?Chapter 136:


    Belinda had long understood Kristopher’s true intentions.


    He was eager to get a divorce.


    Indeed, a month before Cathy’s return to the country, he had already reserved a venue and ordered a cake for his proposal to her. When Belinda first discovered this, she felt sad for some time.


    However, her sadness soon gave way to relief.


    She was relieved to know that Kristopher was also nning for the divorce. Otherwise, with his difficult nature, he might have dragged out the process.


    If three months passed, she feared she might remain bound to him even beyond death.


    So now, when Cathy made her remarks, Belinda felt no stirrings in her heart.


    She almost found it amusing.


    At that moment, the hospital room door opened.


    Kristopher entered, carrying a basin of warm water.


    He carefully set it beside Cathy’s bed and handed her a pink towel. Cathy quickly shifted her demeanor and smiled warmly at him. “Thank you, Kristopher!”


    Kristopher responded with a smirk and affectionately tousled her hair. Belinda watched their close interaction with cold detachment, feeling an unexpected annoyance.


    Even though she had moved on from Kristopher, witnessing her ex-husband disy affection for another woman still evoked a flicker of resistance.


    “Mr. Cox.”


    She rose to her feet and looked at the two people before her, her expression detached. “You mentioned that after I finish talking with Miss Miller, you will take me back and handle what’s necessary. I have stayed as you asked and spoken with Miss Miller. When do you n to take me back?”

    Kristopher frowned and looked at her with annoyance. “Can you at least wait until Cathy has finished washing up?” He couldn’t understand why Belinda was in such a rush.


    Did she not want to be in the same room with Cathy, or was it him she wished to avoid?


    Belinda pressed her lips together and asked again, “Will you take me back after Miss Miller has finished washing her face?”<fn9b77> ??? ????? ???????s ??? ?????s??? ?? find~novel</fn9b77>


    Belinda’s cold demeanor made Kristopher nervously adjust his tie. He looked over to Cathy, who was washing her face with her head down, and asked, “Cathy, what do you think?”


    “Sure.”


    Cathy finished washing her face, carefully dabbed away the water with a towel, and offered a sweet smile. “Since Miss Nelson is eager to leave, I shouldn’t keep her here, right?”


    After speaking, she set the towel down and looked at Belinda. “But Miss Nelson, before you go, you need to erase the ugly photo you secretly snapped of me crying earlier!”


    Belinda was taken aback. “What ugly photo?”


    “Stop ying dumb.”


    Cathy’s lip quivered as she spoke. “When Kristopher stepped out to get water, you took a photo of me crying with your phone. I saw it!” Cathy’s eyes filled with tears again. “We’re friends, so normally, an ugly photo wouldn’t bother me. But now that I’m an actress… If that photo gets out…”


    Cathy’s voice broke, and tears gathered in her eyes. “My career… might just be over.”


    Belinda gazed at Cathy, bewildered for a moment. “What are you talking about?”


    What ugly photo? What secret snapshot?


    They had been talking the entire time, and she hadn’t even touched her phone.


    Moreover, Cathy’s tearful expression earlier wasn’t out of the ordinary. Even if a photo had been taken, it wouldn’t necessarily be ugly, would it?


    “Miss Nelson, please, I really did see you take a photo of me crying,” Cathy pleaded tearfully. “Could you please delete it? I’ve just returned to the country and am still trying to establish myself in the Nawrin Entertainment scene. I can’t afford to have an unttering photo leak.”


    As Cathy sobbed and struggled to breathe, Kristopher walked over to Belinda with long strides. He extended his hand toward her and demanded, “Hand over the phone.”
