His unwanted wife, the world’s coveted genius by Derk Blaylock

Chapter 1078:

Despite her words, Sarai was, in fact, looking down on Belinda. How could she not? This was HIV they were talking about! A contagious and life-threatening disease. Who in their right mind wouldn’t be cautious or afraid? As a matter of fact, when Sarai found Belinda wiping Kenia’s hands and face with a towel earlier, her heart had almost pounded out of her chest.

It didn’t matter that Belinda had been wearing a mask and gloves the entire time, Sarai was still terrified. What if Belinda slipped up and accidentally scratched Kenia? Hadn’t Belinda hurt Holley and put the latter at risk of infection before?

Sarai was genuinely scared. She spent most of her time with Kenia, after all. If Kenia ended up getting infected, wouldn’t that put her in danger as well? And so, after careful consideration, she made up her mind to speak to Belinda about the matter and ask her to stop taking care of Kenia.

Belinda’s face was still ashen even after Sarai’s explanation. A long beat of silence passed before she let out a self-deprecating laugh. Of course, how could she have forgotten? She was now a carrier of a deadly virus! Who wouldn’t be afraid of her? Who wouldn’t want to stay away from her?

“I’m sorry, Belinda,” Sarai quickly said. “Was I too harsh? Please believe me; I don’t mean to be harsh to you. I’m just worried about Kenia. I—”

“I understand,” Belinda interjected. She forced a small smile, and while her voice was calm, she sounded distant. “You’re right. I’m not exactly the most ideal person to take care of Grandma right now.”

Belinda took a deep breath. “I suppose I shall leave her in your care from now on.”
