Belinda’s eyes were filled with unshed tears. “I'll be back in twenty-eight days,” she said after clearing her

throat. “Honestly, though... | hope I don’t see any of you here when | return!”

Everyone understood what Belinda meant by that. They all smiled.

By the tBelinda was exiting the elevator to the underground parking lot, she had composed herself.

The drive back hwas silent; neither Belinda nor Lucas spoke.

The car stopped at Belinda’s place, and Belinda turned to Lucas. “Thank you. You should go back to work.”

There was a brief pause. Then, she added, “You don’t need to cby anymore. I'm fine, really.”

Lucas turned to stare at her, his brows furrowing. “What do you mean? Are you trying to avoidagain,

Belinda?” He sounded a bit angry.

Belinda quickly averted her eyes. “It’s not like that at all,” she said softly. “I’m not avoiding you.”

“Look at me!” Without warning, Lucas grabbed her by the shoulders and forced her to meet his gaze. “Listen to

me, Belinda. Regardless of the results, whether you're infected or not, | will always be by your side. | want you,

only you!”

His tone intensified. “Do you understand?”

When Belinda heard Lucas’ words, her heart skipped a beat, resonating with an unexpected intensity that

lingered for a long while.

Her mood grew increasingly heavy.

After taking a deep breath, she declared, “Lucas, we're divorced! I'm no longer your wife.”

“So what?” Lucas replied, undeterred.

His gaze was intense yet tender as he looked at her. “Belinda, you know what | mean.”

Belinda averted her gaze, her eyes briefly closing as her voice quivered.

“I'm tired. I'm going back now. You should go to work.”

Without waiting for his response, she swiftly opened the car door and stepped out, heading straight back to her

house.

As soon as she closed the door behind her, her strength seemed to drain away, and she slowly collapsed to the

floor. She couldn’t accept Lucas’ feelings for her because she feared the potential diagnosis looming in twenty-

eight days. She couldn't allow herself to drag Lucas down with her.

At noon, Santino, Mollie, and Danen arrived at Belinda’s place.

Belinda had told them about the situation.

She had promised them that if anything significant occurred, she would be open with them and keep nothing

hidden.

So this time, she had taken the initiative to tell them. Mollie insisted on staying to care for Belinda. After much

persuasion, Belinda managed to convince her not to stay. Still, Mollie arranged for a maid to help Belinda with

her meals and daily needs. Belinda accepted the help without protest.
