Chapter 479



As his words sank in, Verena’s expression stiffened. She stopped crying, quickly composed herself, and glanced toward the door, seeing Lucas on the verge of leaving. His indifferent departure tore at her heart.

Her tears began to flow again, even more intensely this time.

If she lost Lucas, she would lose everything. No, she couldn’t afford to lose him. This couldn’t happen.

With determination, Verena threw off her blankets, left her bed, and wheeled herself toward the Cardiac Surgery Department.

In the Cardiac Surgery Department, Belinda had just exited a patient’s room and was speaking with the family in the corridor.

Suddenly, a piercing voice echoed down the hallway.

“Belinda Wright!”

Everyone paused and turned toward the sound. Belinda’s face showed confusion.

As Verena wheeled closer, Belinda’s brow furrowed. She opened her mouth to say something but was immediately cut off by Verena’s heated outburst.

“Belinda! How can you behave so shamelessly? You’ve kept Lucas and me apart for six years! He’s divorced you and pledged to marry me! Why do you keep interfering in my relationship with him, holding onto him, and sowing doubt in his mind? What’s wrong with you? Do you thrive on stealing other people’s boyfriends?” Overcome with emotion, Verena could no longer contain herself.

The memory of Lucas’ words fueled her desire to confront Belinda directly.

gαℓησν𝒆𝓁s․𝒸оm, your fiction hub As Verena’s accusations echoed down the corridor, time seemed to stand still.

Everyone—doctors, nurses, cleaning staff, patients, and their relatives—stared in disbelief at the unfolding drama.

The revelation hit like a thunderclap.

Belinda’s expression darkened in an instant, her gaze growing cold as she fixed it on Verena. “Have you lost your senses? What nonsense are you spouting?”

Still incensed, Verena retorted, “What? Feeling ashamed now? If you care so much about your image, why engage in such disgraceful behavior in the first place? You and Lucas are divorced, so why can’t you just let go of him? He’s ready to marry me!”

As she spoke, Verena broke down once more, tears welling in her eyes as she begged Belinda, “Ms. Wright, I’m begging you, let Lucas go. Lucas and I have endured so much together! With your divorce from Lucas now finalized, I can finally see a hopeful future for us. Please, stop interfering in my relationship with him!”

Her words, coupled with her beseeching gaze, softened even the hardest of hearts.

When she finally finished speaking, those in the hallway began to view Belinda through a different lens.

“This is such an interesting turn of events. I never expected Dr. Wright to be this kind of person.”
