Chapter 992


    Zuko turned to look at the young woman beside him and felt that she was like a cherry blossom,


    delicate and captivating.


    At that moment, a subconscious voice suddenly asked him, ‘Do you still remember Pammy?’


    Zuko’s hands trembled slightly, and he quickly shoveled food into his mouth to conceal his absent-


    mindedness. ‘Pammy…’


    Had Pammy still been there, would he have fulfilled the marriage agreement with the Thompsons long


    ago, gradually taken over the Hamerton Group, and be a good husband and father?


    Meanwhile, he was now in Jangasas as Zeke Hamerton. He had shed the husk of Zuko, but he knew


    that he would forever be in Pammy’s shadow.


    Actually, he had told himself many times that Pammy was only five years old when she went missing,


    and he was just a child. How could a child have such deep feelings? He should not have cared so


    much.


    For some reason, every time he saw Lina, her innocent smile, her soft voice, and her pouts when she


    was teased, he could not help but think of Pammy.


    Zuko wondered if this was some kind of psychological illness.


    He sighed softly and took the initiative to bring the dishes to the kitchen after finishing the meal.


    Lina was about to turn on the faucet when Zuko gently blocked her hand. “The water’s cold. I’ll do the


    dishes.”


    Lina was taken aback.


    Melissa was filled with joy. She did not expect her transformation attempt to be so sessful! Zeke


    was already taking the initiative to do chores. She exchanged a nce with Jesse and smiled as they


    walked over.


    “You two don’t have to do it. Your father and I are in the kitchen! Lina, it’s still early. Why don’t you take


    Zeke for a walk by the seaside?”


    Zuko and Lina were both stunned for a moment. Then, Melissa pushed them out of the front door.


    The two of them stood there, staring at each other and feeling a bit awkward.


    “You go first,” said Zuko.


    “You… You first.” Lina followed behind him like a dutiful wife.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join &

    Zuko put his hands in his pockets and walked ahead with big strides. The streemp elongated their


    shadows—Zuko’s shadow covered Lina’s, and only the moonlight could see the smile on her face.


    They were walking slowly toward the alley when Dave suddenly ran over from that direction. “Door


    Guardian, bro! Someone’s looking for you!”


    “What?”


    “Just over there!” Dave pointed nearby.


    A tall figure stood in the dim light outside the alley.


    Lina couldn’t see clearly but sensed an air of affluence emanating from the silhouette.


    Zuko quickly approached and asked, “Why are you here?”


    Jacob nced in Lina’s direction, seeing her hesitation about whether toe closer or not.


    He joked, “Why isn’t she getting closer? I want a better look!”


    Zuko gave him a sharp look in response.


    Jacob quickly changed the subject. “So… have you eaten?”


    Zuko responded with a monotonous sound.


    Jacob furrowed his brows. “Did you have onions?”

    Zuko nced at him.


    “Didn’t you used to dislike anything with a strong smell?” Jacob asked.


    “I used to dislike paying attention to you too, but here we are, talking,” Zuko retorted.


    Jacob was rendered speechless, scratching his head and awkwardlyughing.


    “Why did youe to find me?” asked Zuko.


    “Oh!” Jacob snapped back to his senses and quickly took out his phone. “I wanted to show you this!”


    Zuko leaned over and saw several photos. They were all chat records between Violet and someone


    else.
