His unwanted wife, the world’s coveted genius

Chapter 463:

I knew you and Belinda might get a divorce after Harold’s birthday, so I deliberately told you I was going to confess my feelings to Belinda to provoke you.

I didn’t expect you to overhear my conversation with Belinda and misunderstand the situation.”

“Of all the ways you could have handled this, you pretended to be in love with Belinda? That’s just asking for trouble!” Vincent said, glaring daggers at Johnson.

“Jealousy is a proven method to get someone to realize how they truly feel.

I didn’t anticipate it wouldn’t work on Lucas,” Johnson replied with a resigned shrug.

He then turned to Lucas and continued, “But I do think you need to face your feelings honestly.

Ask yourself this—do you really not have any feelings for Belinda?”

Lucas believed he should have been able to say he felt nothing for Belinda.

However, he couldn’t bring himself to utter a single word.

It was as if something were stuck in his throat.

“You and Verena broke up years ago.

You know better than anyone whether you still feel anything for Verena.

Life is short, Lucas.

Do you really want to spend it with someone you don’t love while the woman you love gets married to someone else?” Johnson said.

Lucas grew thoughtful upon hearing Johnson’s words.

The mere thought of that possibility made him feel very uncomfortable.

At that moment, Vincent chimed in, “Lucas, it’s obvious to both Johnson and me that you have feelings for Belinda.

You are simply too stubborn to admit it.noveldrama

Well… we are definitely closer to Verena, and honestly, we’ve been hoping that you two will end up together.

But as your best friends, all we really want is for you to be truly happy.

So, don’t make a choice you’ll regret forever.”

Vincent’s words came from the heart, and he meant every single one.

Upon hearing Vincent’s words, Lucas fell silent.

Though his face remained unreadable, both Johnson and Vincent could tell that Lucas had taken in their words.

There was a delicate balance between saying just enough and saying too much, and they believed they had said all they needed to say.

Vincent then smoothly shifted the topic.

The following day.
