RedNovelChapter 1202:
Since Devin had framed it that way, Belinda felt she couldn't refuse him outright.
“Alright,” she agreed, nodding. “Let's go to the cafeteria then.”
“Great,” Devin responded, his smile growing warmer.
Together, they headed towards the cafeteria at the Grand Plains General Hospital.
Unlike most hospital cafeterias, this one was renowned for its diverse selection and surprisingly delicious food.
It wasn't just the hospital staff who frequented it; many visitors and even patients’ families chere to eat.

“Dr. Wright, | really appreciate everything you did foryesterday. | don’t know what | would have done without
your help.” Devin’s voice carried genuine gratitude.
Only he truly understood the torment of the previous night.
From the moment he consumed that soup to the overwhelming effects taking hold, barely five minutes had
passed. It had been terrifying.
Belinda offered a soft smile. “Don’t mention it. We're friends, aren't we? When a friend is in trouble, you step in
to help. And really, it wasn’t a big deal.”
Devin let out a deep breath, shaking his head slightly. “Maybe to you, it wasn’t much of a big deal, but for me...”
He trailed off, his expression troubled.
Belinda hesitated for a moment before carefully phrasing her words. “About last night...”
She wanted to ask what had happened, but something made her pause. Was it really her place to probe?

Devin, however, seemed to pick up on her unspoken question. “Carmelita and Iliana were behind the matter.
They teamed up and drugged me.”
Belinda fell silent, a myriad of emotions flickering across her face. “Sounds absurd, doesn't it?”

Devin let out a dry chuckle, though his eyes reflected nothing but anguish.
Belinda understood what he was feeling all too well—the profound sting of betrayal by one’s own family.
She had been through something like this before, and she could truly empathize with Devin’s pain.
“You shouldn’t dwell on it,” Belinda said softly. “Speople aren't worth the pain.”
Regardless of the reasons behind Carmelita’s actions, the sheer cruelty of her betrayal was undeniable.
Drugging her own brother, in a public restaurant no less, was beyond forgivable.
What kind of person would do something like that?
For a moment, Belinda couldn’t even find the right words to describe the absurdity of Carmelita’s actions.
She could only say that Carmelita had lost her mind.
