Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 1169

The two girls looked exhausted, while the brothers were full of spirit. Toph, in particular, ordered a table full of skewers.

Zuko carefully picked out the fish bones and placed the grilled fish on Lina's plate.

"Are you feeling unwell?" he asked with concern, noticing her tired appearance.

"I have a slight headache," she replied.

His brow furrowed. "You've been working overtime recently. Is there too much work?"

"Let me tell you, Zuko!" Renee interjected, taking a sip of her beer. "The people in the office bully us interns. They make us do all the heavy lifting! And that Meanie Mollie... she's so cruel to us!"

Toph listened intently, growing increasingly angry.

Although he didn't know who Meanie Mollie was, anyone who bullied Renee became his enemy.

Renee shared everything that had happened that day. "They even said that we don't have boyfriends and nobody likes us!"

"God damn it!" Toph was getting pissed as he listened and slammed his hand on the table. "Tomorrow, I'll stand outside the building! Let's see who dares say that, then!"

Zuko interjected flatly, raising an eyebrow, "Toph, why would you want to stand there? Are you planning to be the door guardian?"

"Oh, brother?" Toph's eyes lit up. "I think you'd be better at that!"

Zuko playfully picked up a bamboo stick from the skewer, pretending to poke him.

"Alright, let's focus," he said, setting down his glass and turning serious. He looked at Lina and Renee, saying, "In big projects like this, there are many stakeholders, and it can get complicated with so many people involved. As interns, it's normal for others not to pay much attention to you."

Lina nodded in agreement. "That's what I thought too. The most important thing right now is to gain experience. Also..."

"What else?" Zuko asked, intrigued.

After a moment of thought, Lina continued. "I also think that in a project with many stakeholders, there are likely people who oppose my parents. Besides gaining experience, I want to find out who these people are, one by one!"
