Chapter 840

The instant Lucas spotted Belinda entering the room, the frosty expression on his face melted away, replaced by an uncommon warmth that seemed to illuminate his features.

When Ryan noticed this transformation, his expression grew even more solemn and contemplative.

It was unmistakable now—Lucas’ feelings for Belinda had grown far beyond mere fondness, blossoming into something deeper and more profound.

As Ryan turned his attention to Belinda, his emotions were a storm of conflict.

Lucas said to Ryan, “If there’s nothing else, you should leave now. Don’t forget to take those things with you.”

Ryan hesitated for a fleeting moment; his expression stiffened slightly before he nodded in compliance.

“Alright then, I’ll take my leave. Please take care of yourself and recover swiftly. I’ll come by another day.”

With that, he turned and walked out of the room.

Naturally, he didn’t forget to carry the things Verena had brought with him as he departed.

When Verena witnessed Ryan leaving the room with the items intended for Lucas in hand, her face drained of color.

She stared at Ryan with disbelief written all over her face, her lips parting as if to say something, but no words came out.

He didn’t give Verena the opportunity to argue, grabbing her wrist with a firm but gentle grip and pulling her to leave.

Verena followed him like a lifeless marionette, her complexion devoid of color and her spirit seemingly drained.

Once they were gone, Gordon, who had been lingering nearby, also departed from the hospital.

Now, only Lucas and Belinda remained in the spacious hospital room.

“Are you feeling tired? Do you want to lie down and rest for a while?” Belinda asked, her voice soft and filled with genuine concern as she observed him closely.

Lucas shook his head.

“I’m fine. I’m not feeling tired.” Belinda settled into the chair beside his hospital bed.

“How did your conversation with Minna go?” Lucas asked, his voice still slightly raspy, a hint of curiosity flickering in his eyes.

Belinda replied, “She said a lot of things to me. However, whenever I pressed for details about where she had been recently or who had been assisting her behind the scenes, she clammed up completely. She insisted she would never disclose anything about that—not even at the cost of her life.”
