Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 112

"Belle, I don't want to believe it, either. But after so long, this is first time that I have heard of someone talking about your father's death." Lottie said with certainty, "Don't be naive. Anything is possible. Think about it, your father just died so inexplicably, didn’t he?"

"Yes, he was indeed murdered." Belle muttered to herself, "But no matter how you say it, it is impossible for him to provoke people from the underworld."

"Belle, I also think it strange. But think about it seriously, has your father offended anyone?" Lottie kindly reminded Belle, "Your father didn’t have to offend them directly. Others can hire them. They can kill your father just for money. You have to think other reasons. Maybe you miss something.”

Belle suddenly understood it. Yes! Even if her dad didn’t offend those people from the underworld, but if someone wanted her father to die, he would definitely borrow the power of the underworld! The murderer didn’t have to do it himself!

The guy who wanted her father to die was so shrewd and mean!

"Lottie, what else did you hear? Is there any clue about who wants to kill my father?" Belle's eyes were red. She asked eagerly while holding Lottie’s hand.

"Belle, calm down! Now, you know that your father was murdered. Maybe Bill's man did it? It's also possible, but there is no evidence. Even if you know what they did, you can’t do anything about it except reporting the police? I am afraid that the police also have no ways to handle these things. Think about it, why did Bill and his man kill your father, and who ordered them? You can't find them or ask them clearly. They won’t tell you. The rules of this underworld are very strict. You are just a woman. You can do nothing at all. However, if you can find the murderer who killed your father behind your back, it will be easy. At that time, you can report the police directly, or appeal. I believe the law. Since such a big event as your father’s death could be suppressed, and even the media all shut up, there must be some big shots behind it. Belle, you might as well think about it after you go home. Everything in this world is related to interests. You can ask your mother your father threatened whose interests? Some things can only be slowly come out if you figure them out." Lottie's analysis was very right. Belle listened carefully. But she had already thought about these, otherwise she would not go to Harvey Corp. to work

"Belle, if this matter is purely related to Bill and the underworld, I think it's better to deal with it. You can ask Rhys for help. He is one of the richest men in the world and has something to do with Sean, the boss of the mafia. If you ask Rhys to help you, it won't be difficult to find out the cause of your father's death!" Lottie mentioned Rhys again. She had a good impression on Rhys. Besides, she hoped that Belle and Rhys could be in a relationship.

Belle walked out of Elegance Café in a trance. The information she got from Lottie was that her father's death might be related to Bill, the member of the underworld.

Who Bill was and what he looked like? Belle had no idea at all.

She only found out that her father's death was related to the car of Harvey Corp. So would Bill have something to do with Harvey Corp.? Could it be that someone in Harvey Corp. hired him, or colluded with him to kill her father? Or someone hated her so he killed father for avenge? If so, who would this person be? Of course, it could also be some dignitaries in A City. After all, her dad was in the officialdom. Maybe he offended some guys. But these things couldn't be linked anyway, which made her a headache.

Most importantly, she had no evidence!

If it was really related to the underworld, Rhys might really help her. But Rhys' fiancée was Sean’s daughter. Rhys didn't seem to want to mention his fiancée too much. After all, he was a figure in the upper class in M Country. He was the legend in the underworld. If she asked him to help her, would he be investigated by Interpol? His company was likely to be implicated.

Besides, she just treated him as her friend. She didn’t love him at all. If she wanted to take advantage of him, it would be too unreasonable.

No! She wouldn’t ask him to help unless she had to! Besides, things were still a mess now. There were no clues, so it was too early!

When Belle's car drove into Harvey Mansion, the whole villa was already brightly lit. Today, the garden lights in Harvey Mansion were on and the fountain was on. The neon lights flashed alternately. It was very lively!

She had been on the road outside for hours.

Her mind was in a mess. She drove aimlessly on the street. Because of it, she had been scolded by several drivers, but she had no idea what she was doing!

When she came out of the parking lot, she saw Calvin standing on the side of the road waiting for her.

She stood blankly, looking at him.

There was anxiety and worry on his face.

