Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 975

Lina had just finished organizing the snacks on the shelves when she turned around and looked at her mother. "You two are really good at this, huh?"

"That's not it about your mom!" Jesse smirked. "She doesn't care when people talk about her as long as they don't touch her money. Try messing with her money, and they'll know!"

"Jesse Jenner!" Melissa immediately threw a bottle of water at him, narrowly missing his head.

"I'm serious," Melissa said, looking at Zeke, who was moving the goods outside. "Since he came into our lives, our lives have been much more peaceful!

"Didn't Dave say that Lina found us a door guardian?

"How long can this guardian stay? Does he have any other family members?"

"What are you doing?" interjected Lina.

"I'm getting to know more about him!" Melissa thought for a moment. "Don't get involved in these matters. I'll interrogate him slowly and make him confess the truth!"

Lina looked at her mother, feeling both amused and exasperated, and laughed softly.

After Jesse and Melissa finished organizing the goods, they went home to eat. Since Lina had no classes, she stayed behind to watch the store.

Zuko sat in a cool spot by the entrance, drinking cold water in big gulps.

Suddenly, a fair dainty hand reached out, holding two cups of milk tea.

"Here!"

Zuko looked up and saw a pair of sparkling eyes.

"One is strawberry slush, and the other is bubble milk tea. Which one do you like?" asked Lina.

"No, I—"

"Just take it and drink!" Lina insisted, handing him the strawberry slush. "This one's cold. It'll keep you cool!"

Zuko continued with a blank expression. "These drinks are made with artificial sweeteners without any milk or tea. They aren't good for your health."

"You..." Lina rolled her eyes. "I kindly bought milk tea for you, and now you're criticizing it? If you think this one's made with artificial sweeteners, then why don't you make a cup of real milk tea for me?"

Little did she know, Zuko nodded earnestly. "That won't be an issue."

Lina snorted and got up, walking toward the supermarket.

A screeching sound of brakes broke the afternoon silence just then.

Lina halted in her tracks and saw a luxury car parked at the entrance, followed by a van.

First, a few thugs got off the van, their eyes filled with malicious intent as they sneered at the small supermarket. Then, the car door opened, and Violet stepped out in high heels, looking down at the two people in front of her with arrogance.

"Not bad. You've actually started a little family business now?"
