Chapter 1425:
Belinda gave a soft laugh at the offer. “No need, Faye. It's late, and your friends are probably waiting for you. You
can leave now.”
“It’s no big deal,” Faye said casually. “You should go take a shower.”
Belinda paused, then replied with a slight smile, “Not now. I'll wait until Lucas is a bit more sober. Then we'll

Faye’s face froze, her eyes widening in disbelief. “You... You're going to shower together?”
“That's right!” Belinda said with a grin, though a trace of shyness flickered across her face.
Faye, caught off guard by Belinda’s shy demeanor, felt a knot in her chest and struggled to find words.

Belinda couldn’t quite put her finger on it, but her impression of Faye worsened now.

particularly off.
Even though Lucas was her uncle, dabbing his forehead seemed far too familiar a gesture for Faye to attempt.

Pushing these thoughts aside, Belinda stepped into the bathroom, filled a basin with warm water, and carried it
out to wipe Lucas’ face and body.
Once he was cleaned up, she took a quick shower herself.
By the tshe slipped into bed, Lucas was already deep in sleep, his face calm and vulnerable.
A wave of affection washed over her, and she leaned down to press a soft kiss to his forehead before settling
beside him, drifting off as exhaustion took hold.
The next morning, thanks to the warm water from the night before, Lucas woke feeling slightly off but spared
from a splitting headache.
