Chapter 452 Don''t You Love Me Anymore?


    "Belle, let''s go back. I can''t let you drink anymore, Sergio said gently. He held back his desire for her


    and reached out his arms to carry her out of the blue. "


    "No, I want to drink. Please, give me the wine. Belle was drunk and no longer had control over her


    actions. She had drunk away her sorrows and she no longer remembered what had happened. All she


    wanted was to drink to her heart''s content. Hence, she punched and kicked him as she shouted at the


    top of her lungs."


    Sergio raised the wine bottle in his hand and threw it into the river. He carried her with both arms and


    headed straight for the car.


    Let her go. A booming voice rang from behind.


    Sergio was stunned when he heard the voice. He stopped in his tracks and was about to turn around.


    "With a thud, someone punched him in the face. In an instant, Sergio felt dizzy and there was a burning


    sensation on his cheeks. "


    A pair of strong arms snatched away the woman in his arms and the person warned him in a harsh


    voice. "How dare you do this to her? You really are courting death."


    Sergio steadied himself and Calvin''s face appeared in front of him. He was seething with anger.


    "Sergio, what exactly are you up to? Belle is my wife. What exactly are you trying to do? Calvin shook


    with fury and bellowed at the top of his lungs. "


    He received a call from Rosa saying that Belle had returned. Rosa told him that Belle was aware of his


    affair and was looking everywhere for him. She said that Belle had already run out of thepany.


    His heart sank and he almost passed out when he heard the news.


    "D*mn. If Belle knew what he had done, what would happen... He did not dare to think about it. "


    "He did not expect Belle to return so soon. He thought that she would spend at least a week abroad.


    However, she returned only after three days. "


    Why did she have toe back so quickly? Immense sorrow clouded his eyes and he thought silently


    to himself.


    "He did not have any time to ponder over this matter. Flustered, he spun around and dashed out of the


    office. "


    "He searched high and low for her but to no avail. Hence, he thought of this ce by the riverside. "


    "He recalled that she had once be drunk over here when she was in distress. As a result,


    misfortune had almost befallen her when she encountered two scoundrels. The thought crossed his


    mind and he was on tenterhooks. "


    "He dashed right over to have a look. Surely enough, she was there. However, Sergio was there as


    well. In fact, he was carrying her. "


    Fury swelled inside him at the sight of Sergio.


    How dare he carry Belle in his arms? He had gone overboard.


    Fury surged through him and he dashed over to punch him in the face.


    "What do I n to do? Sergio rubbed his cheeks, which was swollen from the punch, and sneered. He


    asked sternly, ""Calvin, you know that she is your wife. What have you done to her?""  "


    What had he done? His eyelids drooped but he did not utter a word.


    "Since you can''t give her happiness and are unable to protect her, you don''t have the right to say


    something like that. Sergio sniggered and jeered. "


    Calvin clenched his fists as he hugged Belle tightly. He used so much force that his knuckles turned


    white.


    "Calvin, you''re here. Belle felt the familiar sense of warmth as she breathed in his familiar scent. It put


    her at ease. Even though she was drunk and could not think straight, she could still recognize at once


    that it was Calvin. She then hugged him tightly and cried, ""Calvin, are you abandoning me? Have you


    fallen for another woman?""  "


    "She pounded on his chest as tears streamed down her cheeks. Her tears soon soaked his suit.


    However, she was still wailing in agony."


    Calvin thought of the decision he had made that morning and felt a stab in his heart. His heart ached so


    terribly for her that he could barely speak due to the pain.


    "He hugged her tightly and neither answered her, nor did hefort her."


    I warn you. She is my wife. Please stay away from her in the future. I bet you know how immoral this is


    and how it will impact your reputation if people know that you are trying to snatch my wife from me.


    Calvin''s expression darkened as he gnashed his teeth and bellowed at Sergio. He shot him a withering


    stare and his eyes zed murderously.


    "He knew very well what was on Sergio''s mind. He was aware that Sergio liked Belle and wanted her to


    be his wife. However, Belle was his wife. How infuriating! How dare he insult him. "


    "To his annoyance, Sergio onlyughed and sneered. ""Calvin, take care of her. Don''t you dare


    betRhys her. If you do, I will be more than happy if she chooses me instead."" "


    "After saying this, he gave Calvin a wry smile and said, ""Remember to hand over the evidence as


    soon as possible. My superiors are bing impatient."" "


    "Upon finishing the sentence, he smirked and did not look at them anymore. He then turned around


    and left. "


    Calvin''s expression darkened and it was apparent that he was smoldering with resentment. He


    clenched his teeth and tried his best to restrain himself.


    "After tightening his grip around Belle, who was still sobbing in his arms, he hugged her tightly as he


    walked towards the Hummer. "


    The car pulled over and he headed straight for Harvey Manor.


