His unwanted wife, the world’s coveted genius

Chapter 1059:

Lucas couldn’t suppress a grin. He pursed his lips, trying to appear serious. “I just want to share a bed with you. Is that too much to ask?”

He raised his hand, flexed his wrist, and put on a pitiful face. “Oh, my wrist hurts.”noveldrama

Belinda felt resigned.

Taking a deep breath, she set the boundaries. “You can sleep here, but no touching.”

Then, realizing she needed to be clearer, she quickly added, “And no kissing!”

“Alright.” Lucas sighed lightly, his face the picture of disappointment.

He then lay down beside Belinda.

They each kept to their side of the bed, closing their eyes.

Exhausted, Belinda quickly drifted off to sleep.

Once he heard her breathing evenly, Lucas allowed a gentle smile to spread across his face. He turned to Belinda and carefully pulled her into his arms.

No touching? That was impossible!

Soon after, Lucas fell asleep, holding Belinda close.

The next day.

When Belinda woke to find herself in Lucas’ arms, she wasn’t shocked. She had anticipated that he might do something like this while she slept.

Lucas was still deeply asleep.

Since it was the weekend and he didn’t need to work, Belinda didn’t wake him. She carefully extracted herself from his embrace, went to the bathroom, freshened up, and headed downstairs.

By the time she finished breakfast, it was already past ten.

She was just about to go upstairs to wake Lucas when the doorbell rang.

She walked to the front door and activated the video intercom.

Belinda’s brows furrowed slightly when she saw the person waiting outside.

What was he doing here? Belinda opened the door.

“Ms. Wright.”

Outside stood a tall, handsome man.

“Mr. Lambert, how did you discover I live here?” Belinda asked, her voice tinged with confusion.

The man standing before her was Darwin.

“I was worried about you and wanted to check on you. I had someone look up your properties and found this address. Sorry, I hope you don’t mind that,” Darwin explained honestly.

“Well…” Belinda felt a touch awkward but, after a moment’s hesitation, she stepped aside. “Come in.”

Since Darwin had made the effort to come here, she felt it would be rude to turn him away.

“Okay.” Darwin nodded with a smile and entered.

After settling on the sofa in the living room, Darwin inquired, “How have you been feeling lately?”

“Much better than before,” Belinda responded.

“That’s good to hear.” Darwin sighed in relief. He was about to say more when he noticed a man descending the stairs.

It was Lucas!

Lucas was dressed in a white robe, the belt loosely tied, giving him a relaxed demeanor.
