Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 38

"I never expected you to be peaceful and disciplined, but now you are staying in my company, yet you are having an affair with my biggest rival. Do you know the impact if word gets out? I'm telling you, I don't need to be saved by a lowly woman like you. Don’t think I will be graceful to what you have done." Calvin was almost gnashing his teeth, but his words broke Belle’s heart.

"You bastard." She clenched her teeth and spoke out with hatred, "Calvin, I didn't expect you to be such a shallow and vulgar man."

What was wrong with her? Rhys helped her in her distress, without him, she could have become one of the world's top designers.

Where was Calvin when she was in America with no money, when she was sad and disappointed? Didn't he have a beautiful woman with him and had forgotten about her?

What's wrong with Rhys coming to see her when she's injured today? It's not like she's done anything wrong to Harvey Corp, let alone divulged secrets to him, and as a designer for Harvey Corp, she's doing her best!

Who is he to insult her?

She burst into tears, drenching in sadness.

In that moment of danger, she had rushed to his defence without hesitation, and now she was rewarded with such vicious words and even disdain from him.

How much her heart must be hurting!

"I'm shallow and vulgar?" Calvin sneered out, "So Rhys is noble? And your first love is decent?"

The mention of Martin and Rhys made his heart even more furious.

That night at university, he stood behind her and saw Martin hugging her and making out with his own eyes, the two of them cuddling in the dark and having sex, all in front of him.

Then she turned out to be his wife, while her virginity has been given to that damned Martin.

He did not want to pity such a woman, even if she had been injured to save him.

He slammed the door hard and took off.

On the 88th floor of the International Triumphal Court, the atmosphere in the spacious and luxurious office is somewhat dull and silent.

Calvin was reading a report in detail with a frown.

Aron stood by his side respectfully.

It took Calvin a long time to finish reading this report on Belle's record of life in America.

The report is detailed, yet there is nothing particularly remarkable about it.

It records Belle's study of automotive design in America alone, and it is clear that she went to Atkinson Corp only for the past six months, and spent the rest of the time studying intensively.

She worked hard and studied half-time, with no slanders around her.

Now he remembered that when Belle stayed at Harvey's house, he had never given her a penny, thinking that she ate and lived at Harvey's house, while at that time he only had hatred for her, and never thought of giving her a penny.

And how did she spend all those years in America?

He flipped through the pages one by one, and finally found Belle's experience of looking around for work and her chance encounter with Rhys because she had no money.

His fingers are trembling.

Rhys appeared by her side at such a difficult time. If she had love and dependence on him, it was only normal, but where was he as a husband when she was in trouble?

Who was he to accuse her, who was he to insult her!

Wasn't it his hand that pushed her out of the way for her to accept Rhys and for them to have such a tacit understanding?

Yes, he's really not qualified.

He had thought about getting along with her and being a normal friend instead of getting into a big fight and hurting each other when they met.

But he can't help it. He can't help but lash out whenever he sees her staying with another man.

In fact, her life in America was really quite ordinary and commonplace, to the point of calling it bleak.

His heart felt like it was being boiled in salt water, his face gradually twisted and his eyes grew deeper and deeper.

He stood up and ran outside, forgetting his instructions to Aron and the fact that he still had to ask him, for which beloved man did she design that luxury car.

He ran down the stairs and started the Hummer towards the hospital.

At noon, in a fit of rage, he ordered the hospital doctors and nurses to leave the woman alone and let her fend for herself.

What the hell is he doing?

This hospital has shares of the Harvey family, and none of the people in the hospital, from the director down to the doctors and nurses, dared to disobey his words.

Why was this happening? His heart hurts a lot!

He honked the car incessantly all the way, rampaged through the crowded streets, scaring other cars into dodging.

Just after arriving at hospital, he left his car and ran to the hospital.

Panting, he pushed open the door.

Belle is lying quietly in bed.

He sighed with relief.

He dared not stop and hurried towards her.

Soon his heart was in his throat, the woman lying in the hospital bed closed her eyes tightly, her red lips parched and cracked.

His heart sank straight to the bottom.

He reached out and picked her up. She felt so hot and the wound on her back was swollen and blood was dripping down from it. Her dry lips were slightly open and she seemed to be saying something, he leaned over and heard her breathlessly scream "Dad, Dad."

The breath exhaled from her mouth was hot and burning, scorching his ears.

He subconsciously tightened his grip on her, as if to dive her into himself.

He rang the bedside call bell and growled angrily, "Help."

Instantly the doctors and nurses rushed over, but when they saw Calvin's murderous gaze, they were all scared, and no one dared to speak up.

He had given strict orders forbidding them to take care of the patient, but as doctors and nurses, it was their duty to save the lives of the sick, and no matter what people said, they had a duty to treat them.

But they really didn't hear the bell, didn't hear the bell she rang for help.

It wasn't supposed to be a fatal illness, just a knife wound, and if she was in any discomfort, all she had to do was ring the bell within reach of the bed and they would come over.

But all afternoon they hadn't heard the bell.

Belle's wounds were becoming inflamed again, oozing blood and causing high fever all over her body due to wound infection, which was very dangerous.

The doctor started anti-inflammatory and disinfection, and injection was administered.
