Chapter 1346: The more she thought about it, the angrier and more desperate she became.

At noon, Lucas drove to the hospital to pick up Belinda, and they headed to the Happer Restaurant together. When they reached the private dining room, Johnson and Catherine were already waiting inside.

After Belinda and Lucas settled into their chairs, Johnson broke the silence. "Holley paida visit at the office today. She was pleading forto release Niko." Belinda and Lucas exchanged a quick look after hearing that. A sharp, derisive glint flickered in Belinda's eyes. Johnson continued, "I pressed her to see if she would confess; I asked if Timothy was holding something over her. She denied it, but I saw the unease in her eyes." He paused, then turned to Belinda with a quiet sigh. "It's obvious now. Timothy's got skind of leverage on Holley." Belinda went quiet, her expression unreadable.

After a long moment, she spoke. "Yesterday, my grandmother mentioned that Holley has been trying to contact her repeatedly, asking to meet. But my grandmother has refused to see her. I suspect Holley's hoping to enlist her help." Belinda let out a bitter chuckle, her gaze cold. "Holley's desperation only makes her look more suspicious. It's likely Timothy set a deadline for her to free his son, and with trunning out, she's getting anxious. She had no choice but to turn to Johnson." Her words left a heavy silence hanging over the room.

Lucas, who had stayed quiet until now, spoke up. "Gordon briefedon Timothy's background today." All eyes turned to him.

"There's something suspicious about Timothy," Lucas said. A sudden smile crossed his face as he glanced at Belinda. "Turns out, he's friends with Lamont." Belinda's eyes widened in shock.

Originally at Jal[Lamont? The nhit her like a jolt; she knew it all too well.

"Who's that?" Johnson and Catherine exchanged confused glances.

Lucas spoke with measured calm. "You recall the abnormal hormone levels in Belinda's medical tests? When she was young, Holley and her grandmother took her to a local hospital for an evaluation. The doctor who reviewed her case was Lamont. He insisted her results were fine, claiming her weight gain was just a normal part of growing up, nothing to be concerned about." As he concluded, Johnson's and Catherine's faces changed, the weight of the revelation sinking in.

"So, you're suggesting Lamont might have been paid to lie back then?” Catherine asked. Johnson's brow creased. "Where's Lamont now? Have you managed to track him down?"

"He's dead," Lucas answered. He then gave a concise overview of the M investigation into Lamont.

Johnson's eyes widened, his expression growing grave. "I see.

Since Timothy is close to e Lamont, he could know who paid Lamont off.

And with his current connection to Holley, it's highly likely she was the one who bribed Lamont."
