Chapter 99:

Days of pent-up grievances and frustrations erupted, causing Belinda to cry more loudly and desperately.

“Belinda, please stop crying.”

Fred was immediately thrown into a panic.

He attempted to wipe away her tears with a tissue, gently reassuring her, “Don’t be upset, we’ll continue our search. Perhaps we haven’t covered enough ground…”

His attempts to console her only made Belinda cry harder.

“Please, stop crying.”

Feeling helpless about how to comfort her, Fred finally drew her face to his chest with a gentle hand.

Belinda bit her lip, feeling an urge to push him away, yet Fred firmly held her hands.

“Belinda, if you cry into my chest, few will hear. Otherwise, I can’t explain what’s happening here at this late hour.”

After a moment’s hesitation, she ceased her attempts to push him away.

Resting against Fred’s sturdy chest, her emotions began to stabilize, and her sobs slowly faded.

“Okay, okay, stop crying,” Fred murmured, patting her back awkwardly. “I’ve heard stories about cats that find their way home. Perhaps… Fluffy might have returned to your previous home. Shall we check at your ex-husband’s place?”
