “Yesterday,
someone hung banners over Central Tower, mocking Zachary and Ember…”
“Hahaha!!!” Ricky burst out inughter right then. “He got what he deserved!”
“Was it you?” Irene asked seriously.
“Nope,” Ricky said, his smile remaining on his face. “Guess I’m not the only one who hates him. It’s
what he deserves for being a piece of shit.”
Irene pursed her lips, and actually began to doubt him. “It really wasn’t you? It looks exactly like
something you would do.”
Ricky shrugged. “If you insist that it’s me, then it must be me. I’m just d he didn’t get off easy.”
“Don’t do that ever again. You’re just going to hurt Lulu–Zachary’s family would be after her if they even
think that it’s her.”
“He’s been with me all this while, someone suddenly said. “He never did anything–don’t me him for
something he didn’t do.”
Irene turned and saw that it was Lulu, who had woken up without Irene knowing and was getting up to
her feet. “It’s time we left.”
Irene followed Lulu. “Are you alright?”
“I’m perfectly fine,” Lulu said as she turned and looked Irene in the eye. “Also, Ricky and I came
straight here after the wedding. He’s been with me all this time–he wouldn’t have time for anything
else.”
Irene was left puzzled. “Then who could it be?”
“Who cares? I’m just happy someone messed with Zachary,” Ricky said as he went to the counter to
pay
up.
As Irene and Lulu stepped out of the bar, Lulu stretched her back and said, “It’s time I head home.”
“Don’t you want to take a bath first?” Irene asked. “I’ve taken the day off and we could go to Spencer
Mansion together. I was just thinking about checking on Tommy too.”
“I’m really such a mess, huh?” Lulu asked.
Irene nodded, and she mused to herself for a second. “Okay, sorry for causing you trouble.”
“You don’t have to be that polite with me.” Irene smiled.
Ricky made his way toward them just then, and Irene said, “Let’s go.”

While Ricky tried to hail a taxi, however, a ck luxury car suddenly stopped right in front of Lulu.
The window wound down, revealing Mrs. te’s face.
She came from money, but the scars of age were obvious–things must be unpleasant between her and
her family.
“Get in, Lulu Adams. I have questions for you,” she growled.
“You can ask me right here,” Lulu shot back.
Mrs. te studied her from head to toe, and then nced behind her at the signboard that read Coco
Bar.
Her lips curling in contempt, she said, “I guess Ember is definitely the right choice for Zachary. Not only
did shee from the right family, but the fact that she has her act together makes her more deserving
of my son. I wonder why I gave you a chance at all.”
Lulu was not affected by Mrs. te’s words, however–she had suffered worse insults before, and was
basically used to it.
“Fine. We can talk here if you don’t want to leave with me, so tell me: were you the one who hung
those. banners at Zachary’s wedding?”
“It wasn’t her.”
Ricky walked up to them, answering Mrs. te before Lulu could.
“And who are you?” Mrs. te asked.
“I’m Lulu’s friend. It’s your own son’s fault that he was ridiculed. You should instead head home and ask
him what he had done to deserve that.”
Ricky was too young to fear Mrs. te, let alone care who she was as he fired back..
Mrs. te stared at him for a while, and then turned to Lulu to ask, “Were you two togetherst night?”
