Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 1078

Rowan found it strange. He had asked several questions on the phone, and his wife punched him in the end.

"You're such a fool!" Xyla was furious. "Zuko must have his reasons for requesting that! Just do as he says. Why do you have so many questions?"

"But... It's highly unusual for him!"

"What's so unusual about it? He wouldn't harm you!" Xyla rolled her eyes and took the phone from him. "Zuko! Hehe, don't worry. I'll do it. I'll turn it off for you right now!"

"Okay, thanks, grandma!"

"So... there won't be any bodyguards around either?" Xyla inquired.

"You're psychic, grandma!" Zuko replied.

Xyla smiled and turned to instruct the butler. "Send this message. Nobody is allowed in the backyard tonight. Nobody disturbs Zuko!"

Zuko happily ended the call. Just as he was about to change, Toph called.

"Bro!"

Zuko paused, his brow furrowing. "Where are you? Why is it so noisy over there?"

"I'm in Jangasas," Toph replied.

"What?" Zuko was shocked. "You're here too? What about our parents? Why did you come?"

Usually, it was Toph who had many questions, but now Zuko was the one questioning him.

Toph, on the other end of the line, seemed uneasy. He didn't tease him and coughed twice before speaking in a lowered voice. "Bro, there's something... I must tell you. I came with Pammy."

Zuko widened his eyes but said nothing.

"But she's been acting strange," Toph said. "She seems moody. Every time she looks at me, it's like she wants to say something but can't. I can't figure out what she's thinking at all!"

"Perhaps she doesn't have enough confidence to tell you things, or maybe she has her reasons and isn't ready yet," Zuko said softly. "Observe her closely and call me if anything happens."

"What about you? When are you coming home?" Toph asked.

"I'll come home once I finish with my matters in Southeast Aciatic," Zuko replied.

Toph chuckled. "She's there to study, but what about you?"

"I-I'm here to visit our grandparents and uncle," Zuko claimed.

"So, did you see them already?" Toph asked.

"Toph!" Zuko gritted his teeth. "If you keep this up, I'll teach you a lesson when I return to Jangasas!"

Toph giggled before they hung up.

Soon, Lina emerged after changing her clothes and happily took his hand. They set off and made their way to the back of Irwin Manor, shrouded in darkness.

"There really is a path here, Zeke... but it's so dark!

"What they say on the Internet is true, Zeke. Nobody is watching!"

Suddenly, Lina screamed, "Ah, Zeke!"
