StartNovelChapter 349:
Hearing this, Kristopher’s expression turned serious, and he gave a slight nod. He took a puff of his cigarette and
asked, “So, what does this have to do with Cathy?”
“It's related,” Belinda said, narrowing her eyes. “Because Jessa just confessed at the police station that she
handed the two phones over to Cathy.”
Belinda fixed Kristopher with a serious gaze and continued, “That's why | was heading to Eden View—to retrieve
my belongings and my friend's missing phone.”
Kristopher eyed her with a mix of suspicion and lingering doubt. “Have you considered that Jessa might be lying?
Why would Cathy want your and Madisyn’s old phones?”
Because Belinda had never mentioned Joyce when talking to Kristopher, he assumed the “friend” she referred to
was Madisyn. Belinda chose not to correct him; considering he had forgotten Joyce's pivotal role in saving him
five years ago, she doubted he remembered her.
With a resigned sigh, Belinda admitted, “I can’t be sure if Jessa is lying, but for now, she definitely doesn’t have
the phones. Since she claims they're with Miss Miller, | need to confront her and ask about their whereabouts.”
She turned and resumed her walk toward Eden View. “Stop following me.”
Watching her determined departure, Kristopher remained silent, deep in thought. After a moment, he
extinguished his cigarette, accelerated the car to catch up with her, rolled down the window, and said, “If you
walk, it'll be nearly dawn by the tyou get there. Get in. Ill drive you.”
After a brief hesitation, Belinda opened the car door and slid inside. She knew walking alone at this hour was

As the door shut, Belinda glanced ahead, a slight frown appearing on her face. “You can takethere, but |
need to speak with Cathy privately.”
Kristopher raised an eyebrow, a hint of indifference in his voice. “Is there something you need to discuss with her
that | shouldn't hear?”

Belinda turned her gaze to the trees whizzing by outside the window. “It’s none of your business.”
Before heading to meet Cathy, she had braced herself for confrontation. Despite their divorce and the fading
feelings for Kristopher, she dreaded him witnessing her vulnerability under Cathy's pressure.
Moreover, the conversation with Cathy would also involve Joyce.
Five years ago, during Kristopher’s illness, Joyce had been there. Since Belinda couldn't speak at the time, it was
Joyce who had communicated with Kristopher on her behalf. Kristopher’s forgotten memories of those days
meant that Belinda was determined not to bring up those events, especially not Joyce.
