The abusive vet’s vile actions saw Belle kick him out
He had been listening into her conversation with Mandy and Lydia about their plans for kids when Mandy cracked a joke about Tom – that sent him off the deep-end and he let slip he had been watching to Belle.

“Were you spying on me?” she said.

“This makes perfect sense. You turned up for quiche that you didn’t even like last night.

“If you are turning this into a joke, you are obviously guilty. And if you don’t feel bad, just tell me.”

Tom lied and claimed he had just accidentally heard what was said while showing Jimmy the puppy cam – but Belle wasn’t convinced.

And when he let slip he had been watching her when she was alone, Belle was horrified.

“Have you any idea how weird and intrusive it feels?” she said before calling him out for his game-playing.

“This is the problem Tom, you can never accept any criticism or admit that the stuff that you do is not normal.

“You burned my hand, destroyed my mum’s ashes. Normal people do not force someone’s hand under a burning tap.”

Tom furiously went back at Belle, insisting she was in the wrong for hiding her pills from him but she didn’t let up.
