Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 973

Melissa smiled and thought to herself that she initially thought Zuko was imprisoned for fighting and brawling, but it turned out to be for document forgery, which elevated his skills to a whole new level. Once someone had a talent, it was like they glowed.

"Zeke, if that's the case, you can be considered a skilled criminal!" Melissa said, "I can rest assured now since you went to prison for this! It's better than fighting!

"Zeke, it's alright to have taken the wrong path. What's important is to change! You made this marriage certificate so realistic, which shows that you have good skills! You should redirect your talent for forging documents and use it for something else—to contribute to society!"

"Yes! I completely agree!" Jesse chimed in. "Hey, Zeke, can you counterfeit money too?"

Zuko coughed and choked on his food, unable to respond.

Dave was holding back his laughter, and his face turned red.

Lina quickly shot her parents a look, signaling them to stop. She got up and poured a glass of water for Zuko.

Zuko struggled to swallow.

He could not make counterfeit money, but he could draw it. His painting skills were inherited from his maternal grandmother, who once fetched a staggering $30,000,000 for a painting of fireflies.

"I have to admit, your timing with the certificates was impeccable." Lina smiled at Zuko and put the marriage certificates away in a drawer. "I was worried all day today that Violet would come looking for trouble again!"

"With me around, she wouldn't dare," Zuko said softly.

Lina was startled, and her heart rate suddenly became irregular for some reason.

...

After dinner, Lina walked out of the alley alone. It was past 8:00 p.m., a time when people came out to chat and enjoy the cool evening breeze, especially since the beach was not far from there. She often went to the beach to relax.
