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

Chapter 236:

Belinda averted her gaze first, turning her head and starting to walk toward the bedroom.

“Belinda,” Lucas called her name to stop her, his tone a bit hesitant.

Belinda stopped but didn’t turn around.

Hearing the rustle of Lucas’ chair, she knew he had stood up and walked toward her.

When he stood in front of her, she looked at him, her expression calm but distant. “Mr. Clark,” she said evenly, her voice devoid of warmth, “is there something you need?”

Lucas’ lips parted slightly. “About what happened this afternoon…” he began, his voice low and a little hoarse.

But Belinda interjected before he could finish his sentence. “Don’t worry about it, Mr. Clark. I already told my grandmother about our situation. She won’t mention wanting to have meals with you from now on. And as for the divorce proceedings, we’ll settle it after your father’s birthday, like we agreed before. You can rest assured of that.”
