Chapter 966


    The next day, Zuko arrived at the Jenners with his luggage and experienced the cold treatment he had


    never had before.


    Lina had to stay at school to finish her paper before returning home, so she sent him the address and


    told him to go by himself. Zuko followed the address and arrived at a smallne where the Jenners


    lived. The house looked old, with creaking wooden floors.


    Fortunately, the living space was not cramped. It was a small two-story house, and the Jenners lived on


    the left side. Downstairs was a living room, kitchen, bathroom, master bedroom, and Dave’s room.


    Upstairs was a spacious attic facing south with excellent sunlight. Opening the door led to a charming


    little balcony with ck carved railings adorned with blooming roses.


    Zuko was immediately drawn to the scenery and asked, “This is…”

    Dave softly introduced, “This is my sister’s room.”


    Zuko’s lips curled into a smile. “Your parents treat her well. This attic should be the biggest and best


    room.”


    Dave nced at him but did not say anything. He turned and headed downstairs, with Zuko following


    behind. The stairs were quite narrow and creaked as they walked down. In this house, everything


    seemed to make noise. Living there would probably be lively.


    Zuko smiled faintly.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…


    In the living room, Jesse assumed the central seat, dressed in a suit and with his shoes polished,


    projecting the image of the head of the family. Melissa had styled her hair into curls and wore a big red


    scarf around her neck, a treasured item from their wedding. Meanwhile, Dave sat upright, adjusting his


    ck-framed sses, his eyes gleaming with an unfriendly demeanor.


    The imposing scene slightly stunned Zuko.


    However, he did not know that these three people were just putting on a show. In their eyes, he had


    been in fights and even been to prison. With his tall and sturdy build, he could probably overpower their


    whole family with just one arm. Moreover, he was not talkative. Although his face was handsome, he


    always had a gloomy expression that naturally intimidated others.


    That was why they wanted to intimidate him on his first day there.


    Melissa coughed heavily, giving Jesse a signal.


    Jesse, an honest man all his life, had never done anything like this before, so he straightened his body


    as much as possible, trying to encourage himself.


    “Um… You!” Jesse pointed at Zuko, extending his arm stiffly, but his fingertips were trembling slightly.


    “You… Whatever I ask, y-you have to answer! Do you… Do you understand?”


    Melissa shot him an exasperated look. This was supposed to add to their daughter’s had made a mess


    of it and was even stuttering!


    “Enough.” Melissa pursed her lips. “Ask whatever you want quickly. Our daughter will be back for


    dinner soon!”


    “Yes!” Jesse tugged at his cor, sweating profusely.


    He continued pointing at Zuko. “Name, age, and address! Don’t miss a single detail!”


    His tone was like interrogating a criminal.


    This was the decision the three of them made after their “brainstorming” session today. They wanted to


    give Zuko a taste of what he experienced in the police station and make him recall those days.


    Although a person who had been to prison was fearless, the police still had some deterrent effect on


    them.


    It was just that…
