Chapter 880
His unwanted wife, the world’s coveted genius
Kylee bristled, struggling for a comeback.
âIâve always told her to stay away, but she wonât listen! Just the other day, I even called and cursed her out! And instead of backing off, she had the audacity to lecture me! Unbelievable! Anyway, Iâve said my piece. Just tell her sheâs not welcome at my house!â
With that, Kylee spun around and stormed off.
Belinda watched her leave and then let out a mocking chuckle. Shaking her head slightly, she turned and stepped into Lucasâ hospital room.
The moment she entered, Lucas spoke.
âBaker and Kylee were just here.â
Belinda nodded.
âI know. I ran into Kylee at the door. And she told me something rather interesting.â
Lucas raised an eyebrow.
âWhat is it?â
Belinda shared with Lucas the information Kylee had recently confided in her, her voice tinged with contemplation.
Lucas couldnât help but let out a chuckle, shaking his head slightly.
âSo she intentionally took the time to relay all of this to you? Doesnât that strike you as a bit too calculated?â
Belinda lowered her gaze.
âEspecially since she made a point to emphasize that she called my mother that day solely to reprimand her, almost as if she wanted to tell me that my mother wasnât fabricating anything.â
After a brief pause, she added, âOf course, thereâs also the possibility that she was being sincereâthat it genuinely happened.â
Lucas studied her intently, searching for the truth in her eyes.
âThe real question is⦠What do you believe?â
Belinda fell silent, lost in a whirlwind of conflicting emotions. For a moment, she didnât know how to answer that.
Lucas recognized that at this juncture, Belindaâs trust in Holley had been severely shaken. Her internal struggle was evident; she was caught between the desire to trust once more and the fear of being deceived again.
However, Belinda didnât have much time to dwell on these thoughts before Kenia and the others arrived. Earlier that morning, Kenia had already asked Belinda for Lucasâ hospital room number.
âMr. Clark,â Kenia began earnestly, âI truly must express my heartfelt gratitude. Thank you for saving Belinda.â She was seated beside the bed, looking at Lucas.
Lucas offered a warm smile.
âKenia, I did what I should do. I couldnât just stand by.â
