She cast a fleeting, venomous glare at Mollie and Belinda, her expression twisted with hatred. She tried to hurl insults, but her mouth produced only garbled fragments.
Mollie turned away. "Belinda, let's go." Belinda gave a curt nod, not sparing Holley another glance, and followed Mollie out. After a few steps, Mollie paused, as if struck by a thought.

Once they stepped out of Holley's hand into the elevator, Belinda gently took Mollie's hand, inspecting it. Mollie's palm was red and slightly swollen, a clear sign of the force she had unleashed on Holley.
"Mollie, is your hand okay?" Belinda asked, concern in her voice.
Mollie glanced at her palm and laughed lightly. "It stings, but it felt so good slapping Holley just now!" She took a deep breath, her gaze settling on Belinda, a mix of emotions in her eyes. "You can't imagine how enraged I was when I heard the full story! It's unthinkable that a mother could be so cruel and vicious to her own child." Mollie's voice trembled with fury. "You're her daughter, her own blood. How could she have done something so monstrous to you? To treat her own child like that... It's unthinkable." Her chest heaved as her anger surged. She was livid.
Mollie had always longed for a child of her own, as she had never experienced motherhood herself. She considered Belinda as her daughter. Learning how Holley had treated Belinda ignited a fire in her that burned fiercely.
Her eyes reddened as she reached out, clasping Belinda's hand tightly. With a voice thick with emotion, she said, "Don't let Holley's words wound you. From now on, Santino and I are your parents.
