Chapter 566
Chapter 566:
Her jaw tightened. “Lucas, listen to yourself. You are being so unreasonable!”
Lucas couldn’t help but raise his voice. “I can’t be reasonable when I am about to lose my wife!”
Belinda gave him a cold look. “You already lost your wife.”
Lucas froze, his breath catching in his throat.
Belinda stood up. “Let’s leave it at that,” she stated.
Without awaiting a response from Lucas, she turned and walked away.
Lucas watched her departing figure and then looked at his injured hand, his brow furrowing.
He made a silent vow that one day, he would make Belinda see his resolve and change.
His expression became determined.
The following day, in a secluded corner of a café,
Holley sat nervously.
She looked up at Lucas, who was seated across from her, his expression enigmatic, and asked, “Mr. Clark, I’m unsure why you wanted to meet me today. Is there something you need?”
She had been sitting there for ten minutes.

Lucas maintained his silence, his face expressionless.
Yet, Holley could feel the pressure radiating from him.
Finally, Lucas spoke in a low, husky voice. “The incident about Belinda—you were the one who disclosed it. Do you understand the harm it has caused her?”
His tone remained even, devoid of emotion.noveldrama
Holley hurried to say, “I know, I was wrong. I deeply regret it. But I swear, it wasn’t deliberate. My concern for Belinda led me to—”
Lucas cut her off, raising his hand. “Your reasons don’t matter. What matters is you have hurt Belinda.”
He paused, his brow furrowing. “But you’re her mother. Despite your actions, I can’t do anything to harm you.”
Still, I can’t just let this slide.”
Lucas picked up the coffee cup in front of him, swirling the dark liquid idly, not intending to drink it.
Holley’s breath hitched as she grasped the severity of her situation.
In a rush of panic, she implored, “Mr. Clark, I truly realize my mistake now! It won’t happen again. Please, forgive me just this once!”
Lucas gave her a frosty look, his gaze steady. “You’re Belinda’s mother, and she holds you in high regard, so I won’t do anything to you. But let me be clear—if you hurt Belinda again, I won’t be this lenient next time. Do you understand?”
His words carried a palpable threat.
