His unwanted wife, the world’s coveted genius

Chapter 860:

Holley’s chaotic thoughts were abruptly interrupted when Belinda’s calm, steady voice cut through the tension.

“Mom, there’s something I want to ask you.”

Holley blinked, snapping back to the present. She looked at Belinda, feigning composure.

“What is it?”

Belinda’s expression remained unreadable as she asked, “The day before yesterday, you and Kylee had a five-minute phone call. What did you two talk about?”

Holley froze for a moment. Her eyes widened slightly.

“How do you know about that call?” she asked, feeling a rising panic inside her.

Belinda’s gaze sharpened, her expression hardening. Her voice grew colder as she said, “Answer the question.”

Holley blinked, her expression one of feigned innocence as she explained, “It’s nothing. Kylee merely called to tell me not to visit the Wright family’s estate again. She said her entire family doesn’t wish to see me. I was quite upset at the time, so we exchanged a few heated words, but that’s all.”noveldrama

She had quickly concocted this explanation.

Belinda said nothing in return. She merely fixed Holley with a frosty gaze, her eyes penetrating.

As though anticipating what was coming next, Holley stared at Belinda in astonishment, her voice trembling slightly as she said, “Belinda, surely… Surely you’re not suspicious that I am involved in this matter? Do you believe this has anything to do with me? That I would conspire with others to harm my own daughter?”

By the end of her statement, her voice had risen, and her emotions seemed to spiral out of control.

Kenia frowned deeply, her lips pressing into a thin line as she directed a serious look at Belinda.

“Belinda, there’s no way this could involve your mother!” she said.

Belinda, however, remained composed, her tone unwavering as she met Kenia’s gaze.

“It’s just all too coincidental. The night before last, Kylee spoke to my mother for five minutes. The following day, my mother asked me to buy her pastries, and almost immediately after, Minna appeared and tried to kill me—”

“It’s purely a coincidence!” Holley interjected, tears streaming down her cheeks. Her voice cracked as she spoke again, her emotions spilling over like an overflowing dam.

“Belinda, I’m your mother! The one who brought you into this world. How could you possibly think I’d conspire with anyone to harm you? How could you doubt the bond we share? You’ve hurt me deeply, more than words can say!”

With that, she abruptly rose from the sofa, her sobs echoing in the room as she went to her bedroom, running from the pain of Belinda’s accusations.
