NovelGoldChapter 1434:
“It’s really nothing serious,” Faye began, her voice tinged with frustration. “It's just that the other night, after we
left Nostalgia Lounge, Vincent offered to drivehome. On the way, he started givingall these opinions
about my behavior toward Uncle Lucas.”
She crossed her arms and let out a huff. “He said that now that I'm an adult, | should be more mindful—no more
linking arms with Uncle Lucas like | used to as a kid, and definitely no leaning on his shoulder. He pointed out
that Lucas is in a relationship with you now, and that if | kept doing things like that, it might upset you.”
Faye rolled her eyes, clearly exasperated. “Belinda, isn’t that ridiculous? Lucas is family! What's wrong with me
being close to him? | mean, you never said anything about it, so why does Vincent think he has the right to
lecture me? It's really infuriating!”
As Belinda listened, her expression shifted slightly. She hadn't expected Vincent to bring up this subject to Faye.
But inwardly, she couldn't help but appreciate his concern. It was reassuring to know that she and Lucas weren't

Faye turned to Belinda and asked, “So, Belinda, what do you think about it?”
Belinda smiled softly and answered without hesitation, “Honestly, Faye, | think Vincent has a point. You really
should start setting clearer boundaries with Lucas.”
Faye's face froze. Her eyes widened in disbelief; she was clearly taken aback by Belinda’s response. She had
thought that even if Belinda agreed with Vincent, she wouldn't say it out loud. She assumed Belinda would laugh
it off gracefully and pretend not to mind.
However, Belinda had directly said she agreed with Vincent. Faye looked hurt as she said, “You really think |
shouldn't be close to Uncle Lucas anymore?”
Belinda’s expression didn’t falter. Her voice remained gentle. “Faye, you're a grown woman now, hot the little girl
you once were. Naturally, sgestures that were innocent in the past might now be seen differently. Imagine if
your boyfriend saw you wrap your arm around another man. Wouldn't he feel hurt or even jealous?”
“You should be more careful about doing things like that around Lucas in the future.”

Faye’s expression stiffened for a moment. Still clinging to a thread of hope, she asked, “But Belinda, does it
really bother you? Are you actually upset or jealous about things like that?”
Belinda’s long lashes fluttered, and then she gave a small smile. “To be perfectly honest? I'm not exactly upset—
but yes, it makesuncomfortable. And a little jealous, too.”
After a pause, she continued, “You know how | am with Lucas. I'm quite possessive. Normally, if any woman gets
even a little close to Lucas, | feel displeased.”
Faye was stunned into silence. She had heard how Belinda had firmly dealt with other women who got a bit too
close to Lucas, but hearing it from Belinda’s own lips was another matter entirely.
