StartNovelChapter 1502: "Not much progress, I'm afraid," Zaria replied with a sigh of resignation. "Darwin has been away on a business trip to Chixdon recently." "I suppose there's nothing you can do about that,” Kylee said. "But you need to keep an eye on Belinda once Mr. Lambert gets back." Zaria replied, "I know. Speaking of Belinda, she turned out to be more capable than I expected. Do you remember when she insisted on a full organ replacement for Barbara? My whole family thought she was too reckless and refused the idea. But Dr. Star agreed with her treatment plan and even ended up entrusting Barbara's treatment after the surgery to Belinda. Now, both my aunt and my father hold her in high regard. They trust Belinda implicitly and have left Barbara's well-being entirely in her hands." Kylee's eyes flashed with envy and resentment.
Why was Belinda always so lucky? Kylee had really thought that after the incident with Barbara, the Wright family from Soling would cto despise Belinda. Yet, somehow, the tide had turned in Belinda's favor.
Kylee pressed her lips into a thin line. "I'll bet Star was behind that treatment plan from the start. Caiden probably fed the idea to Belinda so she could take credit for it. She's so desperate to boost her reputation. I bet that even if your aunt had agreed to Belinda's advice from the start, Star would still have been the one to perform Barbara's surgery." She paused and bit her lower lip for a moment. "Besides, don't you find the timing of Star's intervention suspicious? I'm inclined to think that Caiden planned the whole thing. He wanted Star to take over Barbara's treatment all along, but let Belinda present the prognosis to make her look more competent." These were purely speculations, of course, and Kylee didn't even have a smidgen of evidence to back them up. But she was convinced that this was the truth.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe simply refused to believe that Belinda had the skills to pull off something so impressive.
Zaria had no reaction to Kylee's words. Her face was blank, making it impossible to tell whether she believed Kylee or not.
In the end, she merely nodded lightly. "Perhaps." MORE UPDATES IN GALShe didn't really care about the truth of the whole thing.
Even if Nalani grew closer to Belinda out of gratitude, it wouldn't affect her in the slightest.
After all, Belinda was still an outsider.
Just then, Kylee suddenly thought of something. She turned to Zaria and said, "Wait, I heard you mention your father earlier... so, he trusts Belinda now?" "Yes." Zaria nodded. “To be honest, my father's attitude toward Belinda has been quite surprising. He may appear kind and amicable on the surface, but he has always been emotionally distant. But he doesn't act that way around Belinda." This was nothing more than a casual observation on Zaria's part, but it made Kylee's heart sink.
Why was Elwood treating Belinda differently? Was it their blood ties drawing them closer? Whatever the reason, Elwood's partiality toward Belinda spelled trouble for...
"By the way, Kylee," Zaria suddenly said, "is your father aware of your mother's past?" Kylee's brows furrowed slightly.
Since that conversation with Baker, she had heeded his warning and kept her guard up around Zaria.
Now that Zaria had taken the initiative to bring up Carola's o m Up Carola's O Som past not for the first time-Kylee couldn't help but feel suspicious.
She averted her gaze and said, “I never asked, so I'm not sure if the el knows anything about that." Zaria shrugged and didn't press any further.
But Kylee seized the chance to say, "Zaria, there's something I'm cutious about... Why are you so interested in your father's past?"
