"Mr. Hamertons, s-stop fighting!

"No^ Don't... don't hit me...

"I promise both of you will have a set of lipsticks today. No one will leave empty-handed!" -

Later, Toph and Chris walked out of DL Mall, satisfied and carrying shopping bags. They found a food truck by the

roadside, ordered a table full of snacks and two packs of beer, and indulged themselves thoroughly.

The next day, Toph confidently arrived at the Thompson residence with the cosmetics in hand. Coincidentally,

Renee opened the door and could not help the delight when she saw what he was holding.

"What do you think?" Toph flicked his hair and smirked. "Do you like it?"

Renee nodded and stepped forward to hug him after a moment, tears trickling down her face.

"Hey, don't cry!" Toph was taken aback. "I bought this for you hoping to make you happy, not to make you sad."

Renee smiled through her tears. She was not sad—she was just too touched, to the point she felt it was all unreal.

Toph smiled and took out the lipstick, carefully applying it to her lips. The color was beautiful, complementing her

complexion and no longer leaving her looking pale.

Renee looked in the mirror, and a smile returned to her face. Even she liked how she looked at this moment.

"Look, this set of lipsticks has 30 different colors." Toph proudly showcased. "I don't know the difference between all

these shades of red, but you can wear a different one every day and be in a good mood every day!"

"Thank you, Toph." Renee looked at him with mixed emotions, then softly said after a while, "Previously... at the

banquet, I shouldn't have said those things to you. It's just that I was being too stubborn. I'm sorry."

"Silly." Toph embraced her. "I know why you did that. It's because I made you feel insecure, right?"

He looked into her eyes and said seriously, "Renee, I don't want to marry anyone else besides you. Our wedding

date has just been postponed. My parents haven't said anything about canceling the engagement. Just be at ease.

I'll also keep an eye on myself more in the future and make sure I don't get too close to other girls, alright?"

"Okay."

Renee cuddled him, listening to the rhythm of his heartbeat and finding a moment of peace.

However, that unease in her heart still lingered.

Based on what she knew about Toph, he was a straightforward guy. She was the one who had apologized first, and

given his character, he probably considered that matter settled. He would not overthink it, let alone buy lipsticks to

surprise her. He was someone who moved forward and focused on the present.

Unless someone had advised him to do so.

An uncomfortable feeling rose within Renee. After Toph left, she called Wendy.

Wendy was a great contributor to raising the Hamerton brothers. Apart from Cordelia and Zephyr, Zuko and Toph

relied on Wendy the most. Wendy was kind-hearted, respectful, and caring toward both Lina and Renee, so they

often kept in touch with her.

When Wendy picked up the phone, Renee hesitated before saying, "Aunt Wendy, it's me."

"Ms. Renee!" Wendy was busy in the garden. "What's the matter?"

"Nothing." Renee smiled. "I just haven't heard your voice for a long time, and I've been missing you."

The kind old woman was overjoyed. It had been a while since she had heard Renee talk like this.

"Ms. Renee, I've missed you too! You haven't come over to hang out with Mr. Toph for a long time now. When are

you coming? I'll make some delicious food for you two!"

Renee said. "Aunt Wendy... I want to ask you something."

"Go ahead!"

"Has Toph... seen anyone recently?"

Wendy fell silent for a moment, trying to recall. "Mr. Toph has been staying at home more often, so he hasn't seen

anyone. Ms. Renee, why are you asking this?"

"Oh, it's nothing." Renee felt a little flustered. "It's just... It's just that he said he'd get me a litter of kittens before,

but there's been no action. Heh, I thought he gave them to someone else!"

"Oh, is that what this is about?" Wendy laughed. "Mr. Toph gave them back to Ms. Bayer. He thought you didn't want

them anymore!"

"Ms. Bayer?" Renee's heart lurched. "So... the two of them met recently?"
