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.
