Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 94

"I told you to stay away from Martin in the future, why can't you listen to me?" In the car, Calvin said with a frown, his face full of displeasure.

Belle spoke in an unpleasant manner, "Can you please be reasonable? He wants to come over, can I kick him out? Besides, he's a man, do I have the strength to fight against him?"

"There's a point, if you didn't want to, why would you still be sitting so close to him? Would he dare to force you to sit beside him?" Calvin spoke mockingly, "You act so intimately. Everyone knows you are my wife, do you want the whole world to know that you are a woman flirting with another man?"

If he hadn't deliberately covered it up the scene that happened three years ago, she would not be able to stay in the Harvey Mansion, and Grandma would not trust her. If she didn't know how to restrain herself and let her grandmother know the truth about what happened three years ago, how could she still have a share in the succession of the Harvey Mansion?

He was actually protecting her, but she was all aggravated and did not appreciate him at all!

An Audi car stopped in front of them, and Calvin was so annoyed that he honked his car, causing people to look at them.

Belle was aggrieved, but she did not dare to say the real reason why she would walk onto the electric car, and was so upset by his anger that she just sat there with an upset face.

She understood the meaning of his words, and he would not believe her.

He doesn't believe that she had nothing to do with what happened three years ago. He did not believe that she was a virgin when she married him, and in his opinion, he thought she was a slut. The sulk is inside her and she can't get rid of it in any way.

"Do you really want to leave? Tell Grandma, do you love Calvin or not? Do you want your life to be overshadowed or not? Why do you choose to run away from some things when you have the power to get answers?" When Grandma called her in yesterday, a series of pressing questions left her dumbfounded.

It was time for the truth to come out, and even though she knew that the problem between her and Calvin was never about virginity, Calvin's insult to her character, his contempt for her, stuck in her throat like a thorn in her side!

She wanted to get his acknowledgement, to return to her the reputation of innocence, at least the one in Calvin's mind. There could be nothing more convincing than evidence!

He must understand that she was an innocent girl and that it was his fault that he misunderstood her that way! Whether he accepts it or not, loves her or not, that's another story!

The reason why she still returns to Harvey Mansion is to clarify everything. If she doesn't uncover this misunderstanding, she won't be able to remove the doubts from Calvin's mind, let alone clear the charges imposed on her.

Calvin may not love her, but he has no right to insult her!

With her father's tragic death, her mother's illness, and her current situation, his misunderstanding and disrespect for her had collapsed her entire world, and she no longer had a reason to be silent.

"Calvin, I'm going to buy a car today." After a long silence, Belle finally spoke up when the Hummer was about to reach the entrance of International Triumphal Court.

Calvin was cold and did not say anything.

Belle was depressed, the harmony between them early in the morning was gone.

Of course, just because Calvin didn't say anything, that didn't mean she would compromise. Now that her Beetle car had been hidden by Calvin, and Harvey Mansion was morbidly large, it would be inconvenient for her to go out without a car.

She took a special lift up to the 88th floor with Calvin.

The design department's office was still next door to Calvin's. When Belle opened the door to the office, she found some changes that surprised her, all the staff in the design department was gone, all the original equipment was gone, it was already a separate luxurious office. Although it was slightly smaller than Calvin's office, the luxury inside was not worse than his at all, which was to her liking.

Belle was frozen, it was only two days since she came to work, how could there be such a big change? Or did she go to the wrong office?

"Come to my office." Calvin was just about to push open his office door when he suddenly remembered something and spoke blandly towards Belle who was standing in the next doorway, the corners of his mouth curved up when he saw her surprised and bewildered expression.

"Me?" Belle's face was full of doubt and trepidation.

She walked in slowly.

Compared to the designer's office before, the office now was much better equipped and not at all in the same class. She stood dumbfounded, not knowing exactly what Calvin meant.

