Chapter 175:
Anthony then scoffed. “That's not because your sister has turned over a new leaf. It's because she knows she'd
be reprimanded if she approached you. So, she goes to Belinda instead. Ever wonder why Belinda suddenly
makes large withdrawals from your account?”
Kristopher was dumbfounded. He turned his gaze from Anthony to Belinda, his eyes brimming with disbelief.
How could this be?
He had assumed Maggie no longer brought up personal issues since his recovery because she had grown more
responsible. And he had believed that Belinda’s lavish spending with the black card he provided was due to her
greed for wealth.
He had never suspected...
For the last three years, Belinda had been the one dealing with the troubles, hadn't she?
“If that's truly the case, then Belinda deserves our sympathy.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLeaning against the door with his arms crossed, Allen shook his head. “Given how aggressively Maggie acted
earlier, | assumed Belinda was on bad terms with her, almost like enemies. Yet, it seems Belinda has been the
one cleaning up her messes all this time.”
He clicked his tongue in disapproval. “Is Belinda just a fool for repeatedly solving problems for someone
undeserving, or is Maggie simply ungrateful, forgetting the kindness she’s received?”
Kristopher furrowed his brows. He fixed his gaze on Belinda. “Step outside withfor a moment. | need to talk
to you.”
Previously, Belinda would have immediately stopped whatever she was doing and followed him as soon as he
spoke.
But this time, she remained seated, gripping Anthony's hand tightly. “Mr. Cox.”
Her voice was frosty. “Whatever you have to say, you can say it here.”
Kristopher, unaccustomed to such a chilly demeanor from her, paused, his eyes briefly flaring with irritation. “I'm
merely asking to discuss Maggie's situation. I'm not going to do anything to you!”
After all, they were husband and wife. Why did she need to be so cold and defensive towards him?
“Since we're discussing Maggie...”
Belinda offered a gentle smile, her gaze flitting between Anthony and Allen. “There are no outsiders here. Let's
keep it straightforward.” Although Allen wasn’t part of the Cox family, and Belinda had known him for only a brief
period, his reputation had preceded him. Allen had grown up alongside Kristopher and was equally close to
Maggie.
In the past, not only had Maggie pursued Allen, but whenever Kristopher was overwhelmed and couldn't manage
Maggie's issues, Allen was the one who stepped in.
Maggie knew Allen well enough to trust his discretion; there was no reason for him to step out.
Belinda’s directness caused Kristopher’s brow to crease in disapproval. This was a side of her he wasn’t used to.
She wouldn't have dared to contradict him like this before!
