Chapter 137:
Belinda recoiled as Kristopher reached out to her. “I didn’t sneak a picture of her,” she declared.
What was Cathy's problem?
Belinda couldn’t shake the feeling that associating with Cathy was just bad luck. Why would she deliberately
snap a photo of Cathy and leave it on her phone?
“But | saw it...” Cathy murmured, leaning against the bed and quietly wiping her tears. “Miss Nelson, | know I've
hurt you a lot today, and it wasn’t intentional... There was really no need for you to apologize and then sneakily
take an unflattering photo of me... My career is just getting off the ground, and | can’t have it destroyed over
something like this.”
Kristopher frowned deeply. “Delete the photo.”
Peering past Kristopher, Belinda studied Cathy's tear-streaked face.
Her sorrow seemed genuine, her words almost convincing.
Had Belinda not been the one wronged, she might have fallen for Cathy's act.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was clear now why Kristopher trusted her so much.
Taking a deep breath, Belinda fixed her gaze on Cathy's eyes. “Cathy, don’t push me,” she warned sternly.
“Miss Nelson, please...”
Cathy averted her eyes and wept. “Please, just delete that picture, okay?”
Belinda’s frustration surged at Cathy’s response.
Her eyes narrowed. “Cathy, I've been more than patient with you. Don’t test my limits!”

“You're the one crossing the line!”
Cathy's voice broke as she spoke, tears mingling with her words. “You've got it all wrong about Kristopher and
me, and now you're trying to wreck my career...”
Belinda felt her sanity fraying.
Was Cathy delusional?
She hadn't acted yet, but Cathy was already accusing her of foul play, twisting the truth!
In her anger, Belinda inhaled sharply and pulled her phone from her pocket. “You've brought this on yourself,
Cathy!”
If Cathy was going to provoke her this much, she wouldn't hold back. It was tKristopher saw Cathy's true
colors.
But as Belinda took out her phone, a man’s hand swiftly grabbed it.
Belinda froze, realization dawning.
It was all a ruse!
Cathy had set up this entire situation just to grab her phone and delete the recording while she had the chance!
And Belinda, baited by Cathy's words, had foolishly played into her hands.
As she thought about the situation, a mix of regret and anger swelled in Belinda’s heart. Fuming, she tried to
snatch her phone from Kristopher’s grasp. “I didn’t take a photo of her in secret! Givemy phone back!”
The difference in their heights posed a significant challenge.
Even when she jumped, Belinda couldn’t get anywhere near the phone in Kristopher’s raised hand.
He skillfully evaded her while entering a sequence of numbers into the phone.
For as long as Kristopher could remember, Belinda’s phone password had been his birthday.
But when he punched in the last digit, the phone didn’t unlock. Instead, it displayed a message: “Password
incorrect, please try again.”
Kristopher paused, his expression shifting to surprise as he looked down at Belinda. “Did you change the
password?”
“Yes.”
Belinda fixed her gaze on Cathy and reached out toward Kristopher again. “Give it back to me. I'll unlock it
myself and show you the photo | took!”
But Kristopher wasn’t convinced.
He continued to dodge her attempts to reclaim the phone, his eyebrows knitting together in suspicion. “Just tell
