His expression turned serious as he said, “Belinda, | need you to answer something honestly.”

Belinda gazed intently at Lucas, her eyes sparkling with curiosity as she blinked slowly. “What do you want to ask

me?”

Lucas said, “The individual you've been keeping in your heart all this time... Who exactly is he?”

Belinda was stunned, caught off guard by this unexpected question.

“Even now, you still refuse to disclose it?” Lucas pressed on, his gaze unwavering as he studied her expression.

He was really curious about that person.

All he wanted was to know—who was the man Belinda had once held affection for?

Belinda flashed a radiant smile, deliberately keeping him in suspense. “I can’t tell you yet! | promise to share

everything aboutand that person once we receive our test results.”

“Why not now?” Lucas frowned slightly, his eagerness for the answer growing palpable.

“No reason,” Belinda said with a teasing lilt in her voice as she rested her head on his shoulder.

“You—" Lucas began to protest when Belinda swiftly interrupted him. “Shh! Be silent. Letlean on you and

doze off for a bit,” she said.

Lucas exhaled a quiet sigh and obediently fell silent.

Before long, he found himself listening to the gentle, rhythmic sound of Belinda’s breathing.

Turning his head slightly, he studied her tranquil face. A surge of warmth washed over him, and he couldn't resist

the impulse to press a light kiss to her forehead.

But even that didn’t seem enough. He edged closer, his lips hovering just above hers.

Just as he was about to bridge the distance, a hand shot up and covered his mouth to stop him.

Belinda lifted her head from his shoulder, her eyes narrowing in suspicion. “What do you think you're doing?

Trying to steal a kiss while I'm asleep?”

Lucas pried her hand away with an air of feigned innocence. “I just wanted to kiss my girlfriend. Is there anything

wrong with that?”

With that, he leaned in once more.

“Stop!” Belinda swiftly covered his mouth again.

“We can’t kiss now,” she said.

“Why?” Lucas looked visibly displeased, disappointment flickering in his eyes.

Belinda shot him a fierce look. “Because | said so! You don’t want to listen toanymore?”

“Alright, | will listen to you,” Lucas quickly replied. Only then did Belinda’s expression soften into a smile as she

reached out to tousle his hair affectionately.

“That's more like it.”

Lucas gazed at her, feeling resigned, letting her tousle his hair.

Meanwhile, Catherine had ventured out for a solitary stroll beneath the warm sun. On her way back to the resort,

she spotted a familiar figure ahead of her.

The man was deeply engrossed in conversation on the phone.

“Mom.” Johnson's deep, resonant voice echoed through the air. “I've decided to go on the blind date you

mentioned. Go ahead and arrange it for me.”
