Chapter 971
The Runaway Groom Chapter 971
Zachary did not argue the point since Lulu was the baby’s mother.
“If you say so. Come on, just let me go already.”
Irene frowned-he was clearly saying what she wanted to hear, and he would not hesitate to go looking
for Lulu.
“I won’t let you go.” Irene’s attitude was definitive, and she ignored Zachary’s howls this time, closing
the door behind her as she left.
Naturally, Zachary was not about to give up. Even when bound, he kept yelling for Irene until the whole
house found out that Eagle tied him up!
As Tommy and Sheryl entered the study, Tommy had his palm over his little mouth as he giggled, while
Sheryl was speechless!
“You’re all adults! What are you doing?”
Zachary quickly tried to y the sympathy card. “Please talk to Irene. She’s really throwing her weight
around the house with Isaac away.”
Sheryl frowned. “Is she really being so unreasonable?”
Seeing that Sheryl was almost persuaded, Eagle spoke up. “Mrs. Jefferson wouldn’t tie him up for no
reason.”
Sheryl thought about it and had to agree. “You’re all adults. Irene definitely wouldn’t y around.”
Zachary shot Eagle a re and growled through his teeth, “Would it kill you to stay quiet?”
Eagle made an innocent face. “I’m just telling it like it is.”
Zachary rolled his eyes!
A burly man like Eagle acting cute? It was just ridiculous!
Still, before Eagle said anything else, Tommy asked, “Should I bring you a bucket?”
Zachary was speechless, while Eagle lowered his head to hide a smile.
Still holding Irene’s baby, Sheryl said, “See you around.”
The young ones were certainly spirited. She was too old to keep up with them!
All she would do was to care for her grandchildren and not bother with the rest.
After all, they were all adults and would at least think before doing anything.
“Tommy,e on. Let’s go y,” Eagle held out his hands to carry Tommy just then.
“Nope!” Tommy refused and promptly ran off.
“Slow down,” Eagle said even as he chased after Tommy. “I’ll let you y as much as you want this
time…”
“Really?” Tommy stopped and turned towards him just then.
“I won’t lie,” Eagle replied.
Tommy then pointed at arge tree nearby. “Go up there and make a swing for me.”
“Sure!” Eagle agreed to it without hesitation.
Tommy gaped in disbelief. “Isn’t that dangerous?”
“I’ll be guarding you all the while,” Eagle replied.
Tommy was speechless-where was the fun in that?!
“You’re running my childhood,” he huffed, putting his hands on his hips.
“You could y something less dangerous,” Eagle told him. “I promised your mother I’ll protect you
from harm. Do you understand?”
“Nope,” Tommy said.
Eagle did not exin further either.
Giving in, Tommy asked, “What isn’t dangerous?”
Eagle thought about it, but Tommy soon thought of something.
He started to tie little knots on Zachary’s head.

Eagle stood by and watched quietly, but eventually could not keep it in and turned to hide his chuckle.
Zachary was speechless.
“Irene Spencer!!!” he bellowed.
In the study, Irene thought Zachary was still trying to get her to free him, and she put on her
headphones.
Tommy blinked at Eagle. “I’m bored.”
Eagle was at a loss for words.
Was the boy really that hard to handle?
How long had it been?
“How about some basketball?” he suggested.
Tommy happily nodded. “Okay!”
As Eagle started to leave with him, Zachary snapped, “Eagle! Let me go!”
“I only follow orders from Mrs. Jefferson,” Eagle replied.
“Irene!!!” Zachary growled.
Irene did not leave the study even as Zachary shouted until his voice turned hoarse.
She finally came outside at night and immediately found Zachary had his hair tied up into little knots.
It was simply ridiculous-he looked just like a porcupine!
“What happened here?” She walked up to him, loosening the knots.
“Let me go, Irene,” Zachary said then. “I won’t go looking for Lulu now-l have a bone to pick with your
son and Eagle!”
