Chris pondered briefly, and it seemed this was the case. Recently, whenever he phoned Toph, the voice on the other end sounded downcast. There was even a time when Toph asked him if he should keep pursuing his art. That wasn’t how Toph used to be.

Chris frowned slightly and spoke softly. “I’ve long suspected that Renee is manipulating Toph. She’s gradually eroding his confidence for her own gain.”

Chris glanced at Zuko, “To put it simply, perhaps her recent suicide attempt is another part of her manipulation of Toph.”

“No need for euphemisms. That’s the harsh reality,” Zuko replied, showing a photo from his phone. It displayed a small, empty brown glass bottle with the label torn off.

“This is what my mom found in Renee’s room. It’s the sleeping pills she took to attempt suicide. But I don’t know how to find this brand of sleeping pills.”

Chris looked at it. It was just an ordinary pill bottle, nothing special. The label was intentionally torn off, obviously not wanting anyone to know what was inside.

“My mom wants to know where these sleeping pills came from,” Zuko said softly. “Aunt Linda isn’t taking sleeping pills anymore, and there’s no way anyone from the Thompsons has these.”

“So you suspect she collaborated with someone outside to get the pills, then took a risky chance and threatened Toph with her own life?” Chris asked.

Zuko neither confirmed nor denied it.
