Chapter 356:

After changing into her swimsuit, Belinda wrapped herself tightly in a towel and descended the stairs at a reluctant pace. The backyard pool gleamed in the sunlight, and Lucas was already there.

Lucas moved effortlessly through the water, completing a few laps before emerging from the pool. The sunlight cast a golden glow over him, accentuating his tanned skin, defined chest, and firm muscles.

Belinda didn’t move. Lucas arched a brow, his tone laced with teasing impatience. “Do you need me to go there and invite you personally?”
