Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 1049

After spending only a few days at home, Zuko hurried back to Jangasas.

As soon as he arrived, Zuko presented the bangle to Lina as if offering her a prize.

Lina was both surprised and pleased. "What's this?" she asked.

Before Zuko left, Lina had jokingly asked him to bring back something from Centrolis for her. It could have been a simple keychain—she just wanted a token to show that he had thought of her.

Never did Lina expect that Zuko would bring back such an expensive bangle.

The jade bangle, adorned with gold, was exquisite and of high quality. Although Lina knew little about jade, she could tell at a glance that it was valuable.

As Lina hesitated whether to accept it, Zuko chuckled and took her hand, sliding the bangle onto her wrist.

"This is a family heirloom," Zuko explained. "My mom said that my wife should take care of it!"

Lina's eyes widened. "Really?"

"Yes! She even mentioned that she wants to meet you!" Zuko added.

"That's not what I'm asking about," Lina clarified.

Confused, Zuko nodded and smiled. "Well, actually, it's not anything precious... It's not expensive at all. Just wear it! I brought it back to show you my sincerity."

"What sincerity?" Lina asked, though she already knew the answer. She blushed as soon as the words left her mouth.

Seizing the opportunity, Zuko inched closer and wrapped his arms around her waist.

After spending time together, Zuko finally felt comfortable openly entering Lina's room.

Furthermore, Lina's family had coordinated their efforts this time. Dave had gone to his tuition class while her parents had offered to take care of the store. They were the only ones at home.

Zuko felt a surge of excitement as he caught a whiff of Lina's fragrance.

"Lina..." Zuko's deep voice carried a smile. "Do you truly not understand the significance of me giving this to you?"

"I don't. Explain it to me," Lina replied.

"Of course." Zuko grinned and leaned in for a kiss.

Unable to resist, Lina was swept away as soon as their lips met.

Once one tasted something sweet, they'd crave it every day.

No matter what Lina said, Zuko was willing to solve any problem with a kiss.

If one kiss wasn't enough, he'd kiss her two times, three times...

Lina pushed against his chest, and Zuko firmly grasped her wrists, pressing her against the desk. He was fully committed.

However, their intimate moment was interrupted by a voice. "Lina, are you home?"

Lina's heart raced, and she quickly pushed Zuko away.

Gia's voice echoed from downstairs. "Lina, I came in because your door was open!"