Maybe this wasn't her office, or maybe she was too much of an eyesore and he was going to get her to the 86th floor again later, but what was wrong with that? Wouldn't it be better for her if she didn't stay with him?

With a bitter smile, she didn't have the heart to think about this anymore, and walked out towards her office without even taking a sip of water!

Calvin is sitting on the sofa with his cup, sipping tea and reading the newspaper, relaxed and at ease.

Belle knocked lightly on the door, and after getting his response, she cautiously walked in. She actually had palpitations about this office of his.

"Mr. Harvey, may I ask what you want from me?" She approached him slowly with a serious expression.

Calvin took a sip of water and looked at the newspaper seriously. She was standing in front of him, but he seemed to treat her as if she didn't exist, he didn't even lift his head.

Yesterday, this man had been rampaging over her, but now he was sitting in his office, indifferent and detached, as if he had never known her before!

Belle had mixed feelings in her heart and could do nothing about it!

But this was his turf, and she had to listen to him!

"Mr. Harvey, may I ask what you want to see me about?" She had no choice but to ask again after standing for a long time.

This time Calvin finally lifted his proud head.

"Why are you coming over so soon? Can't you see I'm in the middle of something? Or, did you miss me?" Calvin suddenly smiled and asked words that were out of place in the office.

If she hadn't long been accustomed to his various oddities, she would have been overwhelmed by him, but she had become accustomed to it and spoke with a straight face, "Mr. Harvey, did I get my office wrong?"

She had to ask for clarification, and she was not used to such a luxurious office.

"What do you think?" Calvin's eyes were deep as he looked at her.

"It doesn't matter if I got it wrong, I'll just move out now." She said faintly, turning to leave, having known it was a mistake, and thankfully having the foresight not to make a fool of herself.

"Come back." Calvin bellowed out and stood up discontentedly. This woman was always was self-assured before he gave the answer!

"There's no mistake." He spoke, giving her a meaningful look, coming towards her, "From today onwards, you will be the Vice President of the company, responsible for the marketing and design."

He spoke blandly and took an information packet out of the drawer.

Belle was dumbfounded, she had heard wrong!

Vice President of the company? Her? She still felt like she was dreaming, stared at him in disbelief.

"You don’t want to?" Calvin asked teasingly as he stared at her face.

"I'll be the vice president?" Belle spoke out again, it was so unbelievable, it should be an illusion! It was lucky that this guy didn't humiliate her, how could he still promote her?

Calvin was amused by her expression. The corners of his mouth curled and he stepped forward, waved his hand in front of her and said gently, "You've been in America for three years, how can you not even have this knowledge? You look like a country girl."

He had a hint of exasperation that this woman was looking at him in disbelief, clearly not believing him, and it made him uncomfortable.

"I will email the appointment documents to all departments immediately, I believe in your ability." In order to dispel her worries, a moving smile surfaced on Calvin's face and he spoke gently, turning around and taking out another set of keys from the drawer and handing them to her, "This is the car the company has assigned to you. The materials in this packet are about some of your main job duties, have a look, also, the luxury car model you designed last time will soon be put into production, as for the profits generated, I have instructed the finance office that they will give you a five percent commission on all orders for the car you designed based on the net profit, and the finance will calculate it on time then."

Did happiness come too soon? She was at a loss for words!

If five per cent of the profits were given to her, it would be a lot of money, and sure enough he was true to his word, the amount had exceeded that of the Atkinson Corp.

But the day before yesterday, he had humiliated her in public in this office, but today he was holding her in high esteem to her disbelief.

Hadn't he always distrusted her? How could he possibly give her such an important task? Design and marketing were the lifeblood of a company, wasn't he afraid she would mess up or ruin it? If he already knew what she was doing in the company, was this a test for her?

Or was it the fact that she slept with him that made him believe in her. It seems that men are really animals that think with their lower bodies.

Judging from the modifications to the office, this decision should not have come to mind on a whim today, but it should have been decided long ago.
