Chapter 99:
Terrified, the women scrubbed their mouths with renewed effort, the ordeal stretching on until their lips were
numb and swollen.
At last, Belinda raised a hand. “That's enough,” she said coolly.
The three women stood there, their appearances disheveled, their makeup smeared, and their lips red and
swollen from scrubbing.
Belinda regarded them with a raised chin, her voice firm. “Do whatever you want—defend Kylee, badmouth me
again, or even spread this little story to anyone who'll listen. But make no mistake, | won't back down.”
With that, she turned on her heel and strode out.
The three women exhaled shakily, relief flooding them as soon as Belinda was gone.

Jada nodded weakly, though her hand trembled as she dabbed at her mouth.

Kylee blinked, her confusion evident. “Your families paying the price? What do you mean by that?”
“Kylee, didn’t you hear about what happened with the Adams family recently?” Jada looked at Kylee, her voice
low but curious.
“What happened?” Kylee’s voice was tinged with confusion.
Jada inhaled sharply and then spilled the details, saying, “Ryan was bad-mouthing Belinda at a restaurant, and it
just so happened that Mrs. Thomas overheard him. Because of that, the Thomas family canceled the business
cooperation with the Adams family right away!”
Another woman spoke up, her voice filled with disbelief. “Yeah, it was about that huge resort project. The Thomas
family was all set to sign with the Adams family, but they canceled the deal immediately after the incident. Now,
they're looking for a new business partner.”
Kylee’s complexion drained of color when she heard that. She was in disbelief.
How could the Thomas family have gone to such lengths for Belinda? To think they would cancel a solidified
partnership just to defend Belinda was beyond her comprehension! A surge of envy washed over Kylee, her
thoughts racing.
Why did the Thomas family value Belinda so highly? She was, after all, just an illegitimate child of the Wright

“Mine, too. My dad gavethe exact sadvice.”
