NovelOnlineChapter 1598: Lucas shook his head, tightening his grip on her hand. “No. This wasn't something planned in advance. Think about it-our spontaneous trip to Mount Tuky, Faye sneaking out in the middle of the night, the security guard spotting her, the manager contacting us directly... It's too chaotic, too unpredictable to plan for. Even if someone bribed the manager or others involved, how could they have foreseen that you and I would split up to look for Faye?" He looked straight at Belinda. "They couldn't. This means it probably wasn't planned in advance. The most likely explanation is that it was an impulsive action. Someone seized an opportunity—acted on the spot.” Clearly, Lucas had already analyzed the situation thoroughly.
Belinda was left speechless because his thoughts matched her own suspicions.

Do they harbor such venomous hatred toward me? Do they truly wish for my death?" Lucas offered a solemn nod, his expression darkening with shared confusion. "Yes, that's the exact mystery that has been consuming my thoughts relentlessly." Belinda gave him a gentle smile, though concern flickered behind her eyes. "Well, since we cannot unravel this puzzle tonight, let's stop torturing ourselves with it. I doubt this riddle will surrender its secrets overnight. Let's set it aside for now. It's getting late—take a relaxing shower and get srest.” Lucas gazed at Belinda, remaining silent. After what felt like an eternity, he released a heavy sigh that seemed to carry the weight of unspoken thoughts. "Alright." Once he disappeared into the bathroom, Belinda's eyes narrowed with calculated thoughtfulness, her mind dissecting the meaning behind Lucas's silence. She wondered whether his reluctance to speak stemmed from a realization that had suddenly crystallized in his mind, and whether the person or situation he had thought of bore any connection to Faye.
After absorbing Lucas's investigation results, Belinda felt her suspicion toward Faye deepen. The security guards who searched for Faye checked out clean, and Kylee was not a suspect either, which only increased the possibility that Faye orchestrated all this.
But Belinda decided not to share these thoughts with Lucas for now.

Belinda returned to work at the hospital. After changing into her white coat, she embarked on her morning rounds with renewed purpose. After completing thorough examinations of all her patients, she finally entered Barbara's hospital room.

Nalani stepped forward with evident concern etched across her features.
"Dr. Wright, your colleaguementioned that you required sick leave yesterday. How are you feeling now? I can see your forehead is injured. How did that happen?"
Belinda offered a reassuring smile and explained, "I accidentally struck ΟΠΙ my head on something and sustained a mild concussion. To be safe, I gave myself an extra day of rest, but I'm fine now."
