?Chapter 1587:


    Bethany and Catherine exchanged a nce.


    Moving into Belinda’s ce also meant sharing a roof with Lucas.


    Was Faye’s concern truly for Belinda, or was Lucas the real reason behind her offer? No one had to say it aloud. They all knew the answer.


    “There’s no need for that,” Lucas said sharply. “I’ll take care of Belinda.”


    But Faye wasn’t ready to back down. Her eyes locked onto his with quiet defiance. “Uncle Lucas, I know it’s your responsibility to take care of your girlfriend. But this isn’t about duty for me; it’s about making things right. Belinda got hurt because of me. If I can help her, even just for a few days, maybe I won’t feel so guilty.”


    She then turned to Belinda, her voice softening with appeal. “Belinda, please. If my presence makes you ufortable at hometer, just say the word, and I’ll leave. Just let me move in with you first.” Her tone was pleading.


    Belinda met her gaze, eyes steady, face unreadable.


    Before she could respond, Lucas stepped in again, saying, “This isn’t up for discussion. There’s no need for you to do this.”


    “Uncle Lucas—” Faye scrunched up her face, on the brink of another protest, before Belinda cut her off.


    “Since you’ve extended the offer to provide care for me, very well, I shall ept your proposal,” Belinda said.


    Upon absorbing Belinda’s unexpected deration, the surrounding group regarded her with expressions ofplete bewilderment.


    Not a single person had anticipated that Belinda would actually consent to such an arrangement!


    Everyone knew that Belinda wasn’t particrly fond of Faye, so naturally, they believed she wouldn’t want to live with her.


    Yet, against all expectations, Belinda had agreed.


    Magic begins at g α? ησ ν?? ??s


    Bethany fixed Belinda with an intense re, her eyes radiating incredulous questioning, seemingly to ask, “What are you up to?”


    They had just concluded their earlier discussion identifying Faye as potentially suspicious, explicitly advising Belinda to exercise extreme caution around Faye.


    But now, here Belinda was, agreeing to let Faye stay at her ce.


    Wasn’t this tantamount to extending a personal invitation to danger itself?


    Belinda bestowed upon Bethany a calming smile, silently assuring her that she knew what she was doing.


    Bethanypressed her lips with visible restraint, choosing not to say anything.


    She recognized that Belinda possessed her reasons for reaching such a controversial conclusion.


    Following Belinda’s startling announcement, Lucas squeezed her hand gently.


    Belinda turned her head, meeting his gaze.


    Lucas frowned, clearly puzzled by Belinda’s agreement.
