Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 1097

When Toph first laid eyes on Lina, he couldn't help but stare at her for a while. He not only stared, but he also approached her directly, wanting to get a closer look.

However, just as he was getting closer, a big hand suddenly grabbed him by the back of his neck! A stern and icy voice followed. "What do you think you're doing?"

Toph sat back in his seat, wearing an embarrassed smile as he scratched his head. "No, no... Zuko, let go!"

Lina joined in with a smile and coughed lightly to ease the awkwardness.

Zuko glanced at his brother and pulled Lina's chair closer to him.

Toph had never seen his older brother act so possessive before. He chuckled and stood up, taking the initiative to introduce himself, "I'm Toph, his favorite younger brother!"

Zuko scowled. "Not anymore."

"Bro, do me a favor!"

Zuko looked at Toph, and their eyes met, causing them both to burst into laughter.

"This is Renee Thompson." Toph placed a hand on Renee's shoulder. "Renee, this is the sister-in-law I was telling you about, Lina Jenner!"

The two girls nodded slightly and exchanged smiles across the table.

From Zuko's perspective, their smiles seemed somewhat similar...

"Lina, I apologize for earlier," Toph said, "Normally, I don't stare at people like that, but..."

"But what?"
