Billionaire’s Pampered Wife

Under the pressure of A Country, it did not take long for B Country to finally release the people that they had arrested. Their Secretary of External Affairs, Habib Othman, had also fled abroad.

Larry was of great help with the soldier’s burials.

Bellamy and Stella invited Larry over for a meal before returning to A Country.

Stella busied herself in the kitchen while Larry and Bellamy chatted in the living room.

“Don’t mention anything about my past when she comes out later,” Bellamy ordered.

Larry was puzzled. “Why? You used to be a hero. She will love you more when she hears about it.”

“It’s fine. Let’s just not talk about it. If she asks how we met, you could just say that we knew each other in a mission,” Bellamy said. He did not want to say anything more.

“Sure,” Larry raised his glass and clinked it with Bellamy’s. He took a sip of wine and asked seriously, “How are you planning to deal with Sean? He’s not easy to deal with.”

Bellamy smiled, “We still have you, don’t we?”

Larry’s face suddenly darkened. “He killed my sister. I must make him pay.”

Stella came out of the kitchen with some grilled chicken shortly after. When she heard that last sentence from Larry, a strange light flashed in her eyes. She lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes blocking the conflicting emotions in her eyes.

After placing the grilled chicken on the table, Bellamy clutched her hand and said, “Thank you.”

“No problem. There are still two dishes left. It will be done in a while,” Stella said softly.

Bellamy released Stella’s hand reluctantly.

“When are you two going to get married?” Larry asked coyly.

“I want to give her a grand wedding once everything is settled. You know the current situation. There are people who want us dead. I couldn’t possibly let her be in danger,” Bellamy said cautiously.

Larry laughed and said, “I wanted to introduce my sister to you a long time ago. She would have been the happiest woman in the world if she had been with you. Unfortunately, she fell in love with that heartless Sean.”

“Sean is not heartless. I only found out recently that he has always had a woman whom he fancied. He has loved her for at least fifteen years.” Bellamy spoke the truth./

However, Sean had somehow become his enemy.

There was a murderous look in Larry’s eyes. “Who is it?”

“Eli Wayne. I heard that they were classmates back in school.”

“Eli Wayne?” Larry repeated. It seemed to strike a thought within him. He took out his phone, opened a photo, and showed it to Bellamy. “Take a look, is this her?”

It was a photo of Eli eating. Surprised, Bellamy asked, “Why do you have her photo?”

“She is the woman whom my uncle likes. My uncle even wanted to retire from office for her,” Larry said irritably as he withdrew his phone.

“That’s really an ill-fated relationship. Your sister likes Sean, Sean likes Eli, and if Eli likes your uncle, then things would be very interesting,” Bellamy sneered.

“It all makes sense now. My men did inform me that my uncle had gone to A Country. It must have been for Eli. I don’t know if Eli prefers Sean or my uncle more. But, if she likes my uncle, that would be a big blow to Sean,” Larry coyed.

“Who knows? Maybe she prefers your uncle. When I had a meal with Sean, Yvonne was acting to be all lovey-dovey with him, but Eli showed no signs of jealousy at all. She even ate happily. If she really does like Sean, she should have been jealous or angry,” Bellamy recalled.

“Indeed, I should let Sean experience what it is like to be unable to get something he wants. I will talk to my uncle later to know more about the situation.”

“Alright, cheers,” Bellamy raised his glass and clinked it with Larry’s again. He finished the rest of the wine in one gulp.

Stella came out of the kitchen with some soup and roast potato bacon.

She sat down next to Bellamy after serving the dishes on the table. She could smell the strong scent of alcohol.

“We’re heading back today, so you shouldn’t drink too much. If you get a headache, you’ll be the one who suffers,” Stella reminded gently.

“Alright, this will be my last glass. I won’t drink anymore,” Bellamy listened to Stella’s words.

He poured a glass for Larry, and another for himself.

Stella raised a glass of water and told Larry, “Thank you for saving us this time. I will use tea as a toast for you.”

“It’s fate,” Larry picked up his wine glass and took a big sip.

“Mr. James, just out of curiosity, do you know Samuel Chuck?” Stella asked nonchalantly.

Larry paused for a moment before glancing at Bellamy. “Yes, we know each other, but we’re not close. We rarely talk. Why?”

“Earlier, we were too busy with the burial of the soldiers. I have something to ask you. You fought with the people who had been trying to kill us for the longest time. Did they retreat without any casualties?” Stella asked suspiciously. Her eyes were focused on him, scouring for the slightest change of his expression.

“They were wearing helmets and bulletproof vests, so a lot of them should be injured,” Larry said vaguely.

“What about your men? Did they die from the injuries?” Stella asked.

Larry was a little displeased. “A lot of them are hurt. They aren’t dead, since we came prepared.”

“Which path did they use to retreat? Mr. James, do you still remember that?”

Larry frowned. “What are you insinuating, Miss Grace? Do you think that I’m colluding with others to try and frame Sean?”

Stella was calm. She put down the glass and said straightforwardly, “After all, you have the motive, right?”

“What motive do I have? Wasn’t I the one who saved you two?”

“You hate Sean. What if you and Samuel had worked together on purpose? You two are putting on a show to deliberately use Darren to frame Sean,” Stella said ruthlessly. Seeing the panic in Larry’s eyes, she became even more certain of her own judgment.

“I did see Darren amid the gunfight, and he is Sean’s man. When you go back, you could arrest him and question him accordingly. What’s the use of questioning me now?” Larry said coldly.

Stella tapped the table lightly as she observed him with her eyes fixated on him. “I suspect that you have killed Darren earlier on and got someone to impersonate him. Besides, Bellamy didn’t even see Darren. You are accusing Sean with just your words. You must be thinking that even if we realize that Darren is dead, we would still think that Sean was the one who killed him to keep his mouth shut.”

Larry’s face instantly turned pale.NôvelDrama.Org content.

Everything she said was spot on.

Samuel had sought him out the previous day and made a plan with him. Darren had already been killed by Samuel’s men last night.

Samuel’s grand plan was to kill Stella and frame Sean for it.

However, Bellamy had protected Stella so well that his men had no chance of attacking her at all.

“If you insist on being so suspicious of my intentions, then I have nothing else to say. Besides, these are all just speculations that you made. I’ll simply treat you as an ungrateful person. My apologies, I still have some matters to attend to. I will take my leave first,” Larry said as he stood up.

Stella leaned back on the chair calmly. She had already cast her judgments. “If I were you, I would explain in detail why I am not an accomplice, instead of leaving just like that.”
