Chapter 1097:
Verena's expression darkened as she said, “So it was you! Why would you do something like that?”
Although she had desperately wanted Belinda to be infected, she wanted it to be real.
A deception like this wouldn't last forever—it was bound to be uncovered. And whoever was responsible would
be at risk of exposure.
Taking such a reckless risk for a lie that couldn’t withstand scrutiny... It wasn’t worth it.
Kane, however, remained unfazed. “If Belinda had HIV, Lucas would leave her,” he stated matter-of-factly. “That
would finally give you a chance to be with Lucas, wouldn't it?”
But, of course, that wasn’t the only reason.

There was another hidden motive—one Kane chose not to reveal to Verena. If Belinda believed she was sick,
Darwin would have a chance to get close to her.
He could swoop in, offering her comfort, whispering reassurances, and promising her unconditional support.
In her weakest moment, Belinda would be vulnerable. And if Darwin played his cards right, he might really win
her heart.
Yet, what Kane hadn't expected was that despite everything, Lucas remained steadfast by Belinda’s side, his
unwavering devotion shining through even in the face of adversity. To make matters worse, Harold and Norma
also stood firmly behind Belinda, offering their unconditional support.
This made him really frustrated.
Listening to Kane's words, Verena felt utterly resigned.

She knew that Lucas loved Belinda so much that he was even willing to risk infection himself.
But Verena had deliberately kept this hidden from Kane.
She believed if Kane realized just how much Lucas cherished Belinda, he might begin to question her worth and
even consider her entirely useless.
That was not something she wanted.
“I don’t know how Belinda uncovered the truth, but she toldabout the matter today,” Verena said. “Lucas is
undoubtedly digging into this. Are you absolutely certain you covered your tracks? You must ensure that no trace
of evidence can lead back to you!”
Kane's voice remained calm. “Relax. There's nothing for them to find. | made sure of it. They won't be able to
link anything back to me.”
Verena exhaled, a fraction of her anxiety dissipating.

After exchanging a few more words with Kane, she ended the call.
That day, every employee at the Grand Plains General Hospital received an email.
The contents were shocking. The email confirmed that Belinda had never been infected with HIV. Her initial test
results had been falsified.
It turned out that Diego, the director of the Laboratory Department, had been bribed to tamper with Belinda’s
blood test results.
As a result, he was dismissed from his position and handed over to the authorities for legal action.
The email served as a stern warning—any medical personnel found engaging in similar misconduct would face
the sfate.
At the end of the email, a video file several hours long was attached.
Intrigued by its length, many employees clicked on the video, eager to know what it was about.
