Chapter 114:

Turner didn’t respond immediately. He narrowed his eyes slightly, lost in thought.

After a moment, his expression softened, returning to its usual calm. “Alright, Kylee. Don’t worry about me. You

can go back to work now,” he said.

“Okay.” Kylee nodded, giving him a small smile before leaving.

At noon, at The Harlequin Eats, Belinda stepped into the private dining room to find several people already

inside.

As soon as Belinda entered, a woman seated on the sofa sprang to her feet and approached her with a bright

smile. “You're finally here!” the woman said warmly.

Belinda offered a polite nod. “Ms. Thomas.”

Debra Thomas waved dismissively, pouting playfully. “Oh, con, Belinda! No need to be so formal. Just call

Belinda smiled slightly but said nothing.

Debra’s family had distant ties to Santino’s. Her grandfather and Santino’s father were brothers, which

technically made them fourth-generation relatives.

Belinda had only met Debra once before, at her own welcbanquet. Despite their limited interaction, Belinda

had later heard from Darren about Debra’s family. Debra’s grandfather had once helped Darren's, fostering an

enduring connection between the two families.

Debra led Belinda to the sofa with enthusiastic energy. “Belinda, letintroduce you. This is my brother, Percy.”

Belinda turned her attention to the man nearby. He looked to be in his early thirties, with sharp features and an

air of quiet confidence.

“Percy, this is Belinda,” Debra said cheerfully.

Percy Thomas extended a hand with a polite smile. “Hello, it's a pleasure to meet you.”

Belinda shook his hand briefly. “The pleasure is mine, Mr. Thomas.”

“Perfect! Now that Belinda’s here, let's eat!” Debra clapped her hands together and guided everyone to the

table.

Once seated, Debra dominated the conversation, directing most of her attention toward Belinda. “Is it true that

you're working in the Cardiac Surgery Department at the Grand Plains General Hospital? That's incredible! I've

heard it’s nearly impossible for doctors under 30 to get hired there. You must be truly exceptional!”

Debra’s eyes sparkled with admiration when she looked at Belinda, her praise flowing freely. Belinda felt her

scalp tingle under the intensity of Debra’s adulation. She managed a chuckle, brushing it off. “Not really. You are

flattering me.”

Before she could continue, Debra’s expression abruptly changed. Her eyes were suddenly filled with tears, and

moments later, she covered her mouth, sobbing quietly.

Belinda’s eyes grew wide in bewilderment.

“I must apologize for her to you.” Percy quickly spoke up. “Debra has just recently been broken up with, so she is

“I'm sorry, Belinda,” Debra said and sniffed. “I lost my composure for a moment there. My boyfriend of three

Instead of finishing her sentence, Debra burst out crying once again.
