Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 118

"Mr. Hudson, from now on, I will come over every day to tell you about what happened in Harvey Corp., and also about Calvin. I know that you concern about him most. You don’t have to worry others. I don't hate Paige at all now. How sad a woman would be to see her beloved husband lying like this!"

"If you can hear it, get well soon. As long as you get well, Paige and Grandma will be really happy. Calvin will be happy too. These years, Calvin has not had a good time. As long as he thinks of you, he will be sad. He has learned to smoke now. You know that he never smoked before. I think he learned to smoke because he was so sad. So I beg you to get better soon. Let's work together to get him to quit smoking, okay?"

Belle sat like this, massaging him, and talking to him softly.

For a few days, she came over quietly like this, talking to him. Sometimes she would tell jokes about the company, the performance or some things she thought were good, bad, reforming, and so on. She would tell Hudson those which she couldn’t tell Calvin.

After all, she was now the vice president of the company and the designated heir of Harvey Mansion, so she could something as she liked.

She accompanied Hudson with all her patience and often searched on the Internet for some information on recovering a vegetable. Then she would learn how to treat his disease.

When the night came, Belle, who had been busy all day, came out of the hospital. It was already dark, and the colorful neon lights were shining over the city. She walked out of the hospital in a daze, not knowing where to go.

She didn't want to go back to Harvey Mansion.

She hadn't seen Calvin nor Lexie for three days. Since he left with his arms around Lexie that night, she hadn't seen them.

He didn't come back to sleep with her either.

Belle slept alone in an empty bedroom, feeling cold from the bottom of her heart.

Calvin and Lexie should be staying together sweetly now.

That was fine. His attention had been turned to Lexie, so he wouldn't bother her anymore.

But why? As long as Belle thought about Calvin's tender and caring appearance to Lexie, her heart would ache.

From resisting him at the beginning to enjoy his happiness, and then his leaving quietly, Belle felt that she seemed to fell off from the heaven into the hell.

It was ups and downs and extremely suffering.

She had to learn to adapt.

On the broad street, the colorful wide LCD screens in front of the high-rise buildings were playing pictures of various advertisements, and the gorgeous layers of lights were sprinkled on the street. Couples hugged each other intimately and whispered softly.

There were families and couples out for a walk.

There was also the laughter of old people and children.

There was laughter everywhere.

Belle walked slowly down the street, feeling lonely and heavy.

She had nowhere to go!

After eating some food at the roadside shop, she walked slowly towards the company.

There were still a lot of things to do tomorrow. Since she was also facing the cold bedroom after returning back, it was better to sleep in the office. She could not only finish tomorrow's work, but also spared more time to come to accompany her mother and Mr. Hudson.

Although the bedroom in the office was a little rough, it was quite comfortable. Importantly, she didn't have to worry about anything, let alone see others’ gloomy face. She didn't have to worry about when Calvin would come back or where he would sleep.

It was dark inside the company. The glass door of the exhibition hall on the first floor was tightly closed. She turned and took a special elevator to the eighty-eighth floor. The corridor was dim, and there was no one at all.

Belle was a little scared and wanted to turn around and leave, but when she thought of the empty room in Harvey Mansion, she still opened the door of the office.

She locked the door and turned on all the lights inside.

Then she turned on the computer, made herself a cup of hot coffee, opened the information bag, and typed the keyboard. Soon various business affairs came up.

She gradually fell into work and forgot everything. Probably because of the effect of coffee, she was very excited and worked very efficiently.

When one thing was done quickly, she stood up, stretched herself, looked up and saw that the wall clock on the wall had pointed to ten. Only then did she know that she had been sitting for three full hours.

Pacing around the room, she turned on the LCD TV hanging on the wall. Various images popped up on the TV instantly. Belle moved and yawned, feeling a little tired.

"The film Hua Mulan directed by famous Felix has officially started filming. Today, the ribbon-cutting ceremony and press conference were held. The heroine is Lexie, the fiancée of Mr. Calvin Harvey, the president of Harvey Corp. The film cost 800 million dollars. It is said that Mr. Harvey, the richest man in A City, specially invested it for his beloved fiancée. He spared a huge amount of money, just to make his fiancée successful. Mr. Harvey really loves Miss Lexie so much. He personally participated in the ribbon-cutting ceremony, and also held Lexie's hand in a high-profile to attend the press conference. I believe every woman would envy Miss Lexie. Look, gorgeous Lexie, accompanied by her handsome and rich boyfriend, is walking on the red carpet. She looks so charming. It really makes women all over the world envy and jealous!"

