Zuko was interrupted by a sudden ringing of his phone. The screen displayed a string of numbers, causing Lina to
be taken aback. However, she noticed the calm smile on Zuko’s face.
“It’s my younger brother,” he explained in a low voice. “I remember his number, so I don’t save it.”
Zuko was about to reject the call, but Lina stopped him. “He must have something important to tell you if he’s
calling.”
“What important matter could he have—”
“Answer it quickly!” Lina smiled gently. “I just finished washing some clothes. I’ll go hang them up on the balcony!”
Zuko observed Lina’s delicate figure with complex emotions. After a moment of hesitation, he walked out of the
room to answer the call.
Before he could speak resentfully and ask, “What do you want?” the other end of the line was filled with Toph’s

“Bro, no matter what you’re doing right now, you have to let me finish…” Toph’s voice came through.
Zuko lowered his voice. “What’s the matter?”
“Well…” Toph paused for a moment before cautiously asking, “You’re not engaged in any ‘serious business’ right
now, are you?”
“Toph, if you say another word, I’ll fly over there and beat you up!”
Toph chuckled, wondering how he managed to make his older brother so angry that he did not even use
punctuation in his speech.
“Seriously, I have important news to tell you.” Toph suppressed his laughter, cleared his throat twice, and continued
in a lower voice. “I have news about Pamela’s whereabouts!”
“What did you say?” asked Zuko.
“It was Renee who told me… but Zuko, you have to keep it a secret. Until the truth is revealed, you must…”
“What nonsense are you saying?” Zuko frowned. “And who’s Renee?”
There was a moment of silence on the other end, then Toph whispered, “Renee is the current Pamela. She’s
Melvin’s illegitimate daughter, and she told me that… the real Pamela is very likely in Jangasas, and her name is Gia
Chapman!”
“Gia Chapman?” Zuko felt a thunderous roar in his ears.
Toph quickly summarized the recent events. However, Zuko’s thoughts were fixated on the possibility of Gia being
Pamela. How could that be possible? What connection did Gia have with Nicholas and Linda? Even if Pamela grew
up in a harsh environment, Zuko firmly believed that certain traits were innate. Nicholas and Linda were kind-
hearted people, and he couldn’t imagine Pamela becoming someone who would harm others.
“Yeah, Renee also thinks it’s impossible,” Toph said in a low voice. “Anyway, there are still many doubts surrounding
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthis matter… Bro, I told you about it now, so you have to keep it a secret! Renee and I discussed it. We won’t let
Uncle Nicholas and Aunt Linda know for now. We’ll only reveal the truth when we find the real Pammy!”
“Alright, I understand.”
“By the way…” Toph asked again, “If… Gia is really Pammy, will you still go through with your engagement to her?”
Zuko stood against the wall and forcefully rubbed his temples, feeling exhausted. He couldn’t answer that question.
He would never be with a woman like Gia, even if he didn’t have Lina by his side.
“We’ll discuss it in the future. I’m hanging up now.”
After ending the call, Zuko was engulfed in chaos for a few minutes. However, he quickly regained his composure
and organized his thoughts.
If Gia was indeed Pamela, it was evident that she was unaware of her true identity at the moment. Perhaps Melvin
had orchestrated a switch between the girls, and Gia remained oblivious to the truth.
Once she discovered that she was the Thompsons’ daughter, she might resort to even more sinister methods to
deal with Lina.
Only by revealing his true identity could Zuko protect Lina completely.
His clenched fists trembled slightly, with the veins on the back of his hand bulging.
