NovelReadingChapter 813:
Lucas merely nodded in acknowledgment and didn’t say a word. Carmelita’s gaze slowly shifted toward Belinda,
who was standing quite close beside Lucas.
Her expression soured briefly, but then her eyes lit up as though a brilliant idea had just occurred to her.
Carmelita looped her arm around her companion’s and pulled the woman forward.
“Lucas, meet my brother's fiancée and my future sister-in-law, lliana Garza.”
As she said this, Carmelita shot a quick but pointed glance in Belinda’s direction.
Belinda was calm, unaffected, and it grated on Carmelita’s nerves.
Lucas, on the other hand, smirked when he heard the introduction.
He nodded at Iliana, his good mood evident. “Hello.”

lliana’s eyes widened slightly in surprise. “It’s nice to meet you, Mr. Clark,” she quickly said.
Lucas nodded. Then, he turned to Carmelita and said, “We're leaving now.”
After saying that, he turned and left with Belinda.
lliana sighed in amazement as she watched their retreating figures. “I never thought Mr. Clark was so
approachable!”
But Carmelita knew better—Lucas was never this nice with just anyone. The only reason he even bothered to
greet liana was because of her title as Devin’s fiancée.
Carmelita was willing to bet good money that Lucas was well aware of her brother's affections for Belinda.
“lliana, did you see the woman with Lucas just now?” Carmelita asked.
“Yes,” liana replied.

Carmelita scoffed, “You'd better keep a close eye on her. She’s got sserious tricks up her sleeve. She clings
to Lucas while also leading my brother on. You need to up your game, lliana. Honestly, | think you're the perfect
choice for my brother.”
lliana’s face stiffened, but she composed herself in the next second. “Don’t worry. Devin is mine. | won't let
anyone take him away from me!”
Carmelita beamed in satisfaction. “That's what | like to hear!”
Meanwhile, Belinda didn’t pay much attention to the encounter. As far as she was concerned, she and Devin
were just friends. She had no reason to care about his relationship with Iliana.
That night, at Verena’s home,
Minna had been fidgeting in her seat, anxiously waiting for the outcof their plan. She practically leaped out
of the couch when Verena walked in. “Well? How did it go?”

Her voice quivered with unease.
“Macie waited for you for two hours,” Verena stated. “She left when she realized you weren't coming. We didn’t
see anyone tailing her. And up until now, she hasn't contacted anyone about your supposed meeting.”
Minna heaved a huge sigh of relief, and then her face broke into a smile. “I knew it! Macie would never betray
me.” Unfortunately, she had spoken too soon.
Verena let out a short, humorless laugh before taking out a piece of paper and handing it to Minna. “Take a look
at this.”
Minna’s smile immediately froze.
Her relief morphed into unease as she reached for the document. Then, her eyes fell on the words written on the
