His unwanted wife, the world’s coveted genius

Chapter 21:

At the Clark family estate, Belinda had earlier arranged for a chauffeur to drive her to the sprawling mansion. Once the chauffeur parked at the entrance, he soon left.

As soon as Belinda got out of the car, she saw that directly opposite where her car had stopped, there was a blue Bentley Continental.

The car door soon opened.

Lucas stepped out of the Bentley.

Upon spotting Lucas, Belinda quickly averted her eyes and started toward the mansion.

“Stop right there,” came Lucas’s commanding voice.

Belinda paused momentarily but did not turn to face him.

Lucas, with his long strides, quickly walked over to Belinda, examining her with an unreadable look in his eyes.

In a low, enticing tone, he said, “Belinda, remember, until our divorce is finalized, how you act, dress, and speak reflects on the Clark family.”

He stressed the word “dress.”

Belinda turned sharply to confront him, her voice laced with sarcasm. “What exactly is wrong with my attire? Or are you so conventional, Mr. Clark, that a spaghetti strap dress shocks you?”

Her eyes narrowed with contempt as she continued, “Since we’ll soon part ways, I’d prefer it if you kept out of my affairs. We’re better off leading our own lives, okay?”

Without waiting for Lucas’s response, she walked into the mansion.noveldrama

Lucas’s expression tightened as he watched Belinda walk away, his frustration evident.

Belinda had clearly grown far more defiant after three years.

Harold brightened upon seeing Lucas and Belinda back together.

When Norma saw Belinda’s dress, she frowned slightly but eventually said nothing.

Belinda, looking concerned, turned to Harold. “Harold, are you managing your health okay?”

“As long as I keep stress at bay and stay calm, I’m alright,” Harold responded.

A crease formed on Belinda’s forehead.

“Why have you called me here, Dad?” asked Lucas.

With a warm smile, Harold said, “Starting this evening, you both are to move back and stay here at the estate.”

Both Lucas and Belinda exclaimed in shock, “What?”

Belinda and Lucas responded simultaneously in shock, their reactions mirroring each other perfectly.

Lucas gave Belinda a sideways glance, wondering if Harold’s suggestion had anything to do with her.
