?Chapter 1635:
“I’ve known about this for a long time,” Belinda said coldly, no longer willing to entertain Sarai’s self-serving words.
“What?” Sarai was taken aback.
Belinda let out a low, dryugh. Her voice turned razor-sharp with sarcasm. “Sarai, let’s stop pretending. You’re only confessing this now because you and Holley had a falling out, right? She has refused to be controlled by you anymore, hasn’t she?”
As Sarai absorbed Belinda’s words over the phone, her face visibly shifted, a wave of rm flooding her chest. She rushed to defend herself, her voice trembling as she said, “No, Belinda, it’s not what you think. Please, let me exin. I—”
“Exin?” Belinda cut in sharply, her toneced with scorn. “What’s left to rify at this point? Do you honestly expect me to trust a single word from you? It has been ages since that incident, Sarai. You had countless opportunities to reach out, to be honest with me. Did you? Not once! You stayed silent, didn’t you? And why? So you could hold that matter over Holley, keep her under your thumb!”
She let out a derisive chuckle, her eyes glinting with contempt.
She continued, “But what you didn’t expect was that Holley would suddenly stop being afraid of your threats. In fact, she’s even turned hostile toward you. So now, you’re scrambling to confess, thinking I’ll feel sorry for you and let youe back into Owathe. Am I wrong, Sarai?”
Sarai fell silent, her expression nk, her lips moving soundlessly as if grasping for words that wouldn’te.
Before she could respond, Belinda pressed on, her voice cold and unrelenting. “Do you want to know why Holley’s not scared of your threats anymore? It’s because she’s the one who injected me with those hormone drugs. The dark blotch on my face was also her doing. I know everything now, Sarai. So your threats lost their power. And youing clean to me now? It’s nothing but a pathetic act of desperation.”
Having known each other for years, Belinda and Sarai understood each other well. Belinda saw through Sarai’s sudden confession with crystal rity.<fn5078> Fresh chapters posted on fινdnοvel</fn5078>
And she was right.

That was why Sarai panicked.
After a long pause, Sarai finally mustered a response, her voice unsteady. “No, Belinda, you’ve got it wrong. I—”
“Enough!” Belinda snapped, her voice razor-sharp. “Save your breath, Sarai. Nothing you say will change my mind. I won’t forgive you, and I’ll never allow you back in Owathe. You should give up on that thought.”
“Belinda, how can you be so heartless?” Sarai’s voice cracked with desperation. “We grew up together! We might not be blood-rted, but we’ve always been like sisters!”
Belinda raised her voice with sudden intensity. “You want to talk about growing up like sisters? Let me ask you this—when you and my mother schemed to take Lucas from me, did you spare a single thought for me? You knew how much I loved him, and still, you went through with it. That shows I, your so-called sister, meant nothing to you! If you could betray me like that, stab me in the back without a flicker of remorse, why would I show you any mercy?”
Belinda’s words hit Sarai like a p, leaving her momentarily speechless.
