Back in Centrolis, Toph had been waiting at the entrance of the Thompsons for quite some time. He was about to lose his patience when he suddenly caught sight of a fair and petite figure.

He immediately perked up and quickly got out of the car, blocking the girl’s path.

The girl was caught off guard and visibly startled by him.

Toph was taken aback for a moment, finding her frightened appearance quite cute. She had fair and rosy cheeks, a pair of beautiful, clear eyes, and shoulder-length hair, accentuating her pure and smart vibe.

Her appearance was not stunning but rather pleasing to the eyes. However, her lips appeared slightly pale, giving the impression of poor nutrition.

Toph couldn’t help but show off his social skills. He waved his hand casually, crossed his arms at his waist, and tossed his hair, revealing a mischievous smile. “Hey, Pammy!”

The girl stared at him blankly, instinctively crossing her arms in front of her chest and showing some wariness toward him.

“What’s wrong? Don’t you recognize me?” Toph took a step closer. “It’s me, Toph! Hey, I came to your house with my brother last time. You only remember him and not me?”

Pamela remained silent.

“And I’ve almost been coming to your house every day these past few days! You should be familiar with me, right? It’s just that you seemed to be hiding in your room every time I came…”

Pamela examined him from head to toe, her expression relaxed slightly, but her hands in front of herself were still up.

“I mean…” Toph slowed down his voice. “You shouldn’t be so biased! When you were a child, I played with you more often than my brother did!”

Pamela took two steps back, her big eyes filled with caution.

Toph furrowed his brow. Before coming here today, he had decided to heroically sacrifice… his charm to fulfill the mission his brother had asked of him. Since Zuko was unwilling to have a fake relationship with Pammy, then it would be him!

As long as he could get even a single strand of hair from this girl.

After all this effort, however, the girl was still wary of him and looked at him as if he were crazy!
