Chapter 260:

Subconsciously, Belinda glanced upward, drawn by a sound above her. At the stairs connecting the ninth and tenth floors, Kaya, Cathy’s agent, leaned casually against the railing. With a mocking smile, she said, “Looks like the truth’s out. The troublemaker happens to be Mr. Cox’s ex-wife’s lover. His ex-wife? She’s just a simpleton from the countryside.
