Chapter 574

Chapter 574:
“Tell Quentin to start the transfer process,” Lucas said.
“Mr. Clark!” Gordon exclaimed, his shock evident. “If we transfer the 0106 plot to the Forsaken Group, isn’t that the same as handing it directly to Kane? That land is prime real estate. You’ve put in significant effort and strategy to secure it. If you hand it over to Kane, won’t that just embolden him to target you even further? Additionally, you’re transferring a plot worth billions to them for Ms. Wright. Kane will see that she is your Achilles’ heel! He’ll know that targeting her is an effective way to control you!”
Gordon was deeply worried about that.
Lucas looked at Gordon, a slight smile on his face. “Do you think I haven’t made it clear enough that Belinda is my weak spot?”
Gordon froze, speechless for a moment. Recently, Lucas’ fierce defense of Belinda had led to devastating losses for several companies. His ruthless actions had clearly demonstrated the extent of his care for Belinda.
After a moment, Gordon spoke cautiously. “Mr. Clark, your decisive actions have silenced any open discussion about Ms. Wright’s incident. With time, people will eventually forget about the matter.”
Lucas furrowed his brows. “You say there’s no open discussion, but what about behind closed doors? How can I stand by and let Belinda be subjected to such rumors? All of this started because of me. If it weren’t for my actions, she wouldn’t have had to endure any of this!”
He paused and then added with a hint of sarcasm, “What? Do you think the Triumph Consortium will fall apart without this plot? Or that Kane will surpass me with it? Even if I give him the plot, so what? I’ve defeated him before, and I can do it again. Let’s drop this subject. When have I ever reversed a decision once I’ve made it?”
Lucas’ words carried unwavering confidence and authority.
After reflecting for a moment, Gordon realized that Lucas had a point.
“Understood. I’ll inform Quentin right away.”
Realizing that further discussion was futile, Gordon departed quickly.
Today, Lucas refrained from following Belinda or bringing her lunch, which allowed Belinda to breathe a sigh of relief. It seemed Lucas had taken her previous night’s words seriously. That was good.
After lunch, Belinda left the hospital.
This morning, Kenia had called, requesting the desserts Belinda had brought her last time. Seizing the opportunity during her lunch break, Belinda decided to buy the desserts for Kenia. Otherwise, they might be sold out by the time she finished her shift in the evening.
The shop was not far from the Grand Plains General Hospital, so Belinda opted to walk there.
Just as she was about to cross the street, a hand suddenly shot out and grabbed her forcefully.
Belinda was caught off guard, jumping in surprise. She turned her head.
