Chapter 176:
“Just get to the point.”
Anthony glanced at Kristopher, who appeared reluctant to continue, and scoffed. “Con, we're all family
here. What's there to hide?”
Allen gave a small chuckle. “Kristopher, needto leave?”
With the conversation having reached this stage, it was difficult for Kristopher to push further.
“There's no need.”
After he finished speaking, he turned to Belinda. “It’s not a big deal, but I've been wondering... Over the years,
how many issues have you handled for Maggie and how much have you ended up spending?”
Belinda arched an eyebrow. “Countless issues, so many I've lost track. But if you want to know about the money,
that | can answer.” She looked directly at Kristopher. “The total on that black card you gave me? That's exactly
how much I've spent on her.”
Kristopher’s face registered shock. “The card | gave you... You've been using it for her expenses?”

use my own money? You know my story. | cfrom a small village, and my parents never looked out for me
after they tookin. | don’t have a lot of money.”
Kristopher’s expression softened. “That wasn’t what | meant.”
For the past two years, Rosie and Maggie, the mother-daughter duo, had constantly told Kristopher how Belinda
was squandering his money on luxury items and jewelry with his black card.
He had always assumed that she was just trying to maintain appearances.
But now, faced with the truth, he was taken aback.

“What exactly do you mean by that?”
Anthony’s brow furrowed as he fixed a stern gaze on Kristopher. “Belinda has already done more than enough for
the Cox family. We owe her a great deal, and you...”
“Mr. Cox.”
Before Anthony could finish, a nurse entered, lightly tapping on the doorframe. “You're much better now. It's
tto move you to a regular ward. We need this space for other patients.”
At the nurse's reminder, everyone in the room suddenly becaware that they were still occupying the
resuscitation area.
Apologizing to the nurse, Belinda, along with Allen and Kristopher, helped wheel Anthony out.
Once settled back in the ward, silence enveloped the room.
Anthony, propped against the headboard, gave Kristopher a cold, penetrating look that hinted at an unspoken
challenge.
Allen broke the tension with a smile, turning to Belinda. “Did you manage to eat anything this morning? I'm
about to grab sbreakfast for Mr. Cox. Would you care to join me?”
Belinda nodded in agreement. “Sure,” she replied.
The weight of the room's silence was becoming too much for her.
“Wait!”
