Chapter 537



Belinda had been assaulted by a rapist? It was almost too good to be true.

She pulled out her phone and sent a text: “Spread the news about Belinda’s assault as widely as possible! The more people know, the better!”

A smug smile then spread across her face.

Whether it was true or not was irrelevant.

She just wanted this to be a permanent scar on Belinda.

Just then, a knock at the door interrupted her thoughts.

The door opened, and Verena’s eyes narrowed with confusion.

Why was this person here?

Verena believed she and the visitor were not familiar with each other at all.

“Miss Wright, is there something you need?” Verena asked.

The visitor was Kylee.

After closing the door, Kylee approached the bedside chair and sat down, smiling at Verena. “I heard you attempted suicide by slitting your wrist, Miss Reed,” she said.

Verena’s brow furrowed. “Is that why you’re here, Miss Wright?”

“Do you think your drastic action will bring Mr. Clark back to you?” Kylee asked.

Verena’s expression darkened. “You need to leave now!”

“Don’t be upset, Miss Reed.” Kylee chuckled. “I’m not here to mock you. I’m here to suggest we team up.”

“You want us to team up?” Verena laughed. “You must be joking. I see no reason for us to team up.”

“Oh, there is. You want to win back Mr. Clark,” Kylee’s eyes narrowed, a hint of malice flashing within them, “I simply want to see Belinda suffer. That would bring me great joy.”

Kylee was alone and weak in this.

Dealing with Belinda had already been difficult for her.

Yet now, Lucas seemed utterly captivated by Belinda.

Even after the divorce, he treated Belinda better and supported her.

Since Belinda had Lucas’ support, Kylee believed taking action against Belinda was nearly impossible.

She knew she needed someone to divert Lucas’ attention.

Her ultimate goal was to utterly destroy Belinda, making sure she could never recover.

As for Lucas, she wouldn’t give up on him.

Once Belinda was dealt with, she could take her time dealing with Verena.

Time would tell who the better strategist was.

Verena’s eyebrows twitched when she heard that.

Why did Kylee harbor such intense hatred for Belinda? Though, she supposed, resentment between a legitimate daughter and a child born out of wedlock wasn’t unusual.

Verena sneered and said, “I do want to win back Lucas, but I don’t think I need to team up with you. We’re practically strangers, Miss Wright.”
