Chapter 530

Chapter 530:
“Yeah, what’s going on? Why did she slap herself?”
Belinda’s expression remained stoic, yet internally, she felt a stir of emotions.
Kylee’s abrupt act of self-punishment and her public apology seemed too orchestrated.
Belinda knew Kylee must have been forced to do this.
She suspected that Lucas had forced Kylee to make such a dramatic gesture.
Belinda’s eyes momentarily betrayed her thoughts, but then, she swiftly regained her composure.
“Alright, that’s enough. Let’s move on. No more talking about this. Let’s get back to our rounds,” Turner said.
Following the department head’s directive, the staff ceased any public discussion of the incident, though private conversations were another matter.
Belinda continued with her rounds.
After she finished, Belinda left the last patient room and yawned subtly as she made her way to her office.
Just then—
“Belinda! My poor daughter!”
Holley appeared suddenly, her eyes filled with concern as she rushed toward Belinda and enveloped her in a hug.

Caught off guard by Holley’s sudden appearance, Belinda froze, unsure how to respond.
Holley hastily removed the scarf from Belinda’s neck. “Let me see, how bad is your injury?”
Belinda’s frown deepened.
Holley’s actions were so swift that she hardly had time to react before her scarf was pulled away.
“I’m fine, Mom. It’s not serious,” Belinda said, reaching to retrieve her scarf from Holley’s grasp.
But Holley burst into tears. “How could you be fine? How could you possibly be fine? Oh, my poor daughter… How did you end up in the hands of that rapist?”
As soon as Holley finished speaking, the corridor was enveloped in a sudden silence.
Everyone turned to look at Belinda, their expressions a mix of shock and concern.
Belinda’s expression changed in an instant.
She hadn’t anticipated Holley revealing such personal information so publicly.
Her injury was nothing serious, but the more alarming fact was the identity of her assailant—a rapist.
How would this revelation affect people’s perception of her?
Would they see her as someone who narrowly escaped a serial rapist, or would they speculate that she had already been raped?
“Mom!” Belinda interjected sharply, trying to stop Holley from saying anything more.
