Chapter 641



“…do something for you to make up for this. It’s the least I could do. Please, give me the chance to make things right.”

Belinda replied, “Alright, if I need your help, I won’t hold back.”

Darwin’s lips curved into a faint smile. He found himself liking Belinda more now. If she had brushed him off or rejected his offer, he would have been disappointed in her.

After a brief pause, he said, “I won’t let Minna off easily this time. She…”

Belinda quickly interjected, “No, no, no, Mr. Lambert. Please don’t get involved. If you do, it will only complicate things further. If you interfere, it will only make Minna more unstable. She might do something even more extreme. I appreciate your good intentions, but I can handle this matter myself.”

Darwin sighed, realizing the truth in her words. “You’re right. I didn’t think it through. I’m sorry.”

Belinda’s lips curved into a small smile. “Your intentions were good,” she said.

Darwin opened his mouth to respond, but before he could speak, the door to the private room suddenly flew open.

Both Belinda and Darwin turned toward the door. Minna stormed into the room, her bloodshot eyes blazing with unrestrained fury. Her eyes were swollen.

The moment her gaze landed on Belinda sitting beside Darwin, her rage ignited like a flame. Her stare was searing, filled with raw hatred, as though she wanted to tear Belinda apart with her bare hands.

Darwin’s expression turned cold in an instant when he saw Minna.

“What are you doing here?” he demanded.

Darwin’s brows furrowed with impatience the moment he laid eyes on Minna. He made no effort to hide his disgust, leaving her heartbroken.

Minna walked over and glared at Belinda. “You should leave now!”

Belinda remained seated, completely unfazed by Minna’s outburst.

“She is my guest,” Darwin said firmly. “What makes you think you have the right to boss people around? If anyone should leave, it’s you!”

Minna bit her lip, her eyes already welling up. “Darwin,” she said in a pleading tone, “can’t you be a little nicer to—”

“Say what you need to say,” Darwin interrupted coldly. “If you have nothing else to say, you should get out.” His disdain for Minna had only grown after he had learned of her evil intentions toward Belinda.

Minna looked back and forth between Darwin and Belinda. After a moment of silence, she decided to bite the bullet. She looked at Darwin with pleading eyes and said, “Darwin, could you… Could you please marry me?”

Belinda couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow when she heard that. Of all the outrageous things Minna could have said, she had never expected this.

She had to give it to Minna; she was audacious. Darwin’s face immediately turned cold. He let out a derisive snort and said, “In your dreams.” His tone was dripping with mockery.
