Chapter 975

Chapter 975:
Belinda remained in the bathroom for what felt like hours, so long that Lucas eventually knocked on the door to check on her. It was only then that she emerged.
When Lucas saw the redness in her eyes, he understood immediately that she had been crying. His heart ached more deeply.
Taking Belinda’s hand, he guided her to the sofa. He then fetched a hairdryer from the bathroom and began drying her hair.
Belinda sat passively, feeling the warmth on her head but colder than ever inside.
Once he finished, Lucas was about to speak when the door burst open.
A man and a woman rushed in.
It was Bethany and Johnson.
Bethany’s face was marked with concern as she quickly took Belinda’s hand, her eyes reddening.
When Belinda saw Bethany, her eyes welled up with tears again. Johnson’s face was also etched with worry. “How could something like this happen?”
Speaking of this, Lucas couldn’t help but grit his teeth.
“The patient’s family very likely concealed the truth about the patient’s condition on purpose,” he said.
Johnson’s expression morphed into one of fury. “People like that are truly despicable! They must be held accountable!”
Lucas’ eyes grew cold, his presence radiating an intimidating aura. “Of course, I will make them pay! And it will be a painfully high price!”

Johnson then shifted his attention to Belinda, whose spirit seemed dimmed by the weight of the current situation.
“Belinda, just stay home and rest for the next twenty-eight days. Don’t dwell on anything; trust that everything will be alright,” he said, his tone imbued with gentle concern.
“I understand,” Belinda replied. Nodding, she forced a faint smile onto her lips, though it barely reached her weary eyes. “You don’t need to worry about me. I’m fine.” But how could she truly be fine?
Everyone present knew that the one suffering the most at this moment was Belinda.
“You can all go home. I am feeling a bit exhausted and would like to rest for a while,” Belinda said.
Bethany turned to Lucas and Johnson, her gaze steady and determined. “You two should head back. I’ll stay here and look after Belinda. She needs someone here with her.”
“That won’t be necessary, Bethany. You should go home as well,” Belinda said softly.
Bethany shot her an exasperated look, her brows furrowing. “Go home? Absolutely not! I refuse to leave you here alone.”
Belinda pressed her lips together, falling silent.
Bethany continued, addressing Lucas and Johnson, “You two should go. Don’t worry; I’ll keep her company. She won’t be alone.”
Lucas gave a slight nod, his expression serious. He seemed to think of something before speaking in a low, steady voice. “If anything happens, reach out to me immediately.”
