His unwanted wife, the world’s coveted genius

Chapter 541:

“I’ll check!” she said, pulling out her phone and scrolling through the recordings by date.

Though the brooch was small, its storage capacity was enormous.

There had to be a recording from that day.

“I found it!” Belinda exclaimed, locating the file and pressing play.

A moment later, a faint, panicked sound came through the phone’s speaker.

It was Belinda’s voice.

The man had been trying to cover her mouth at that time.

Belinda and the others listened intently…

The sounds then became muffled.

Belinda turned up the volume.

Suddenly, a loud bang echoed through the speaker.

After that, the audio became even more garbled.

It was either a faint hissing or crackling, with hardly any voices discernible.

“What’s going on?” Mollie asked, confused.

Belinda furrowed her brow, deep in thought.

After a brief pause, she suddenly remembered something.

She said, “That day, while I was changing clothes, my brooch fell to the floor, so I simply tossed it into my handbag.

When that man covered my mouth and nose with a towel, I threw my bag away while trying to break free.

So…

Nothing else was recorded.”

When Belinda finished speaking, disappointment was evident on Santino’s and the others’ faces.

Mollie suddenly remembered something and quickly asked, “Weren’t there two people who showed up and helped you call the police? Can they testify for you?”noveldrama

Belinda shook her head slightly. “By the time they arrived, the man had already fled.

They didn’t even see him, so they can’t testify for me.”

Mollie’s face fell again.

At that moment, Darren said, “When I got back just now, I saw Lucas’ car parked outside.

Did he just leave here or something?”

Belinda’s eyes flickered at his words.

Mollie, however, was incensed.

She slammed her palm on the coffee table and said, “He has the nerve to come here? I’ll go out and give him a piece of my mind!”

With that, she sprang up and stormed outside.
