NovelEndChapter 1164:
Belinda pressed her lips together momentarily before offering an explanation. “Grandma, it’s simple—she’s
heartbroken at the thought of leaving you. Think about it: Sarai won't be able to see you for years. It's only
natural that she'd be emotional about it,” she said.
After a slight pause, she added, “And as for the job itself, Lucas was the one who introduced her to it. You really
don’t have to worry.” Belinda had already made up her mind—she couldn't reveal the truth about Sarai’s
situation to Kenia.
Kenia had practically raised Sarai as her own. If she ever learned the real reason for Sarai’s sudden departure,
the shock might be too much for her fragile body to bear.
Kenia’s old age only reinforced Belinda’s reluctance to reveal the truth. Belinda decided it was best to keep the
truth hidden for now, at least until it becimpossible to conceal any longer.

Kenia fell silent, studying Belinda carefully. Though she said nothing, she wasn’t convinced she had been given
the full story.
It wasn’t just Sarai—Holley had been acting strangely the night before as well. Her demeanor had been subdued,
her spirits noticeably dampened. And she hadn't uttered a single word about Sarai’s impending move to Soling.
Kenia knew that something must have happened when they had dinner together last night.
But none of them were willing to tell her anything.
Belinda, sensing her grandmother's lingering concern, spoke softly. “Grandma, please don’t worry. There's truly
nothing to be concerned about.”
Kenia didn’t reply, but the worry etched on her face remained.

Belinda let out a quiet sigh. She felt powerless—this was the best she could do for now.
At a secluded booth in a café,
The moment Holley stepped inside, her eyes locked onto the man sprawled comfortably on the sofa. Her
expression darkened as she stormed toward him. “Lamont, what the hell is this about? We had an agreement—
you took the money and promised to disappear from my life forever! So why do you want to seeagain?”
Just half an hour earlier, Holley had been on her way hfrom the hospital when she received an unexpected
call from Lamont. He had insisted they meet, claiming he had something urgent to discuss.
Lamont smirked, entirely unbothered by her fury. He motioned for her to sit down, his tone light. “Ms. Lewis,
don’t get so worked up. Con, take a seat. You can have swater and cool off.”
Holley approached him and said sharply, “Cut the nonsense. Just tellwhat you want this time.”
Lamont let out an exaggerated sigh. “Hey, no need to be so harsh! It’s nothing major... It's just that the five
hundred thousand you lentlast time? Well, let's just say it’s all gone. And now, | can’t even afford a decent
meal.”
He leaned forward slightly, feigning helplessness. “So, | had no choice but to cto you again, Ms. Lewis. | was
hoping you might be generous enough to lenda little more.”
When Holley heard this, her expression darkened further.
Holley realized that Lamont was here asking for money again.
Her face contorted with fury as she glared at him. “Are you seriously tellingthat in less than ten days, you've
already burned through the five hundred thousand | gave you? What on earth did you do with all that money?
And why are you askingfor more? Every tyou run out of money, you crunning to me. Do you have
any idea how much | had to sacrifice to scrape together that money for you last time? | had to swallow my pride
and borrow it from many people. And now, not only have you squandered it all, but I'm completely broke as
well!”
