NovelOnlineChapter 1259: Belinda walked over to the center of the room and sat across from Galen.
"Ah, you're here," Galen said coolly. "Would you like something to drink?" "No, thank you," Belinda said. “Just say what you need to say." Galen suddenly smiled. "You've got sskills." Belinda's eyes narrowed slightly. She didn't quite understand what he meant.

Isn't that enough proof of your skills?" Belinda's eyes flickered. “So, did you callhere to confront me?" she asked.
"You say that as if I don't have the right to do so," Galen said.
"Of course you don't," Belinda retorted without hesitation. "You know perfectly well why Lucas went after your precious granddaughter. He simply gave her a taste of her own medicine. She only has herself to blame!" Belinda's expression was cold and unyielding as she spoke.
"How dare you!" Galen slammed his palm against the table, his expression turning fierce.
But Belinda didn't flinch in the slightest. She didn't even blink-she stared Galen in the eye and said nothing. Galen gritted his teeth.
They were locked in a tense stare-down for a couple of minutes.

Galen straightened in his seat. “I don't like you at all, Belinda. Your existence—and your mother's—is a profound humiliation to my daughter. And now, you've even brought suffering to my granddaughter!" A cruel glint appeared in his eyes. "You should consider yourself lucky that you have Lucas on your side. Otherwise..." Otherwise, he would make Belinda pay dearly!
An icy sneer flickered across Belinda's striking features, iñ O M response to Galen's words.
"I couldn't care less whether you likeor not," she said dismissively.
After a pause, she continued, "You are the reason why someone as despicable as Kylee has turned out the way she has. She is clearly the m one who made mistakes, yet she blames everyone else instead of reflecting on her actions. She always plays the victim, as if she can do no wrong. That's absurd! And about what you said just now..... Just because I'm from an ordinary background without powerful connections, I deserve to be bullied and manipulated by her? That is not fair at all." Belinda spoke with cutting clarity.
She truly loathed Galen's tone and attitude toward her.
