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

Chapter 1350:

“Oh, really?” Lucas’ gaze grew even frostier as he stared at Timothy. His voice dropped, sharp and deliberate. “Should I address you as Timothy… or Lamont?”

The mention of his true name hit Timothy like a thunderbolt, freezing him in place.

It took him a long moment to recover, after which he forced a strained smile. “Mr. Clark, you’re joking, aren’t you? My name is Timothy. Lamont was a friend of mine, but he died years ago.”

“Is that right?” Lucas raised an eyebrow, his gaze dripping with mockery as he studied Lamont. “You’ve gotten quite comfortable living as Timothy, haven’t you? When you lie awake at night, do you ever spare a thought for the real Timothy, the man you let burn to death?”

Lucas’ words sent a shiver down Lamont’s spine, cold sweat prickling along his back.

For a moment, his carefully crafted facade nearly cracked.

After a tense pause, he forced an innocent tone. “Mr. Clark, I genuinely don’t know what you mean. I was devastated when Lamont died. But his death had nothing to do with me!”

Lucas’ patience for Lamont’s charade had run dry. He glanced at Gordon with a subtle nod.
