Married a Secret Billionaire by Breaking Wave

Chapter 1300

Zuko glanced at Chris.

He was really lacking backbone! What on earth did this girl have that made a tough special forces soldier like him

so afraid?

Zuko cleared his throat a couple of times, then copied Chris by bending down to clean the kitchen floor.

Lena did not pay any attention to them. She opened the fridge and took out ribs, abalones, chicken wings, sea

cucumbers, and even an Australian lobster. She then preheated the steamer and the oven and donned an apron.

Zuko asked softly, “Lena, are you cooking?”

Lena’s face remained expressionless as she replied, “Yes.”

“Such a sumptuous dinner?”

Nicholas and Linda were getting older, so they usually had light dinners to avoid putting too much strain on their

bodies. At most, they would have some soup or consume nutritional supplements.

However, the spread Lena was preparing looked like a feast. ‘Perhaps it is intended for Chris?’ he wondered.

The two men exchanged knowing smiles, understanding each other without words.

“Oh, Lina’s been working hard lately, so I’m making something nice for her to replenish her strength,” Lena

explained as she started seasoning the ingredients, preparing to roast some chicken wings.

Chris tentatively asked, “Uh… Are you making this for Pammy?”

Lena turned to give him a faint look, thinking, ‘Who else could it be for if not for my sister?’

“Heh, Lena, this is quite a coincidence.” Chris chuckled. “Zuko just got a call from Pammy. She said she’s working

late and won’t be coming home for dinner tonight.”

“Working late?” Lena furrowed her brows, crossed her arms, and sighed. She then returned the delicacies to the

fridge, leaving Zuko and Chris dumbfounded.

“Uh…”

“Mr. and Mrs. Thompson have already had their soup. So, there won’t be anyone having dinner at home tonight.”

“No, wait…” Chris responded before Zuko. “The two of us don’t count as people?”

“Oh, you two?”

Lena’s clear, big eyes seemed innocent and pure, but Chris felt like she implied, “Oh, you two? Are you two even

considered people?”

Zuko couldn’t help but stifle a laugh, feeling that it was getting awkward to stay there. As such, he decided to head

home.

However, just as he was about to leave the kitchen, Lena called out, “Zuko!”

Zuko felt like he had been caught off guard. “Huh?”

“Zuko, wait a moment,” Lena said with a straight face. “Lina will be working late tonight. If you have nowhere to

eat, you can stay here for dinner! And you…”

She turned to Chris. “If you don’t mind, I can whip up something simple for you guys.”

Zuko’s ears were buzzing. “Wait, what did you just offer?”

“Dinner,” Lena repeated calmly. “You’re Lina’s husband, so you’re basically a Thompson. Since I’m here to take

care of the Thompsons, it’s only natural that I offer to make you dinner.”

Seeing Zuko’s slightly defeated expression, Chris couldn’t hold back any longer.

“Haha, Zuko… so you’re officially a Thompson now? Hahaha!”
