Belinda then turned to Verena with a slight smile.

Panic surged through Verena’s veins. She bit her lip in frustration and said, “Stop dragging this out! Lucas is

With that, she attempted to wheel herself away.

However, as soon as she began to move, her wheelchair cto an abrupt halt.

Belinda, holding the wheelchair in place with a calm smile, said, “There’s no need for you to leave now, Miss

Reed. Mr. Clark is on his way here. Wouldn't you like to hear what he has to say?”

“Quit your charade! Lucas isn’t coming! You're just trying to deceive everyone here!” Verena protested,

struggling to push her wheelchair forward, but Belinda’s firm grip prevented any movement.

“Whether or not I'm deceiving everyone, you'll find out soon enough,” Belinda replied in a calm voice. “But it

seems toyour eagerness to leave might indicate that you feel uneasy about Lucas coming here.”

Verena glared at Belinda, her face contorting with rage.

Belinda didn’t move, her stance firm.

When Lucas appeared, a stunned silence fell over the corridor, and heads turned in mutual astonishment. No one

had anticipated that a mere call from Belinda would bring Lucas here so swiftly. His quick arrival took everyone

by surprise.

Verena's face transformed when she spotted Lucas approaching. As Lucas strode into the Cardiac Surgery

concern. Approaching Belinda, Lucas inquired in a low, urgent tone, “What's going on here?”

Lucas bypassing Verena to speak directly to Belinda sparked murmurs among the onlookers, stirring speculations

about the true nature of the unfolding . It seemed the situation wasn’t what they had imagined.

Belinda wore an expression of surprise, her gaze fixed on Lucas as she spoke with genuine resolve. “There are a

few things, Mr. Clark, that | need to ask you openly in front of everyone.”

“What is it that you want to ask me?” Lucas replied.

Belinda asked, “When you askedto marry you, were you truly single, or did you already have a girlfriend?”

Lucas, piecing together the scenafrom the surrounding tension, responded without hesitation, “I was single at

the time.”

Lucas had ended his relationship with Verena to protect her, and he had been open about it then.

Belinda continued, “During our marriage, wasn't it often Verena who called you late at night?” Lucas paused only

briefly before nodding in affirmation. “Yes.”

The color drained from Verena’s face as she heard Lucas speak so candidly. His words struck her with a deep

sense of humiliation. She had been utterly unprepared for how effortlessly Lucas had revealed everything,

showing no hesitation or concern about how it might tarnish her image in front of others.
