Chapter 78 Susan hadn't wanted to address Belinda as "Mom," but she had no choice. She had to swallow her pride in order to get into the ward.
"I'm sorry for neglecting Lily. I'm really trying to compensate her for that. What I said that day was said out of a fit of anger. She's still my daughter, after all." Inside the ward, Belinda heard the commotion outside.

After a moment's hesitation, she got out of bed and opened the door to the ward.
She looked at the crowd of people gathered outside, then said to the bodyguards, "Thanks for your work. You can let them in. I know them." The bodyguards glanced at each other before letting Julia and the others in. However, as soon as they got in, one of the bodyguards called Loid.
"Mr. Laurier, speople from the Martinez family are here to visit Ms. Brooks's grandmother. Madam Hutchinson allowed them inside. I couldn't stop them." "Alright." Loid hung up immediately after that.

Anyone who didn't know better would've been fooled by her kind expression. “Just letknow if you need anything. I'll help you in way I can."

Belinda gave her a look, a faint smile on her face. "Mrs. Martinez Senior, what do you want? You can't be here just to visit me, judging by how many people you brought. Just say what you want straight." Julia stiffened, but her expression didn't change. "Sharp as ever, Belinda. Yes, we're here because we have a favor to ask of you." She fell silent for a moment before continuing, "We'd like to ask if you could convince Lily to allow Shannon to go back to Anmer Heights." "Sorry, I can't help you with that. This is Lily's own decision to make. Plus, Anmer Heights doesn't belong to Lily. She can't decide that either," Belinda said, her expression grave.

"You're Lily's grandmother. She'll listen to you. She just has to talk to Laid and it be done," Julia said with a smile. "Sorry, I can't help you." Belinda didn't want to continue talking to her anymore, so she said bluntly, "I need to rest. Please leave now."
