Chapter 1366:

Belinda bit her lip, her fingers curling slightly. “I thought of that, too. But… I just can’t understand it. Why would she go so far as to make me fat and unattractive? What kind of mother wants her daughter to be mocked? What could her motive possibly be?”

Belinda’s face wore a complicated expression.

She said, “No matter how much I rack my brain, I can’t figure out Holley’s real intentions behind her actions. What does she gain if I become fat and unattractive? Holley’s not about to reveal her agenda. I’m completely in the dark about what she’s concealing.”

Lucas slid his arm around Belinda’s waist, offering reassurance. “If it’s too puzzling to sort out now, let it go for the moment. Don’t weigh yourself down with pointless stress.”

Belinda gave a small nod, choosing not to say anything more on the matter.

“How about we grab a drink or two?” Lucas proposed, trying to lighten the mood.
