Everyone appeared slightly awkward.

Zuko smiled and spoke with a deep voice while tightly holding Lina’s hand. “Of course, it’s not the same.

“All the younger cousins call me ‘Zuko’, so you should call me the same.” Zuko smirked, “As for ‘Z’, that’s an exclusive title for our Pammy.”

As he said that, he looked at Lina with a touch of tenderness rarely seen on his rugged face.

The younger cousins exchanged smiles but remained silent. Desiree’s expression shifted slightly, and she managed to force out a smile.

The terms of address were only different by three additional letters, but for Zuko, they meant worlds apart. “Z” was only for Pammy and no one else.

Desiree’s eyes flashed with a hint of complexity, and she felt the need to save her image in front of so many people. Half-jokingly, she said, “What Pammy? Hah! Isn’t her name Lina Jenner?”

“Desiree, what’s gotten into you?” Toph looked at her. “Don’t you know? Lina is Pammy! She’s the Pammy whom Uncle Nicholas and Aunt Linda finally found!”

Desiree forced a smile.

How could she not know? Janine had told them this story like it was a legend along the way.

The story was about how destined people would end up together, no matter how they went around, and no one could separate a destined couple. Even God supported Zuko in finding Pammy.

Desiree gripped her glass, and a shadow flickered in her eyes.

At the same time, she noticed that the darkness in Zuko’s eyes seemed even deeper than hers.
