Chapter 116. Bella's Playful Games and Steve's Dilemma

As he leaned in, Bella took a step back to avoid Steve's kiss and laughed, "Hahahaha... Hahaha...! I was just joking!! Why are you both so serious?!" Bella exclaimed.

Thump!

Steve looked at Bella in confusion, as did Joy.

"Come on! You're too serious! I was just kidding, dear!" Bella said, looking at Steve with her puzzled expression.

"You passed, Joy!! You are very loyal to my husband!" Bella continued, laughing softly, covering her mouth a bit.

"Is that true?" Joy couldn't believe it.

"Darling, you surprised me!" Steve exclaimed happily.

"Tsk...! I just wanted to tease you a bit. To improve our relationship," Bella said.

"Thank you, dear," Steve replied happily, rushing towards Bella to hug his wife.

Just as Steve approached, Bella pretended to divert and approached Joy again, hugging her briefly.

"You are the woman worthy of accompanying my husband, Joy!" Bella said with a smile.

"Ma'am...?" Joy interjected.
