His unwanted wife, the world’s coveted genius

Chapter 1008:noveldrama

Lucas remained silent, his sharp profile bathed in the dim glow of the streetlights.

After a while, he spoke. “I took samples from you and Holley for a DNA test. The results are in.”

Belinda froze. Her breath hitched. A cold shock ran through her, and she couldn’t help but bite her lip.

Lucas retrieved the DNA test report from his briefcase and extended it toward Belinda. “Here, see for yourself.”

Belinda hesitated briefly before accepting the papers. After about half a minute, she opened the report.

Turning to the last page, she clearly saw the test results.

A wave of relief surged through her chest, making her exhale as though a crushing weight had been lifted. Her heart, which had been gripped by uncertainty, finally found peace.

Holley was her biological mother!

After a brief pause, Lucas broke the silence, his voice calm yet firm. “I took a few strands of your hair while you were sleeping that day. I thought it best to get the confirmation quickly, rather than letting you spiral into endless doubts. I wanted to put your mind at ease.”

Belinda pressed her lips together as her gaze fell to the report once more. Her long, dense lashes veiled her eyes, concealing the swirl of emotions that danced in them.

After a moment, she finally lifted her head, her expression now composed. She met Lucas’ eyes and said politely, “Thank you.”

Lucas parted his lips to respond, but before he could utter a word, Belinda’s hand reached for the car door handle again.

This time, Lucas refrained from stopping her. With a faint sigh, he unlocked the door.

Belinda stepped out of the car without a backward glance, heading straight into her house.

Lucas furrowed his brows deeply as he watched her leave, feeling a mix of frustration and resignation.

At a private estate owned by Baker.

“Dad… I’m finished! I’m ruined!” Kylee wailed as she burst into the living room, her voice laced with desperation.

Baker turned to look at her swiftly, concern etched on his features. “Calm down! What happened? Tell me everything.”

Holley, seated nearby, tensed at Kylee’s hysterics. She asked with concern, “What’s wrong, Kylee?”

Since being ousted from Belinda’s villa, Holley had sought refuge here, too apprehensive to return to Vera Villas.

She feared that if Kenia discovered what she had done to Belinda, she would be scolded.

Through sobs, Kylee said, “Just now… Lucas and Belinda captured me! And then Lucas, he… He jabbed me with a syringe containing blood from an HIV patient!”

Her voice cracked, trembling under the weight of her trauma.

“What?” Baker’s face paled.
