She had never anticipated Devin would harbor feelings for her.
After a moment, she took a deep breath and met his earnest gaze. “Thank you, Mr. Davidson. | truly appreciate

Devin’s lips parted slightly, a desperate yearning to respond bubbling within him, but his throat felt constricted,
rendering him unable to speak.
Belinda said, her voice carrying the weight of her emotions, “I was terrified... terrified at the thought that | would

everything, | had never truly let him go. I blocked his number, pushed him away, and feigned indifference,
repeatedly asserting that my feelings for him had faded, but no matter how many times I told him I didn’t love
him, I could never deceive myself...”
Devin’s complexion turned ashen, his heart sinking deeper into an abyss of despair.
“Mr. Davidson,” Belinda said gently but firmly, “I genuinely apologize for the pain this may cause you, but |

Devin’s gaze remained fixed on Belinda, his eyes a mixture of sorrow and devastation.

She gave him no hope at all.
Belinda pressed her lips together for a moment and added, “Oh, by the way, there's something | forgot to
mention... Lucas and | are back together.”
The words hit Devin like a final, crushing blow.
He hadn't expected them to reconcile so quickly, but he immediately understood why Belinda had told him this.
She was making it clear that there was no possibility for them to be together. At that moment, Devin truly
understood what it felt like to have his heart shattered beyond repair.
Seeing Devin’s pallid face, Belinda felt a twinge of guilt for being so harsh. Yet she knew that prolonging the
matter or leaving any ambiguity would not serve either of them well.
