While conversing, they suddenly heard sounds from behind the fire escape corridor’s door.

Swiftly, Zuko opened the door, revealing a visibly embarrassed Renee, her head lowered.

Lina was surprised, then realized Renee must have overheard their conversation. She felt sad and embraced Renee

gently, whispering, “It’s okay.”

Renee murmured, “I’m sorry…”

“No need to apologize. It’s not your fault.”

“That ring… It’s an heirloom of the Hamertons, but my mom…”

“Thankfully, it’s been found,” Zuko said with a faint smile. “You shouldn’t carry this guilt. We trust you with Toph.

When he wakes and sees you, it’ll help more than any medicine!”

Yet Renee couldn’t shake off her guilt. “Lina, did they find my mom?”

After a pause, Lina nodded gently.

“Can I come with you to find her?”

“Renee, it might be better if you stay.”

“But she might listen to me!” Renee insisted. “Let me try. She’s not really like this!”

Zuko’s expression grew serious. Lina was uncertain.

At this point, no one could persuade Renee otherwise.

The next day, Renee joined them in the MPV.

The vehicle had seven seats, and everyone was present except for Toph, who was still in the hospital. Two more

cars followed, each filled with Thompson bodyguards.

Based on the information they got, Kaitlyn had left the old city area and was headed to the suburbs.

The suburbs were mostly mountains, with few people living in that direction. Continuing on that path would lead

them out of Centrolis. Interestingly, that area also passed through the forest where Lena had been attacked.

No one spoke in the car. Renee seemed nervous, biting her lip, and her eyes looked like they were about to tear up.

Lina and Zuko sat together while Lena stared at the back of Zuko’s head. Beside her, Chris occasionally glanced at

Lena and cleared his throat loudly.

His efforts finally caught Lena’s attention. She turned and asked, “Feeling sick?”

“Huh?” Chris was surprised. “No.”

Lena replied coldly, “Then be quiet.”

Chris was confused.

Zuko got a call from Ian’s team member, informing him that they had caught up to Kaitlyn and sent him the

location.

As they got closer to their destination, the road became more mountainous, and the conditions worsened.

Zuko moved to the front seat next to the driver, checking the GPS on his phone and giving directions.

Suddenly, Lena pushed Chris aside and quickly sat next to Lina.

Zuko turned around and was shocked. Chris was equally surprised.

“Uh…” Chris finally managed to say after a moment, “You… What are you doing there? That’s Zuko’s seat!”

“But he’s sitting up front now, right?” Lena said casually.

Chris stuttered, “Well, y-yes, he did move to the front, but…”

“We’re almost there, and he definitely won’t move back now!”

Chris widened his eyes. “Uh, Zuko, aren’t you coming back here?”

Zuko struggled to contain his laughter as he shook his head. “Lena’s right. We’re almost there, so I won’t keep

moving back and forth. Besides, I still need to give directions… Take the right turn at the upcoming fork.”

“Zuko Hamerton!”

Chris had no choice but to restrain himself at that moment. However, when he looked up, he unexpectedly caught

Lena gazing at him as though he were an idiot. Then, he overheard her whisper softly, “So ridiculous.”

Zuko couldn’t hold back any longer and chuckled from the front seat.

“Hey…” Chris whispered from the back, “Do you really need to stick so closely to Pammy?”

“Huh?” Lena earnestly clarified, “Why shouldn’t I be close? We’re about to confront Kaitlyn, the person who

attacked me mercilessly! If there’s a conflict, staying near Lina will help me keep her safe!”