    "Perhaps she was too drunk or perhaps she was just exhausted, Belle soon fell asleep in the back


    seat."


    The sunlight streamed in through the window. The room was flooded with warm and golden sunlight.


    "Calvin stood by the bed and stared at Belle who was fast asleep. Her brows were furrowed and it was


    apparent that she was in distress, even in her dreams. "


    "Her breathing was ragged and her shirt was soaked with sweat and alcohol. It pressed against her


    chest, exposing her breasts. Her skin was rosy, probably due to the alcohol and it looked very delicate


    and tender. "


    Calvin nced at her and a look of anguish crossed his face. He caressed her face gently and wiped


    away her tears as he smoothed over her brows with his hand.


    "Belle, don''t worry. I will try my best to protect you. I will never let you go to jail or hurt you."


    "Keep in mind that no matter what happens, you must be strong and take good care of Jerry. "


    He bent down and unbuttoned her shirt.


    "Don''t, don''t go, don''t leave me! Suddenly, Belle cried in her dream. She reached out her hand to hold


    his hand and murmured anxiously."


    "As soon as her hand met his, she seized it and held it tightly as she ced it against her chest. She


    then turned around and dozed off. "


    "Hearing her desperate pleas and cries of agony, Calvin allowed her to clutch tightly to his hand. His


    heart ached terribly and he gasped in pain. "


    "Belle, wake up. Your clothes are wet. You have to change. You will catch a cold if you sleep in this


    state, he said gently in a low voice. There was affection in his tone. "


    "No, I don''t want you to leave, Belle mumbled and tightened her grip. Her muscles tensed and she was


    not going to let go of him. "


    A faint smile touched the corners of his lips and he looked at her affectionately.


    He could only reach out his arms to carry her to the bathroom.


    "His suit was soaked with her tears and sweat as well. In fact, he was in far more distress to see her in


    agony. "


    "Belle, be a good girl. I''ll clean you up first, okay? Behave yourself. Once the bathtub was filled with


    water, he unbuttoned her shirt and carried her into the bathtub. He then slowly pushed her hand


    away.  "


    "Immersed in the warm water, Belle felt increasingly uneasy and stretched out her arms to wrap them

    around his waist. "


    Calvin chuckled and grabbed a towel as he began to clean her up.


    The rising temperature woke Belle up. She became sober in an instant and her eyes widened in


    surprise.


    "Calvin''s athletic figure appeared before her. His muscles were flexing as he supported her with his


    strong arm to prevent her from drowning in the water, as he wiped her body with a towel by using the


    other hand. "


    Belle was stunned for a while and stared at him. She was barely awake and stared at him without


    uttering a word.


    "Sensing her gaze, Calvin turned to look at her. His eyes were clear and bright."


    "Are you awake? he asked gently. However, he continued wiping her body gently and carefully. He was


    being extremely patient and focused."


    "Belle felt the warmth of his skin against hers and looked down in surprise. To her dismay, she was


    naked. Calvin had removed her clothes. She flushed scarlet in embarrassment and reached out to hold


    his hand as she nced at him. "


    Calvin was looking at her as well. His eyes were clear and moist. There was no desire in his eyes.


    "Belle''s heart sank. She was his wife, yet he was not aroused in front of her although she was naked.


    Had Liya satisfied his desire in the past few days when she was away? "


    "Feeling crestfallen, she demanded him. ""Calvin, have you betRhysed me?"" "


    Her voice was hoarse and it was filled with sorrow. A look of anguish crossed her face and she stared


    straight at him without blinking her eyes.


    Calvin''s muscles tensed and he could not bear to look at her. He lowered his head and pulled her hand


    away before he immersed himself in the water and hugged her tightly. He didn''t say anything for a long


    time.


    "Belle panicked when she did not get a response. She raised her head as tears welled up in her eyes.


    She poked his chest and asked, ""Calvin, tell me. Don''t you love me anymore? Have you fallen for


    another woman? Tell me! I want you to tell me yourself."" "


    "She didn''t mention Liya''s name as she did not wish to make him feel ashamed. She just hoped that he


    could tell her the truth. If he really did have an affair with Liya, she would forgive him as long as he was


    honest about it and promised not to repeat his mistakes. After all, he was Jerry''s father. "


    "Despite the rising temperature, the atmosphere was tense. "


    Belle''s breathing grew ragged.


    "Calvin''s handsome features were filled with distress as he caressed her gently. He whispered into her


    ears and said, ""Belle, I will always love you. Please remember this. No matter what I do, it''s for your


    sake. Please believe me.""  "


    What did he mean by that? His answer was so vague. Was he hinting that his feelings for her had


    already changed? Or did he mean something else? She could not wrap her head around it.


    It had only been a few days.


    "All of a sudden, she was filled with despair and only wanted to cry. "
