Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 72

Calvin sat on the sofa in his office in a depressed and annoyed mood.

It was late at night and he wondered where he was going back to. His heart is empty, endlessly tired and weary.

He opened the door to his office bedroom, went in, took a cool shower, ordered some takeaway and ate casually, then sat down on the bedroom sofa and smoked.

Shortly afterwards, the phone rang and he picked up.

"Hello."

"Mr. Harvey." Aron's low, suppressed voice drifted into his ears, "I have important information."

Calvin immediately ordered after a moment of contemplation, "Come to me, I'm in my office."

"Okay." Aron nodded.

Calvin's eyes were deep, and he was inexplicably nervous inside.

Soon, Aron arrived in a hurry.

"Mr. Harvey, Miss Morris didn't come to work for Harvey Corp simply for the money." Aron came in and immediately said as soon as he stood, "Through my investigation, I found out an important piece of information today: Miss Morris’ father, Ethan Morris, died some time ago."

"What?" Calvin was shaken by this sudden news and stood up, shouting angrily towards Aron, "What nonsense!"

Aron's face did not change and he said with certainty, "Mr. Harvey, it is true. I just finished my investigation today and even went to the Criminal Investigation Public Security Branch to confirm it."

An abrupt chill started to run upwards from the bottom of Calvin's feet and soon reached the top of his head.

"Ethan is really dead?" Calvin asked in a suspicious, hushed voice again, "How is this possible?"

Ethan was an influential administrative official in A City. Such a government official had died so silently, and even he didn't know about it, how was this possible? He followed the news every day, not to mention the magazines and newspapers, even the TV news had not mentioned anything about it, how could this be possible? No way.

He didn't believe it, shaking his head and muttering.

"Mr. Harvey, it's true!" When Aron saw that Calvin refused to believe it, he had to say, "At first I didn't believe it either, but I only believed it after Timothy Lee, the head of the Public Security Bureau, personally found the file."

"How did he die?" Calvin asked nervously as he pressed out the cigar in his hand and sat upright, his face white as he looked grave.

"Mr. Harvey, according to the surveillance video dropped by the Public Security Bureau, he was hit and killed by a luxury car, and Miss Morris should know this luxury car. It is the Panica luxury car produced by the Harvey Corp, if my guess is correct, it should be the one originally parked in Castle Peak Auto City. The colour has been changed, but the appearance has not changed. Miss Morris is good at car design, I think she knows this car."

So that was it! No wonder Belle had ignored the danger to her life when she saw the car that had fallen into the river in the cave that day.

It turns out it had something to do with her father's death!

She came to Harvey Corp just for this car, right! The other car was just for clearance!

"Ethan wasn't a commoner, why didn't the news media disclose half a word about his death?" Calvin fell on the sofa, puzzled, and asked Aron.

"Mr. Harvey, this is where I find it tricky, it's obvious that this is a conspiracy and that someone is deliberately covering up the truth." Aron said with almost certainty.

Calvin frowned, his gaze sharp, as he nodded soberly.

"So, you also think that Ethan's death has something to do with that Panica car!" He turned his gaze to Aron.

"Mr. Harvey, it's hard to say until there is definite proof." Aron hesitated, cautious, not sure if he should say something.

It seems that she didn't really want to work for Harvey Corp. How could a divorced woman come back to her ex-husband's company? His mother's suspicions about her weren't wrong!

Calvin's face was filled with a smile that was hard to distinguish, but his heart was inexplicably sad and empty.

Ethan is dead, but as his son-in-law, he didn't know that!

She didn't tell him, but suspected this car from his company. What did it say?

Calvin was very upset.

Was she doubting him? Or she didn't think of him as a husband at all.

No wonder she came back from America, so her family had an accident, but she had no intention of telling him.

The smile that rose to her face was a bitter one, laced with self-deprecation and helplessness; he was no better than a passer-by in her mind!

