Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 47

Belle took a step back as her face blushed. There were many people staring at them. How could he blatantly ignore the fact that people would gossip? Their relationship will catch a lot of attention, but he still act rashly.

“Calvin, here comes the water.” Lexie came and stood between them, said to Calvin in a gentle voice.

“Thanks.” Calvin drank up the water and handed the cup to the staff. He then put his arms around Lexie’s shoulders, said with a smile, “Lexie, please tell me your arrangement.”

Lexie gave a smile, “You have promised that you will have me on the stage, don’t go back to your words.”

“Sure,” Calvin glanced at Belle who was standing behind him.

Until then did Lexie told her plan again with satisfaction.

“Lexie, about the promotion of the car model, raise it to the best time and leave ten minutes to Belle.” He said blankly.

“Why? It will affect the contract.” Lexie was confused.

"It won’t.” Belle was impressed by Calvin's ingenious arrangement. Originally, she only wanted to present in person, but Calvin arranged her presentation at the climax of the event, which would definitely yield unexpected results. ”And it will definitely give the cars great exposure, it is brilliant.”

She put on a faint smile. Calvin was really smart. It was not by chance that his businesses were successful.

"Calvin, I am in charge of the press conference. You have never rejected my planning before. Are you rejecting me now because of her?” Lexie shouted out.

"It's decided.” Calvin said in a cold voice, the smile on his face, “Please cooperate with Miss Morris, I gotta go.”

When he finished speaking, his phone rang. Picking up the phone, he walked outside.

Lexie stared furiously at Belle.

"Miss Johnson, don’t touch something that you don’t understand, it is not good for the man you love. Calvin will not be fooled by your little tricks.” Belle said indifferently while meeting with Lexie's murderous gaze.

"Belle, don't get ahead of yourself. You're just someone who got dumped by Calvin. He will not fall in love with you even if you pester him, and I will not allow it.” Lexie cursed in her fury.

"Is that so?” Belle laughed out loud, “Well, I can't do anything if you don't like me. Calvin was the one who hired me. He begged me to be his designer, for he likes my designs!” Belle took a step forward, “I don't need you to worry about my ten minutes. You will not be able to understand my designs, so just stand out of it.”

After that, Belle looked away from Lexie, but read the list. She asked the staff, “Why is in charge of video projection? Tell him to come to me.”

"Yes, Miss Morris.” The staff agreed readily.

Belle raised her heard and walked by Lexie with a smile, “Miss Johnson, I was once Calvin's legal wife, unlike you, rely on conspiracy and trick and might still fail to get the title. I don't mind that you steal the man I don’t want anymore, but it is hard to say if you can be his wife!”

Belle laughed softly, shook her head, and walked away.

Lexie shivered all over out of anger.

Some of the staff members snickered at the scene.

"Mr. Calvin, about the two cars that you asked me to look for, one is parked in the compound of A City's government. It was originally used by the city's secretary, but due to restrictive measures, he has stopped using the car. The other car was originally parked in Green Mountain Automobile City, but the car went missing. No traces of it could be found" Aron reported while standing straight with his face full of doubts.

What? Calvin raised his head in shock."It's missing? Isn't it parked at Green Mountain Automobile City? How can it be missing?"

"Yes, Mr. Calvin, I also thought that it's strange.” Aron couldn't hide his skepticism and said strangely, “After that, I called Robert and said you sent me here. He took me and looked around, but we still couldn't find it. However, I noticed some suspicions.”

Calvin's hands were twisted together. He leaned into his chair and his eyes darkened. He had a skeptical look on his face.

Belle had repeatedly asked for these two cars, why would she want these two cars?"

Although she had made it clear that she did not want these two cars anymore at dinner last night, he felt confused. The two cars were outdated models. It no longer had any meaning to Harvey Corp. As he has promised to give her the cars, he would do it.

This morning, he immediately ordered Aron to bring the car out of Green Mountain Automobile City. He thought of giving her one of the cars tonight. However, Alvin brought him the news when it was almost time to get off work. It shocked him.

“The car couldn't have flown away.” He couldn't help mumbling.

Aron replied affirmatively, “I found the car there. However, it has been modified and painted red. Even the engine number was erased.”

Alvin's words shocked Calvin to the point that he sprung to his feet.

“What did you say? The engine number was erased? Who did that?”

"Mr. Calvin, I really don't know. This is just what I found in the Automobile City. I only found out after getting a professional technician to check it out. I don’t know why it happened.” Aron said embarrassedly."

"D*mn it.” Calvin scolded loudly.

The Panica car was a global limited edition produced by Harvey Corp a few years ago. Due to the limited technology, they hired foreign designers to produce the car. Only five cars were produced globally in commemoration of the fiftieth anniversary of Harvey Corp's establishment. The founders of Harvey Corp started the business decades ago. On the fiftieth anniversary, Calvin ordered the production team to hasten the manufacturing of the cars.

The luxury cars were of great quality. Calvin ordered for one to be put into the Green Mountain Automobile City for commemoration. It didn't matter how much it was worth, since the Harvey family could afford it easily. The car was used when Calvin married Belle, so the sentimental value was greater than its actual value. However, the car consumed a lot of fuel, so it was not the best for daily use."

At that time, Harvey Corp gifted one of the cars to the city government, so it was not surprising that one was stationed in the government."

Calvin originally thought that Belle wanted the car as a souvenir from their marriage. After all, he drove this car when he married her back then.

That day, when she made the request, he thought about it for a long time before agreeing to her. Since he had agreed to it, he didn't want to break his promise. But now, he found it hard to the finish.

He lit a cigar, took a drag, standing by the window.

Could there be something behind this?

Why did she insist in asking for these two cars? It must not be simple. Their marriage has been her nightmare, how could it be a reason?

“Aron, find this out, the news conference is about to start, so I can only leave it behind for the time being. I hope I can have the result before Grandma’s birthday. I want to know who dare to destroy out care and why he did that.” After a moment of silence, he gave an order to Aron.

“Yes, Mr. Calvin.” Aron responded.

“Any clues to the attack?” Calvin asked in a cold voice. He did not believe that that man attached him out of impulse, he felt that someone was behind the scene.

Aron shook his head, “On the surface, that man attacked you for personal reason, no further evidence can be found.”

Calvin’s fave was sullen.

“Check it out secretly, let me now if there is any clue.”

“Yes.” Aron then walked away.

Calvin lost in thought, expressionless, with his hands in his pockets.

Aron was a soider, and it took Calvin a great trouble to find someone who was brace and smart. And Aron had been helping Calvin secretly.

Not so many staff of the Harvey Corp knew Aron, for he did not need to stay in the office. Only the secretary knew his number, but the secretary did not know what he was doing.

If even Aron found the problem tricky, will it mean that it is really a complicated problem?

Belle had been working for several hours. She was perfecting the commentary. She only had ten minutes, so she had to be concise and highlight the superior performance and characteristics of the car, accompanied by the illustrations. This was of utmost importance.

Calvin walked into the room, sat on the sofa and then looked at her with his head tilted, a cigar in his mouth.

Belle was so focused on work that she only raised her head when she smelled the cigar.

Meeting with his gaze, Belle felt that it was creepy.

Recently, he had been courteous to her, regarded her as a normal friend. Thus, she gave him a polite smile.
