Chapter 973


    Melissa smiled and thought to herself that she initially thought Zuko was imprisoned for fighting and


    brawling, but it turned out to be for document forgery, which elevated his skills to a whole new level.


    Once someone had a talent, it was like they glowed.


    “Zeke, if that’s the case, you can be considered a skilled criminal!” Melissa said, “I can rest assured


    now since you went to prison for this! It’s better than fighting!


    “Zeke, it’s alright to have taken the wrong path. What’s important is to change! You made this marriage


    certificate so realistic, which shows that you have good skills! You should redirect your talent for forging


    documents and use it for something else—to contribute to society!”


    “Yes! Ipletely agree!” Jesse chimed in. “Hey, Zeke, can you counterfeit money too?”


    Zuko coughed and choked on his food, unable to respond.


    Dave was holding back hisughter, and his face turned red.

    Lina quickly shot her parents a look, signaling them to stop. She got up and poured a ss of water for


    Zuko.


    Zuko struggled to swallow.


    He could not make counterfeit money, but he could draw it. His painting skills were inherited from his


    maternal grandmother, who once fetched a staggering $30,000,000 for a painting of fireflies.


    “I have to admit, your timing with the certificates was impable.” Lina smiled at Zuko and put the


    marriage certificates away in a drawer. “I was worried all day today that Violet woulde looking for


    trouble again!”


    “With me around, she wouldn’t dare,” Zuko said softly.


    Lina was startled, and her heart rate suddenly became irregr for some reason.

    After dinner, Lina walked out of the alley alone. It was past 8:00 p.m., a time when people came out to


    chat and enjoy the cool evening breeze, especially since the beach was not far from there. She often


    went to the beach to rx.


    The ce was bustling with tourists, and the deep and enchanting sea at night captivated her. Lina


    gazed at the dark surface of the sea, the blurred boundary between the sea and sky, and enjoyed the


    gentle caress of the sea breeze. A smile unconsciously appeared on her lips.


    She found a secluded spot to sit down, but she heard a familiar voice as soon as she did. “You also like


    watching the sea?”


    Lina was startled.


    Zuko sat down next to her, his gaze fixed on the horizon, as mysterious and unpredictable as the sea


    itself.


    “Ah… yes,” Lina said softly. “I often take a walk after dinner, and it leads me to the beach.”


    “Lina.”


    “Yes?”


    “Haven’t you considered fighting back with how Violet’s bullying you?”


    Lina paused. Had she directed the conversation here?


    “Why? You dare not tell?” Zuko turned to her with a smirk. “Or you’ve never thought of taking revenge?


    “It had nothing to do with you, whether I have thought of it.” Lina was sharp and would never tell


    someone anything before fully knowing the person.


    Zuko smiled and turned his gaze back to the sea.


    ” If I were you, I wouldn’t let someone who bullied me get away with it,” he said with a lowered voice.


    “I’d make sure they suffer the consequences tenfold or even a hundredfold.”


    He looked into her eyes. “Lina, don’t you want to give it a try?”
