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

Chapter 573

Chapter 573:

Johnson continued, “Belinda gave her all to you, but you and Verena crushed her heart. Back then, her heart was

already deeply wounded by the two of you—a wound that has never truly healed.”

He let out a cold chuckle. “And then, you kept choosing Verena over Belinda, each tlike another dagger to

her heart. How do you expect her to move past that? How could she possibly accept you again?”

Lucas’ face went ashen. He stared down at his drink, motionless.

It was only now that he fully grasped the depth of the pain he had inflicted on Belinda. He had been utterly blind

to it all before. He hadn't cared about it at all. Reflecting on this, Lucas clenched his eyes shut, overwhelmed

with regret.

At that moment, he longed to turn back time. If only he could, he would value Belinda properly and shield her

from any harm.

“I remember it now! But didn’t Lucas insist that Verena eat the cake instead of discarding it?” Vincent said.

Johnson scoffed. “What does it matter? Belinda’s heartfelt effort was still trampled by Verena.”

Vincent fell silent.

Johnson placed a reassuring hand on Lucas’ shoulder. “Give Belinda sspace and time. Pressuring her will

only drive her further away from you. My advice? Lay low for a while. Stop sending her meals or meddling in her

affairs. If you're concerned for her safety, send people to protect her in secret.”

“I think that’s sensible,” Vincent remarked.

After a lengthy pause, Lucas spoke in a raspy voice. “Alright, I'll take your advice.”

“Good,” Johnson replied, lifting his glass.

Lucas and Vincent did the same, and the three clinked their glasses together.

The next day, in the CEO's office of Triumph Consortium, Lucas sat at his desk, massaging his temples. He was

suffering from a hangover, his head aching.

Just then, Gordon walked in, his expression serious. “Mr. Clark, we've made a discovery. Quentin has been

secretly in touch with your elder brother. There are also significant connections between the Forsaken Group and

your brother.”

“It appears your brother Kane is the one supporting Quentin in secret.”

When Lucas heard this, his expression darkened.

Kane...

So it was him!

What a clever maneuver on his part!

Just then, Gordon spoke up. “Mr. Clark, now that we know Kane is behind the Forsaken Group, what should we do

about the 0106 plot?”

“Are the documents ready?” Lucas asked.

“Yes,” Gordon replied.
