Chapter 772

Chapter 772:
Yet, events had unfolded in a way she could never have anticipated. To her shock and dismay, Lucas had shoved her aside and told her to move away.
At that moment, Verena had finally understood something clearly… Lucas had genuinely developed feelings for Belinda. This revelation struck her like a thunderbolt, inflicting unbearable anguish upon her as she struggled to come to terms with it.
With tears brimming in her eyes, Verena turned desperately to Ryan, her voice trembling as she asked, “Ryan… Am I truly going to lose Lucas entirely?”
Ryan remained silent for a moment, but the despondent expression etched on his face spoke volumes. After what felt like an eternity of silence, he finally replied, “I believe that after today, it will be nearly impossible for us to get close to Lucas.”
Upon hearing that, Verena bit down on her lip, and her narrowed gaze reflected a newfound determination within her. It seemed she had no alternative but to take that step! She couldn’t afford to lose Lucas—not now or ever!
Meanwhile, at the hot spring…
The men and women were soaking in separate areas of the spring, leaving only Belinda, Bethany, and Catherine occupying this particular pool together.
“Belinda, are you sure you are okay?” Soaking in the warm water, Bethany couldn’t help but feel concerned about Belinda.
Belinda shook her head lightly. “Don’t worry; I’m perfectly fine.”
After a brief pause filled with contemplation, she said resolutely, “I’ve made my decision. I’m going to enroll in swimming lessons! I will learn how to swim!”
“Swimming lessons?” Bethany exclaimed in surprise.
Belinda’s expression was unwavering. “Yes! I need to conquer this vulnerability once and for all. Besides… The feeling of drowning—I’m completely finished with it! I never want to experience that again!”

Bethany nodded fervently in support. “Wonderful! It’s fantastic that you think this way. I fully support you!”
Catherine spoke enthusiastically as well. “I support you too, Belinda!”
Belinda just smiled at their encouragement.
“But Lucas’ actions earlier were truly remarkable! He deserves recognition for that!” Bethany said brightly, satisfaction lighting up her face.
Catherine smiled and nodded in agreement. “Absolutely! I’ve never witnessed Lucas so worried about anyone before!”
Belinda remained silent at their remarks; however, deep down, her heart was not entirely at ease.
In that pivotal moment when it had truly mattered, Lucas had chosen her without hesitation.
It was impossible for her heart not to flutter a little at the thought.
Suddenly recalling something amusing, Bethany continued with a chuckle, “After Lucas pushed Verena away, the expression on Verena’s face was absolutely hilarious! I really should have taken a picture of her at that time!”
Turning toward Belinda with playful mischief in her eyes, Bethany raised an eyebrow and said, “But seriously, Belinda, don’t you have any comment to make about it?”
Belinda’s eyes flickered for a moment, and she pressed her lips together. Then, she said, “I will thank him and then treat him to a meal.”
“Oh, you,” Bethany said with a tone of mild resignation.
