His unwanted wife, the world’s coveted genius

Chapter 961:

Lucas sat up slowly, stretching his stiff neck and shoulders with a slight wince.

“I was worried you might wake up in the middle of the night and get scared to find yourself alone.”

Belinda lowered her gaze, feeling a rush of warmth at his words as she murmured softly, “Thank you.”

Lucas raised an eyebrow, his expression amused.

“That’s it? Just a ‘thank you’? My shoulders and neck are aching, you know.”

Belinda threw back the covers and got out of bed, casting him a sideways glance.

“Well then… You can get a massage to ease the pain. I will pay for that.”

For a brief moment, Lucas was caught off guard by her suggestion. Then, with a chuckle, he said, “No need for that. How about you treat me to lunch today instead?”

Belinda pouted but eventually relented, saying, “Fine.”noveldrama

Lucas was satisfied with her answer. After dropping Belinda off at the Grand Plains General Hospital, he made his way to his company. He had just gotten inside his office when Gordon entered.

“Mr. Clark, our team has reanalyzed Macie’s blood sample. The results confirm she is indeed HIV-positive,” Gordon said.

Lucas gave a slight nod.

Gordon then set a folder on the desk.

“This contains everything we’ve uncovered on Rhys.”

As Lucas skimmed through the documents, his brows arched slightly. So… this was the reason behind Minna’s hatred for Rhys.

Setting down the file, Lucas looked up at Gordon, his brow furrowed in thought.

“Dig deeper into Macie’s abduction. We need to find the person who abducted her before. And also, increase the speed of our investigation into the person helping Minna in secret.”

“Yes, Mr. Clark,” Gordon replied.

Just then, Lucas retrieved a small bag and handed it to Gordon.

“This contains strands of Belinda’s hair.”

After a pause, Lucas continued, “Obtain a sample from Holley. Then run a paternity test between them.”

Gordon froze. A paternity test?

Was Lucas suspecting that Belinda wasn’t Holley’s biological daughter? Though a storm of questions surged in his mind, Gordon refrained from voicing them. He simply nodded.

“Understood.”
