His unwanted wife, the world’s coveted genius by Derk Blaylock

Kylee hastened toward Lucas, a warm smile brightening her face. “Mr. Clark, are you here to see Belinda? I can take you to her.”

Lucas met her approach with a cool gaze. “Is there something you want to say to me? Just say it.”

That way, she could focus on improving her skills and perhaps return later, more prepared. Relying solely on connections won’t sustain her position at the Grand Plains General Hospital.”
