“Not yet!” Zuko immediately rejected the idea.

He hadn’t revealed his true identity to Lina yet. What would she think if he brought her home like that?

However, Zuko felt relieved upon hearing his mother’s response. It seemed his parents were not insistent on him marrying Pamela.

Zuko stammered as he explained, “Um, mom, I’ll bring her home when the time is right… She’s a good girl. I guarantee you’ll like her when you meet her!”

“Really?” Zephyr chimed in, joining the conversation. He glanced at Zuko and chuckled. “My son is finally all grown up!”

Zuko was left speechless. “Dad…”

Zephyr placed his hand on Zuko’s shoulder. “Son, we have a marriage agreement with the Thompsons. Although we’re not sure if this Pammy is the real one, Uncle Nicholas and Aunt Linda want the two of you to be together.

“But your mom and I will find an opportunity to talk about it with them. Even if we want the marriage to happen, we must ensure that the girl is their Pammy!”

“Mm-hmm.” Zuko looked at his parents gratefully.

Although what he was about to say sounded cheesy, he hugged them and smiled. “I’m so lucky to be your son.”

“Alright!” Cordelia patted his back. She checked the time and realized it was time to bake.
