Inside the luxurious presidential suite, it was as warm as spring.
Belle had been brought to the suite by Calvin. The warmth enveloped her, melting the coldness deep in her heart little by little.
She wasn't used to staying in such an upscale hotel, but at this moment, she felt an unprecedented sense of calm. Everything seemed to feel right and natural.
The feeling was extremely shocking to her!
"Belle, stay here for the time being. I'll bring you to buy a new set of clothes tomorrow." Calvin approached her, his voice gentle.
Even though Belle was surrounded by so much luxury, her mind was still clear.
"Mr. Harvey, that doesn't make any sense. I can't stay here," she said calmly.
"Doesn't make sense?" Calvin sneered. "If things made sense, we would be making love to each other on this bed right now."
Belle didn't expect him to speak so explicitly, her face flushed immediately.
"Mr. Harvey, even if I really am your wife, that's just your side of the story for now. I may have lost my memory, but that doesn't mean that I'll trust a man so easily. I'll look into what happened in the past myself. I'm sure that once I find out everything, the truth will prevail." Belle had no intention of moving into this gorgeous presidential suite just like that. She couldn't afford it and she didn't want to owe him any favors.
"You don't need to look into it. I'll tell you. I have a way of slowly helping you to remember everything about us." He came closer again, his presence overbearing. Such was the strength of a man compared to a woman. It was absolutely dangerous!
Belle didn't want to get involved with a man she barely knew.
Based on her keen observation, there seemed to be something wrong with Calvin's vision. If that was the case, then there was still hope for her to escape.
She reached out her hand and waved it in front of him. Seeing that he didn't react, she said kindly, "Mr. Harvey, why don't you get some rest first? I need to use the restroom."
With that, she sneaked a glance at him and started tiptoeing towards the door.
Although there was something wrong with Calvin's eyes, he was still able to see vaguely. When Belle waved her hands in front of him, the ring on her hand had caught the light and flashed before his eyes. This would be too easy!
He sensed her breathing moving towards the door. Smirking, he rushed over to her and grabbed her arm.
"Does that mean that you're leaving?" He demanded to know with some resentment. This d*mned woman actually tried to trick him!
After getting caught, Belle resigned herself to her bad luck and spoke with an air of righteousness.
"Mr. Harvey, it's impossible for me to live here for no reason. It's not my style."
"Really?" Calvin chuckled softly. "It's not my style to let you go either. I would tell you that you're staying here for a reason. If we were to form some kind of relationship between us, would you be more at ease with the idea of staying here?"
As he said this, he grabbed Belle's wrist with his big hand and with a little tug, Belle fell into his arms.
Belle fell backwards and her back hit his chest. It was hard. Even through the layers of clothes, his skin seemed to burn her.
Uneasiness flooded her and she panicked, struggling to break free from his grip. "Mr. Harvey, please don't. Please respect my wishes and let me go."
