Semua Bab Married a Secret Billionaire: Bab 1031 - Bab 1040

His elder brother's management was not good. The Grist Group had actually been in decline for a long time. If it were not for his hard work in supporting it all these years, the Grist Group would not be where it was today.Just as things were settling down, another issue with a batch of beverage formulas emerged, and now Violet's problem surfaced. Fred did not want to be a pawn for others anymore!"If he really is Zuko..." he murmured to himself, a faint smile appearing on his face.Immediately, he picked up the phone and called his assistant, saying, "Book me a table at the same hotel as last time! And find a way to arrange a meeting with Lina Jenner for me…"Forget it." He changed his mind. "I'll go and meet her myself!"Lina had been cautious of everyone from the Grists because of Violet, so going to meet her in person would show his sincerity.After hanging up, Fred went to the bathroom and looked at himself in the mirror, tidying his hair and smiling in satisfaction.In Cen

Toph told Zuko about the strange incident he encountered at the hospital.Upon hearing that, Zuko sneered, "It seems that Pammy's being controlled by Melvin. If she's the real Pammy, it means Melvin's involved in kidnapping her back then!""What if she's fake?" Toph added, "Then it means that everything's orchestrated by Melvin!""Keep it down for now." Zuko lowered his voice. "Not only because we don't have enough evidence, but also... to consider Uncle Nicholas and Aunt Linda's feelings. They believe they've found their daughter. Until the truth is revealed, we shouldn't dampen their spirits.""Yeah, I understand... Now that Melvin's surely wary of us, we need to act low-key!""Cough, it's you, not me." Zuko laughed. "We can start tracking after your leg heals. If you keep hobbling around on crutches, anyone with eyes and ears will know what you're up to!"Toph rolled his eyes. "Hey, aren't you planning to come back anytime soon? My foot is injured. Won't you come and visit me?

Fred felt choked and struggled to find the right words, so he awkwardly laughed and pretended to take a sip of wine, trying to conceal his unease. It became apparent that Lina was fiercely protective of her husband, making it challenging to obtain any useful information from her at the moment.Putting down his wine glass, Fred felt the heat in the restaurant. The temperature was unexpectedly high, and it made him sweat after just a few sips of wine.Moreover, not even a single dish had been served so far. There was only a bottle of wine on the table and nothing else!Fred furrowed his brows. This was supposed to be Best Level, which was renowned for its quality of service and cuisine!He pressed the call button, but it seemed like the server had vanished into thin air. None of them had come, even after a long wait. Fred felt extremely embarrassed. He had invited someone to a meal and ended up being left alone. He had never felt so humiliated in his life!Zuko, hiding behind the de

Lina looked at him, her heart skipping several beats, and the warmth of his lips seemed to linger on hers.Zuko's hand lightly brushed against her ear, tucking away the stray hair behind it. He liked looking at her face like this—clean and refreshing with delicate features. The small mole at the corner of her eye was like an embellishment unlike any other in the world.His thumb caressed her cheek gently, tender and affectionate."Z-Zeke, you..." Lina's mind went blank.Was he confessing his feelings to her? Did he also like her?A confession like this was too direct...She had never been in a relationship before, and she did not know what other people's confessions were like. She only knew that her whole body was bubbling in pink, and her heart was filled with sweetness. However, her rationale told her that she should be reserved and not giggle too exaggeratedly as a girl.Hence, she gave a shallow smile with a lowered head, casting her eyes downward. Her long eyelashes cast sh

Renee silently nodded.Just then, the cable car passed through a junction and shook for a moment. Renee grasped the railing tightly to steady herself.Melvin glanced at her expressionlessly.In the past 20 years, he had never acknowledged this daughter of his, nor had he ever cared about her. She was a stain in his life.He had never loved Renee's mother. It was just a moment of indulgence after getting drunk. Besides, her mother was not exactly clean either. Which respectable girl would go to a bar to dance and flirt in the middle of the night?Melvin had no intention of taking responsibility. Once he pulled up his pants, he would not acknowledge anyone. He never expected that a year later, that woman would show up with a baby, claiming that she had fallen in love with him at first sight, and that was why she had given birth to their child.Melvin secretly had a DNA paternity test done on the child, and it turned out to be his own! Coincidentally, Pamela was also born around the
