Chapter 1390: After returning home, Belinda headed upstairs to check on Gwenda. She knew Gwenda was likely hurting, too. But at her age, Gwenda had weathered life's storms, her emotional resilience a steady anchor.
In a hospital room...
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBaker pushed open the door to the hospital room and strode inside. As he entered, he said, “What happened? Why are you in the hospital?" However, the moment his gaze landed on Holley, his expression twisted in shock. "You... What on earth happened to you?" Holley's entire face, except for her eyes, nose, and mouth, was tightly wrapped in thick layers of gauze, leaving her almost unrecognizable.
"Baker..." At the sight of him, Holley's eyes welled with tears, her voice thick with emotion. She sniffled, fighting back her sobs, before finally saying, "It was... It was Mollie and Belinda! Those two vile, wretched women did this to me!" Her words tumbled forth, each one laden with rage and humiliation. "Belinda actually dragged Mollie into our home, and then..." Holley bit down on her lip, trembling with fury. "Then Mollie ordered her two bodyguards to holddown, and she slapped me! Not once, not twice-but thirty times! Can you believe it? Thirty times! She's vicious!" Holley wailed, her voice shrill with disbelief and humiliation. "That bitch Belinda just stood there, watching. I begged her to help me. But she just said she'd arrange for someone to taketo the hospital after they were done!" The memory sent fresh waves of anger surging through her body.
Baker's expression darkened. He stood there, silent as stone, his face grim. Amid Holley's tirade, one chilling truth sank deep into his heart-the Thomas family now knew about what she had done to Belinda. And they were furious.
They had already offended the Clark family, and now, the Thomas family was furious with them as well...
The thought of it made Baker feel as though his world was crumbling around him.

Baker roared, his voice sharp enough to slice through steel. He glared at her. "Do you even hear yourself? Avenge you? Have you lost your mind? Do you even know who Mrs. Thomas is? She's the wife of the Thomas family's head! The Thomas family is powerful. Do you think I have the power to touch them? Avenge you? What do you wantto do, drag Mrs. Thomas here so you can slap her thirty times in return?" Holley bit down harder on her lip, not knowing what to say. Deep down, she knew there was no way to get back at Mollie. She had no choice but to endure the humiliation. But she was still furious.

Stop callingover with these trivial issues!" Hearing that, Holley felt a new wave of anger crash over her. She sat up straighter, glaring at him. "You call this trivial? I was slapped thirty times, Baker! How can you stand there and act like it's nothing?" Baker crossed his arms, his gaze cold and accusatory. "If you hadn't concocted that insane schto inject Belinda with hormones, none of this would have happened!" Holley gasped, her expression tinged with disbelief. At that moment, she felt her anger reach its peak.
"Yes, it was my idea," she spat, her voice shaking. "But don't you dare pretend you were innocent! Without your silent approval, how could I have done that? You were the one who said that if we ruined Belinda's looks, she would look nothing like Carola, and it would prevent Carola from suspecting anything!"
Her voice rose to a piercing shriek, her fury bursting free. "And now that everything's falling apart, you dare to push all the blonto me?"
