Sarai, her voice trembling with a mix of shock and fury.
“What did you just say? You want to sleep with Mr. Clark? Are you out of your mind?”
Her chest heaved rapidly, her anger barely contained as she struggled to process the audacity of Sarai’s words.
Sarai, however, remained calm. She lowered her gaze slightly, her tone almost soothing as she replied, “Holley, |
know this is a lot to digest, and that’s fine. I'll give you stto think it over. Let's say... the day after
tomorrow. You can giveyour answer then.”
Without waiting for a response, she rose gracefully and walked back to her room.

perspective might help her navigate this mess.
The following day, Belinda had the day off. After spending the night at the hospital with Kenia, she returned
hin the morning to catch up on sleep. At noon, she met Lucas at Triumph Consortium for lunch, and she
stayed there as Lucas worked in the afternoon.

Belinda, Lucas, and his parents gathered around the table, having dinner. The atmosphere was harmonious.

As they ate, Norma repeatedly filled Belinda’s plate with food, her gestures overflowing with care. With a gentle
smile, she said, “Belinda, Harold and | are overjoyed to hear that you are alright. It's such wonderful news.”
Belinda returned the smile. “Norma, you don’t have to keep putting food on my plate. You can focus on your
meal.”
“Alright, alright,” Norma replied with a nod.
The conversation took a serious turn when Harold suddenly asked Lucas, “Have you figured out who instructed
Diego to tamper with the report?” At the question, Belinda’s hand holding the fork trembled slightly. She pressed
her lips together and turned her gaze toward Lucas, who calmly replied, “I've found sclues.”
“Good,” Harold said with a nod.
Norma was visibly angry. “We can’t let the person behind this get away with it! What they did is outrageous!”

After a brief pause, Harold seemed to recall something. He glanced at Belinda before turning to Lucas. “So, when
do you two plan to remarry?”
Lucas raised an eyebrow, a hint of amusement in his expression as he looked at Belinda. “That's up to her.
Whenever she wants to marry me, I'm ready.”
The moment the words left his mouth, both Harold and Norma shifted their attention to Belinda, their expectant
gazes making her feel the weight of the question. Belinda shot Lucas a quick, exasperated look before smiling at
Harold and Norma. “I haven't really thought about it yet. Things are good as they are; we're enjoying dating for
now. As for remarrying, the moment for that will cnaturally.”
Norma glanced at Lucas, noticing the subtle mix of resignation and disappointment on his face. She found it
oddly amusing. Her son, who rarely showed vulnerability, seemed genuinely concerned about losing Belinda. It
was a side of him she hadn’t seen before.
