Chapter 1130
Toph paused briefly but then smiled and said, “I’ll listen to you!”
Not only did he let her choose the breakfast location, but also what to eat.
Renee ordered croissants and coffee, specifically requesting smoked salmon. She remembered the
time when Toph had five portions of smoked salmon for breakfast at the Thompsons, and she had
secretly kept that in mind.
Toph was somewhat surprised but smiled happily. When the smoked salmon was served, he enjoyed it
greatly.
“This… definitely doesn’t taste as good as the one at home,” Renee said softly.
With his mouth full, Toph mumbled, “Mm, it’s delicious!”
Renee looked at him, unsure where to ce her hands. Despite knowing each other for a long time
and gradually rifying their rtionship, a girl would always feel uneasy and afraid of embarrassing
herself in front of someone she liked.
Toph also ced some salmon on her te and split the croissant. “Don’t just look at me. You should
eat too!”
Renee pursed her lips and smiled softly. After a while, she spoke in a gentle voice. “Toph, have you…
never doubted me?”
“Doubted you?” Her question took aback Toph.
“Yes.” Renee’s expression became serious. “Because I… I’m Melvin’s daughter, after all.Books

“Mr. and Mrs. Hamerton are so smart. Wouldn’t they think that I’m acting in front of them and secretly
colluding with Melvin?”
Toph set down his cutlery and looked at her silently. The girl’s mncholy and sensitivity tugged at his
heartstrings like an invisible hand.
“Renee, why do you think that?” he asked softly. “Is it just because you and Melvin are father and
daughter?”
Renee nodded vigorously.
“But you said that you never saw him as your father.”
“Toph…”
“Don’t worry.” Toph smiled gently. “My parents have been through countless ups and downs in their
lives. Do you think they couldn’t tell if someone was acting, even in front of them? Don’t overthink it.
The most important thing now is to cure your mother’s illness, and then…”
Toph took her small hand and held it in his palm. “And then leave everything else to me. I’ll protect you
for the rest of your life!”
Renee’s nose tingled, and her eyes instantly turned red.
“Hey, youngdy, you can’t cry while eating!” Toph gently wiped her tears with a tissue. “That’s one of
the rules at the Hamertons’ dining table. Remember it!”

“Okay…”
“And also, my parents like girls who are dignified and gentle. Well, in that case, you fit the criteria
perfectly!”
Renee went from tears toughter and took a sip of coffee.
Toph received a message from his father, which simply said: [Analyze the data.]
A long list of charts followed it.
Toph almost spat out the croissant he had just bitten into and slumped onto the table,menting, “Dad,
am I still your biological son? Zuko’s been in a bad mood these past few days because of Pammy, and
you can’t bear to order him around, so you’re tormenting me!?
“Oh God…”
This series of actions stunned Renee. Although Toph was usually silly, he was at least somewhat
normal, but today…
“Toph, what’s wrong? Is it something serious?”
