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

Chapter 801:

Harold stared at him for a long moment before he looked relieved. “So, you’ve finally made up your mind about her.” He sighed, leaning back. “Good. About time.”

After a beat, he added, “Since that’s the case, I won’t push Belinda into any more blind dates or try to pair her with Devin. But…”

“I won’t help you, either. If you want to be with Belinda, you’ll have to rely on your own efforts to win her over!” Harold said.

Lucas nodded, unfazed. “I understand.”

He hadn’t expected Harold to intervene on his behalf anyway. Still, knowing Harold wouldn’t try to push Belinda toward Devin gave him a measure of relief.

The next day, Lucas had planned to go to Belinda’s place that evening to teach her how to swim.

But that afternoon, Bethany called Belinda, inviting her out for dinner. So, when Lucas later called to confirm his plan, Belinda told him not to come to her place tonight.
