Lucas, however, appeared displeased with Belinda’s words as he gave her a cold look.
Did his presence irk her that much? Did she really find him to be a hassle?
Damn it!
Did she dislike him that much?
Dismissively, Belinda said, “If there's nothing else, Miss Reed, Mr. Adams, you two can leave.”

Belinda stared back indifferently at him as though she didn’t care about Verena’s request.
This frustrated Lucas to no end.
Fine! If this were her attitude toward him, then he would act accordingly.
“Of course,” Lucas replied to Verena, setting down the documents and standing up.
A strange emotion flickered too fast in Belinda’s eyes for anyone to see.

She had not been expecting any of this.
After a pause, she quickly regained her composure and nodded, saying, “Yes, quite uncomfortable.”
Without another word, Lucas bent down and scooped Verena up from the wheelchair into his arms.
Then, he carried her out of the room without a backward glance.
When Belinda saw this, her expression remained calm and unreadable, yet within her, her heart was struck with
a fresh wave of pain.
It was as though an unseen hand had emerged from the void, gripping her heart with an unrelenting force.
Ryan turned his head, casting Belinda a sly, self-satisfied grin before briskly pushing the wheelchair to close the
gap with Lucas.
Within seconds, Belinda was left alone in the vast, empty expanse of her hospital room.