"Where have you been? You didn't answer the phone. Your secretary said that you were going to socialize, but I checked. There is nothing to socialize today." Calvin saw Belle standing in front of him and staring at him. Suddenly, he couldn't help frowning and asked again and again.

This woman had been lost in thought. Seeing the vacant look on her face, he was worried. It was very dangerous to drive like this. He didn't know what was in her mind!

Awakened by Calvin's questioning, Belle finally woke up and shook her head blankly.

"Let's go. Everyone is waiting for you." Seeing her blank face, Calvin knew that he couldn’t get the answer. So he took her hand and walked forward. Then they got on the electric car.

"Wait for me? Where are we going?" Belle asked blankly, confused.

"Have you really forgotten everything?" Calvin looked at her dissatisfiedly. If he hadn't been worried that his mother would blame her, he wouldn't have stood here to wait for her! This heartless woman.

The lights in the whole garden flashed. Belle quickly came back to her senses.

In order to strengthen the cohesion of the Harvey family, all the descendants of the Harvey family had a reunion dinner in Ink Garden every month. No matter who and no matter how important things they had to deal with, everyone had to come here to have dinner today. The huge central garden lantern would be turned on this night, in order to make here look more lively. This was the rule left by the ancestors, and it had never changed for decades.

But Belle forgot about this!

She was also a member of the Harvey family and had to attend as Calvin’s wife. So Calvin came back early today. But he didn't see her, so he was anxious. He was even more afraid that she would be humiliated by everyone. Then he came out to wait for her in person.

The electric car drove towards Ink Garden.

All the members of the Harvey family sat by the long table. The entire lobby of Ink Garden was brightly lit, and there were a lot of exquisite dishes on the table.

Everyone was sitting at the dining table seriously, as if they were waiting for her. Grandma was lying on the deckchair with her eyes closed.

Calvin walked in, holding Belle's hand. Everyone turned to look at them.

They didn't dare to show any anger to Belle because of Calvin. Actually, they were secretly shocked when they saw Calvin’s caring for her.

It seemed that this playboy already liked his ex-wife!

Seeing all kinds of eyes swept towards her, Belle felt a little panic. They were all waiting for her!

Lexie didn't come. Obviously, she couldn't come to attend this kind of family banquet because she didn’t know use which capacity to come here.

"Ridiculous! I asked Yanis to inform you this morning that you couldn’t be late, but you’re still late. Do you think it's appropriate to let so many people wait for you?" Paige said coldly. So many people were waiting for her to have this family banquet, which was already a shame on her. The family rule was that no one could start the meal until all the family arrived. Paige was so dissatisfied. If it were Lexie, she would come early. Then Paige wouldn't have to worry about it at all. Belle was just worse than Lexie. She could only make her embarrassed.

The ancestors of the Harvey family always believed that a happy family meant wealth and everything would be prosperous, so the family must get together frequently, so as not to be unfamiliar, which would bring them closer and strengthen the cohesion. After all, a family needed to spend time to know each other. Therefore, this custom had been handed down.

As Calvin's ex-wife, Belle represented Fragrance Garden. Every small family would compete with other families. They also cared about manners. So when Belle was late, Paige felt that it was just a shame. Then she accused with dissatisfaction. But Grandma and Calvin were both present, she was to appease the dissatisfaction of the other families, so she only said such words.

"It's exactly eight o'clock. It's just right. She’s not late. There's something to deal with in the company today. I asked her to deal with it first. She won't be late next time." Calvin made an excuse for Belle and put his arms around her waist, while laughing, as if he didn’t take it seriously at all.

Belle knew that she was wrong, so she didn't dare to reply. She just kept smiling and said, "I'm sorry."

She knew there were so many people who didn't want her and Calvin to get back together. There were many people who waited to see her embarrassment. In a wealthy family like the Harvey family, interests were far more directly important than family relationships.

Calvin took her to Grandma to say hello.

"Belle, do you feel good to stay here? Are you used to it?" Sophia opened her milky eyes and asked lovingly.

"I feel so good. Mom and Calvin are very good to me." Belle responded loudly with a sweet smile.

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard chuckle. It was sound of others' ridicule. She felt a little upset, but her face was still calm.
