“But…” Lina’s suspicion grew. “How do you know such a powerful artist? How do you know what she thinks?”

Her questions took Zuko aback, his mind racing to find a plausible excuse.

Suddenly, he remembered his brother’s story about their parents’ love story from their youth. Although he wasn’t

very knowledgeable about it, his brother had added some embellishments to make it more interesting.

According to his brother, their father had also hidden his true identity to deceive their mother.

He had heard that their mother had almost exposed their father’s lies on several occasions, but he always

managed to talk his way out of it.

He had heard…

But what had their father said to get away with it?

Zuko scratched his nose anxiously. The more flustered he became, the harder it was for him to come up with an

excuse, especially when faced with Lina’s clear and perceptive eyes.

If only his brother were there… He wouldn’t blush when he lied, his heartbeat would remain steady, and his acting

was so convincing. He was like a carbon copy of their talented actor uncle.

Lina persisted as he remained silent, growing more suspicious. “Zeke, how do you know her so well? And how did

you get a VIP account on that website?

“You used to… forge IDs,” she speculated further. “Don’t tell me you also stole accounts?”

An idea suddenly struck Zuko, filling him with relief. Wasn’t that a plausible explanation?

He slipped up. “You’re so clever!”

“Huh?” Lina was taken aback. “Did I guess correctly?”

“Yes, yes, yes!” Zuko nodded enthusiastically.

“But why would you steal that account? You’re not a professional auctioneer! And how do you know Madam Irwin’s

paintings are valuable?”

Once again, Zuko found himself dumbstruck, unable to come up with a response.

“What are the two of you doing?” At that moment, Melissa popped her head out of the kitchen. “Stop chatting!

Come help me, Zeke!”

“Mom, I’m talking to him…”

“You can talk to him later!” She smiled. “Go clean the fish, Zeke. Then go to the store. I think they’re delivering

more stock in the afternoon. Go help with the moving!”

Zuko agreed instantly and went to the kitchen eagerly.

Lina stomped her feet and stared at her mother in a blaming manner.

Melissa came out while holding a pan and whispered. “Aren’t you happy that I’m teaching him a lesson for you, you

silly girl?”

Lina forced a smile, holding back what she was going to say.

“See?” Melissa smiled in satisfaction. “He’s becoming more and more like our family now!”

“Mom!” Lina blushed. She turned around and went back to her room.

Zuko slammed the life out of the fish in the kitchen. He removed the scales and organs, cleaning them entirely.

The more Melissa watched his agile movements, the happier she was. She could not help but compliment him. “We

need a man at home. Not only are you good with housework, but you can protect us too!”

Zuko wanted to laugh when he heard that. “Auntie, aren’t Uncle Jesse and Dave men?”

“Ugh, how could that old geezer and little kid compare with you?” she said.

“Umm…”

“Zeke, our home has indeed been much more peaceful since you came!” she added.

Zuko tried his best to hide his smile. It seemed like the door guardian was useful.

Melissa looked at him while smiling. “I thought about it. After spending a year and a half with Lina… Replace the

fake marriage certificate with a real one, okay?”

Zuko’s ears started ringing, his hands trembled, and he accidentally poured half a bottle of olive oil into the pan.
