His unwanted wife, the world’s coveted genius by Derk Blaylock




Chapter 1330:

Lucas' revelation prompted a cold chuckle from Johnson. "Baker, the kind of man who never acts without personal gain, went to such lengths for someone connected to Holley? He must genuinely love her."

Belinda remained quiet, her forehead creasing as her expression grew somber.

Lucas pressed his lips into a thin line before continuing. "I also looked into Niko's father, Timothy. He once resided in Ironwyn, but my findings show no link between him and Holley. As for this supposed life-saving debt Holley mentioned, there's no proof to support it."

"That's odd," Johnson said.

Belinda's face grew visibly more serious.

The circumstances pointed to several potential explanations.

Holley might be fabricating the story.

Or, the passage of time could have made it impossible for Lucas' investigators to unearth the truth.

Or, the connection between Timothy and Holley might be far more complicated than it seemed.

Johnson looked at Belinda and asked, "What's your perspective, Belinda?"

Lucas, too, fixed his attention on her, clearly valuing her input.

After a moment to gather her thoughts, Belinda spoke calmly. "I suspect there's more to Timothy's connection with my mother. My mother has never spoken to me about this supposed life-saving debt before. Honestly, this situation doesn't feel like she's trying to repay Timothy for saving her life; it feels more like Timothy has some kind of hold over her, pressuring her to comply."

After taking a deep breath, she added, "And Baker going to such extremes to assist Timothy? That doesn't sound like a simple repayment of a favor. Baker is known for acting only in his own interest. Would he really go out of his way just to help Holley settle a debt? I don't think so."

Of course, these were just her assumptions.

Johnson responded first, "I agree with Belinda. Holley and Baker don't strike me as the type to repay kindness out of pure goodwill." He then shot a glance at Belinda, his tone edged with irony. "Holley is manipulative enough to exploit her own daughter. Do you really think someone like that would bend over backward to repay a favor?"

Belinda fell silent, the remark hitting too close to home.

Lucas' eyes narrowed, his voice low and deliberate. "There's clearly more to this that we haven't uncovered."

Johnson suggested, "Should we question Timothy about the matter? See if we can pry something out of him?"

Lucas shook his head slightly. "Not yet. We don't have solid evidence. Even if we confronted Timothy now, he might not reveal anything useful. Let's keep investigating. If something suspicious turns up, we can question him then.”
