Chapter 386

Chapter 386:
“I’m just curious; why would Belinda push Verena? It doesn’t make sense!”
“Exactly. And why did Belinda specifically call out to Lucas and try to explain things to him? What’s going on?”
Harold’s expression darkened as he watched Lucas leave.
He was clearly displeased.
He looked at the pale Belinda, took a deep breath, and approached her.
Standing before Belinda, he gently patted her head and said softly, “I trust you, my dear.”
Harold’s words caused a stir throughout the banquet hall.
“Did you hear that? What did Harold just call Belinda in front of everyone? Dear?”
“My goodness! Could it be… Is Belinda the mysterious wife of Mr. Clark?”
Ignoring the guests’ whispers, Belinda nodded slightly to Harold. “Thank you, Harold,” she said.
At that moment, Harold turned to the guests and announced directly, “Allow me to introduce my daughter-in-law, Lucas’ wife, Belinda.”
After a brief pause, he continued, “As for why Belinda didn’t attend the banquet today as Lucas’ wife, it’s because she preferred to keep a low profile and did not want her identity revealed. As her elder, I respected her wishes.”
This explanation shed light on why Belinda had been so mysterious.

It wasn’t that the Clark family had been trying to hide her, but rather that Belinda herself had chosen to remain low-key.
Harold surveyed the guests with a stern expression, saying, “Do you really think my daughter-in-law would push someone down the stairs? Is that something she would need to do?”
Prompted by his words, the guests exchanged glances and murmured among themselves.
“Of course not! How could Mr. Clark’s wife be involved in such an act?”
“It is definitely a misunderstanding! Verena must have concocted this story.”
The room buzzed as everyone began to speak at once, all openly criticizing Verena.
While many guests voiced their support for Belinda on the surface, they still harbored doubts inside.
Many believed it was highly likely that Belinda had pushed Verena.
After all, Belinda might harbor deep-seated jealousy towards Verena.
Just from the scene earlier, it was clear to all that Lucas still held his ex-girlfriend, Verena, in high regard.
Yet, no one dared to discuss such observations openly in Harold’s presence.
Later, Harold introduced Belinda to his long-time friends, beaming with pride as he presented his daughter-in-law.
Learning that Belinda had already become an attending physician in the Cardiac Surgery Department at the Grand Plains General Hospital at such a young age, Harold’s friends expressed their astonishment.
They unanimously agreed that the accomplished Belinda was indeed a perfect match for Lucas.
