His unwanted wife, the world’s coveted genius

Chapter 1030:

“Furthermore,” he continued with conviction, “I doubt she has the resources required to orchestrate something of this magnitude. To ensure thoroughness in our investigation and leave no stone unturned, I instructed my team to look into the Adams family as well. However, we found no signs of anything amiss there either. Based on our findings so far, it doesn’t seem to be related to Verena or the Adams family.”

Upon hearing Lucas’ words, Belinda found herself engulfed in a whirlwind of confusion. The idea that there might be no connection to Verena or the Adams family was utterly bewildering. She struggled to comprehend the possibility that someone else could be behind everything.

Noticing the distressed expression on Belinda’s face, Lucas tightened his hold on her. He spoke softly, his voice a soothing balm amid her turmoil. “Alright, stop overthinking it. Your only concern right now should be taking care of yourself. Let me handle everything else, okay?”

“You should take care of yourself, too!” Belinda said, turning to face Lucas with a furrowed brow and eyes shimmering with concern. “Make sure Gordon provides you with the medication and that you take it every single day, okay?”noveldrama

Lucas nodded. “Okay.”

Despite his reassurance, Belinda’s worry for him lingered.

Just then, Lucas suddenly turned to her, anticipation gleaming in his eyes. “Belinda, what exactly is our relationship now?”

Belinda blinked, slightly caught off guard by his abrupt question. She tilted her head and countered playfully, “Why don’t you tell me?”

“Isn’t it obvious?” Lucas declared confidently. “We’re a couple! Let’s go get our marriage registered tomorrow.”

The corners of Belinda’s lips twitched in amusement as she shot him a disapproving look. “Who said I was planning to marry you?”

Lucas’ joyful demeanor immediately shifted, and his expression fell, now a mixture of disheartenment and slight anger. “If you don’t marry me, who else do you want to marry? Belinda, listen—you’re never truly going to escape me!”

Belinda burst into laughter at his possessiveness. “So, you’re planning to keep me shackled to you for life? Isn’t that a bit excessive?”

“I don’t care! I just want you by my side,” Lucas replied firmly.

Belinda’s expression turned serious before her tone softened. “It’s really too soon to discuss remarriage. I’m not prepared for that level of commitment right now. Besides, with everything happening, I lack the energy to even think about something like that.”

A profound silence settled between them as Lucas gazed deeply into her eyes, understanding the weight of their past together. He knew he had been a fool and had caused Belinda a great deal of heartache. Even though she had welcomed him back into her life, she still couldn’t bring herself to think about marriage. After all, their prior union had caused her more sorrow than joy, so her hesitation was only natural.

He knew he had no one to blame but himself for this.

But from this moment forward, Lucas vowed to use time, patience, and unwavering love as his tools to gradually warm her heart—to prove that he was genuinely different now and worthy of her trust.

Breaking the silence, Lucas spoke. “Alright, we don’t need to discuss marriage just yet. But… we are now officially in a relationship.”
