Zuko and Toph's safety was the top worry for Zephyr and Cordelia. To ensure their parents' peaceful retirement, they needed to ensure their own safety first.
Zuko hugged Cordelia and patted his father's shoulder. He understood that despite Zephyr's calm appearance, he was truly concerned. However, he couldn't reveal his vulnerable side in front of Cordelia.
"It's okay, everything's fine," Cordelia's voice trembled as she looked at her older son. "I was so scared!"
"Toph's had good luck since he was young." Zuko faintly smiled. "Mom, don't worry too much. He's destined for good luck. He'll be okay!"
"But this car accident is strange." Zephyr's brow furrowed. "He's always been a decent driver. How could this happen—"
Before he could finish, Lina arrived with a few people.
"Even good drivers can be victims of intentional harm!"
Zuko walked over to Lina, who gave him a small smile.
"These detectives are my dad's friends. When we heard about Toph's accident, I informed them. This case isn't complicated, and it's already been solved while Toph was getting treated!"
"Really?" Zephyr and Cordelia rushed over.
"Dad, mom, don't worry." Lina held Cordelia's hand. "Zuko and I have an answer about who's responsible. We asked the detectives to confirm our suspicions."
"That's right." One of the detectives smiled. "Ms. Thompson and Mr. Hamerton guessed correctly. The culprits behind Mr. Toph's accident belong to a small gang, and they've been apprehended."
"The one leading them is… Kaitlyn?" Zuko narrowed his eyes.
The detective nodded.
