Belle soon approached, walking Monty the dog, and he warned her to ‘do her worst’ as he’ll ‘always win.’
In the cafe, she asked Ryan Stocks (James Moore) for some technical advice for a ‘friend’, and was taken aback when he told her that it would be likely that if the photos were posted, they would be untraceable back to the IP address.
Realising that she would have to take matters into her own hands, Belle broke into Victoria Cottage – but Tom returned home.
She darted into the cupboard under the stairs until he disappeared, quickly stole his tablet and then made her exit.
Before long, he realised that his device had gone missing and watched the hidden camera which he’d placed in their martial home, Dale Head, to see Belle attempting to work out his password.
