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

Chapter 1115:

Holley’s heart hammered harder. There was no doubt now; Sarai had indeed seen it. Yet, Holley believed she had no choice but to keep denying it.

Maintaining her composed smile, Holley said, “Sarai, you are really mistaken.”

Sarai brushed a strand of hair behind her ear, her demeanor unshaken. “Holley, I’m certain of what I saw. But if you want to keep denying it, that’s fine. I won’t push you. However, I’ll be calling Belinda later to share this with her. Let’s see if she remembers anything about being injected as a child.”

She paused, then added with a faint smile, “Oh, and Holley, I should also mention, it wasn’t just once. I saw it happen about four times. Once might be a mistake, but multiple times? Surely, I wasn’t mistaken.” Her words were a clear threat.

Holley’s mask of calm finally cracked. This couldn’t come to light. If Belinda or Lucas found out that she had once injected something into Belinda, their first thought would undoubtedly be hormones. And if that happened, it would be all over for her. There was no way she could explain that away.

Even if she continued to deny it and claimed Sarai was wrong, the mere suggestion would plant a seed of doubt in Belinda’s and Lucas’ minds. The risk was too great. She couldn’t let that happen.

Drawing a sharp breath, Holley locked eyes with Sarai, her gaze cold and piercing. Her voice was strained, each word clipped. “Name your price. What will it take for you to keep your mouth shut?”
