Chapter 415



Kylee couldn’t help but wonder how Belinda would continue to be arrogant without the protection of the Clark family. With these thoughts swirling in her mind, Kylee whistled happily as she walked toward the restroom.

After leaving the hospital, Belinda made her way back to the Thomas family’s residence. When she arrived, she found Debra and Percy in the living room, along with Mollie and Darren.

“You’re back, Belinda!” Mollie exclaimed, rising from the sofa as soon as she saw Belinda.

“Mollie,” Belinda said with a smile as she walked over to her.

When Mollie noticed Belinda’s limp, her brows furrowed with concern as she hurried over. “What happened?” she asked.

“It’s nothing; I just accidentally twisted my ankle,” Belinda replied, brushing it off.

“You really need to be more careful from now on,” Mollie said, her voice laced with concern. She wore a worried expression, and her touch was gentle as she reached out to steady Belinda, holding her arm.

“Belinda,” Debra called softly, her voice filled with concern. She also rushed over to Belinda, eager to lend a hand and support Belinda’s other arm.

“It’s fine; I can manage on my own,” Belinda said, trying to decline Debra’s assistance.

“Let us help you—it’ll make us feel less worried,” Debra said in a low voice, gently taking hold of Belinda’s arm to offer support.

After settling onto the sofa, Belinda couldn’t help but look at Debra.

Although she had no concrete evidence that Debra and Percy had drugged her that night, Belinda couldn’t shake the nagging suspicion that they had done something to her.

As Belinda looked at her, Debra met her gaze and offered a sweet, reassuring smile. Throughout it all, her expression remained calm and composed.

After sitting for a while, Debra and Percy politely excused themselves.

Once they left the Thomas family’s residence and got into the car, Percy turned to Debra with a serious look. “Debra, I couldn’t shake the feeling that Belinda was looking at you strangely just now. Do you think she suspects anything about us?” Percy asked, his tone cautious.

Debra maintained her composure after hearing that. “What’s worrying you?” Her voice was steady, devoid of any anxiety.

She paused briefly before a subtle smile played on her lips.

She said, “Belinda is merely suspicious, nothing more. She’ll find no proof. The moment that drug is ingested, it disappears without a trace, leaving nothing behind. No matter how diligently someone investigates, they will come up with nothing.”

That evening, Debra had indeed tampered with Belinda’s drink, though not with an aphrodisiac, but with a powerful alcohol enhancer. This particular substance was still experimental and not yet available to the public. Debra had stumbled upon it through the black market. The effects it had on Belinda confirmed the drug’s potent impact.

However, Debra hadn’t anticipated Belinda’s extreme reaction after getting drunk. Consequently, her plan with Percy had failed.

“You are right.” Percy gave a slight nod in response to Debra’s words. He then added with a concerned look, “Reflecting on it now, it’s fortunate our plan didn’t succeed. Otherwise…”

Debra’s face fell, and she clenched her teeth. “Who could have guessed that Belinda is Mr. Clark’s wife?”
