Chapter 72
Chapter 72:
She had been the first to meet Lucas! So why had Lucas chosen Belinda, the unattractive, illegitimate child, over her?
At that moment, she couldn’t help but want to blame Carola for all this. If Carola hadn’t introduced Belinda to the Clark family all those years ago, Belinda would never have had the chance to meet Lucas, much less marry him.
Thinking of this, Kylee made up her mind.
She would find a way to win Lucas over, taking him away from Belinda.
Meanwhile, Belinda was in her office, engrossed in patient files when her phone rang. When she saw the caller ID, a small smile played on her lips. She picked up the phone and said, “Hello…”
Mollie was on the line.
“Belinie, the Adams family reached out to Santino. They want to personally apologize to you. What’s your take?”noveldrama
Belinda wasn’t surprised by the news. Given Santino’s intervention, it was expected that the Adams family would respond. With a thoughtful look, Belinda responded, “Let them come. Since they want to apologize, I will hear it.”
Mollie replied, “Okay, I’ll schedule their visit for noon, so you can meet them during your lunch break.”
“Sounds good,” Belinda replied.
During her break, Belinda drove to the Thomas family estate. Upon her arrival, she found the Adams family already waiting for her there. Matias, Ryan, and even Verena were present in the living room.

Matias immediately rose as Belinda walked in, addressing her respectfully, “Mrs. Clark.”
Belinda acknowledged him with a cool nod, remaining silent.
Belinda settled onto a sofa, and Matias wasted no time in expressing his regrets. “Mrs. Clark, I sincerely apologize. My son’s actions were inappropriate, and I hope you can forgive him just this once.”
He then glanced at Ryan, urging him to speak.
Ryan was frozen, his unblinking gaze fixed on Belinda. Even now, he struggled to grasp that Santino’s goddaughter was, in fact, Belinda.
Matias’ sharp tone snapped Ryan to attention. “Ryan.”
Clearing his throat, Ryan stood up and turned to Belinda. “I apologize, Mrs. Clark. My words that day were thoughtless and inappropriate. Please forgive my disrespect.” His tone was indeed apologetic and sincere. Though he was reluctant to do this, Ryan knew this apology was crucial.
Now, with the protection of the Thomas family and the affection of both Santino and Mollie, Belinda was no longer the vulnerable, overlooked outsider he could target easily.
Hearing Ryan apologize to her, Belinda felt a smirk forming inside her. Indeed, the tables had turned dramatically! Belinda’s continued silence made Matias anxious, prompting him to inquire, “Mrs. Clark, may I ask what would make you consider forgiving my son?”
With a slight smile, Belinda replied smoothly, “There’s no need for forgiveness. I never took Mr. Adams’ words personally.”
