Chapter 735:

Catherine remained silent, but her expression was dark.

Belinda seized the moment to say, “Catherine, letbe clear. If this dynamic between Leland and Hailee

doesn’t change, it will only be a matter of tbefore something happens between them.”

Catherine stayed quiet for a long moment before speaking softly. “Leland promisedlast night that he would

stop seeing Hailee from now on.”

Belinda and Bethany exchanged a look upon hearing that.

After a while, Bethany, cautious yet curious, broke the silence. “So, Catherine... Does that mean you've forgiven

Leland?”

Catherine nodded, her voice heavy. “I want to give my relationship with Leland one last chance,” she said, her

lips curling into a self-deprecating smile. “I know you might think I'm being too soft, too forgiving. But... Leland

and | have been together for so many years. He has always treatedwell. My feelings for him, they're not

something | can just let go of.”

Belinda leaned forward, her expression calm and understanding. “Catherine, you're wrong. We don’t think you

are too forgiving,” she said. Her tone softened as she continued, “Matters of the heart rarely make sense. You

know your feelings better than anyone. Like you said, you and Leland have been together for so many years, it's

not easy for you to walk away. And Leland promised he wouldn't see Hailee again. You wanting to give him one

last chance is completely understandable.”

Belinda’s expression grew serious. “But, Catherine, there’s something | need to say. Don’t take Leland’s promises

too seriously. He may say he won't see Hailee again, but if Hailee ends up in serious trouble, he'll still go to her.”

In this regard, Belinda truly had the right to speak. She spoke from experience. She recalled how Lucas had once

vowed not to see Verena again unless absolutely necessary. Yet, when Verena had attempted suicide, Lucas had

rushed to her side without hesitation.

Catherine needed to hear this. Leland’s words might hold sincerity at the moment, but they weren't unbreakable

vows. Belinda, being close friends with Johnson, genuinely hoped Catherine and Johnson could end up together.

But now that Catherine had a boyfriend, it wasn’t her place to push for a breakup. Besides, the matter wasn't

something Belinda could change by just interfering. Catherine had her own thoughts and would make her own

decisions.

Still, after hearing about Leland and Hailee, she felt that Catherine and Leland’s relationship wouldn't last long.

Their breakup seemed inevitable.

“I'll remember that,” Catherine said, nodding slightly.

After a brief pause, Catherine added, “By the way, when Hailee was on the phone with Leland today, crying

about getting her fingers broken by Lucas, Leland didn’t go to see her.”

“Wait a minute! What did you say about Lucas?” Bethany asked, confused.

Catherine blinked and then explained, “Well, according to Hailee, Lucas had someone bring her in for a ‘talk’ this

morning. And then, he broke three of her fingers on her left hand because she used those fingers to scratch
