Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 1326

Chris followed Lena into the house. When he saw her locking herself in a room, he secretly went around outside and watched her through the window.

He observed her holding the wooden rifle, unwilling to take her eyes off it. Then she took a piece of cloth and carefully wiped it, treating the rifle as a precious treasure.

A warm feeling suddenly welled up in Chris' heart, and he smiled unconsciously.

At that moment, his phone vibrated, and he hurriedly went away to answer the call.

Zuko's deep voice came from the other end. "Professor Adam's in Centrolis. I've contacted him through Uncle Seth and Aunt Zennie, and we'll meet in the afternoon the day after tomorrow. I'll go with Lina… and the truth will likely be revealed soon.

"The day after tomorrow?" Chris found it a little late. "Why can't he speed things up and make it tomorrow since he's close to Aunt Zennie?"

"He has a patient tomorrow," Zuko explained. "Doesn't really have the time for us."

"A patient?" Chris was surprised and joked, "I see he's acquainted with others in Centrolis aside from us! I thought he only knew the Hamertons!"

Zuko chuckled, sharing the same thought. Zennie and Seth were Adam's only two students in Centrolis. Other than the Hamertons, no one else could persuade him to accept a case.

It was worth wondering who the patient was since they were so capable.

"Never mind, we'll solve the mystery sooner or later."

Chris nodded, hesitating for a moment as he considered his words. "Zuko, your idea is really good, but I'm unsure what to do next."

Zuko was confused. "What idea?"

"What you said about giving her a shot the last time…"

Zuko was rendered speechless, his astonishment evident.

"W-What?" He raised his voice. "You really gave her a shot?"

"Yeah. It's wood, but it's an effort from me!"

What was Chris talking about?"

"I can see that she really likes my gun!"

Zuko nearly choked on his coffee.

"But she was a little upset just now." Chris continued. "Zuko, do you think I shouldn't have shown off shooting poses and my skills in front of her?"

Zuko coughed violently.

"What's up with you? Caught a cold?"

"It's nothing." Zuko did his best to hold everything in. "Go on."

He really wondered what other surprises Mr. Special Forces had for him.

"Zuko, I get it!" Chris said excitedly, "I should make another gun and play with her!"

"Alright… Enough!"

Before Chris could speak, Zuko hung up.
