Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 62

"Hang in there, after the hardest part of this mountain, we will go over the hill, the way down behind will be much easier." Calvin climbed ahead with ease and encouragement.

So he could encourage people too! It was rare to find that he would care about others, so Belle smiled faintly.

On the top of the not-so-large hill, the view suddenly opened up to the endless azure sea, the water and the sky in one colour. The water at the end of the water is connected to the sky. A sun was in the sky, dazzling, and ripples could be seen on the sea. Affected by the scene, Belle was pleased.

"Do you like it?" Calvin stood beside her and surveyed the surroundings, with a smile at the corners of his mouth.

There was a sense of unreality in Belle's heart; would he care if she liked it or not?

But as it happened, right now she liked it a lot.

She took a deep breath and moved her muscles. The cool autumn breeze soon dried the sweat on her forehead, and her eyes darted around, but she lost in thought!

Suddenly, for a moment, Belle sadly realized that it was difficult for her to be as interested in anything beautiful as she once was, her mood was always inexplicably heavy. So she sighed and lowered her eyes.

It was because she had experienced so many vicissitudes that her senses had long since gone numb!

"What are you sighing for?" Calvin asked, turning his head slightly sideways.

Her delicate features looked faint under the setting sun. She frowned, as if there were lots of minds in her heart, and sadness on her face was hard to conceal.

Calvin suddenly recalled what his grandmother had said, so he stared at her sideways.

There was an urge to reach out and smooth the sadness from her face, as if he was meeting her for the first time, her eyes seemed to hold many stories, that he couldn't understand and that didn't belong to him.

For whom did she design that luxury car back in America, Rhys the man she loved?

He then became more and more annoying

These years of married life must have been unhappy for her too. Was he responsible for all that sadness in her body?

How on earth did she go through the hard time? A touch of sadness could be seen on her delicate face even as she smiled.

Had he hurt her?

The life was too much for anyone to bear, and there was too many obstacles in front of them. He didn't want it, but who did?!

He suddenly felt that they were so small in the sky. They were not even as good as grass, for the grass would turn green again when spring comes, but they only live once. They could not go back to the past, and now they could not even see what was ahead.

Calvin suddenly fell silent.

"Calvin, how about the two cars?" Belle had not forgotten that question, and just now at the bottom of the hill he had actually pulled her aside and asked her, "Do you want to know about the two cars?"

He smiled inexplicably when he finished, and at that moment Belle felt chilled and her heart at throat.

Could it be that Calvin had brought her to this island not just for a pleasure trip, but for some other purpose? So she did not hesitate to choose him.

Even though she had already planned to give up, she had come to Harvey Corp for this reason in the first place, and it was not very realistic to really give it up completely, for it was about her father’s death! If she had indirectly caused Hudson to become a vegetable, she would have been inadvertent, but if someone had designed his death, it would have been a deliberate murder, which was completely different in nature.

After spending so many days with Calvin, she felt more and more that Calvin was not such a heartless person, and he knew the law. Although he was scheming, that was only in the shopping mall, while to go to kill her father, it was completely unnecessary.

If it was for Hudson's sake, she might not really take revenge, but what if it wasn't Calvin who did it? Didn't she want figure this out by following him?

She had to find out the truth!

If Calvin hadn't done it, then she had to take her revenge! Her father was her most respected family member. Apart from the debt he owed to Hudson, he owed no one else. Her father was a good official, and he had never offended anyone, so why should he have to suffer such a tragic! Her mother was even sitting in the wheelchair now.

She could not suppress the distress, as if there were countless ants biting her.

"If it wasn't for this reason, you wouldn't have chosen to follow me, would you?" Calvin's voice turned cold in vain, with a hint of displeasure.

Belle looked at him strangely, was he unhappy? Does he care who she chooses to be with?

He had always hated her and wanted to get as far away from her as possible. All those years he had avoided her like a plague, trying to humiliate her and make fun of her at every turn.

Shouldn't he be happy not to choose him?

But at this moment, his face was cold, and he seemed to be unhappy, and Belle was really baffled.

"Calvin, have you found the two cars?" But she had no time for other feelings, she wanted to know badly the answer. That car was stained with her father's blood.

Calvin's eyes were staring at her, growing colder and more inscrutable, and Belle's heart suddenly beat wildly!

"You tell me first, what do you want with those two cars?" The icy light in his eyes was almost stern.

‘Tell you? Don't you know that, or are you deliberately trying to trap me?’ The sorrow in Belle's eyes flowed out, her fists tightly clenched on her clothes. She could even the bones of her fingers rattling, her teeth clenched tightly, and she uttered, "Calvin, do you really not know what I want the two cars for?"

Belle's gaze was desperate and sorrowful!

Calvin really felt that things were never as simple as he had imagined, and that her purpose for wanting the cars was never that simple either.

"Do you think I should know it?" He asked probingly.

"Calvin, I am asking you very seriously now, please tell me truthfully." Belle stared intently at his face, not sparing any of his smallest expressions. She really wanted to know the answer, if this really had nothing to do with him, perhaps the problem would be much better resolved, and that was what she wanted.

