Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 1158

When Lina finished changing clothes, she walked out of the room hand in hand with Zuko. However, before leaving, she couldn't resist looking around.

There stood Linda, motionless in that spot.

Lina observed her thin figure, hunched over like an old lady as if a gust of wind could make her collapse. The anticipation in her eyes had faded, replaced by a sense of emptiness.

An indescribable sadness filled Lina's heart.

Linda and Nicholas were two unfamiliar names to her, but they were the two closest people to her in this world.

Taking a deep breath, Lina lowered her gaze and remained silent. Zuko understood her emotions and gently embraced her, kissing her forehead tenderly.

"Everything will be fine," he whispered. "It's not as difficult as it seems... They love you very much and have been searching for you for 20 years."

"I know." Lina held his hand. Despite the tropical climate of Southeast Aciatic, her palms felt ice-cold.

"Zuko, I... I need time."

"Mm, I understand." He looked at her with tenderness. "I'll always be by your side, helping you adapt as quickly as possible. Uncle Nicholas and Aunt Linda have watched me grow up. For me, they're already family.

"Lina, I've told you before, I won't let you be separated from your family.

"What about me?" He gently caressed her face. "Don't let my family down either, okay?"

Lina bit her lip and looked up at him.

Behind him, the starry sky of Southeast Aciatic glistened, reflecting the resolute light in his eyes, much like the stars themselves.

She smiled faintly and stepped into the dreamy night, their fingers intertwined.

...

That night, the palace was filled with liveliness.

Zuko froze for a moment before suddenly holding her small hand, his eyes filled with affectionate joy.

"So, you two are here!" A voice interrupted their little moment.

Lina hastily pushed Zuko away, her cheeks slightly flushed.

It was Carter who approached, holding a glass of wine in his hand. He looked at Zuko, then at Lina, and smiled approvingly.

"Your medical examination report from when you were injured in Southeast Aciatic is still with me," Carter said with a smile. "Zuko, your grandparents said that young people nowadays match their birth charts when dating, so they matched your DNA... Haha, who would have thought that the result of the match would turn out like this!"

Recalling the incident from her last visit to Southeast Aciatic, Lina wanted to raise her glass in a toast.

If it hadn't been for this kind-hearted man, she wouldn't know how long she would have been entangled with Violet and Gia.

Carter smiled and accepted her gesture, downing the glass of wine. "By the way, Lina, the matter from last time has been investigated and cleared up."
