    The Runaway Groom Chapter 849


    Irene quickly strode up and grabbed Zachary’s arm, warning quietly, “Don’t do anything stupid. Lulu is


    happy now—please don’t affect her life now.”


    Zachary lowered his gaze at her in turn, growling, “So you weren’t lying, Irene. She really is married.”


    Irene tightened her hold over his arm, warning, “I’m begging you.”


    Zachary shot her a look, but he soon startedughing.


    And he was getting louder by the second.


    Still, he was merelyughing at himself for being delusional!


    “Calm down. I won’t mess with her,” he said, his voice turning calm just then. “Now, let me go.”


    However, Irene did not because she was still skeptical. “Zachary…”


    “Why don’t you trust me, hmm?” Zachary smiled.


    As Irene slowly released him, Zachary looked up and met Lulu’s gaze.


    She was frozen stiff, as if lead suddenly filled her body!


    Feeling her stiffness, Martin asked softly, “Are you alright?”


    Lulu promptly lowered her eyes to avoid Zachary’s gaze. “N-No. Just suddenly felt a little chilly.”


    “I told you to wearyers before we came. You didn’t listen,” Martin said, adjusting her clothes before


    taking off his own jacket and draping it over her shoulders.


    His warmth still lingered on the jacket, while Lulu came to her senses and whispered, “Aren’t you cold?”


    “I’m a big man. I’m fine,” Martin replied.


    Zachary could not bear to watch—unting their affection in his face?!


    “Lulu?” he called out very loudly, drawing every pair of eyes in the lobby.


    Irene nudged him with her elbow. “What are you doing?!”


    “We know each other. I should at least say hi,” Zachary said as he strode toward Lulu with his hands in


    his pockets.


    Stopping just a step away from Lulu, he asked, “Do you recognize me?”


    “Yeah,” Lulu said quietly, with an almost imperceptible hoarseness in her voice.


    Zachary’s hands clenched into fists in his pocket, but he remained nonchnt. “You’re married


    already? I didn’t receive anything though. How cold of you.”

    Lulu kept her eyes lowered in silence, while Martin asked, “You’re Lulu’s friend too?”


    Zachary nodded and pointed at Irene. “Irene and I were best friends with Lulu. I was in the same year


    with Lulu at med school, too. She never told you?”


    Martin shook his head. “She only told me about Irene, saying that she’s her best friend.”


    Zachary added, “I was too. I used to fancy her as well, but she didn’t like me—”


    “Alright, I still have a favor to ask of Lulu,” Irene said, cutting Zachary short with a warning look.


    “Weren’t you busy? Don’t you have to leave?”


    Zachary did not want to make things that bad, and he pursed his lips in a light smile. “Alright. Go about


    your business.”


    Then, turning toward Martin, he said, “You owe me a wedding buffet.”


    “It’s my treat when there’s a chance,” Martin replied.


    “That’s enough.” Irene shoved Zachary.


    Zachary turned around and shot her a look. “Oh, you look so spooked.”


    Irene, however, was really upset. “That’s enough from you.”


    With that, Zachary stopped being weird, but he allowed his eyes to linger on Lulu before striding


    outside.


    Irene smiled. “The room is ready. Let’s go!”


    Arriving at the room, Irene made the excuse of girls’ talk and went into the bedroom with Lulu.


    Martin nced at the bedroom but said nothing.


    With the insight he honed on his job, he knew the instant Zachary showed up that things were


    complicated between him and Lulu.


    He just did not let it show, just as he decided not to ask—even feigning ignorance—if Lulu did not tell


    him.


    Meanwhile, in the bedroom…
