He raised an eyebrow upon seeing Verena. “You’re here. Come and try this.”

Verena walked over and plopped down beside him. She leaned into his embrace and flashed him a coy smile. “Kane, you need to resolve the matter with Kylee for me, okay? That video she has must never see the light of day.”

The man she was cozying up to was none other than Lucas’ older brother, Kane.

Kane wrapped his arm around Verena’s slender waist. “Trust me. I will handle it for you.”

With his free hand, he twirled a lock of her hair around his finger and took a whiff of it. “But you know, Verena… You’ve been disappointing me a lot lately. My dear brother seems to care less and less about you, and that’s not a good sign.”

Verena bit her lip. “Don’t worry; it’s only temporary. Right now, Lucas is just momentarily infatuated with Belinda, mistakenly believing she’s the one he likes. He’s acting foolish, but I’ll make him realize his own heart sooner or later!”

Kane looked at her with amusement in his eyes. “Infatuated? If it were as simple as that, he wouldn’t have given up a prime real estate property worth billions just to clear Belinda’s name.”

Verena’s heart skipped a beat. “What are you talking about?”

“Oh, right, you weren’t made aware of this! You’ve seen that video of Belinda, right?” Kane asked.

“Yes,” Verena replied. The video had spread like wildfire among their social circle, and she had seen it already.

“That video was taken by one of my men,” Kane explained. “I had him take it to Lucas in exchange for the 0106 plot on Icewilde Street in Marshmill. Lucas agreed without a second thought. Who would have thought that my brother could be quite the fool for love?”

Verena was taken aback, her face draining of color as Kane’s words sank in.

Verena was shocked. Lucas had willingly given up a piece of land worth billions just to clear Belinda’s name! How was that even possible?

No… Kane must have been lying to her! Lucas would never be this reckless.

Kane’s expression grew serious. “I’m telling you, Verena, you really need to step up your game. If things keep going this way, you might never get to marry my brother.”

Verena’s brows furrowed. “Do you think I like what’s happening right now? But what can I do? Lucas is completely obsessed with Belinda now! He didn’t even care when I tried to commit suicide. I’m running out of plans here.”

Kane cupped her chin and lifted her face. “Oh, but you can’t just give up, sweetheart. You promised me you would do everything to make sure that my brother marries you. If you fail, I’ll have no choice but to punish you severely.”

He gently caressed her cheek with his fingers as he spoke.

Despite the tender gesture, Verena felt a chill run down her spine. She swallowed hard and nodded. “Don’t worry; I will do my best. I’ll see to it that Lucas marries me!”