The reporter of entertainment news was commentating with half-joking and half-envying.

Belle stared at the TV screen. Calvin walked on the red carpet, wearing a noble black tuxedo and holding beautiful and sexy Lexie. They looked so intimate. Lexie looked so happy and was taken photos by the media. She kept posing to let the media take photos, while Calvin was smiling and refreshed, catering to her and putting various poses.

"Mr. Harvey, when will your wedding with Lexie be held?" They two finished walking on the red carpet. After Calvin made a speech and led Lexie down, they were immediately surrounded by many news media here.

"Mr. Harvey, do you have confidence in Lexie?"

"Mr. Harvey, do you have confidence in the box office of this film?"

"Miss Lexie, do you think it is difficult to play the role? Will it be a breakthrough compared to traditional acting? Are you confident in yourself?"

With a reserved smile on her face, Lexie held Calvin's arm affectionately and said, "Thank you for your concern. I have admired the character since I was a child. I hoped to have the opportunity to play this role when I was very young. Harvey Corp. gave me this opportunity. I will definitely do my best to perform well. I would also like to thank Mr. Harvey and Felix for their strong support."

When Lexie said this, she looked shy, clinging to Calvin. She was really charming, showing the ambiguity between them to the fullest.

At this time, some media handed the microphone to Calvin, "Mr. Harvey, do you want to say something?"

Calvin smiled indifferently. He had to take the microphone, and said calmly, "Miss Lexie is very talented in acting. Our company is willing to spend a lot of money to build her, of course, we also appreciate her strength. I hope you guys can encourage her a lot and hope that she would break through the tradition and create a brand-new character to everyone. Thank you."

After Calvin finished speaking, he stopped answering any questions from reporters. After cooperating with the organizer and putting a few more poses, he took Lexie's hand and went behind the scenes.

Belle blankly watched Calvin's nearly perfect figure and handsome face disappear on the TV screen. She couldn't come to her senses for a while.

With a rumbling sound in her mind, she leaned on the couch to stand firm.

Sure enough, Calvin had been staying with Lexie on the set these days, and had been cheering for her. See, how thoughtful he was today! How intimate and caring his demeanor was!

When they appeared in front of everyone, arm in arm, what a perfect couple they looked like! They were really a perfect match!

Look at herself in the glass, wearing a T-shirt and jeans, she was so ordinary! She looked so plain!

Lexie was charming. She became a dazzling new star in the whole country and the world overnight, but Belle was just an ordinary girl. At best, she was just a plaything for Calvin to vent.

What qualifications did she have to love him? She was so far out of her league.

A strong sense of inferiority came up from the bottom of her heart. She felt so helpless and powerless. She felt so upset and uncomfortable. She was also very disappointed and was no longer in mood to work.

After tidying up the computer desk, she sat on the sofa again in a trance.

Then she took a set of pajamas from the bedroom and walked into the bathroom.

Turn on the tub faucet to start running water. Then she stood beside it in a trance.

It wasn't until the water flowed out and submerged her feet that she came to her senses. She took off her clothes, and soaked herself in the water.

Her whole body was soaked in the warm water. The scene in the hot spring pool that night, Calvin's fiery enthusiasm, and the scene when he was passionately making out with her, all popped into her mind.

Sure enough, the memory he left on her would be so deep that it would be so hard for her to forget.

With only a few days, Belle felt as if a century had passed.

Now, it seemed that all this was just a dream. It was a very beautiful dream. When she woke up, there was nothing!

Suddenly, she felt a bone-chilling cold, and her consciousness began to blur.

She had to forget something that didn't belong to her or she would be screwed up.

It wasn't until the coldness spread all over her body that she felt that the cold was so real. When she opened her eyes, it was already very late at night. She fell asleep in the tub. She actually soaked in it for two hours. The water in the bathtub was already cold.

She hurriedly stood up, took the towel on the towel rack on the wall and wiped herself.

There were slight footsteps sounding in the corridor. It was midnight, so the sound was very clear.
