Chapter 671

Chapter 671:
“Look at this,” Mollie said, handing her an item.
Belinda took it with a brief look of surprise.
She opened it, and when she saw the contents, her eyes widened in shock.
It was an invitation.
More specifically, a wedding invitation.
Listed were the names: Bride Minna Williamson and Groom Moshe Burke.
Could these two really be getting married?
This was truly something Belinda had not anticipated. The date indicated that the wedding was just around the corner.
Everything was being arranged in such haste.
Suddenly, a thought struck Belinda.
This had to be Lucas’ doing.
How else could Minna end up marrying Moshe? The idea of her marrying below her status like this suggested coercion; she must have been forced.
“Belinda, tell me the truth. Did anything happen at the banquet?” Mollie inquired, her expression grave as she looked at Belinda.
At these words, Belinda felt her heart miss a beat. She quickly realized that the wedding invitation had aroused Mollie’s suspicions.

Belinda sat down next to Mollie, feigning innocence. “Nothing happened, Mollie. What makes you think something did?”
Mollie sat up, beginning to piece things together. “There’s something odd about Minna marrying Moshe. The Williamson family ranks as the eighth among the great families, and Minna is Rhys’s only daughter. But Moshe—what about his background? Yes, the Burke family holds a status in high society, but they don’t match up to the Williamson family. Moreover, Moshe is an illegitimate child. Darren mentioned that Moshe has some questionable habits. He takes pleasure in inflicting pain and has a history of violence towards his spouses. Both his previous marriages ended with his wives’ mysterious deaths.”
After a pause, she continued, “Given all these factors, why would Rhys and Minna even consider a man like Moshe? Is Rhys really forcing his daughter to marry someone so despicable just because of that incident? It’s not plausible! The Williamson family must have been threatened to do that. There’s definitely something suspicious happening.”
Upon listening to Mollie’s thorough analysis, Belinda found herself at a loss for words. The logic in Mollie’s words was sound.
Belinda considered that anyone else looking at this invitation would likely have the same questions.
She gave a slight nod. “You’re right; it does seem strange. However, this truly doesn’t involve me. I was merely an observer that day.”
Mollie’s expression tightened, her eyes studying Belinda with suspicion. “Is that really the case? Don’t hide anything from me, Belinda.”
“I’m telling the truth, I assure you,” Belinda responded, her eyes sparkling as she earnestly nodded at Mollie. As Mollie scrutinized Belinda, she found no signs of deception and began to suspect she might be overthinking the situation.
