?Chapter 1540:


    Back at the rk residence, Harold set his phone down. Georgie, seated nearby with her arms crossed, immediately blurted out, “Dad, Belinda’s with Lucas right now. What if she told him about what I said to her? If he finds out, will he be mad at me?”


    Harold threw her a pointed look. “Now you’re worried? You didn’t stop to think before barging into that hospital?”


    Georgie’s lips parted, and she hesitated for a moment before saying, “I was just… mad. I didn’t mean to lose it like that.”


    Harold waved a hand. “Alright. Rx. Belinda won’t tell him.”


    Georgie blinked. “How do you know?”


    “I just do.” His voice was final. “I know that girl.” He didn’t borate. Since Harold seemed so sure about that, Georgie felt reassured and let the matter drop.


    Dinner at the Wrights’ came quickly.


    In the evening, Belinda joined the rks as they headed to the Wright family’s residence.


    Neither she nor Lucas believed in showing up empty-handed, so they arrived with their arms full of carefully chosen gifts.


    The Wrights greeted them at the entrance with practiced warmth and cordial smiles. Pleasantries flowed easily, and after a short exchange at the gates, everyone stepped inside.


    Once in the living room, the group sat down to chat casually. Tamara was exchanging a few words with Harold and Norma when her gaze drifted, settling on Lucas and the woman beside him.


    Her breath caught. Belinda?


    Shock shed across her face. Herposure slipped for a beat as she stared at her.


    What on earth was she doing here?

    It took a full ten seconds for Tamara to gather herself. “And who might this youngdy be…”


    “This is my future daughter-inw, Lucas’ girlfriend, Belinda,” Harold dered with a note of pride, introducing Belinda to Tamara.


    Tamara froze, visibly taken aback.


    Her gaze drifted to Belinda, eyes widening as a memory resurfaced… Zaria had once told her that Darwin had shown interest in a woman who happened to be Lucas’s ex-wife and his current girlfriend. Moreover, that woman was also the youngest attending physician at Grand ins General Hospital. And her name was Belinda.


    At the time, Tamara had barely registered the name. When she’d encountered Belinda at the hospital, she had nced at her title without so much as a second thought.


    So, she hadn’t realized Belinda’s identity at all at that time.
