NovelGoldChapter 184:
Belinda, sensitive to discussions of health due to her own conditions, shuddered slightly at the mention of
“terminal illness.” However, she quickly regained her composure and continued her task with calm efficiency.
Allen noticed the brief change in her demeanor.
After breakfast, Anthony was required to remain in the hospital for intravenous treatment and rest. Upon bidding
him goodbye, Allen and Belinda exited the hospital room together.
“Just now...”
Inside the elevator, as the doors shut, Allen’s brow furrowed with concern. “Earlier, when Anthony brought up
Cathy’s condition, you seemed unsettled.”
He studied Belinda, tilting his head slightly to gauge her reaction. “Is there a past trauma that makes you
sensitive to mentions of ‘terminal illness’?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTaken aback, Belinda paused briefly before shaking her head. “No.”
“Then, you...”
“You are mistaken,” she cut him off with a cold tone. “I felt nothing unusual.”
Allen looked into her resolute eyes, his own filled with doubt. “So, | was mistaken?”
“Mm.”
Belinda nodded, swiftly changing the subject. “Mr. Wilde.”
His thoughts interrupted, Allen responded, “Yes?”
“Regarding what you said to Anthony earlier...”
She inhaled deeply. “I will consider it a joke. After my divorce, | intend to maintain no connections with anyone
linked to Kristopher, except for Anthony. | trust you understand.”
Allen, momentarily taken aback by Belinda’s frank dismissal of any deeper connection, managed a bitter smile.
“Is there really no chance for me? | am not Kristopher.”

Belinda looked directly at him, her expression tinged with cool detachment. “Can you guarantee that your family
will sever all ties with Kristopher for my sake?”
Allen was taken aback, falling silent. Kristopher was the CEO of the Cox Group, a commercial titan in Nawrin.
Dealing with him was unavoidable for anyone interested in business there. Moreover, the Wilde and Cox families
shared close personal ties, reaping substantial benefits from their association with Kristopher over the years.
Allen knew he couldn’t guarantee his own disassociation from Kristopher, let alone promise the sfor his
entire family.
“Since you can't, if | accept you, | would inevitably have to see Kristopher. It would affect your family’s business
dealings with him first and foremost.”
She took a deep breath. “I don’t want any ties with Kristopher after the divorce. It's best if we don’t even see
each other. | hope you understand.”
Just as Belinda finished speaking, the elevator doors opened.
She smiled at Allen. “I'm leaving now.”
With that, she walked out of the elevator.
To her surprise, the first floor of Peace Hospital was bustling.
Reporters with cameras and microphones filled the area.
In the center of this frenzy, Cathy appeared bashful, while Kristopher stood behind her with a gentle, doting
expression.
