Married a Secret Billionaire
Chapter 951

Sometimes, Zuko would go to the beach alone after school. He would sit by the beach staring at the endless ocean, wondering if Pammy was really sleeping in the sea.

He read about The Little Mermaid and imagined a scenario where the king of the ocean found her and transformed her into a mermaid princess.

However, his smile quickly faded, and a fleeting moment of sadness crossed his innocent face.

He had planned to take Pammy to Southeast Aciatic for her birthday. Why did she end up asleep at the bottom of the sea?

Was she cold? Was she scared?

Would she still remember a friend like him?

He looked down, and a clear tear fell on his cheek. It dispersed in the air as the wind blew.

Many years had passed by. The boy who was at the beach was a man now, but he did not change his habit of staring at the ocean.

"It's late, sir. Let's go home."

Zuko was stunned and raised his head to look at Robert. He glanced at the sunset on the ocean unwillingly before getting up slowly to go with him.

He followed behind him. Watching his back, he reminisced how agile and strong Robert was. His straight back was slightly hunched now. Time was cruel. "Uncle Robert, I'm not done watching..." Zuko kicked the tiny rocks while walking. "What's the rush?"

"Your parents are home, and the entire family is waiting for you to go home for dinner." Robert smiled helplessly. "All you want is to play like a little boy!" Zuko shrugged and asked, "Uncle Robert, do you believe in mermaids?"

"What mermaid?"

"The mermaid princess in the fairytale. She saved the prince and became human. She traded her voice with the witch, and-"

"Sir!" Robert frowned. "You're no longer young. You're 26 now. Why would you still have such weird thoughts? Your father was taking charge of the Hamerton Group when he was 26." Zuko made a silly face behind him before he attempted to sneak away. Unfortunately, Robert was sharp and grabbed him in time!

"Stop giving me trouble, sir! Go home now. Your parents are waiting!"

Zuko was helpless. He could only get into the car like a good boy because he did not have the upper hand since bodyguards were around.

...

Toph was playing a game on the couch and signaled Zuko as soon as he got home.

Zephyr and Cordelia looked serious. The entire house seemed to be suppressed by the low pressure.

Zuko loosened his collar and heaved a sigh.

"You're finally home?" Zephyr was the first to speak.

Zuko was dumbstruck. Hadn't his father ordered Robert to drag him home?

"You better explain what this is!" Zephyr slammed the table, and Toph almost dropped the game console in his hands.

Zuko glanced at the iPad on the table, and an entertainment news headline struck his eye.

"A crow wants to be a peacock? The Hamerton Group's first son was seen with an unpopular model in the middle of the night!"

Zuko revealed a smug smirk. "I don't know this woman at all. At Imperial Media's annual meeting last time-"

"You're still denying it?" Zephyr's face sank as he asked in all seriousness, "How many times has this happened this year? You're changing your gossip object every time. Are you trying to be a playboy!?"
