Married a Secret Billionaire
Chapter 1232

Linda glanced at Gia and said coldly, "Ms. Chapman, do you really think that using sweet words and sowing discord can fool everyone? You're still young. Use your time in prison to reform yourself. There may

still be opportunities in your life!"

"I think not." Suddenly, a crisp voice came from outside the door.

Lina's eyes lit up.

Abigail had told her that she would appear on the day of "harvest", and now she was there. She still wore her big sunglasses that covered half of her face and walked with an air of confidence. There was, however, another person behind her.

That person looked panicked with trembling legs. As soon as she entered, she knelt in front of everyone.

Linda frowned. "Who is she?"

Abigail walked over to explain unhurriedly, "Mr. and Mrs. Thompson, this is Tina Yoe, a cosmetic doctor known in the entertainment industry, but she has done something even more notorious!" Gia looked at Tina, and both of them turned pale at the sight of each other.

Lina stepped forward to show her examination report to the police officers. "This is the result of the detailed examination. I was injected with a certain drug, which causes pain in my waist."

"What?" Linda was shocked.

"Mom, it's not serious," Lina comforted. "I went to Dr. Yoe back when I removed the birthmark on my waist. Things have cleared up, and she admitted it herself. While removing the birthmark, she injected a foreign-produced drug without any production qualifications or safety assurance!"

Nicholas was furious upon hearing that and almost pulled out his pistol. However, lan held his hand tightly and shook his head at him while shooting glances at the police.

Lina continued. "Mom, dad, don't worry. The drug she injected left some aftereffects, but fortunately, the dosage wasn't significant. With proper care, I can recover." Linda was almost in tears. "Silly child, you were fine with that birthmark. Why remove it?"

"I remember it was a crescent-shaped one on your waist when you were born. It was light and looked rather cute." Nicholas chuckled lightly. "But why did you want to remove it?" Zuko sneered. "You'll have to ask Ms. Chapman about that. Also, Dr. Yoe seems to know quite a lot about these 'matters of the wealthy', right?"

Gia and Tina sucked in cold breaths. Even without them saying anything, everyone could guess that Melvin was the one behind everything.

Removing Lina's birthmark was originally meant to block her way home. However, they did not expect her to meet Zuko. In the end, Zuko still managed to bring Pammy back home.

After the police thoroughly investigated the situation, Tina and Gia were taken away. They found Tobias, who had been beaten up, behind the hotel and took him away as well. All of them would face severe punishment.

Nicholas also gave instructions for those in the prison to take "good" care of these newcomers.

The matter finally came to an end.

Surprisingly, Melissa's condition improved.

Initially, the doctors had determined that her cancer cells had spread too rapidly, and the delayed treatment had made the situation bleak.

However, with Zephyr and Cordelia's notice, Zennie immediately rushed back from a medical seminar in Eropah with Seth.

Melissa's medical records were also sent all the way to Southeast Aciatic, and Carter had been busy studying them with top experts in the field for days. With the combined efforts of modern and holistic medicine, there were signs of the cancer cells in Melissa's body stopping their spread.

Additionally, Lina stayed by her side every day, taking meticulous care of her. Melissa was a cheerful and optimistic person, so her condition naturally improved with her improved mindset.

Zephyr and Cordelia came to the hospital with Zuko to visit Melissa. Just as they reached the door of the ward, Cordelia stopped the men and gestured inside. They saw Lina by Melissa's side, carefully opening a food container. She sterilized the cutlery before gently feeding her mother.

The scene of Lina and Melissa smiling at each other was moving, like a warm and beautiful painting.

Cordelia sighed with a smile. "Lina's such a good child who's grateful and devoted..."

"Of course," Zuko said with a hint of arrogance, "Could my chosen wife be any less?"

"How is it just your choice?" Zephyr frowned. "Back then, your mother and I took you and Toph to the Thompsons to attend Pammy's one-month celebration, and then..."

"Then I held her little hand and got engaged, right?"

"You brat!"

Cordelia smiled, linking arms with Zephyr, and scolded their eldest son, "You have to wait until your father finishes speaking before you can talk!"

"Okay, got it," Zuko sighed.

'Strange...' Zuko and Toph were the darlings of their mother's heart when they were children. How did their father end up the favorite the older they got? 'Ah, women are so fickle!'

Zuko chuckled and was about to knock on the door to enter, but Cordelia stopped him and asked in a low voice, "By the way, has Lina already applied to study abroad in Denmaie?" "Yes," Zuko replied. "But she didn't apply for it. The school invited her, hoping she would further her studies there."

"Is she still planning to study architecture?"

"Yes."

"In that case, won't you two be doing long distance..." Cordelia expressed her concern.

Young couples in love feared nothing more than being apart. Denmaie was in Eropah, not even in the same hemisphere as Centrolis. With such a great distance, anything could happen.

"Mom, don't worry!" Zuko smiled, placing his hands on his mother's shoulders. "Lina and I won't be separated. I've already applied to go with her, so I'll be leaving with her."

"Huh?" Zephyr was surprised. "You're leaving too?"

"The course is only one year." Zuko looked at his father, instantly adopting Toph's sweet coaxing ways. "Dad, you're still strong and vigorous, and the Hamertons can't do without you. But it should be fine without me, right?"

Zephyr pursed his lips. That did sound pretty reasonable. "But what status are you accompanying her with?"

Zuko replied without hesitation, "Her husband, of course!"

"Oh." Zephyr nodded, squinting his eyes. "Your mother and I have no objections about you marrying Pammy. However..."

He raised an eyebrow. "Have you gotten the consent of Uncle Nicholas and Aunt Linda?"
