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!”

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