Was she begging for forgiveness again?" Belinda replied, "Of course. What else could she possibly be here for?" There was no effort to mask the sarcasm in her voice.
But then, her lips curled with quiet satisfaction. "Honestly, seeing her like that... I would be lying if I said I didn't feel pleased." Lucas moved closer, slipping his arm around her shoulders. He said with a serious expression, "Even if you find it in your heart to forgive her one day, I will not. I will make sure she feels every ounce of the pain she caused you."

"Yes, Holley mentioned it before."
Lucas thought about it for a moment before saying, "It looks like Baker helped Holley make thearrangements back then. Gordon's F report confirmed that the man you encountered at your house was indeed one of Baker's subordinates, not someone Holley was having an affair with."
Belinda let out a cold laugh. This was just as she had suspected. The content had content is on novelenglish.net!
