PopularNovelChapter 1369: The moment Holley laid eyes on them, the blood drained from her face. A chilling sense of dread gripped her; she knew that whatever was in that syringe was meant for her.
"Ms. Lewis," Gordon said politely, his tone light, almost gentle, "no need to be afraid. This won't harm you physically. It's merely a hormone. Harmless... Though you may find yourself putting on a bit of weight." Holley's knees buckled as a wave of sheer horror coursed through her.
Baker's breath caught. He turned to Lucas, eyes wide, stunned speechless.
He had expected retaliation, but not like this.

Holley broke down. Tears gushed from her eyes as she sobbed and pleaded, "Please, Mr. Clark! I'm begging you! I was wrong, I swear; I'll apologize to Belinda. I'll go to her right now! Just don't do this to me!" But Lucas didn't so much as glance her way. His eyes remained half-closed, his fingers continuing their slow, rhythmic motion over his temple.
One of the bodyguards stripped Holley's coat from her shoulders, exposing her arm.
"No! Please don't! Letgo! Help! Somebody help me. Baker! Baker, help me!" Holley's screams echoed through the room, raw and frantic.
The two bodyguards restrained Holley with such force that she couldn't even move.
She could only stare in horror as the needle drew closer to her skin.
When Baker saw this, his face twisted with a blend of fear and panic. He longed to intervene, but deep down, he knew his efforts would be futile.
The only one who could save Holley was Lucas.
Baker whipped his head around, his bloodshot eyes boring into Lucas. "She's Belinda's mother! Mr. Clark, aren't you afraid Belinda will hate you when she learns of this?" At these words, Lucas finally opened his eyes, his face calm.
He raised his gaze lazily, giving Baker a brief, dismissive look. A faint smirk, tinged with mockery and contempt, curved his lips. "That's my concern, not yours, Mr. Wright." As Lucas spoke, Gordon began sterilizing Holley's arm.

The contents of the syringe flowed into Holley's body, little by little.
Tears cascaded down her cheeks.
The thought of gaining weight, of losing her beauty, was unbearable. She was well aware of the harm hormones could cause.
Never had she imagined that one day, this toxic substance would be forcibly injected into her body.
After a while, Gordon approached Lucas and reported deferentially, "Mr. Clark, today's dose has been administered."
