    “Lenny, are you adjusting well over there? Do you know that I’ve been to that mountainous region?”

    There was no response from the other end, but Chris continued to talk.


    “Haha, you don’t believe me? I really have been there! Back when I was still in the military, I assisted a


    special police unit in that area to eliminate a criminal gang. Hehe… I even earned some merits! So,


    how about it? Do you think your man is impressive?


    “I knew it. You must think I’m impressive!


    “By the way, Lenny, Renee… has been prosecuted. Since herst uproar at the Thompsons’, Uncle


    Nichs and Aunt Linda have not nned to let her off. She’s now receiving the punishment she


    deserves.


    “Lenny, look, they all love you very much… and Pammy sends you messages daily. Haven’t you seen


    them?


    “Oh, I know, the signal in the mountains is not great, and you can’t receive messages sometimes,


    right?”


    Lena giggled on the other end. That was true—the signal was not very good in the mountains, so she


    had stopped using her phone. Every day at this time, she would stand in a very old public telephone


    booth, insert two coins, and listen to Chris’ voice.


    “Lenny, I…” Chris seemed to have a lot to say today. “I’ve always wanted to say, I’m sorry.”


    Lena was taken aback, her heart pounding.


    “I know you’ve always yearned for the warmth of a family. And I… I shattered that dream. I’m sorry.”


    Lena’s lips moved, but no sound came out. Tears streamed down her face.


    He understood all of her thoughts. Did he also know that the “family” she yearned for included him?


    “Lenny, Pammy misses you a lot,” Chris said softly. “She said that whether you have a blood


    rtionship or not, you’ll always be her sister.”


    Lena nodded with a smile while tears flowed down her face. No matter what, Lina would always be her


    sister, and she would never abandon her sister.


    “Pammy will be giving birth in three more months.” Chris smiled. “It’s said to be a girl. Won’t youe


    back to see the little princess?”


    –


    Three monthster…


    The due date forbor was approaching, and Lina became increasingly restless. A few days ago, she


    did not feel well, so she checked into the hospital early for childbirth. The doctor said the baby’s arrival


    would be any day now, so they needed to be prepared.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay

    Zuko was so nervous he did not dare to sleep and stayed by Lina’s bedside every day.


    Cordelia smiled and pushed Zuko out, urging him to get some rest in the nearby room.


    “You won’t get much sleep when the baby’s here!” Cordelia teased. “Now that she’s not here yet,


    conserve your energy for when she arrives. You’ll be taking care of her day and night!”


    “But…”


    “Pammy has me and Linda to take care of her. Now, go and get some sleep!”


    Zuko scratched his head apologetically. “Mom… was I so fussy that I kept you up when I was born


    too?”


    A loud cough sounded. “Of course!”


    No matter how old Zuko was, that voice would always carry a sense of intimidation by blood.


    He turned to meet Zephyr’s gaze and chuckled fawningly after a pause. “Dad…”


    “You rascal, when you were just born, all you did was cry and feed. As you grew up, you kept your


    mom awake for years. She couldn’t get a full night’s sleep!”


    Nichs, who was nearby, shot Zephyr a disdainful look.


    “It seems… your house had plenty of servants and nannies back then. It wasn’t as difficult as you’re


    making it sound,” he said.


    Zephyr red at him. “Don’t speak unless spoken to, got it?”


    Lina had been somewhat irritable just a while ago, but her mood had brightened considerably now. She


    nced at her phone—still no messages from Lena. She sighed softly.
