Chapter 661

Chapter 661:
Despite the pain, she fought to keep her face expressionless, revealing none of her distress.
She replied softly, “Yes.”
In that instant, a profound ache consumed Lucas’ heart.
He suddenly let go of Belinda’s wrist.
His voice was hoarse and strained. “I understand.”
Belinda then opened the car door and stepped out without another word.
She walked away firmly, looking unaffected.
Yet, the bitterness and pain gnawing at her heart remained her secret alone.
Upon reaching home, she rushed to the bathroom, knelt before the toilet, and retched until she felt utterly empty. Confusion overwhelmed her; she hadn’t consumed much alcohol that evening and was not drunk at all, yet turmoil churned within her heart. After she vomited, her stomach burned.
She stood up, rinsed her mouth, exited the bathroom, and drank a glass of water to calm the burning sensation in her stomach.

Completing her duties, she stifled a yawn on her way to the break room to get a cup of coffee.
At that moment, a doctor came up to her and said in a low tone, “Dr. Wright, Dr. Patel from the Medical Section just called the office. He requests your presence in his office.”
Belinda paused for a moment when she heard this and then quickly responded, “Alright, I understand. Thank you.”
“You’re welcome.”
Once the doctor had departed, Belinda stood quietly for a brief moment and then redirected herself toward Branson’s office.
She tapped on the door.
From inside, a voice called out, “Come in.”
Belinda entered the room.
Standing in front of the desk, she asked, “Dr. Patel, what do you need?”
On the way here, Belinda had already been wondering what Branson wanted to discuss with her.
She felt she might already know the answer to that. Without a word, Branson turned his computer screen towards Belinda and clicked the mouse.
Belinda’s eyes flickered slightly as she watched the video on the screen.
Her suspicions were confirmed.
