Rowan found it strange. He had asked several questions on the phone, and his wife punched him in the end.

“You’re such a fool!” Xyla was furious. “Zuko must have his reasons for requesting that! Just do as he says. Why do you have so many questions?”

“But… It’s highly unusual for him!”

“What’s so unusual about it? He wouldn’t harm you!” Xyla rolled her eyes and took the phone from him. “Zuko! Hehe, don’t worry. I’ll do it. I’ll turn it off for you right now!”

“Okay, thanks, grandma!”

“So… there won’t be any bodyguards around either?” Xyla inquired.

“You’re psychic, grandma!” Zuko replied.

Xyla smiled and turned to instruct the butler. “Send this message. Nobody is allowed in the backyard tonight. Nobody disturbs Zuko!”

Zuko happily ended the call. Just as he was about to change, Toph called.

“Bro!”

Zuko paused, his brow furrowing. “Where are you? Why is it so noisy over there?”

“I’m in Jangasas,” Toph replied.

“What?” Zuko was shocked. “You’re here too? What about our parents? Why did you come?”

Usually, it was Toph who had many questions, but now Zuko was the one questioning him.

Toph, on the other end of the line, seemed uneasy. He didn’t tease him and coughed twice before speaking in a lowered voice. “Bro, there’s something… I must tell you. I came with Pammy.”

Zuko widened his eyes but said nothing.
