NovelGoldChapter 107:
Belinda paused, then suddenly remembered. “Fluffy!”
She rose quickly, piecing together that Kristopher was likely to return Fluffy to her.
To mask her realization that Fluffy was indeed with Kristopher, she feigned astonishment. “Did you manage to
find Fluffy for me?”
Kristopher reclined in his chair, his tone indifferent. “First, | have a few questions.”
“What questions?”
He narrowed his eyes, examining Belinda with a critical gaze. “The phone call you made totwo nights ago,
what was that about? And why did you ignore my calls after that?”
Taken aback by his directness, Belinda stumbled for an excuse. “I dialed the wrong number. When | saw you had
called back, | didn’t know how to explain, so | chose not to answer.”
His expression grew colder. “Who were you trying to call? Darren Wright?”
Belinda quickly shook her head. “No.”
“Not him?”
He scoffed. “That very night, after you dodged my call, | saw Darren rushing out of the restaurant. Later, |
spotted him outside your apartment. Are you tellingyour call wasn’t for him?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBelinda was momentarily stunned, struggling to gather her thoughts. “You were at my apartment that night
too?”
“When you called and then said nothing, and didn’t respond when | called back, | worried something had
happened to you. So, | cto check on you.”
Kristopher let out a cold snort. “I certainly didn’t expect to find Darren leaving your place, tellingyou were
already asleep.”

Her mind buzzed with confusion.
After Darren escorted her to the hospital, he had returned to her apartment to find her medication log. That must
have been when Kristopher encountered Darren.
Yet, she had clearly asked Darren the previous day whether he had seen Fluffy during his subsequent visit to her
apartment.
He mentioned not seeing Fluffy and said nothing about meeting Kristopher.
“Belinda.”
Kristopher’s voice jolted her back to the moment as he peered intently at her. “Were you actually asleep at that
time?”
Quickly, she shook her head, a firm denial. “No, no.”
She couldn't grasp why Darren had informed Kristopher that she was asleep.
So late at night, a man leaving a woman's apartment and claiming she was already asleep... Didn't that just
invite misunderstanding?
Kristopher’s icy gaze bore into her. “Then Darren tellingyou wanted to sever ties with your past and didn’t
even want the cat we raised together, insisting | take Fluffy back... was that your doing?”
Belinda felt as if her head might burst.
So, Fluffy hadn't been lost but had been handed over to Kristopher by Darren that night?
No wonder Darren had sounded off when she had called him twice yesterday about Fluffy.
She had thought he was merely exhausted from staying up with her all night.
It appeared now he was wracked with guilt!
With this realization, she shook her head vigorously. “I didn’t know! | never said | didn’t want Fluffy, nor was |
aware he told you that! That night, | wasn’t even home. He cto pick up sthings for me. | had no idea he
met you or that he handed Fluffy over and said such things... I...”
She bit her lip, her voice thick with emotion as she continued, “Yesterday, Madisyn spent all day looking for
Fluffy, and | searched all night. Last night, out of desperation, | even thought of asking you for help... If | had
really told him to give Fluffy to you, | wouldn't have needed to ask you...”
Seeing Belinda’s tear-filled eyes, Kristopher arched an eyebrow, a hint of satisfaction in his tone. “So, that night,
nothing happened between you and Darren?”
