Chapter 566 – Second Chance Love of the Missing Groom Novel

Lulu could not fall asleep that night.

Seeing that the clock was pointing at 4 AM and there was light outside, she slowly got up and went to take a bath.

She then put on a face mask-not a skincare product, but a medical item that improved skin growth. It was helping the recovery of her face after surgery, which now carried a completely different appearance. Aside from Abigail and others she was close with, no one would recognize her.

Still, as she put a hand on the mirror, she suddenly smiled. “This is fine!”

She may be accustomed to this face since it was different from before, she had the advantage of concealing herself from Zachary.

“Lulu…”

“Stop.

She pursed her lips bitterly as she remembered her old name and told herself to forget the past that she was Wendy, not Lulu!

Lulu was now dead, and only Wendy could stay with Luna.

She cooked a couple eggs for breakfast, and the sun was soon up. She went to get changed, dressing conservatively after which she put on her disguise.

It was 5 AM still early-when she left her apartment.

She was worried since Luna had a fever, after all.

Thankfully, Abigail had arranged it so that she lived close to Zachary. And since she made an agreement with him yesterday, she did not want to be late at all!

Still, it was so early that there were only a few elderly men jogging along the curb, with others taking a stroll with children at the park. Exercising at such hours was naturally a good thing.

Lulu arrived outside Zachary’s house by 6 AM and could not help smiling as she remembered her daughter’s tender cheeks.

Ding dong!

The doorbell resounded throughout the house, and Zachary picked up his suit from a chair-he would have been in the office on any other day. Moreover, there was plenty of work to do at his office, and he had not been sleeping well because of it.

Fatigue showed on his face, and he had to rub his face to wake himself as he answered the door.

His gaze flickered when he saw the person at the door, and he said hoarsely, “You’re really early.”

“I’m worried,” Lulu replied. “Your baby’s sick, and I have to show responsibility since you paid me.”

Zachary pursed his lips and sighed. “Guess I got the right person for the job.”

As he opened the door, Lulu saw that he was holding a suit. “Are you going to work already?”

He certainly looked like he would leave soon.

“Yeah,” Zachary replied without elaborating. “She cried last night, but I picked her up and coaxed her to ker sleep. You can make some formula for her…”

Lulu nodded to think Zachary would take care of the baby even that late at night.

Clearing a path, she said, “Don’t worry, Mr. Slate. Just call me if there’s anything you need.”

Zachary did a double take but did not say anything as he strode past her and closed the door with a bang.

As the house turned silent, her whole body relaxed-she was always m nervous and evasive around Zachary.

“My name is Wendy…” she mumbled under her breath.

She strode to the living room with a determined look in her eyes, only to find it a complete mess!

Judging from the bottles left strewn around the floor, Zachary must have been drinking last night.

“Why is he drinking?” Lulu muttered-it was fine since he was an adult, but what if the smell made Luna uncomfortable?

“Baby…”

She became worried as she remembered her baby and hurried into her room.

There were toys everywhere and decorations such as wind chimes- Zachary had clearly made an effort decorating it!

Still, Lulu frowned and plucked down the wind chimes that rattled occasionally, since it would bother Luna sleeping.

Seemingly sensing her from the cradle, Luna opened her eyes and started to sob.

Lulu’s heart felt like it could break at her cry! “It’s alright, it’s alright… Mommy- no, nanny’s here!”

She corrected herself and did not call herself mommy, since Zachary was prudent enough to set up cameras around the room.

She was not going to stay and babysit Luna if he realized that.

She gently picked up Luna, feeling exceedingly intimate as she pressed Luna’s soft body against her chest!

“Are you hungry?” she asked, holding the baby with one hand and picking up the baby bottle with the other.

During her training, she had been offered great insight into baby products and knew what was top of the line.

Everything there was exactly that, even the baby bottle!

That was probably about the only way Zachary could care for Luna. “Baby formula…” Lulu murmured as she returned to the living room, and found the can of baby formula sat in the middle of everything. There were other cans, but those were used up and empty.

Lulu then handily made the formula while holding Luna with her other hand.

Her training proved useful after she did the same routine countless times, and she could now do it with no issues.

“Good girl,” she said when she was done and gently fed Luna.

She must be hungry, too—once the bottle nipple was close enough, she was already biting down on it!

Lulu felt her heart turning soft as she looked at Luna’s pinkish little cheeks.

“Sorry for being late. I won’t be next time!”

The baby simply blinked and stared at her as she kept drinking her formula milk, and there was no telling if she understood.

It was early, but Lulu gently rocked her to sleep. Babies need sleep the most, as they would grow and be healthier with sufficient sleep.

Lulu’s movement was precise thanks to her training and in-depth knowledge of babies.

It took no more than ten minutes for Luna to fall asleep.

Meanwhile at Zachary’s office, there was a monitor on his desk displaying what was going on in his house.

Lulu’s hunch was right-Zachary was not careless when it came to his baby, having instant cameras in the living room and in Lona’s room. He was staring at the nanny’s face just then, his gaze impassive. There were dark circles under his eyes-the baby had been crying a fit last night again and only fell asleep around 3 AM!
