His unwanted wife, the world’s coveted genius

Chapter 670:

“Is there anything else?” Belinda asked, her tone sharp and cool.

Lucas began to extend his hand towards her but then paused, tightening his grip into a fist and retracting his hand.

He fixed her with a pleading look. “Belinda, would you stop dining with other men? Especially Devin!”

Belinda’s frown deepened, her anger evident. “Who I share a meal with, regardless of their gender, is my own concern. It’s not your place to decide.”

Why should he exert control over her decisions?

Did he have the right to do that?

He was free to share drinks and even kisses with Verena, yet she was barred from dining with another man?

That was ridiculous! Who did he think he was?

Just thinking about it made Belinda even more frustrated.

Feeling the sting of Belinda’s blunt rejection, Lucas experienced a sharp ache in his chest.

His sense of helplessness stemmed from the realization that he truly had no right to meddle in her affairs.

The thought of Devin’s fondness for Belinda and her apparent happiness in Devin’s company only deepened his frustration.

“Move your car,” Belinda said coldly, eager to end the conversation.

Lucas remained still.

Impatience colored Belinda’s expression darker. “Will you move it or not?”

Noticing her growing anger, Lucas quickly softened his approach. “Please, don’t be upset. I’m moving it now.” He returned to his car, entered, and drove it aside to clear the path.

Belinda entered her car and drove off.

Lucas didn’t depart until Belinda’s car was out of sight, his mood somber.

He had spent recent days in deep reflection.

Belinda’s words from that day had cut deeply.

Since then, he had been inactive, too apprehensive to even see Belinda, fearing her cold and impatient responses.

However, after some thought, he had made up his mind. Despite the potential annoyance he might cause her, he resolved not to abandon his pursuit.

If it upset her, then so be it. She would eventually adjust to it, he hoped.

With this resolution, Lucas felt a burden lift from his shoulders.

The following day.

Around noon, Mollie summoned Belinda back to the Thomas family home.

“Mollie, what’s the issue?” Belinda inquired as she entered the living room.