"Mr. Harvey, Miss Morris' mother was also badly injured at the time and later operated on, her lower limbs have been amputated, so up until now, what happened to Miss Morris is actually sympathetic." Aron said quite sympathetically, as the special assistant beside Calvin, he knew that he had no right to speak, but Belle's every move was in his eyes, and to be honest, he admired such a woman, who could still manage to be calm and composed in front of such a powerful predicament, burying her suffering deep in her heart and not letting anyone know about it, but trying to fight against the powerful Harvey Corp with her own strength. He was impressed by her resilience and tenacity, and admired her intelligence, and felt it was time to say something fair.

If it were an ordinary woman, she would have collapsed long ago, but she insisted on designing so many perfect car models for Harvey Corp, and even defended Calvin from a knife despite the danger to her life. Although he wasn't there on the spot that day, he saw everything from the media. How much courage does such a woman have to do it? Besides they are already divorced and Calvin doesn't seem to treat her well.

Calvin's face turned white as Belle's pale little face floated before his eyes, the way she was crying underneath him in the afternoon, and suddenly his heart tightened.

Was the night she approached him and demanded 50 million in compensation also related to this incident?

Calvin was silent.

"Go on and keep an eye on it, and keep me posted." He waved his hand, and Aron retreated.

Calvin's eyes were sharp and gloomy. It was really getting more and more complicated! It seemed that all these matters were unrelated to their Harvey family!

All these things will undoubtedly have a negative impact on Harvey Corp if it gets out.

Someone dared to play dirty tricks under his nose, he couldn't help but sneer out. The current situation looked very complicated, that car's engine number had been deliberately ground off, even if the car was handed over, the police couldn't suspect it related to Harvey Corp, so the situation was very unfavorable to Belle!

What's more, at the moment, there is no suspicion to be found inside Harvey Corp, no witness or material evidence can be found, everything is still a mystery.

But Ethan's death must have had something to do with Harvey Corp.

The thought of it being related to his own company made Calvin's heart anxious!

In the past few days, he had instructed Aron to investigate the car, and surprisingly, that car was deliberately moved to an isolated island with the intention of destroying it, and it happened that a rock on the edge of the River happened to block it, so it was obvious that the criminal was deliberately trying to destroy the evidence and cover up the facts.

He stood up, looking at the neon glittering city of the night in the distance, Belle's tearful face floated before his eyes. His heart suddenly burned like acid had been poured on it, and he turned and ran outside.

The Grand Hyatt flat is empty!

Things that belonged to her were gone! All the things she brought here are gone!

She's gone!

He remembered that he told her to get as far away as she could.

The unease in his heart grew, and for the first time a feeling called guilt hit him, which was so bitter.

He pulled out his mobile phone and called her again and again, but it was prompted to be switched off.

Where did she go?

After a moment's contemplation, Calvin ran downstairs and started his car towards the FlyHeart District.

Ethan is dead. For so many years, he had always thought that Ethan had married his daughter to him because he wanted to climb up to the position of head of the Finance Department, so he had never come over to see them or even give him a good face, but every time the in-laws met during the holidays, he was always smiling without prejudice.

"Calvin, money and status are important, but the most important thing is character. Some things can only be seen clearly after time has passed, I think you will understand me." The last time Calvin saw him was in the back garden of the Ink Garden when they met, or maybe he deliberately sought the opportunity to meet Calvin. He ignored Calvin’s indifference and uttered these words in a serious tone.

At the time Calvin thought he was faking it to get his daughter's welfare! So Calvin didn't think too much about the implications of his words.

But those words still had an effect in his mind, and it was also those words that he began to think about and decided to improve his relationship with Belle, wanting to have a good talk with her and try to strive for harmony.

But what happened afterwards was out of his control. How could he bear it when something like that happened? It wasn't that he was indifferent, but he couldn't forgive, he was human, he had love and hate too.

If Belle came back from America and did not take the initiative to find him a divorce, originally he had planned not to divorce, ready to try to accept everything, but that woman's pride, stubbornness is strong, and she repeatedly challenged his bottom line, sometimes he even felt that even if these things did not happen between them, they could not get along well, for they had their respective persevere.
