Married a Secret Billionaire
Chapter 981

Zuko was involved in various activities with the family. He would send and pick up Lina from school, and she would assist at the store.

Melissa would engage in conversations with him, while Jesse would pour him wine whenever he drank. Dave looked up to him and occasionally received fighting lessons from him. Overall, he felt connected with the family.

However, Zuko noticed that Lina had been ignoring him lately. She would not turn her head to acknowledge him when entering the university gate as she used to.

Moreover, she started leaving school later and would quickly walk ahead of him, keeping her head down. At home, she acted as if he didn't exist, and even at the store, she pretended he wasn't there. It was clear that she was deliberately avoiding him.

This confused Zuko. They were fine just two days ago, so why was she pushing him away now? Could it be that all women were fickle-minded?

Being accustomed to women approaching him whenever he was in a social setting, Zuko found it difficult to adjust to someone deliberately ignoring him. The sudden cold shoulder was something he couldn't easily get used to.

He lacked experience in such matters, so he didn't know with whom to discuss this.

To make matters worse, Zuko found that her behavior was starting to affect him. He would become anxious when she ignored him, resulting in mistakes like confusing sugar for salt or wine for vinegar while organizing the store shelves.

Desperate, he turned to an online forum and posted a thread.

[What's the reason for a girl with whom you have been close to suddenly start ignoring you?]

Within half an hour, he received numerous replies.

[What else? She doesn't like you anymore!]

[Did you do something that disgusts her, good-looking boy?]

[Perhaps she has a new prospect, and she's just treating you as a spare tire!]

Zuko frowned and clenched his fists.

'New prospect? Spare tire? Lina, that damned girl!'

He took deep breaths, trying his best to calm down. He replied to the comment saying that Lina had a "new prospect".

[May I know how to find out who her new prospect is?]

The person sent him a private message with a laughing emoji a moment later.

[Bro, I bet you haven't had a girlfriend before? Tell me, what have you done with her so far? Can you go into her room?]

Zuko rolled his eyes and looked upstairs.

Melissa had prohibited him from going into Lina's room. He had been such a good boy that he had never gone near her room.

However, she did not have the habit of locking her door. She would always open the door without having to unlock it.

He bit his lip and replied. [I can get into her room.]

The person replied. [Bro, girls have many secrets in their rooms. Sneak in secretly, and you might find something that might surprise you! That's all I can help you with. Good luck!] Zuko sighed, his eyes turning grim.

Should he really go into her room?

With no one in the house now-Jesse and Melissa at the store, Dave at school, and Lina involved in a university activity-Zuko saw this as the perfect opportunity to enter her room. He forcefully shook his head, fully aware that it was morally wrong. However, he felt an inexplicable force guiding his actions as he found himself standing in front of her door.

Deep in thought, he acknowledged that entering her room without permission was indeed inappropriate. But if he had a valid excuse, maybe he could be forgiven. Quickly, he located a downstairs, and after a moment of contemplation, he began scribbling on it.
