"Lena..." Chris confessed to her, "I-I do indeed know Arya. She's the youngest daughter of the Bayers. Her father is

Josiah Bayer, and her mother is Kelly Tanner. The Bayers and the Hamertons have a longstanding friendship, so...

Zuko, Toph, and I used to play with Arya when we were kids..."

"Oh..." Lena responded indifferently.

He had not gotten to the point yet!

"There's more!" Chris unraveled the story. "Once... I mean, it's in the past!! The Hamertons indeed wanted to ally

with the Bayers, and the intended match was between Arya and me... But listen to me! But that was just the adults'

idea, and it had nothing to do with me!"

"Mm."

Although Lena had not looked up, a faint smile began to spread in the depths of her eyes.

"Lena, I didn't mention her before, not because I didn't want to, but because I..." Chris scratched his head, unsure

how to proceed.

Should he say it was to prevent her from misunderstanding? That did not seem appropriate. Then she would know

he had been plotting to pursue her for a while!

Should he say Arya was not worth mentioning? That also did not seem right, as he just mentioned that he had

grown up playing with her...

Just as Chris sighed, Lena finished her pizza and suddenly stood up.

"Lena..."

"What is it?" She turned her head slightly. "Didn't I tell you what you should call me from now on?"

"Huh?"

She added softly, "Als, you haven't finished your pizza. Don't waste food!"

Chris' mind went blank before he laughed and quickly devoured the entire pizza as if trying to set a record!

Julius stared in amazement. "Hey, kid, be careful not to burn your mouth!"

'Could it be that he's gone silly? Swallowing such scalding pizza!' he wondered. -

Zuko accompanied Lina back to the Thompson residence with bags of gifts during the weekend.

As an excellent son-in-law, he never visited empty-handed. He would give his parents-in-law the stars and the moon

if he could.

Upon seeing him, Nicholas took him straight to the study to play chess while Lina chatted with Linda for a while and

was about to go check on Renee.

Renee came downstairs on her own.

"Lina!"

Renee still smiled warmly upon seeing Lina, and the two of them greeted each other with a big hug, just like they

used to.

Lina handed Renee a gift—an exquisite white purse.

"Do you like it? It's a designer item. Only ten of this style are made. I had someone fly it from overseas for you!"

Renee nodded vigorously.

It was not that she was not moved, and she had resolved to move on from those dark days. It was just that when

night fell, she would see Kaitlyn leaping off the cliff resolutely.

She was the daughter of a criminal, with tainted blood flowing in her veins.

Did she deserve to have this pure white purse?

Seeing her odd expression, Linda quickly patted her shoulder and urged her to go for a walk in the yard with Lina.

Lina held Renee's hand, and they enjoyed a peaceful and beautiful moment in the yard, just like old times.

"Oh right, where's Lenny? I've been here for so long and haven't seen her!"

Renee was just smiling, but her expression instantly changed when she heard Lena's name.

"Why bring her up?"

"I..." Lina had a gift for Lena but did not continue upon seeing Renee's reaction.

Renee pulled away from her grip and returned to the living room alone.

Evelyn was organizing the bags Lina had brought, and Renee spotted a bag containing a delicately wrapped small

box.

She removed it and requested Evelyn and the rest to step out. Carefully, she opened the box. It held a valuable,

finely crafted diamond watch.

As Lina entered the room, she saw what Renee held and took the watch from her.

"Renee, you..."

"Whose gift is this?" Renee looked at her. "Is it for Lena?"
