Chapter 751:

Lucas’ brows furrowed slightly.

“I want to see exactly what she’s planning,” Belinda added, her voice distant.

Lucas paused before nodding. “Alright.”

Belinda raised her eyes to meet his, her expression calm but serious. “Thank you, Lucas,” she said.

She was thanking him not only for his help in uncovering the truth but also for standing by her side through it all.

Lucas replied, “I don’t like hearing those words from you. It makes us distant.”

Belinda’s eyes flickered briefly. “Whether you like it or not isn’t my concern. I'm saying it anyway.”

With that, she straightened her clothes and picked up her bag. “I’m going hnow.”

“I'll drive you,” Lucas said without hesitation.

The drive back to Vera Villas was cloaked in silence.

Belinda stared out the window, her gaze fixed on the passing scenery, though her mind was elsewhere, tangled

in a maze of uneasy thoughts. Lucas, sensing her turmoil, didn't speak, deliberately slowing the car because he

wanted to spend more twith her.

Despite driving slowly, they eventually reached Vera Villas.

The soft click of Belinda unbuckling her seatbelt broke the stillness. As soon as she opened the car door, Lucas

suddenly grabbed her hand to stop her.

Belinda turned, her eyes meeting his.

Lucas gazed at her deeply, his voice low and husky. “You don’t have to face this alone. I'm here for you.”

For a moment, his words stirred something in Belinda’s heart.

But just as quickly, she pushed it aside.

Pulling her hand free, Belinda stepped out of the car without a word. Lucas stayed in the car, watching until she

disappeared into the elevator before driving away.

When Belinda returned home, Holley and Kenia were sitting on the sofa, watching TV.

Their faces lit up when they saw Belinda.

“Belinda, you're back!” Holley greeted, her smile wide and welcoming. Belinda walked over slowly and sat down

beside Holley.

She didn’t speak. Instead, she stared at Holley, her sharp eyes searching, as if hoping to find the truth hidden

somewhere behind Holley’s gaze.

“Why are you looking atlike that?” Holley playfully shot Belinda a glare before breaking into a warm smile.

“Belinda, you seem a bit pale. Did something happen?” Kenia’s voice carried a note of genuine concern, her

brow furrowing slightly.

Belinda pressed her lips together, forcing a faint smile that masked the turmoil within her. “Two victims from a

traffic accident were admitted to the hospital today,” she said, her voice trembling slightly. “It remindedof

my mother’s mishap.”

She then turned to Holley, her tone shifting to one of earnest reflection. “I was just thinking about how great my

mother is.”

Holley was momentarily taken aback by the weight of Belinda’s words but quickly masked it with another bright

smile. “Sweetheart, I'm your mother. Of course, | would protect you the first moment | see you in danger.”
