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

Chapter 697:

That night, sleep brought her back to that incident in the past. She dreamed of the young Lucas. In the dream, he didn’t leave right away after driving those people away; instead, he stayed by her side, asking for her name.

He promised to protect her, to shield her from harm for the rest of her life. “Do you trust me enough to give me your hand?” he asked, his voice warm and full of hope.

She smiled softly and extended her hand toward him. Just as her fingers were about to brush his, Verena appeared out of nowhere. Verena seized Lucas’s hand, pulling him away in an instant.

Belinda ran after them, calling Lucas’s name. But he never turned back, not even once.

When Belinda woke up, her body was drenched in cold sweat, her breaths shallow. The clock read just past five in the morning.

Belinda exhaled deeply, dabbing at the sweat on her forehead with a tissue. She then lay back down, her body exhausted, but no matter how hard she tried, sleep eluded her.
