His unwanted wife, the world’s coveted genius

Two hours later, the internet erupted with a breaking scandal.
âShocking! The mysterious wife of Triumph Consortiumâs CEO, Lucas Clark, revealed! She is actually Verena Reed, a violinist from the Sonamia Orchestra!â
The post spread like wildfire across social media platforms, drawing thousands of views and comments in a matter of minutes.
âI always knew Mr. Clark from Triumph Consortium married young, but I never knew who his wife was! Who wouldâve guessed it was Verena, the violinist from Sonamia Orchestra? Sheâs incredible! Iâve seen her perform before; sheâs amazing at playing the violin.â
âWow, Iâm so envious! Being the wife of the CEO of Triumph Consortium is such an enviable position!â
âThey really look like the perfect couple!â
âI donât knowâ¦
I honestly think Verena doesnât quite match Mr. Clark in looks!â
The buzz spread quickly, fueling endless chatter.
Even the doctors in the Cardiac Surgery Department at the Grand Plains General Hospital were caught up in the gossip during their breaks.
âDid you see todayâs trending topic? Mr. Clarkâs wife is actually Verena!â one doctor said, his tone brimming with curiosity.
Another chimed in, lowering their voice conspiratorially, âI heard from the nurses in the Emergency Department that theyâve seen Mr. Clark in Verenaâs hospital room a few times.
At first, people just thought they might be a couple, but nowâ¦
Who would have imagined theyâre really married?â
Belinda stood nearby, her expression cool and composed as she overheard their conversation.
She narrowed her eyes slightly, a sharp, dangerous gleam flashing in her gaze.
Within moments, Belindaâs lips twisted into a sly smirk, her eyes glinting with a hint of sarcasm.
Overhearing the office chatter, Kylee glanced toward Belinda.
She couldnât help but wonder how Belinda would react if she stumbled upon the photos and online comments describing Lucas and Verena as the perfect couple.
Kylee felt a surge of satisfaction.
What did it matter if Belinda was Lucasâ wife? Not many people were aware of that.
Who even recognized Belinda as Lucasâ wife anyway?
Now, the buzz was all about Verena being Lucasâ wife.
No one was aware that Belinda was actually Lucasâ wife.
Just thinking of this made Kylee feel that Belinda was a joke.
Just as Belinda left the office, her phone rang.
She retrieved her phone, eyeing the caller ID with slight confusion.
She quickly answered the call. âGrandma.â
