Chapter 1125:

In the afternoon, Lucas arrived at the Grand Plains General Hospital to pick up Belinda from work. He was half an

hour early and decided to visit Kenia in her hospital room to pass the time.

Holley and Sarai were in Kenia’s room with her. However, Lucas paid them no attention.

After a brief conversation with Kenia, he rose to leave as soon as she drifted off to sleep. As he stepped out of

the room, a voice suddenly called out from behind him, “Mr. Clark...”

Lucas turned his head. When his eyes landed on Holley, his expression darkened slightly. He remained silent.

Holley wasted no tand spoke up. “Mr. Clark, I'd like to invite you and Belinda to a meal. There have been

smisunderstandings between Belinda and me. She hasn't spoken toin days, and honestly, it's been

weighing on my mind. I'd really like the chance to clear the air and apologize properly. Could you help arrange

it?”

She sounded completely sincere, her tone even carrying a trace of pleading.

Lucas, however, responded with a cold laugh. “Holley, just because | haven't found proof linking you to the

hormones in Belinda’s system doesn’t mean you’re innocent in the matter.”

His eyes glinted with warning. “If | uncover anything, you won't walk away unscathed.”

He then took a step closer, his presence suffocating. “From now on, stay away from Belinda. And stop pretending

you care about her when all you're doing is manipulating her!”

Holley’s face drained of color. Her breath hitched as she looked up at Lucas, disbelief flickering across her face.

“Mr. Clark, how could you say that? I'm Belinda’s mother! Do you really think I'd ever harm my own daughter?

Please, you have to believe me—I had nothing to do with what happened to her! |—"

Lucas had no patience for her pleas. Cutting her off with an icy tone, he said, “You know the truth better than

anyone else. | suggest you take my warning seriously; otherwise, you'll regret it!”

His piercing gaze held hers for a second longer before he turned on his heel and walked away, his departure

leaving an oppressive silence in the air.

Holley swallowed hard, not daring to say anything more. Her chest tightened, her heart pounding erratically.

Perhaps Lucas had been too nice in front of Kenia lately, so much so that she had forgotten—forgotten that he

was still the scold, ruthless man. When he chose to unleash that side of himself, the sheer force of it was

suffocating.

Just then, the door to Kenia’s hospital room creaked open, and Sarai stepped out.

Holley turned sharply toward her. “You heard that, didn’t you? That's how he treatsnow. He won't even let

he keeps shuttingout. Considering the current situation, | don’t see how | can help you.”

She had left the door slightly ajar on purpose, ensuring Sarai overheard the entire exchange.

Sarai, however, remained composed. A small, knowing smile played at her lips as she spoke in a smooth tone.

“I'm sure you'll cup with something, Holley. | believe in you.”

Without giving Holley a chance to respond, Sarai turned and disappeared back into the room.

“You...” Holley’s teeth clenched as she watched her leave, her expression darkening.

On the way home, Lucas recounted Holley’s request to Belinda.

Belinda listened in silence before letting out an amused scoff.
