Chapter 776 Why Did He Have To Snoop Around To See His Wife?
"Don''t worry. Someone has already dealt with him, and I''ve forced him to apologize. I''m sure this kind
of thing will never happen again." Sitting on the edge of the bed with a look of concern on his face, he
asked, "Are you all right? How are you feeling?"
Belle was confused, not quite understanding the meaning of Steffan''s words. Looking at the guilt on his
face, she smiled and said, "Don''t worry, I''m fine. I just slept for a while."
"That''s good." Steffan felt that he could rx atst. He reached out and held Belle''s cold hand. "If you

don''t feel well, I''ll call the doctor over. Your health is the most important thing. Don''t take it for granted."
Belle gave an easy smile, lifted the quilt, and got down from the bed. Then, she took a few steps
around the room.
"Look, don''t I seem just fine? I''m really all right. Let''s go back."
She picked up her handbag that was on the bed and was about to leave.
Steffan looked very worried, "No, I''ll be worried about you if you just go back like this. Stay at the
hospital tonight and let the doctors observe your condition."
Belle was unwilling to stay overnight at the hospital. She immediately refused and was adamant about
wanting to leave. After carefully considering what the doctor had told him earlier, Steffan decided that it
should be fine for her to leave. He took out his phone and yed the video of Melvin''s apology.
Belle looked at Melvin''s swollen face in the video and listened to his desperate apology. Suddenly, she
had the urge tough.
Steffan put his phone away and helped Belle out of the hospital. It was cold and windy outside. Belle,
who was only in her evening gown, shrank back as a gust of cold wind blew. She had always been
sensitive to the cold and she let out a sneeze. Steffan stood next to her and felt her shivering. He
reached out to hold Belle''s hand tightly and said in amanding tone, "Dory, the weather''s too cold.
You''reing home with me today. Don''t go back to the dormitory."
Belle smiled and shook her head. She wrapped her clothes around her tightly and walked out quickly.
"Steffan, it''s really not necessary. It''ste. Go back and have a rest." Belle said as she shook her head,
refusing his offer. As she walked towards the car, she asked, "If there''s nothing tomorrow morning, I''d
like to take a half-day rest. What do you think?"
It was a cold and windy night in the middle of winter.
"All right then," Steffan replied in a resigned tone, knowing that there was no point in arguing with her.
Once Belle had made up her mind, he had little chance of changing it.
In the car, Steffan started the engine and turned on the heating to the highest setting.
"Dory, if you don''t want to go back to my house, I''ll help you get a room at a hotel. How about it? The
weather is too cold and there''s no heating in the dormitory. Your delicate body won''t be able to take it."
Steffan suggested as he looked at the white frost on the leaves outside the car window.
"It''s really not necessary, Steffan. Just send me back to the dormitory. I still want to rest for half a day
tomorrow." Belle replied firmly, not wanting to dwell on the matter further.
After everything that she had been through that night, she felt quite weak. Since she fell into the water,
she had been afraid of the cold. She had to go back to the dormitory. That was her home and she
would only be able to feelfortable there. She wouldn''t be able to sleep well at a hotel.
Steffan smiled bitterly. He had no choice but to send her back to the dormitory.
Under a big tree near the dormitory, a ck luxury car was parked in the darkness. Hearing the sound
of a car outside, Calvin asked Aron, who was beside him, in a deep voice, "Who is it, Aron? Is she
back?"
After they had driven along the main streets a few times, Aron had been sure that they wouldn''t find the
car they were looking for.
Calvin couldn''t set his mind at rest after seeing Belle faint. He didn''t even have a clue how she was
doing in Srirano. There were too many doubts in his heart. He couldn''t calm down, and he just wanted
to find her.
Aron nced at Calvin, who seemed to have lost all sense of reason. He knew that if he didn''t find
Belle tonight, he wouldn''t be able to sleep.
Belle was missing. There was only one usible exnation, which was that she had been taken away
by Steffan.
He had called Maloney immediately and asked her to send someone from Yintern Group to find out
about Belle''s whereabouts in detail.
He knew that she usually stayed at the dormitory.
That was why they hadn''t moved, waiting for her to appear.
When Calvin first learned that Belle lived in this simple and crude dormitory, his heart was filled with
both sadness and surprise.
He felt sad because Belle, who had a hard life, had been wandering in a foreign country all alone. On
the other hand, he was pleasantly surprised that she would stay in a dormitory, which meant that she
was not Steffan''s girlfriend as others said.
No matter what, the girlfriend of a bigpany''s president wouldn''t live in such a simple dormitory.
This wouldn''t suit Steffan''s status. Belle could live in such a simple dormitory without fear of hardships,
which indicated that Belle still maintained her original habits even after being dealt a heavy blow, which
was the most gratifying thing for him.
The thought pacified Calvin''s uneasiness.
It was not until the car carrying Belle appeared at the door of the dormitory that he perked up his ears.
Sure enough, Belle wouldn''t stay out at night. That pleased him.
However, when he recalled how she had fainted, Calvin started to panic. "How is she?"
Aron''s eyes were fixed on the car. When he heard Calvin''s question, he immediately replied, "Don''t
worry, Mr. Harvey. There should be nothing wrong with Madam''s body. She must have just drunk some
sedative that Melvin gave her. That kind of drug will break down and be digested by the body. She''ll be
fine in a few hours."
Aron was a free spirit who liked to travel, so he inevitably knew of the little tricks of this tainted world.
He immediately consoled Calvin.
Soon, Belle opened the door and stepped out of the car.
Calvin understood Aron''s exnation, but he was impatient with worry. He moved to open the car door
and rush towards Belle.
"Don''t rush, Mr. Harvey. There are paparazzi secretly taking pictures." Aron''s sharp eyes immediately
picked up the two silhouettes not far away.
Holding cameras in their hands, it was obvious that they were the paparazzi.
After all, Srirano was a small country. The people were simple and unsophisticated, and rather isted.
These paparazzi wouldn''t dare to take photos openly. After Melvin''s birthday banquet, there must be a
lot of surprising news that the tabloids could make a story out of. Among the hottest news would be
Steffan and Belle, as well as Melvin''s injury.
The paparazzi would never give up on such a big story, so they tracked him all the way here in the
middle of the night.
If Calvin got out of the car now, he would definitely lose control of his emotions when he saw Belle. It
would be worse with Steffan around. The situation could get out of control.
Furthermore, Belle didn''t know what was going on right now. Before she had a clear idea of what was
going on, it would be unwise to act rashly and risk drawing unwanted attention in the news. As such,
Aron acted rationally by restraining Calvin.
Calvin''s face darkened when he heard that there was paparazzi tracking them.
Why did he have to snoop around to see his wife? Calvin fumed.
However, for the sake of Belle''s reputation and to avoid any furtherplications, he had no choice but
to restrain himself.
Belle got out of the car along with Steffan.
