Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 1339

"Uh... honey." Zuko wrapped his arms around Linar from behind, burying his face in her neck and taking a deep breath. His voice was husky as he asked, "Shouldn't we... fulfill the elderly's wishes?"

Lina put down her documents and turned around to caress his face with a smile. "I'm not against that. Didn't we agree to let things happen naturally?"

Zuko felt her flat stomach. "But, it's been so long without any news. Is it because I haven't worked hard enough?"

"You..." Lina pushed him away.

Not enough? He was clearly quite diligent! How many times had he claimed his allowance this month?

The Hamertons' rule was 70 dollars, but he had made tens of times that!

"Honey!" Zuko continued to cling to her and whined.

Lina cradled his face and reasoned with him. "Zuko, I really don't have the time or mood today! Besides having a lot of work to do, I also need to check on Renee."

Speaking of Renee, Zuko thought of Toph and turned serious. "By the way, it seems like she's avoiding even Toph's visits lately. When my parents go to see her, she locks herself in her room, too. Will something go wrong if she keeps this up?"

"That's what I'm concerned about." Lina nodded. "A person's personality is bound to undergo some changes after experiencing a huge change. I thought of getting her a psychologist, but she refused."

This answer was within Zuko's expectations.

Renee was a girl with a sensitive personality, naturally carrying a touch of melancholy.

Toph's cheerfulness had only saved her for a while, but it seemed to have lost its effect since Kaitlyn's passing.

"People like her won't actively seek help even if they know there's a problem." Zuko stroked Lina's head. "People tend to avoid addressing their problems, especially someone as sensitive as Renee."

"But it's best if someone can constantly guide and counsel her," Lina said.

Zuko thought for a moment. "Isn't Lena living with your parents?"

"Don't bring it up." Lina smiled wryly. "Renee seems to really dislike Lenny and doesn't want to talk to her. Also, Lenny mentioned that the way Renee looks at her seems different from usual."
