Mary was delighted and spoke more, seeing that Zuko was interested.
“Let me tell you secretly… Actually, we all suspect that Lina’s parents kidnapped her!”
“What?” Zuko was somewhat shocked, and his eyes narrowed slightly. “Mrs. Nash, you can’t make baseless
accusations! I know best what kind of people my parents-in-law are!”
“You, child, I knew you’d take your mother-in-law’s side!” Mary pouted. “But I see that you’re an honest child and
don’t want you to be deceived by them! Those two, they may look honest, but who knows what they’re really like?
Only time will reveal their true nature!
“Besides, I’m not making baseless accusations. Just 20 years ago, they didn’t have a child yet. They went to the big
hospital in Centrolis for medical help, and when they came back after several months, they were carrying this girl!
“Hah!” Mary became more excited as she spoke. “They insisted that they were already pregnant before going to
Centrolis, but they didn’t notice it, and she was born in Centrolis. Hmph! Who are they trying to lie to!? That girl was
at least two years old and could already walk! Zeke, have you ever seen a child in any family who can walk just a
few months after being born?”
Zuko furrowed his brows, his heart involuntarily beating faster.
He felt as if he were surrounded by fog, knowing that the exit was right in front of him, but the fog blocked his
vision, and he could not see anything.
“Zeke, considering all this, do you think what I’m saying makes sense?” Mary asked when Zuko remained silent.
Zuko did not say anything.
Mary took his silence as agreement and grew even more excited, continuing to talk nonstop. “Zeke, you need to be
cautious with this family! If those two country bumpkins, Jesse and Melissa, could give birth to such a golden girl,
they must’ve saved the world in their previous life!
“So, I’m sure Lina isn’t their biological child. Hah! If she’s not biological, she’ll definitely be treated differently! Don’t
be fooled by how nicely they treat her now. They have a son in the family! This shop and their meager assets will all
go to their son in the future! Lina won’t get anything, and you won’t have anything, either!
“But it’s different in our family.” Mary smiled until the lines around her eyes were all the family assets will belong to
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtour daughter in the future!”
She was convinced that the several hair salons owned by the Nashes would have great appeal to this silent and
reserved young man.
However, Zuko gave her a cold glance.
Mary’s heart skipped a beat. She had never seen such a chilling and sharp gaze in her life, especially coming from a
young man in his 20s.
Zuko spoke, and there was an inexplicable sense of oppression. “Mrs. Nash, do you need anything else? Recently,
we have cooked food in the supermarket, like… sausages and such!”
“Oh, no need, no need!” Mary quickly stepped back, forcing a smile. “I was just browsing, just looking around…
Zeke, you go about your business, don’t mind me!”
After saying that, she grabbed her large bag and hurriedly fled from the supermarket as if escaping.
Zuko stared at her retreating figure, and a trace of gloom crossed his sharply defined face.
‘Lina was… kidnapped?’
He found it really hard to believe.
Usually, Jesse and Melissa showered this daughter with endless love and care, almost to the point of spoiling her.
Who would treat a child who was not their own so well?
If someone said Dave was adopted, it might have some credibility.
Yet… Lina indeed did not resemble them. How could that be explained?
Zuko felt like a heavy rock was weighing on his heart, and his mind was confused for no apparent reason.
After being lost in thought for a while, he suddenly discovered the petite figure standing at the shop entrance when
he looked up!
“Why are you here?” Zuko was taken aback.
Lina looked at him silently, her face expressionless. Her lips curled up slightly, but it was not her usual smile.
“What’s wrong? Can’t I come? Or am I here at a bad time?”
“Uh…”
Mary was delighted and spoke more, seeing that Zuko was interested.
“Let me tell you secretly… Actually, we all suspect that Lina’s parents kidnapped her!”
