Chapter 430

Chapter 430:
She was happy that Belinda was in such a state now.
Deep down, she wished that the rashes on Belinda’s face would never heal, that Belinda would be stuck with a hideous face for the rest of her life.
As for Belinda, she wasn’t sure what to make of Verena’s sudden appearance.
She hadn’t seen Verena since Harold’s birthday banquet.
“What do you want?” she asked sharply.
“Actually, it’s nothing serious. I just heard you fainted during the operation, so I wanted to check on you,” Verena said with a smile.
Belinda’s face remained unchanged, and she said nothing. Noticing Belinda’s silence, Verena asked, “Did you and Lucas get divorced?”
She already knew the answer, but she wanted to hear it directly from Belinda.
Belinda glanced up at her, a faint, mocking smile playing on her lips. “Yes, we did. I suppose I should congratulate you—you’re finally getting what you have always wanted, after waiting so long for Lucas and me to divorce. Your plan worked really well.”
“My plan?” Verena feigned innocence, her expression an artful blend of mock sincerity. “Ms. Wright, I’m not sure I understand your words. What exactly do you mean?”
Belinda’s gaze hardened, her tone sharp.
She said, “You don’t understand me? Really? Verena, it’s just us here. Drop the act, will you? That day at Harold’s birthday party, you purposely threw yourself down the stairs and then had the nerve to accuse me of pushing you. Have you no shame?”
When Verena heard this, her face twisted into a mask of wounded innocence. “Ms. Wright, how could you say such a thing? You indeed pushed me down the stairs! And now, not only do you deny it, but you’re also actually trying to pin it on me?”

Verena had no intention of confessing that she had framed Belinda.
She wasn’t about to make such a foolish mistake! Even with no one else present here, who could say whether Belinda was secretly recording her or not?
Belinda had anticipated this response from Verena.
She just looked at Verena with an indifferent stare and said, “We both know what really happened.”
“I don’t have time for your theatrics. Leave. I need to rest.”
Belinda’s words left no room for argument; she was clearly dismissing Verena.
But Verena stayed right where she was, a smile playing on her lips as she spoke. “If you’re asking whether I’m happy about your divorce with Lucas, then of course I am. But… Your divorce was bound to happen anyway! Lucas only married you because of me. He has never had any feelings for you—not even for a moment. Now that I’m back, he is no longer controlled by Harold. It is only natural for him to divorce you. So now, with you out of the way, the one who has always belonged to me has finally come back to me.”
Her expression remained calm, as if she were simply stating an undeniable fact.
