NovelApexChapter 1605: "Belinda, what do you think?" Johnson turned to Belinda, seeking her opinion.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBelinda pressed her lips into a thin line, her eyebrows drawing together. After several heavy seconds of thoughtful silence, she finally shared the insight that had been forming in her mind. "The more tI spend with Faye, the more I sense that..... she harbors romantic feelings for Lucas. I can't explain exactly why I feel this way. You might dismiss it as just a hunch, but it's the kind of instinctive recognition women have when they detect a potential rival in love." "Precisely! Catherine and I feel the sway when watching her behavior!" Bethany nodded enthusiastically, fully agreeing with Belinda's assessment. "Otherwise, what kind of niece gets jealous of her uncle's girlfriend? That's insane." Her words were sharp.
"That's impossible." Johnson immediately rejected the idea with conviction. "Lucas is Faye's uncle. How could she possibly have romantic feelings for him?" Bethany's expression shifted tically from casual discussion to deadly seriousness. She fixed her penetrating gaze directly on Johnson and asked, "Since we're venturing into this delicate territory, Johnson, I must ask you something crucial... Is Faye really related to Lucas by blood?" Belinda's eyes widened in surprise at Bethany's question. The question had the power to reshape their entire understanding of the situation.
Johnson was momentarily stunned. After a pause, he responded, "Are you suggesting that Georgie or Faye might have been adopted or taken in and have no blood ties to the Clark family?" "Yes." Bethany nodded. "If that proves to be the case, then no blood relation would exist between Faye and Lucas. Faye's romantic feelings for her supposed uncle would suddenly make perfect logical sense. Just like you and Catherine. Although you carry the title of siblings in society's eyes, you and Catherine are not related by blood. The only obstacle preventing your union remains your identities as adopted siblings." Johnson straightened his posture, preparing to share his knowledge. "From everything I've learned over the years, Lucas and Faye are related by blood. You must understand, I grew up alongside Lucas. So, my family is somewhat familiar with his. At the very least, I've never encountered any rumors that Georgie was adopted or taken in from outside the family. As for Faye..." After a pause, he continued, "Given the depth of my relationship with Lucas and our history of sharing personal information, if Faye had been adopted, he surely would have toldabout this. From what I understand, Georgie is a biological child of the Clark family, and Faye is her biological daughter." Bethany pondered for a moment before suggesting another possibility. "There's also the chance that, despite your close relationship with Lucas, he might not have shared this with you because it concerns Georgie's privacy."

Belinda, who had been listening quietly, suddenly spoke up. "Tonight, I'll try to ask Lucas about this indirectly, see if I can find out anything." Upon hearing Belinda's words, Johnson gave her a contemplative look. There was something in her tone-subtle, yet unmistakable-that suggested she, too, had begun to question whether there was any true blood relation between Faye and Lucas.
The thought clearly stirred something.

The son. His gaze darkened.
