Chapter 948
“There are still some rtives on his side,” Linda said softly. “It’s just that they looked down on him
during those years he was in a gang and avoided him.
“Now that they see he’s gotten rich and sessful as the boss of an entertainmentpany, they’re
eager to curry favor with him!”
Linda pursed her lips. The Thompson rtives had basically all visited their home in recent years. It
was to borrow some money today, find a job the next day, ask to join the board of directors the day
after, and demand shares afterward.
When Nichs refused, they guilt-tripped him in his family’s name and then threatened to expose that
he was once a gang member. Sol Entertainment had always been caught in rumors and scandals
mainly due to these absurd rtives’ doing.
Nichs had seen more to life and was unfazed by their tricks. His way was tough and firm, too, so he
had offended many people along the way.
In addition to his previous involvement in the gangs, he had made many enemies. Although he had
sessfully turned his life around and his career was thriving now, the more sessful he became,
the more people hated him, and the more he had to be careful.
After all, those who were jealous of him were lurking in the shadows while he, his wife, and his
daughter were out in the open. He must protect them regardless.
“I have noints about Nichs, actually,” Linda said with a happy smile. “It’s just these
unreasonable rtives that ruin the fun!”
“It’s okay!” Cordeliaforted her. “You don’t live with them anyway, so why bother? As long as
Nichs is good to you and your daughter is by your side, everything will be fine!”
“Mm!” Linda smiled.
It was not that she really had a grudge. She just wanted to talk to someone when she was feeling
upset. After confiding in Cordelia, she felt much better.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay

Her baby woke up whining, and Linda quickly picked her up from the cradle.
Nichs came in with Zephyr as well. Zephyr was delighted to see the delicate and pretty little girl.
When he looked at Nichs and saw the grin that was almost splitting his face, he pouted and turned
his face away in a fit of pique.
“Hey, what are you doing?” Cordelia nudged him. “Why are you staring into space? Bring out the gift!”
Zephyr quickly took out a lucky charm ornament made of gold and jade and carefully ced it next to
the pillow in the cradle.
“Look at you being so polite!” Nichsughed. He was very happy today, and he had drunk more than
usual, so his cheeks were red. When he saw his daughter, his eyes brimmed with adoration.
“We should!” Cordeliaughed. “We’re meeting for the first time. We have to give a gift to my future
daughter-inw!”
Toph took the opportunity to ask, “Mom, what’s a daughter-inw?”
Cordelia pursed her lips and pinched his nose.
Zuko had been looking at the little girl the whole time, curious about the newborn baby.
Back home, he had seen pictures of himself and his younger brother when they were born, and he was
skeptical that the ugly babies in the photos were him and his brother. Because of that, he thought thatConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
newborn babies were all ugly like that.
He did not expect their little friend to be so cute. Was it because they were boys and their little friend
was a girl? Could it be that all girls were born pretty?
Zuko smiled innocently and pulled his mother’s clothes to ask, “Mom, can you give me a little sister?”
“Why?”
“I think she’s very pretty, like a doll!”
His words amused the adults, and Cordelia bent down to pat his little face. Before she could say
anything, Nichs spoke. “Zuko, she will be yours in the future! Can you take good care of her?”
“Really?” Zuko was surprised. He got a doll in exchange for missing a ss!
“Mm, really!” Nichs walked over with a stagger to pat the boy’s shoulder. “Take good care of her in
the future or… I won’t be nice to you!”
“Shoo, shoo! You reek of alcohol!” Zephyr dragged him away in disdain. “Don’t intoxicate my son!”
