Chapter 89:
“Darren.”
Belinda watched as Darren began packing up for her, her brow furrowing slightly. “Don’t bother. He's no longer at
the court.”
Darren paused, his hands frozen over the prescription notes he was collecting for Belinda. He looked up, his
expression apologetic. “Belinda, | had no idea you were on the phone with him, nor did | know about your divorce
appointment today. If | had, | wouldn't have...”
He stopped, hesitated, then decisively added, “I’m going to see Kristopher at Cox Group.”
“Darren.”
As he made to leave, Belinda, massaging her tired temples, stopped him. “Don’t bother.”
“But Belinda...”
Darren’s face was etched with guilt. “You had a divorce appointment... If you can’t divorce him because of me...”
“It’s not about you.”
Withdrawing her hand gently, Belinda offered him a wry smile. “He’s upset because | didn’t show up. No matter
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwhat, we'll get divorced one day. And now, I'm sure he’s much more anxious for a divorce than I am.”
Kristopher and Cathy’s engagement ceremony was just a week away, and he needed to be divorced before then.
Cathy would never accept him being married while engaged to her.
Belinda then turned to Darren with a polite smile. “Darren, you've been up all night because of me. You should
head back and get srest. Danilo will take over from here.”
Darren furrowed his brows and cast a wary glance at Danilo, who was lounging in a chair nearby. “Is that
alright?”

“Danilo was trained by Dr. Reid. He's quite capable,” Belinda reassured him, still smiling.
“Absolutely,” Danilo, who was already not fond of Darren, chimed in. Annoyed by his scrutiny, Danilo couldn't
resist a retort. “I'm just an intern, but when it comes to patient care, I'm certainly more adept than you.”
Darren's frown deepened, exhaustion weighing on him. Concern etched on his face, he looked at Belinda
earnestly. “Belinda, callif you need anything. I'm heading hnow.” With that, he draped his coat over his
arm and departed.
Once he was gone, Danilo shut the ward door and turned to Belinda, his curiosity piqued. “Is this man the reason
you want a divorce?”
“No,” she replied simply.
“Then is it because you're terminally ill and don’t want to burden your husband?” Danilo asked, his gaze intense.
“No, | don’t think so,” Belinda said, shaking her head.
Danilo's brow furrowed in confusion. “Then why? Don’t tellit's because your husband is having an affair.”
Observing Danilo's eagerness for gossip, Belinda smiled slightly. “You're close.”
His eyes widened in astonishment. “But you're so beautiful. How could your husband cheat on you?”
“Marriage isn’t really about looks,” Belinda replied with a gentle smile.
Danilo fell silent for a moment before nodding. “You're right. Just yesterday, | saw a celebrity who was rushed to
the hospital in an ambulance... What was her name?”
Belinda raised an eyebrow. “Cathy Miller?”
“That's her, yes!” Danilo exclaimed, his face lighting up. “I mean, she’s pretty ordinary, not stunning or anything.
Definitely not as beautiful as you. Yet, her boyfriend, the CEO of that big multinational company, he’s extremely
attentive towards her.”
As he spoke, Danilo let out a sigh. “You're right. Love doesn’t really hinge on looks.”
“Do you know what's wrong with Cathy? Why did she need to be transferred here?” Belinda asked, her smile
tinged with curiosity.
