Chapter 1150


    Meanwhile, Nichs watched on with cold detachment, his dark eyes filled with a burning hatred.


    Despite being covered in injuries, Melvin continued to provoke Nichs with vulgarities, determined to


    get a reaction.


    “Let me tell you… Your daughter is probably enjoying herself with some man right now! Hahaha… Zuko


    Hamerton! Congrattions! Even if you find Lina, she’s just a worthless slut who’s been whored by


    men! Hahaha…”


    “Enough of your nonsense! Move!”


    A few prison guards intervened and forcibly dragged Melvin away while the iron door slowly closed,


    muffling Melvin’s wails.


    Zuko’s phone rang once again, interrupting the tense atmosphere.


    “Zeke?” Melissa’s panicked voice came through. “W-What just happened? Who was screaming? Does


    it have anything to do with Lina?”


    Zuko rubbed his temples, trying to collect his thoughts, and replied softly, “Ma’am, don’t worry. It wasn’t


    Lina. I’m outside now, and it was just someone passing by.”


    “Someone passing by and making such strange noises?”


    Zuko’s mind was in turmoil, and he struggled to find the right words to exin the situation.


    There was a long pause on the phone, and Melissa had a sinking feeling. Despite not being Lina’s


    biological mother, they had developed a deep bond over the years. For the past few days, Melissa had


    been feeling restless, unable to eat or sleep properly, and her attempts to reach Lina had been


    unsessful. She feared that something might have really happened to her.


    “Zeke…” Her voice trembled. “Tell me… Tell me honestly. What happened to Lina? Please don’t scare


    me. I’ve been feeling anxious, and my heart hasn’t been righttely…”Books Chapters Are Daily

    Zuko spoke gently, but his wordsnded heavily on Melissa’s heart. “I’ll send someone to pick you up.


    I’ll exin everything in detail when you arrive in Centrolis.”


    Melissa agreed in a daze, feeling lost and overwhelmed.


    After ending the call, Zuko furrowed his brows, deep in thought.


    Toph supported Nichs as they left the room. Despite his own emotional turmoil, Toph reassured


    Nichs, “Uncle Nichs, don’t listen to that scum’s nonsense. Pammy and Renee are safe, and we’ll


    find a way to contact them.”


    “Yes, I’ve set up a tracking system…” Zuko nced down at his phone.


    This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    He had connected the tracking interface to his phone, ensuring that he wouldn’t miss any messages


    from Lina.


    However, there had been no activity for the past two days.


    Just as he finished speaking, his phone buzzed, grabbing his attention.


    A small star icon appeared on the screen, indicating a new notification.


    Zuko’s heart raced as he stared at the screen, his anticipation growing.


    Toph leaned in closer, equally focused on the screen.


    The star icon blinked intermittently, indicating a weak signal. After a moment, it settled at a specific


    location on the map.


    “Zuko, what is this!?” Toph couldn’t contain his excitement. “Is this it?”


    Zukoposed himself, his anxiety still palpable, as he tightly gripped his phone, his knuckles turning


    pale.


    The star ne he had given to Lina was custom-made, designed with a hidden chip that allowed


    tracking and simple messaging. As long as amunication device was avable, it could send out


    simple texts.


    The designer’s original intention was to ensure that two people who loved each other would never be


    separated.


    Zuko held his breath, his heart pounding, as the clock on the wall ticked away, each second feeling like


    an eternity.


    Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, his phone buzzed again!


    “Bro, it’s here!” Toph shouted with excitement.


    Zuko’s eyes lit up as he saw the small star icon glow on the screen, apanied by one clear word


    below it—[Fireflies].
