Chapter 1677:
In a bustling diner glowing with warm lights, Belinda treated Barbara to a meal after leaving the amusement
park.
Halfway through their meal, Lucas joined them. Barbara observed closely as Lucas doted on Belinda. She finally
understood what Belinda had told her before—Belinda and Lucas were indeed very happy together.
After the meal, Lucas and Belinda drove Barbara back to the Wright family’s residence. As Barbara hopped out of
the car, she spun around to look at Belinda, her face alight with gratitude. “Belinda, today was incredible!
Thanks for hanging out with me. Can we do it again soon?”
Her wide eyes shimmered with eager anticipation.
“Definitely,” Belinda replied with a warm nod.
“Great!” Barbara's grin stretched ear to ear as she practically bounced with excitement. She started toward the
house but halted mid-step as if a sudden thought had just struck her. Walking back to the car, she fixed her gaze

ever dare hurt Belinda, the whole Wright family will make you wish you hadn't, especially me!”
She punctuated her warning by flexing her skinny arms, the gesture almost comical.

voice dripping with playful warning. “Let's see if you've got the guts to mess withagain.”
Lucas’ hands shot up in surrender, his words tumbling out in a hurried rush. “I wouldn't even dream of it.”

Belinda chuckled, the sound light and teasing. “Alright, let's head back.”
Lucas nodded. “Okay.” He then fired up the engine and pulled smoothly onto the road.
During the drive, he glanced over at Belinda and asked, “So, where did you and Barbara go today? You seemed
to have been out all day.”
