Chapter 1312


    Lina giggled and yfully tugged at his ear. “Doraemon doesn’t seem to have ears, though?”


    “I’m different.” Zuko’s eyes were smiling. “I’m Lina’s exclusive Doraemon, the only one in the world!


    That’s why I have ears.”


    “What do you need ears for?”


    Zuko leaned closer, his nose nuzzling her small face, his voice husky. “To… obey your every


    command!”


    Lina’s heart warmed, and she hugged him. With him by her side, she would no longer be afraid of


    anything.


    They entered the Thompson residence hand in hand. There seemed to be quite a few people in the


    living room.


    Before Zuko could even see who was there, he heard Toph’s enthusiastic voice booming. “Hey, bro!”


    Zuko paused. “You’re here as well?”


    “Of course. Since you’re apanying your wife back to her family, can’t Ie to see my dearest


    Uncle Nichs and Aunt Linda?”


    Toph was still the carefree young man he used to be. Their argument at the horse ranch seemed to


    have been quickly forgotten.


    Zuko felt relief and concern for his younger brother’s nature. He felt relieved as carefree individuals


    often enjoyed better sleep by swiftly letting go of worries, which promoted good health and longevity.


    However, his worry stemmed from…


    Zuko nced at the sofa. Sure enough, his concern hade to pass. Toph hadpletely ignored


    their advice.


    Sitting on the sofa were not only Renee but also Kaitlyn.


    Zuko furrowed his brow slightly, exchanging a puzzled nce with Lina. They held an unspoken


    question in their eyes.


    “Mr. Zuko!” Kaitlyn greeted him politely with a gentle smile.


    Zuko nodded slightly and sat on the opposite sofa with Lina.


    Nichs served his daughter and son-inw the best tea.


    Lina looked at him. “Dad, I want to talk to you about something.”


    “Sure, go ahead.”Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…


    “Dad…” Lina hesitated.


    “Is it something rted to work?” Kaitlyn suddenly interjected. “The recent incident has caused quite a


    stir. Is it about the Thompson Group’s project?”


    Zuko chuckled softly. “Aunt Kaitlyn, you’re quite well-informed.”


    “Of course!” Toph chimed in. “Aunt Kaitlyn’s keeping up with the times! Besides, Renee will return to


    work in the future, so Aunt Kaitlyn naturally needs to pay more attention to the news in this field.”


    “Is the situation very serious?” Kaitlyn looked worriedly at Lina. “I only know that the project has been


    giarized, but we currently don’t have any evidence. So… is there no way to sue the other party?”


    “Yes.” Lina nodded. “Aunt Kaitlyn, you don’t need to worry about it. I will handle it.”


    “Oh.” Kaitlyn looked a bit embarrassed, lowering her head and nodding. “Have I been too


    meddlesome? Did I make you unhappy because of it?”


    “Aunt Kaitlyn…”


    “If I’ve made you unhappy, then I won’t say anything.”


    Kaitlyn shifted slightly to the side as if trying to iste herself from the rest of the group. Her cautious


    demeanor made people feel a bit sorry for her.


    Lina thought she might havee across as too indifferent just now, so she quickly exined, “Aunt


    Kaitlyn, I didn’t mean that at all! Please don’t misunderstand.”


    “It’s okay. It’s okay!” Kaitlyn looked up at her and smiled softly. “We’re family, after all. I heard there’s


    been an issue with the Thompson Group, so Renee and I are also worried.”


    Zuko gently squeezed Lina’s hand. Perhaps he was the only one in this room who could maintain a


    calm mind.


    Zuko smiled slightly. “Aunt Kaitlyn, please don’t misunderstand Lina. In fact, the two of usck


    experience in this area. We would actually appreciate hearing the opinions of our elders.”
