His unwanted wife, the world’s coveted genius

Chapter 643:

She turned and slowly walked away.

But she hadn’t even taken three steps when she heard Darwin speak to Belinda.noveldrama

“I’m really sorry for this, Belinda. I didn’t mean for you to witness such a scene.”

His tone was gentle—completely different from how he had spoken to Minna earlier.

At that moment, Minna couldn’t bear it anymore. She scanned the room, her eyes landing on a decorative vase sitting on a nearby shelf.

Without wasting another second, she marched over, grabbed the vase, and hurled it in Belinda’s direction. The vase flew through the air with alarming speed, aimed directly at Belinda’s face.

It all happened so quickly that by the time Belinda realized the impending danger, it was too late for her to react. She sat frozen in place.

In that critical moment, Darwin lunged forward and pulled Belinda into his arms.

He used his back to shield her from the vase. The sharp sound of breaking porcelain echoed, followed by Darwin’s groan of pain.

Belinda gasped, staring at Darwin in shock.

“Darwin!” Minna cried out in panic.

Minna’s voice finally pulled Belinda back to her senses, and she hurriedly reached up to support the slouching Darwin. “Are you okay?”

She had never imagined that Minna would do something so reckless in public, nor had she expected Darwin to use his own body to shield her from the potentially fatal blow. Darwin’s arms were still around Belinda’s waist. Although Belinda felt a little awkward about their position, she didn’t dare to move, not wanting to hurt Darwin.

Then, after what felt like forever, Darwin slowly pulled away and stood up.

His face was pale, and his expression strained.

Belinda also stood up and grabbed his arm to steady him. “Are you all right, Mr. Lambert?”

Darwin closed his eyes briefly and took a deep breath. “I’m fine. What about you?”

Darwin’s short exchange with Belinda only ignited Minna’s rage. Darwin was already in such an awful state, but he was still worried about Belinda?

Darwin definitely had feelings for Belinda! He had lied to her when he said he didn’t like her.

“I’m fine. Come on, I’ll take you to the hospital.” Belinda put one arm around Darwin’s waist to guide him out of the room.

“Okay.” Darwin nodded.

They hadn’t even gone far from the table when Darwin’s body began to sway.

“Careful!” Belinda exclaimed as she tightened her arm around Darwin’s waist and grabbed his hand with hers. Feeling the warmth of Belinda’s hand, Darwin froze for a moment.

“I’ll do it!” Minna eagerly volunteered, already rushing over to help Darwin.
