For many years, Renee and her mother, relied on each other for survival, living a poor but simple and happy life.

Their world was actually very small—so small that it only consisted of the two of them.

“If you don’t want your mother to die, then listen to me!” Melvin viciously grabbed her chin. “Heh, help me gain

control of the Thompsons, and your mother will be saved, understand?”

Renee nodded incessantly.

Despite feeling guilty about deceiving Nicholas and his wife, Melvin insisted that she continue acting. Therefore, she

had to steel herself and continue with the charade.

“By the way, you’ve been getting close to Toph lately, right?”

“No…” Renee’s voice choked. “I… I haven’t given him a chance to touch me… Last time at the hospital, it was just a

coincidence…”

“I don’t think you dare reveal anything!” Melvin stared coldly at her, contemplating. “The Hamertons are not to be

underestimated. They definitely have suspicions about you!”

“What should I do?”

“Toph might’ve already discovered something…” Melvin murmured, “In that case, you don’t need to avoid him

anymore. If he wants to contact you, let him. Leave the rest to me!”

Renee timidly nodded, leaning against the cable car window. Even her breathing was cautious.

…

It had been several days, but Jesse’s back was still uncomfortable.

At first, Melissa thought he was just being lazy, wanting her to serve him all the time, so she resorted to her

“disciplinary measures”.

Halfway through it and seeing Jesse completely defenseless and crying out in misery, she realized that the old

man’s back was truly unwell!

Melissa panicked, afraid of making it worse, and hurriedly wanted to take him to the hospital. It was at this moment

that Zuko stepped forward.

He tried acupuncture and massage on Jesse a few times and went to the pharmacy to get some medicine.

Three days later, Jesse miraculously recovered, and his back seemed even more flexible. He could even go to the

square and do pull-ups!

Lina looked at Zuko with surprise and admiration in her eyes. “How come I never knew you had this skill?”

Zuko calmly put away the box of silver needles and smiled. “Good to be a jack of all trades. I learned it on my own.”

Melissa proudly said, “I told you, Zeke’s a talented person! Look, my judgment is absolutely correct, right?”

Lina smiled and turned to the kitchen to cut some fruits.

Zuko followed her in, taking the fruit knife, afraid she would cut her hand.

In the following days, the entire lane knew that Melissa’s son-in-law was a self-taught magic doctor and a skilled

individual.

Melissa’s original intention was to show off a bit, but she did not expect the middle-aged men and women to come

one after another every day to seek treatment from Zuko…

Zuko did not refuse, but Lina felt sorry for him. She was worried that it would be too tiring for him and feared that

they would expose some problems, leading to accusations of practicing medicine without a license.

“Don’t worry.” Zuko rubbed her head. “They don’t have any serious illnesses. I’m only giving some advice for daily

maintenance. Nothing will go wrong.”

“Mmm…” Lina nodded. Her expression suddenly became serious, her beautiful big eyes staring at him. “Mrs. Nash

came several times too. I heard she’s bringing her daughter tomorrow?”

Zuko was stunned for a moment.

“N-No!” He hurriedly explained, “Don’t worry. If she comes tomorrow, I’ll hide. You can say I’m not home!”

“No need for that,” Lina said nonchalantly, a faint smile curling up at the corner of her lips. “Let her come

tomorrow. I want to see what that mother and daughter are up to!”

“Lina, you…” Zuko smiled, wondering if she was planning to fight someone for his sake.
