Chapter 583 – Second Chance Love of the Missing Groom Novel

Sue was an earnest person, and Lulu felt comfortable working with her-being able to speak heart-to-heart made everything easier, especially without the need for petty squabbles. Content t “My husband’s condition got very serious yesterday, and he’s still in surgery sue eventually said.

Lulu frowned-it had been an entire night, but the surgery was still not over?

“How much does the surgery cost?” she asked.

“Two hundred thousand…”

There was no way Sue’s family could afford it, and the surgical cost would make their already desperate circumstances worse!

“Mrs. Lambert, please come to Mr. ė Slate’s house for now-just ask your son to hold the fort for the moment,” Lulu said with a calmness almost unbecoming of her age. S The “Oh… uh…” Sue was hesitant, unsure of what Lulu was planning.

Sue fought back her tears and told her son to stay, and call her if anything came up.

When she arrived, Lulu gave her a large black bag. “I’m lending you this money. There’s fifty grand there to pay for whatever you need right now.” Lulu then took out an IOU and a pen, passing both to Sue.

She signed it without hesitation-she would never let her husband die under her watch.

“Don’t worry,” she told Lulu. “I’ll definitely find a way to repay you.”

Lulu clapped an assuring hand on her shoulder-everyone would always have a time of need.

She could also tell that Sue had her own principles and therefore drafted the IOU earlier so that Sue would accept the loan.

“Go. I’ll talk to Mr. Slate about your situation,” she said with a smile.

Overwhelmed, Sue gave Lulu a hug before hurrying away.

After she left, Lulu withdrew $400,000 from the card Zachary gave her before.

Zachary was just resting his eyes when he got a text notification and was soon frowning.

Was Lulu or Star in trouble?

He left the office at the thought, even though his uncles had given him an impossible mission following the morning’s board meeting.

A month might not ever be enough to uncover the mole, and he had to get everything at home sorted out before that.

His return surprised Lulu, as she was not expecting to see him so soon after she made the withdrawal.

“You’re back already, Mr. Slate?” she asked, her eyes evasive.

“Why did you make such a huge withdrawal, Ms. Jones?” he asked urgently, his eyes bloodshot.

Realizing he thought she was in trouble, Lulu took a couple steps back and picked up the IOU. “There’s been an emergency in Sue’s family her husband is still in from me, and if you’re really a trouble. You can think of it as a loan concerned, you can deduct it from my monthly salary.”

Zachary would find out about Sue’s situation anyway. When he did and gave Sue a loan, he would most для

definitely be a little worried since $400,000 was a large sum S

Lulu had no choice but to do this to curb Zachary’s doubts.

“It’s fine-won’t deduct it. Also, I’m sorry,” Zachary apologized, realizing that he had lost composure and might have scared Lulu. “I think I was being a little frantic.” Content t “No, no, no… It’s my fault for doing this without your approval earlier.” Lulu promptly threw up her hands-what creditor would apologize?

Zachary shook his head. “You don’t need my approval. I gave you that! debit card, so you can decide for yourself.”

Lulu blinked He was being so agreeable… Then why that frantic reaction earlier?

“Well, I would need your “

Before she could finish, Star started to cry out loud, and Lulu hurried into her room. “I’m here, X’m always here… Oh, you’re awake, Star? Did you sleep well?”

She handily picked up Star and patiently coaxed her until she stopped bawling.

“I need to know… if it involves you,”

Zachary said after all went fnside the nursery.

He could well be talking to himself, or to no one in particular.

By the time Lulu stepped outside, he was already gone.

“Weirdo…” she murmured.

Zachary remained restless as he returned to the hotel.

He and his employees would be going to Goldpool, an enclosed hotel built exclusively for people like Zachary with professional needs, tomorrow.

There was no telling what would happen within the next month, and he had made a gambit at the board meeting, betting everything on the enclosed management. Curiously, Vivian’s seat was empty.

She should be there, but naturally no one in the company would dare to point that out since she was Zachary’s personal assistant.

They would more or less show her respect.

Vivian, dressed full in back, strode through an alley before knocking on a certain door.

It opened, and she hurried inside.

“Vivian?”

The man before her had a slicked back hairstyle and was leaning against his reclining chair, staring at her sideways.

His assistant sat beside him, tapping on a tablet and doing something Vivian had no idea about.

“Why did you ask for me, Mr. Slate?”

The man, Colin Slate, was Zachary’s second uncle. As he stared at Vivian, he could not help licking his lips at the sight of her stunning figure.

“What good is there being my dear nephew’s lover? Why not work for me?”

As the biggest shareholder of Slate Industries, he had been subtly sabotaging Zachary’s work for years to claim the position of CEO.

However, Vivian smiled as she rejected him. “Surely you jest, Mr. Slate. I have no virtue to become Mr. Zachary’s lover, and I’m just a humble worker making ends meet. I’d never overreach.” Colin clicked his tongue and clapped.

He presumed that Vivian was a pushover, but she at least had a bite.

It was not surprising now that Zachary kept her around.

In reality, Zachary had not noticed her strengths. Her competence was average, and she was only transferred over to assist him in various tasks.

“I can help you, woman,” Colin said.

Vivian smiled-all her hard work had paid off.

Colin smiled in return, and both of them could tell from each other’s eyes that they were both scheming for different things.

Soon, Vivian left, which puzzled Colin’s assistant. “Sir, are you letting her go just like that?”

“Yes. It’s obvious she’s ambitious.”

Colin chuckled. “She might even prove helpful to our cause… But keep a close eye on her movements over the next few days. Make sure she’s not Zachary’s spy.”

“Yes, Mr. Slate.”

Lulu started to clean the house after coaxing Star to sleep, picking up Sue’s slack.

“I wonder how she’s doing…” she murmured-she would have visited Sue’s family at the hospital if she did not have to stay here, but Star took priority.

It took her the entire afternoon to clean the house.

Star woke up halfway through and was throwing a fuss, holding out her little hands demandingly.

As such, Lulu had to carry her around while she worked.

Wiping the sweat of her brow, Lulu thought things were so much better with Sue around…

Meanwhile, Sue’s husband died on the surgical table, leaving behind just her and a son about to take his entrance exams.

Zachary was made aware and was somber even as he returned home.

“Aren’t you tired, Ms. Jones?”

Zachary asked, quickly taking Star off her arms since she was carrying the baby in one hand
