Stuck with My CEO Hubby Chapter 76: Suspicion
Jex was right; he had easier access to Calvin's office than Fiona did. Relying solely on Fiona's information would leave Bella sitting idly in the café, only able to spy on Calvin during lunch breaks and after work. If Calvin went out, Fiona might not be able to inform Bella immediately, but Jex could.The elevator stopped on the 26th floor. Jex pulled out his phone, made a call, and walked into Calvin's office as if he owned the place. Unfortunately, Angela was in the middle of a report. Jex casually pulled up a chair to listen, pretending to play a game on his phone to ensure the person on the other end could hear everything clearly.Calvin couldn’t find out from Fiona which tour group Bella had joined for her trip to Lijiang, so he had to start by checking flight records. Given the circumstances, her departure was clearly impulsive. She had turned off her phone, making her unreachable if something happened. The incident Jex mentioned about disfigurement in Lijiang was an isolated c

Calvin arranged for someone to secretly monitor Fiona, but the results were disappointing. The person he sent returned the next day to report that Fiona had dinner with Jex last night and then went straight home. He waited outside her place until midnight but saw no activity before leaving. Hearing this, Calvin frowned in thought. Fiona was likely involved in Bella's so-called travel plans. If Bella hadn't actually traveled, she must have contacted Fiona. But they hadn't met? If they hadn't met, could it be that they had communicated by phone? “Did she make any phone calls?”“Uh... I didn't notice. I didn't dare get too close, so I wouldn't know if she did.” In fact, he had only followed from a distance and didn’t dare approach. After thinking for a moment, he added, “Fiona left work with Mr. Jex, and they picked someone up at the café downstairs before going to dinner…”Calvin interrupted him, “Picked someone up? Who? Did you recognize them?” Jex and Fiona didn’t have much interactio
Stuck with My CEO Hubby Chapter 78: The Ultimate Stunt
Calvin had been going out a lot more these past few days, hoping to lure Bella out, but there was no sign of her for two days. He guessed she was unlikely to go back to the café, but he still went a few times out of a desperate hope, and unsurprisingly, came up empty-handed. The situation had reached a stalemate: as long as she didn't come home, he couldn't be at ease. He needed to come up with a solution. Jex and Fiona consistently denied knowing Bella's whereabouts, but from their attitude, it seemed like Bella was doing well, at least better than being out there alone. Even so, Calvin couldn't wait any longer and called Jex over. Today, he had to resolve this matter! Jex arrived quickly and, seeing Calvin's grim face, reveled in his misfortune. "What? Missing your little fairy and looking for a companion to go wild? I'm a decent guy; I don't go to places like that." Calvin didn't want to banter with him and got straight to the point. "Where's Bella?" Jex chuckled. "Didn't she t
Stuck with My CEO Hubby Chapter 79: Acting
Calvin felt he had never slept so well before. Despite the pain in his hand, the injury was insignificant compared to the favorable situation at hand. Bella, however, was not in as good spirits. She had stayed up all night watching over him and finally fell asleep at the edge of the bed at dawn, only to be woken up shortly after by the sound of the doctor making rounds. Calvin now had to act like a resolute and disabled man who was blind and injured. Although he felt a bit sorry for Bella, he had to pretend not to notice her fatigue and worry.Dr. Jason, just like last night, flipped through the medical records and asked some basic questions: How was the wound feeling? Did he still feel dizzy? Could he see yet? Bella listened intently, especially tense when it came to questions about his eyes. Calvin leaned against the headboard, rubbing his brow, and answered in an extremely weary voice, "I can't see."His fatigued and anxious appearance made Dr. Jason look at him for a few seconds b
Stuck with My CEO Hubby Chapter 80: I'll Help You
"During an interview, Selina expressed her admiration and respect for you. Are you two really not involved?" A star of Selina's caliber was very skilled at handling questions, and her response was flawless. But admiration and respect, in plain language, meant she had a strong liking for him and was open to a relationship that could lead to marriage.Calvin smiled and said it was just work. This jealous tone was the reaction she should have had. Thinking about the curly-haired woman at the press conference, he asked, "Did you twist your ankle at the press conference?" He wasn't entirely sure it was her; otherwise, he would have burst into the restroom at the café.She nodded, then curiously asked, "How did you recognize me?""I didn't recognize you," he sighed. "It was Jex's particular attention to you that caught my notice." He paused. "I had someone secretly follow Fiona and learned that Jex and she met a curly-haired woman at the café, so I went back there."Bella didn't know what t
Stuck with My CEO Hubby Chapter 81: The Black Card
When Calvin’s wound got wet, Bella anxiously called a nurse to change the dressing. As the bandage was removed, the wound appeared pale, making Bella frown in concern. How could such a grown man be so careless? All this fuss only caused him more suffering. The nurse repeatedly emphasized that the wound should avoid water, but Calvin lay there with his eyes closed, showing no sign of listening. The nurse then turned to Bella with a tone of reproach, implying how poorly Bella was taking care of the patient.Bella felt frustrated; it wasn't intentional on her part. After the nurse left, she turned to Calvin to complain, "Did you hear that? The wound mustn't get wet! If you keep this up, you won't be allowed to bathe at all!" After all, they were in an air-conditioned room, and he wouldn’t sweat.Calvin lazily acknowledged her, feeling rather moody since he hadn't been able to have his way. Bella busied herself with organizing the wardrobe. Jex and Fiona had delivered her luggage from the

Calvin's minor injury had scabbed over by the third day in the hospital. During the doctor's rounds, Dr. Jason kept a straight face while making notes. He could sense that this patient was in a good mood today and was becoming more adept at acting blind. When asked about his eyesight, Calvin still claimed he couldn't see. Dr. Jason made notes in the medical record without any comment.When Jex arrived, he found the room lively. Calvin was pretending to be blind, Dr. Jason was expressionless, and Bella looked worried. Jex smiled, feeling that he had come at the right time. He glanced at the medical record in Dr. Jason's hand. It seemed that private hospitals were going all out, not only providing medical services but also playing along with the patient's act. What was written in the medical record? A script?Dr. Jason closed the medical record discreetly, advised Calvin to rest more, and then left the room."How are you feeling today?" Jex asked.Calvin didn't answer, but Bella, with a
Stuck with My CEO Hubby Chapter 83: Coming home
Calvin moved her hand away once more. "It's uncomfortable to sleep while holding you." Now Bella felt genuinely hurt. She had apologized, but he still refused her. Stiffening behind him, she debated whether to turn away herself. After a long while, she reached out again, hesitant to touch him. What if he rejected her again? She sighed softly, deciding to try once more. Snuggling closer, she hugged him again and said in a muffled voice, "I want to sleep while holding you." She felt his hand grip her wrist and her nose stung with tears. Was he really so firm? Pulling back, she felt a lump in her throat, "I need a drink of water," she muttered, getting out of bed and walking away quickly. She didn't turn on the lights. Calvin heard the sound of water being poured and the cup being set down, followed by her footsteps returning. She paused outside the curtain before quietly coming back to bed. This time, she stayed far from him, not even covering herself with the blanket, curling up an
