Lena lowered her head and remained silent, a faint blush creeping onto her face.

Persephone had fallen asleep, so Zephyr and Cordelia invited Nicholas and Linda to hang out elsewhere.

Zuko stretched, preparing to go to his study to deal with some work.

Chris patted his shoulder and gave him a signal with his eyes.

"What's up?"

"I need a favor." Chris grinned. "Let's talk in your study."

"But..." Zuko's gaze turned to Lena.

Lena chuckled. "I'll go chat with Pamym for a bit."

"Something's... not quite right with you two." Zuko immediately noticed the issue. "Chris, is what you're going to talk

to me about the same as what Lena will discuss with my wife?"

"Get over here!" Chris grabbed and dragged him into the study.

Lena knocked on the door.

Lina had just woken up and greeted her with exceptional joy.

"Sis, don't move!" Lena hurriedly pressed her down. "You have a surgical wound!"

"It's healed already!" Lina smiled wryly. "It's been a month. Can't I move a bit?"

"I've had wounds, too," Lena said, looking at her. "Even someone as tough-skinned as me needed a month to

recover. Not to mention you..."

"Lenny, it's different."

"Yeah, it is." Lena smiled bitterly. "A baby was born from your cut, but from mine..."

She did not continue, afraid that talking about the bloody details would frighten Lina. She quickly changed the topic.

"By the way, I came to talk to you about something."

"What is it?"

"Chris. He..." Lena lowered her head, her hands twisting her clothes. "He said he wants to take me to meet his

parents."

Lina's eyes lit up. She was genuinely happy for her. "That's great! Chris is a responsible man. After you marry him,

he will definitely treat you well, and you'll be happy together!"

"But..." Lena still had concerns. "Should I meet them?" Lina was taken aback. "What are you talking about? If you're

going to marry him, it's only right to meet his parents."

Lena remained silent for a long time, struggling with her feelings. Finally, she spoke softly. "I don't deserve him."

Those words hit like a stone. She hung her head, feeling choked up.

Lina's heart ached looking at how crestfallen Lena was, and she hugged her gently. "Silly Lenny, how do you not

deserve him? You're the best to him!"

"No..." Lena was shaking, and her voice was also trembling.

Her father was unknown, her mother was a human trafficker, and she had grown up in a mountain village, enduring

all the hardships of life.

She was willing to spend her life with Chris wholeheartedly but also understood that marriage and love were two

different things. Love did not necessarily lead to marriage, but love could very well not exist within marriage—just

like Elijah and Kasey.

Elijah might have liked someone before, but that woman's background was not as good as Kasey's. In the end, he

obeyed his family's arrangement and chose Kasey.

"In a marriage, love may not be as important as we think." Lena became somewhat pessimistic. "Chris loves me

now, but when he realizes the gap between us, all that love might turn into blame."

She added with a heavy heart, "Sis, I don't want to be blamed by him. I don't want this marriage to end in mutual

hurt."

"Lenny." Lina stroked Lena's face, not knowing how to comfort her.
