Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 60

"Rhys, your fiancée is unwell at the moment, she's seasick." Calvin walked out from the cabin and stood behind them, the sea breeze blew his black hair over his forehead, his pupils were bright, his face was full of 'worry'. Belle glanced at him, "Rhys, go check on Miss Dixon first, seasickness is hard to bear."

Calvin popped up, well, she can avoid this topic for now.

Rhys turned around, and smilingly said, "Mr. Harvey, I only think of Alyssa as my sister, if she is not feeling well, I will naturally care about her, but there are some things I will not give up easily."

Saying this, he gripped his red wine glass tightly, smiled demonstratively, drained it in one go, and daintily sidled away from him.

Calvin's face went dark. He knew what was in Rhys’ mind, so he was unhappy about it. He intended to have fun for a few days, as a reward for Belle’s hard work, but now everything had been messed up now.

"You are really clever in your tactics." After Rhys had left, he sneered and said towards Belle.

"Even if I am clever, I am not as clever as you are." Belle snorted. He tried to humiliate her time and again, she had dignity! She had thought he would really be so kind to let her play for a few days, but now he seemed to have taken the opportunity to humiliate her.

Her patience was wearing thin and she really didn't have to do everything he wanted, it would only make him more aggressive.

Having said that, she was no longer willing to pay attention to him, and after giving him an indifferent look, she followed Rhys into the cabin.

"What do you mean?" Calvin was furious and grabbed her arm, gritting his teeth as he asked, his face black.

"You know it." Belle didn't care about his face and said with contempt.

"It wasn’t me who invited Alyssa, I didn't know that she would come. I only intended to bring you to have some fun, believe it or not, I'm not as despicable as you think." Calvin spoke with an angry face.

"Is that so? So I really have to thank you." Belle's eyes were filled with ridicule as she spoke, fiercely shaking off his hand, gave him a glance at him and walked away.

‘You're the one who set up the game. There's no such thing as coincidence in this world, and there's no telling what you're going to do next to humiliate me.’

Calvin's face changed. He had never felt so ashamed, his good intentions had now turned into nothing. There was no sign of trust in Belle’s eyes!

"Each person boarding the island can only bring two sets of clothes, two pocket knives, a flare and a life pack, set off from the path ahead and meet back here in three days." The island staff are carefully explaining, "This expedition is family based, male and female together, it's a test of your tacit understanding, your ability to work together, and which group of families wins will receive a mystery gift."

"Okay, no problem." Callum leapt to his feet, full of confidence. He and his wife had come all this way through ups and downs, and to complete such a task, he believed it would be no problem.

Maxim and Archer did not say too much, after all, they were all rather conspicuous in their relationship.

But when it came to Calvin and Rhys, they were not so paired. Originally, if Rhys had not come, Calvin would of course have been paired with Belle, but after Rhys came, the situation was reversed.

When Rhys announced in public that Alyssa was only his sister, Alyssa's face was dull and she stood with a sullen face.

Now that this is the case, then who exactly are they paired with!

Everyone stood there, their eyes fixed on them, their faces full of playful expressions.

"So who exactly are you guys with?" Maxim asked, scratching his head and blinking his eyes as he came over.

"Get lost." Calvin's stern gaze fell on him.

Maxim smiled wickedly.

He had already been used to Calvin’s yelling, so of course he didn't care, but as far as he was concerned, Calvin was really annoyed!

"Mr. Harvey, how do you think we should combine?" Rhys asked politely towards Calvin.

"You will follow whoever asked you to come!" Calvin said in an unpleasant voice.

"But I don't think so." Rhys had a smile on his face, as if he was deliberately fighting with him, "It's only natural that a few of their pairs match up, but all four of us are currently single and have the right to choose. We'll have to ask the two ladies for their wishes on how to match up, I guess."

Asking their wishes? Calvin felt less confident. Belle loathed him and she would not choose him for sure!

She misunderstood him and thought that he had brought Alyssa here to embarrass her, so she hated him! If he were to ask her opinion, she would probably not choose him. He was thinking of asking Alyssa first, but he heard Rhys asking Belle.

"Belle, who would you like to choose to cooperate with you in this expedition?"

Rhys’ gaze as soft and contained an expectant light as he looked at her unblinkingly.

Everyone thought that Belle would choose Rhys, after all, they seemed to have a very good understanding, and Rhys’ care and consideration for Belle was obviously better than Calvin's. Anyone with a discerning eye would know that Belle would choose Rhys.

As Belle was about to speak, she saw Calvin looking at her, and although his face was full of mystery and gloom, his eyes seemed to contain some kind of expectation, and the bright light seemed to penetrate her heart. Her heart twitched slightly, and she was at a loss as to how to choose.

She opened her mouth slightly, but no word came out.

"Rhys, I asked you to come, let me accompany you, why make things difficult for her?" Alyssa had long seen through the truth, and despite Rhys’ announcement in front of everyone denying their relationship, she was bitter in her heart, but her face was unruffled and smiling, and she even stepped in to help Belle out.

Undoubtedly she was smart, she didn't think that she would necessarily lose in this game, in that case, she chose to be generous and decent!

Rhys also saw Belle's dilemma and felt a slight loss in his heart. He had thought that she would choose him without hesitation, but she did not.

He had to turn his head to Calvin and said, "How about this, Mr. Harvey, let's be fair and impartial and draw lots to decide. Whoever we draw will be partnered with, let's leave the decision to fate."

"Alright." Belle nodded hesitantly, but inwardly she was incomparably confused.

"How about we flip a coin?" Rhys grinned towards Calvin.

At this point, the other three pairs gathered around, clearly feeling tense of the atmosphere.

The cold light under Calvin's eyes flashed and a smile rose to the corners of his mouth, which made Belle look surprisingly chilly.

He took a step up and stretched his arm out, pulling Belle over, and spoke indifferently, "I'll discuss something with our company's manager first, and then we’ll come back later."

As soon as he said that, he grabbed Belle's arm and walked towards the side.

Others thought he had something to tell her fearing that she did not choose him. After all, he had brought Belle here, and they were in the same company, so it was only natural that he would have something to tell her.

A while later, they walked back.

Rhys was tossing the coins in his palm up and down, and when he saw Calvin and the others return, he smiled slightly and was about to speak, but he heard Belle's eyes droop and whispered, "Rhys, there's no need to toss the coins. I choose Calvin.”

When she said this, everyone was a bit surprised and disappointed. They had wanted to see the joke of Calvin, but instead, Belle opened her mouth and offered to follow Calvin.

Calvin, with his hands in his trouser pockets, looked at everyone with a straight face and shrugged his shoulders, as if he was saying that she had agreed to this and it was none of his business.

The look in Rhys’ eyes flashed with despondency, and he looked up at Belle in confusion, only to see her eyes looking at him guiltily, as if there was a lot of helplessness.

Shaking his head, he pretended to be fine, "Since you have made your choice, I will respect you, like I always do."

He said suavely, nodding towards Alyssa, "Then we're together."

Alyssa's eyes were clear and she smiled slightly, as if she had known this outcome for a long time, her face haloed with a blush.

"Alright, let's get going." Calvin was happy, but he deliberately instructed towards Belle, "You're in charge of carrying things."

He pointed to the bag sitting on the ground, and turned around in style to walk towards the front.

Belle indeed obediently picked up the bag on the ground and obediently held it, following closely behind him, fearing that she might be left behind.

The crowd shook their heads and laughed. Calvin was really something, they didn’t know what he had just told her, but Belle's attitude towards him had changed and she was now obedient to him.

Rhys’ eyebrows furrowed, and after a moment's contemplation, he walked quickly towards the front.
