Chapter 1370:
“Alright,” Lucas replied with a slight nod.
Holley’s and Baker’s expressions shifted dramatically.
What did Gordon mean by “today’s dose”?
Holley blinked. Did this mean that they would be injecting hormones into her body daily from now on?
The mere thought drained the color from her face.
Her strength seemed to evaporate, and she crumpled to the floor.
Lucas’ frigid gaze swept over Holley before settling on Baker.
A subtle smile played on his lips. “Don’t even consider sending Holley away. If she doesn’t get her daily doses, your company…” Lucas let the sentence trail off.
His smile was disarmingly charismatic, yet his words carried a bone-chilling cruelty.
Both Holley’s and Baker’s faces turned pale.
The threat in Lucas’ words was evident.
If Holley disappeared, Lucas would retaliate against the Wright Group without mercy.
“Mr. Clark—” Holley attempted to plead again, but before she could finish, Lucas stood from the couch and strode out of the meeting room.
“Mr. Clark!”
“Mr. Clark…”
Holley’s and Baker’s desperate cries for leniency echoed, but Lucas ignored them completely.
After being ejected from the building, Holley immediately broke into sobs and turned to Baker. “Baker, what do we do now?”
Baker’s expression was somber as he responded, “Our only option is to find Belinda. If she forgives you and pleads with Lucas on your behalf, he’ll surely let you off.”

Holley considered this and nodded in agreement. “Yes, yes, let’s go see Belinda right away!”
Without hesitation, Baker climbed into his car with Holley and sped toward Belinda’s place.
Holley and Baker spent the entire drive nervously strategizing about how to approach Belinda and beg for her forgiveness. Yet, they hadn’t anticipated facing an obstacle so soon.
They couldn’t even gain entry to Belinda’s place.
No matter how persistently they pressed the doorbell, the house remained eerily silent, with no one answering the door.
They considered phoning Belinda, but she had already blocked both of their numbers.
Holley attempted to call Gwenda, but Gwenda ignored her calls as well. With no other options, Holley dialed Gwenda’s number again using Baker’s phone.
After what seemed like endless ringing, Gwenda finally answered the call. “Hello?”
Hearing Gwenda’s voice, Holley rushed to speak. “Mom, it’s me!” The moment Gwenda recognized her voice, she fell silent.