"What do you want me to tell you?" The distrustful look in her eyes made him uncomfortable, she never wanted to reveal a bit of what was on her mind to him, the look on her face made it clear she was still on guard against him, and it annoyed him a lot!

There was a wave of anger rising in his heart, his face was expressionless, "You are really perplexing. Tell me and maybe I can get it back for you, otherwise don't blame me if it is gone. My patience is limited and I don't have that much free time to meddle with those idle matters."

He finished coldly and turned towards the bottom of the mountain. She was reluctant to take the initiative to tell him, that was disrespectful, why should he have to be so condescending? it was definitely her loss if she didn't tell him!

The expression on Belle's face was obvious, she wouldn't tell him, she had concerns and did not trust him.

Humph, he coldly snorted out, there was nothing that he could not get the answer! As long as he wanted to know, no one could hide anything from him.

He walked away, but Belle stood frozen in place, full of shock.

What did it mean?

Was he telling her that the two cars had disappeared? Or did he ruse to give them to her!

A sense of foreboding washed over her and she suddenly felt a chill run through her body.

"Hey, what do you mean?" She asked nervously as she hurriedly followed.

Calvin was annoyed and ignored her, walking alone towards the front.

The sun was setting, the golden sunlight tinting the island with a layer of gold, and it became empty and quiet. Belle suddenly felt that the island was terribly quiet, and the mist was twisting everywhere, adding a mysterious colour to the island.

The autumn chill and the sea breeze, along with the slanting sunset, made Belle feel the cold intensify, and at the same time, she felt an inexplicable fear.

She looked at the slanting sun, it was already slowly getting dark and they had just been delayed for a while, could they still make it?

"Hurry up, it's getting dark and it's dangerous to paddle at night." Calvin was walking ahead and couldn't help but be impatient. This woman was nonchalant and slow, she didn't even understand the dangers, which annoyed him. There was a stretch of water between the two islands that they could only go through it by boat. They have to paddle themselves, for there was no staff to offer help.

Belle, scared in her mind, nodded in agreement and picked up the pace.

The high heels made a muffled sound as they stepped on the not-so-smooth downhill road.

Calvin's footsteps were like flying, rushing forward. Although he was rushing with all his might, Belle still felt cold. There was a set of autumn clothes in her bag and she wanted to take them out to keep out the cold, but the bag was on his body, and she could not keep up with his pace.

Although the path down the mountain was not as difficult as the one up, it was easier to fall down because of the weight going forward. Belle walked slowly, but her heels still stepped on a stone, and she sprained her ankle and fell to the ground. In much pain, she screamed out.

She squatted down, rubbed her ankle, and when she stood up again, she bared her teeth in pain, and when she looked up, Calvin had already disappeared. She was upset about this, sure enough, he did not have a bit of sympathy. What should she do? She looked around, only to find that she was still halfway up the mountain, a long way from the boat below.

He's probably already gone down the hill.

She didn't expect any kindness from him, and at the thought of his gloomy face just at the top of the hill, and his words about the two cars, she only felt chilling in heart.

Maybe he was trying to get rid of her, and with his hatred for her, she was dead when she chose him at the bottom of the hill.

It was getting darker and darker, and she was cold and scared, her ankles soon red and swollen as she crumpled to the ground.

The flare and her clothes were on his body, and she was empty-handed. Unless he returned to save her, she might really die. She was halfway up the mountain, and even the occasional rover at the foot of the mountain wouldn't find her!

She closed her eyes in despair, her mind racing. Why did he suddenly mention the two cars? Wasn't it a pleasure trip? He must have set it up on purpose, he already knew she was trying to trace her father's death, and he was afraid the truth would come out, so he would kill her.

Otherwise when he found that she was wearing high heels, he didn't remind her to change them, but even brought her here on purpose.

‘Calvin, you bastard, even if I die, I will not let you go. How dare you bully a woman?’

Belle cursed in panic, but gradually her voice trailed off. It was getting darker and darker, she could not go out tonight.

At this moment, her mobile phone rang.

It was like seeing a light in the darkness, she was surprised that she had her mobile phone.

No, she was not going to die. The phone was the best communication tool, she still had Rhys, he was also on the island, if she asked him for help, he would come and save her, he would never see her die.

"Belle, where are you now? Are you okay?" Rhys' warm and soft voice came from the phone, and Belle was so excited that she actually choked up.

"What's wrong? Belle." When Rhys heard Belle's sobbing, his heart sank and he asked nervously.

Tears came to her eyes at once, she sucked in her nose and was about to speak, but suddenly a large hand reached over and snatched her phone, a cold breeze with the familiar scent of mint was pouring straight into her nose.

"Stay here on purpose so you can call your lover?" His voice was irritable and cold.

Belle looked up in astonishment, only to see Calvin grabbing her phone, his forehead covered in sweat, a hint of anxiety still visible between his eyebrows, but his face was already covered with anger and contempt.

"Will you stop being so pretentious? What time is it now? And you're still hiding here on the phone, you can't wait to seduce him? Don't forget, he's got a woman with him." Calvin was furious, his voice cold and venomous.

Belle's face turned white and she stood up with a start, forgetting even the pain in her feet.
