Married a Secret Billionaire

Zuko paused and called Jacob. “What happened at home?”

“It’s not your family,” Jacob replied in a low voice. “It’s the Thompsons.”

“The Thompsons?”

“It seems… it’s about the little girl betrothed to you in childhood,” Jacob said hastily. “I couldn’t inquire too much about your family matters. Just make a trip back.”

“Okay, got it,” replied Zuko, agreeing and ending the call.

Lina was walking ahead and did not hear him making the call. The night enveloped her joyful figure as she occasionally turned around and waved at him.

Zuko spent the next two days contemplating how to take a “leave” from the Jenners. After much consideration, he decided to be honest. “My younger brother called and said there’s something going on at home. He wants me to go back for a while. I won’t be away for long, just two or three days, and I’ll definitely rush back.”
