Lucas inhaled deeply, saying nothing. After a moment, he reluctantly accepted the situation, his face still
clouded with irritation. He slid out of bed, put on his slippers, and strode toward the door.
With a quick twist of the knob, he yanked the door open, his voice sharp with annoyance. “What do you want?”
His tone was biting, his demeanor unmistakably hostile.
Margie stood outside the door, visibly startled by Lucas’ harsh words and stormy expression. She flinched slightly

Belinda was rendered momentarily speechless.
For an instant, Belinda wrestled with how to voice the torrent of emotions churning inside her. It was a complex
tangle.
She slid out of bed, slipped on her shoes, and moved toward the wardrobe, saying, “Con, let's go together.”
