His unwanted wife, the world’s coveted genius

Chapter 482:

The surrounding crowd exchanged looks, visibly shocked.

They had not anticipated such a revelation. It turned out that Verena had been the one unable to let go of Lucas. Yet, the calmness with which Lucas spoke caught Belinda by surprise.

Taking a moment to gather herself, she asked, “Did you seek a divorce because you believed I pushed Verena down the stairs?”

Lucas met her gaze firmly, his voice calm and clear as he said, “You were the one who asked for the divorce.”noveldrama

This new piece of information shocked everyone present, including Verena. Belinda had been the one to ask for the divorce? How could this be?

Belinda maintained her composure, locking eyes with Lucas as she posed another question. “Have I tried to cling to you since our divorce?”

The audience in the hallway tensed, all eyes on Lucas as they waited for his response. Lucas spoke softly but with undeniable clarity. “I am the one who can’t let go of you.”

Silence enveloped the corridor in an instant. Verena appeared on the verge of collapse, her composure wavering even while seated.

Belinda couldn’t quite describe how she felt at that moment. It was a complex mix of emotions.

After taking a deep breath, she stared intently at Lucas and replied in a serious tone, “Mr. Clark, we are divorced now! Your relationships, whether with Verena or anyone else, are your own affair. Please keep your distance from me and refrain from disturbing my peace!”

Belinda didn’t wait for Lucas to respond. She quickly walked away after delivering her message.

Lucas’ face darkened. Based on the specific questions Belinda had just asked him, he pieced together the misleading narrative that Verena must have shared. He sighed deeply.

It was only after Belinda had disappeared from sight that he turned to Verena, his eyes filled with a complex mix of emotions. When Verena saw him look at her like that, her breathing became shallow, her pulse racing.

Without uttering a word, Lucas positioned himself behind her wheelchair and began to push her away. His expression remained dark, and his presence emanated a cold aura—clear indicators of his sour mood.

After they left, the corridor slowly buzzed back to life.

“What a drama! It’s hard to believe!”

“So, the whole story about Dr. Wright stealing Verena’s boyfriend is entirely unfounded? When Mr. Clark proposed to Dr. Wright, he had already parted ways with Verena!”

“And not just that! Did you hear Dr. Wright mention how Verena would still call Mr. Clark late at night with various excuses, even after Mr. Clark had gotten married? That’s something a homewrecker would do!”
