Chapter 938

Chapter 938:
“Devin, take her home. I will be worried if she goes back on her own.”
“I don’t wish to impose on Devin. I—” Belinda began to protest. Before she could finish her sentence, the butler suddenly entered the dining area with an air of urgency.
“Mr. Clark has arrived.”
As he announced this, a tall and commanding figure strode into the room.
Lucas’ sharp gaze immediately found Belinda before shifting briefly to Nigel and Devin.
“Nigel, Devin,” Lucas greeted them with a slight nod, his voice steady.
“Lucas, you’re here. Have you eaten? Join us for something,” Nigel’s face brightened with a welcoming smile.
“Thank you, Nigel, but I’ve already had dinner. I came here to pick up Belinda,” Lucas said politely.
Then he turned to Belinda, his voice softening unconsciously, “Are you done eating?”
Belinda nodded and rose gracefully from her seat. Before departing, she turned to Nigel and Devin, offering a courteous farewell.
“Thank you for your hospitality this evening.”
Given the circumstances, Nigel had no choice but to nod in acknowledgment.
“Alright then, go home safely.”
Together, Belinda and Lucas exited the estate, walking side by side into the cool evening air.

As he watched them leave, Devin felt a profound ache deep in his chest, as though invisible knives were slowly carving into his heart. Observing his grandson’s pain, Nigel sighed internally, a weight of helplessness settling upon him.
Belinda’s stance was clear. What would happen next was entirely in his grandson’s hands now. Would he persist or finally let go?
During the drive back, Lucas inquired after a moment of silence, “What was Nigel’s true motive for inviting you for dinner?”
“They expressed apologies on Carmelita’s behalf regarding the previous incident,” Belinda replied calmly.
Lucas remained skeptical, his brows furrowing slightly as he processed her words.
“Is that all?”
“What else would there possibly be?” Belinda replied.
Lucas’ eyebrows knitted together in thought. It was hard for him to believe that Nigel hadn’t mentioned the matter of Devin at all during dinner. Yet, since Belinda clearly wished to avoid discussing it, he chose not to press her any further.
Just then, their phones rang simultaneously with incoming notifications.
Belinda checked hers first; the message was from Johnson, inviting her to the Dream Club.
