Chapter 310:

Belinda’s fingers paused mid-gesture as she stared at her reflection in the mirror. She shook her head, banishing the thoughts. Enough.

With the divorce looming, dwelling on Lucas’ behavior was pointless.

Quickly finishing her skincare routine, she slipped into bed, shutting out the world and her swirling thoughts.

The next day.

During her lunch break, Belinda’s phone rang. She received a call from Darwin. She glanced at the screen and quickly answered the call.

“Mr. Lambert.”

“Dr. Wright,” Darwin’s rich, steady voice came through, “are you free this evening? Annetta and I would like to take you to dinner to express our gratitude.”

Belinda responded without hesitation, “Dinner isn’t necessary, Mr. Lambert. I was simply doing my job when I saved your aunt.”

Darwin’s tone softened but remained persistent. “It might be you doing your job, but to us, it means the world. Please don’t refuse the dinner invitation.”

Belinda hesitated briefly before saying, “Alright, but I genuinely can’t have dinner with you tonight. I already have plans.”

She wasn’t lying; Harold had asked her to invite her grandmother over for dinner tonight.

“I see. How about tomorrow evening then?” Darwin asked.

“That works. We can have dinner together tomorrow,” Belinda replied.

Darwin chuckled. “Great. I’ll make the reservation and let you know soon.”

“Okay,” Belinda said. “I won’t disturb you any further, Dr. Wright. See you tomorrow.”

With that, Darwin ended the call.

Afterward, Darwin smirked, spinning his phone idly in his hand. Last night, Belinda had surprised him. He had observed her closely during the gathering and seen it all: from Macie deliberately bumping into her and slipping a necklace into her bag, to Belinda returning the necklace to Macie’s pocket.

He had been prepared to step in, ready to expose Macie when the necklace was found in Belinda’s bag. But Belinda had discovered Macie’s scheme too. She hadn’t just handled the situation—she had outmaneuvered Macie entirely and turned the tables. That was truly brilliant.

Darwin believed Belinda wasn’t just clever; she was bold and not someone to be easily messed with. His smirk deepened. Belinda was indeed a fascinating woman.

Meanwhile, Belinda dialed Kenia’s number. After the call connected, she said in a calm voice, “Grandma, Harold has invited you to dinner tonight at the Clark family’s residence. He has been asking to have a meal with you for days. Will you come this time?”

Silence hung on the line before Kenia sighed and replied, “You’re right, Belinda. I’ve refused him twice already. I suppose it’s time I agreed to have a meal with him. Let Harold know I will join him for dinner tonight.”

Kenia’s previous refusals weren’t from pride. With Belinda’s impending divorce from Lucas, she just hadn’t seen the point in maintaining ties with Lucas’ family. But Harold’s persistence had softened her stance.

“Alright, I’ll let him know,” Belinda replied.
