Noticing that, Belinda suddenly becnervous.
Swallowing hard, she nodded. "Alright. What do you want to know?" "Did Holley do something again?" Kenia's voice was laced with unease as she studied Belinda's expression, her eyes probing for any hint of confirmation.

"Yeah," Belinda said, nodding firmly.
Only then did Kenia seem to relax. A long sigh escaped her lips. "It's just that... these past few days, Holley has been contactingmore often than usual. She keeps saying she wants to csee me. I don't know... I have this gut feeling she has another motive." Belinda couldn't help but chuckle at that. Clearly, Kenia knew her daughter well.

She walked over and opened it, only to find Johnson standing outsiden Her eyes flickered with surprise. "Johnson? Is there anything you need?" Without a word, Johnson stepped inside and quietly shut the door behind him.
"Were you hurt?" he asked directly, his eyes scanning Gatherine carefully, his voice low with concern.
Catherine froze for a beat, then realized what had happened-Zoie ΟΠΙ must have told Johnson about what had occurred, about how Niko's father had confronted her, and how he had even tried to hold her hostage.
