Chapter 997


    Zukozily leaned back on the sheepskin sofa.


    The servant had already prepared his usual hand-brewed Yirgacheffe coffee, and the aroma filled his


    nose, making him feel like he was in a dream.


    In the dream, he was in Jangasas. Now that he woke up from the dream, he was back in Centrolis.


    “How is it, Zuko?” Cordelia asked with a smile, “Is the cake delicious?”


    Zuko nodded, pretending that it was tasty. In truth, he did not have much, as he did not enjoy sweet


    things.


    He had heard that his father did not like sweets either, but his mother did, so he followed suit. Then his


    mother started calling him “Bald Meatball”.


    Zuko chuckled. His father had actually aged quite wellpared to his peers. The Hamertons had


    good genes in that regard. Even in his middle age, Zephyr was a tall and handsome middle-aged man


    with a touch of mature charm.


    Zuko sat up and asked, “Dad, mom, what happened that I’m needed back so urgently?”


    Zephyr looked at him and asked in a low voice, “Jacob didn’t tell you?”


    “He was quite vague and said it’s not something that can be exined in a few words,” replied Zuko.


    “Mm, that’s true. It’s got to do with Pam.” Zephyr’s gaze was deep as he looked at Zuko silently, his


    voice soft but deliberate. “Son, your Uncle Nichs has found Pammy.”

    “What!?” Zuko was stunned.


    “Our reaction was the same as yours when we received the news,” said Cordelia. “But initial excitement


    and joy, we found it quite unbelievable when we calmed down and thought about it.”


    Zuko furrowed his brows. “Who found her?”


    “It’s a younger cousin of Nichs. His name is Melvin Thompson.”


    “On what grounds do they im that the girl they found is Pammy?”


    “That’s the part we have doubts about as well!”


    Zephyr dismissed all the servants and asked Robert to keep watch outside—even Toph was not


    allowed to enter. Only the three of them remained in the spacious living room.


    Zephyr took out a copy of a DNA report and handed it to his son.


    Zuko had studied both schools of medicine from his grandfather and read through it, his brows


    furrowed tightly. “Where did this reporte from?”Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay

    “Melvin took Pammy for it.” Cordelia exined the whole story to Zuko, “The person who abducted


    Pammy was one of the survivors of the shipwreck, but he didn’t escape legal punishment. He was


    sentenced to death, and Melvin met him before the execution. He told Melvin that a couple took


    Pammy away back then, and her fate was unknown…”


    Zuko finally understood why the Thompsons had never given up on searching for Pammy all these


    years. There was really a glimmer of hope.


    “So, Melvin had been searching all these years following this lead, and he actually found her!”


    Zuko asked in a low voice. “Dad, Mom, have Aunt Zennie and Uncle Seth seen this report?”


    “They have,” said Zephyr. “But there’s no problem with the report itself.”


    Cordelia nced at him and continued. “There wouldn’t be a problem with the report. The problem lies


    with the person who did the test. As such, the best solution now is to get Pammy to the hospital we


    invested in and have our own people do another DNA test for her!”


    “Uncle Nichs won’t agree, will he?” asked Zuko.


    “Of course he won’t!” Zephyr shook his head. “They’re both exhrated. They haven’t slept well for


    several nights! Nichs even said he wants to give 1/3 of Sol Entertainment’s shares to Melvin as a


    token of gratitude!”


    “No way!” Zuko said, taken aback.


    Sol Entertainment was built out of Nichs and Linda’s hard work. Previously, no one from the


    Thompsons wanted to associate with them, and now they wanted a share? It was still uncertain


    whether the girl they had found was the real Pammy!


    Zuko bit his lip as he carefully put away the DNA report. He fell silent for a moment before saying,


    “Those directly involved in the matter are often the most blinded. It’s only observers like us who can


    see the problem.”


    “Yes!” Cordelia worriedly said, “Your father and I are concerned, but we don’t know what to do. If it


    really is Pammy, then it’s a cause for celebration. But if it’s not, it’ll be another blow to Linda.”


    Zuko remained silent, lost in his thoughts.


    If it really was Pammy, would he have to fulfill that engagement? It was just that he could not help the


    heartache when he thought of Lina.
