Married a Secret Billionaire
Chapter 1534

Zuko felt somewhat surprised after reflecting on the past few months. There had been no news from Elijah for about three or four months, and it turned out he was searching for someone. "Do you know who he's looking for?" Zuko asked.

Toph grinned and replied, "Why? Are you interested?"

"I'm not interested at all!" Zuko responded earnestly.

"So, you want to gossip about it?" Toph teased. "I didn't expect you to enjoy gossiping, too!"

Zuko was about to protest, but Toph beat him to it by handing him a bear headgear.

"You... be a bear!" Toph declared with determination. "Entertain your daughter as a bear, and then I'll gossip about this with you!"

Rolling his eyes, Zuko reluctantly put on the headgear and costume. He then hurried over to Persephone, raising his "paws" and letting out a playful roar.

Upon returning home, Zuko shared the matter with Lina.

"What? He's searching for... an illegitimate daughter?" Lina exclaimed.

"Yes," Zuko confirmed. He removed his suit, massaged his neck, and leaned against the sofa. "According to Toph, it's Elijah's half-sister."

"Elijah actually has a sister?"

"Yeah, I was just as surprised when I heard it. But it's true. While it wasn't a secret in the Chriss family that Elijah's father had an illegitimate child. They had been under the impression it was a son all these years when, in fact, it's a daughter."

Lina frowned. "What's the point of finding this daughter? The company seems stable under Elijah's leadership right now. Isn't he causing unnecessary trouble by searching for someone at this time?" Zuko shrugged, agreeing with Lina's perspective.

Was he planning to divide the family assets with this illegitimate daughter once he found her?

"But I heard from Lenny that Elijah is currently on vacation abroad with his wife and daughter!"

"Hmm?"

Lina continued. "Lenny has been occupied with the charity school project, and she hasn't seen Elijah in a while. He only called her once, mentioning that he wanted to make up for neglecting his wife and daughter and took them abroad for some time."

Zuko found it strange. Elijah appeared to have some hidden motives, and his reason for the search was not straightforward.

"Honey, didn't you go to your parents' place today? Sephy still didn't want to come back with you?"

Zuko hesitated, reluctant to recount his embarrassing ordeal of being coerced into acting as a bear for Lina. After a moment of silence, he lightly said, "My parents have completely spoiled this little girl!" "Ah, mine too." Lina changed into her pajamas and settled on the bed, resting her chin on her knees. She mumbled, "As soon as they see their precious granddaughter, they forget about their daughter..." Zuko went over to embrace her, sharing a common bond of feeling "abandoned" by their parents.

"Ever since Sephy was born, our status in our families has taken a nosedive, hasn't it?"

"Yeah."

"Do you think we should find a way to get some of the attention she receives?"

"Silly!" Lina giggled. "She's our own daughter, and you want to compete with her for attention?"

"Honey, I have a suggestion!" Zuko said.

"What is it?" Lina asked.

Zuko gazed at her intently. Despite being a mother now, Lina had become even more captivating than before. A subtle fragrance seemed to emanate from her, teasing his senses. His large hand began to caress her waist.

He purred in a deep voice. "Honey, how about... we create another little version of ourselves? To compete with her for attention!"
