If Zuko knew he was going to make up such a lie, he would have pretended to be sick these two days. How could he

work so hard!?

“Zeke, come over. Let me have a look!” said Lina.

“What?” Zuko turned back to glare at her. “W-What do you want to look at?”

“If you’re badly injured! We have ointments and stuff at home. I’ll apply them for you if your injuries are bad!”

“No need!” Zuko blurted and put both his hands up in front of him as if Lina was trying to take advantage of him.

“Uh… There’s really no need. I’m thick-skinned and rugged, used to falling and knocking around. There’s no need

for ointment!”

“Zeke Hamerton!” Lina grabbed his T-shirt, ready to yank it up. “Just let me take a look!”

“Don’t come over!”

“Why are you shouting?”

“Are you done? Don’t touch me!”

Zuko glared at Lina, causing her to stand frozen in shock.

“Zeke, I was just trying to be kind…” Lina softly explained.

It would be untrue to say that his reaction didn’t hurt her.

Melissa couldn’t stand to see her daughter being mistreated. She hadn’t overheard their conversation while she

was in the room earlier, but she clearly heard Zuko’s shout.

Was this some kind of joke? Was her precious daughter, who had been the center of yelled at by a man? This son-

in-law of hers needed to learn a lesson!

“Lina, Zeke, what are you two doing?” Melissa rushed out from the kitchen, holding a cleaver.

Zuko felt a cold glint flash before his eyes and quieted down instantly when he saw the cleaver in the woman’s

hand.

“Lina, go back to your room first. Come down to eat later!” Melissa smiled softly at her daughter. Her expression

changed once her daughter left, and she stared at Zuko sternly.

“Zeke, come help me in the kitchen!”

“Ma’am, I—”

“Are you coming or not!?”

When Melissa raised her voice with one hand propped on her hips and the other brandishing the cleaver, her

presence was intimidating.

Zuko followed her meekly and put on an apron after entering the kitchen.

“Here.” Melissa retrieved five onions with a smile. “Cut there!”

While Zuko was still dazed, the cleaver was thrust into his hand.

With Melissa’s loud “Cut them!”, Zuko quickly moved the knife and chopped the onions on the chopping board. Then

he teared up while cutting them.

For the most part, his tears were due to the onions, but a small part was due to his genuine feelings. The Hamerton

heir, who had never served others growing up, was actually there chopping onions for a middle-aged woman!

It was absurd!

“Hmm, Zeke, well done!

“Just got to improve your cutting skills a bit more.

“Yes, cut diagonally. Looks nice and easy to cook like that!

“Zeke, we’re having fish tonight… Uh, go clean the fish up!”

Zuko, who had just battled the onions, froze on the spot.

Lina could not bear it and called for her mother softly by the kitchen door. “Mom, that’s about enough! How can

you order him around like this?”

“Goodness, you’re taking his side? I’m helping you train him!” protested Melissa.

Without even thinking, Lina exclaimed, “He’s my husband. There’s no need for you to train him!”

“Eh?” Melissa was taken aback. “W-What did you say?”
