Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 136

Such words finally came out in such a straightforward manner that Calvin instantly felt a chill around his body.

It turned out that this was how she saw him. His love and trust in her was treated as mere venting and humiliation, it turned out that in her mind, he was nothing but such a person. It was really a waste of so much effort on his part, the touch of sorrow and pity for her that came up in his heart disappeared in the blink of an eye, only anger and pathos remained.

"Very good, you finally told me the purpose of coming to work in Harvey Corp, finally admitted that you came to my company only to plot mischief. I really did not misjudge you. You made me feel cold-hearted." Calvin's face was pale, his hand was clenched tightly, obviously he was on the verge of strong endurance.

For the first time his heart felt the pain of not being trusted. He believed in in her so much, caring for her and leaving everything to her to take care of, it turned out that her heart was so dark and it seemed that his mother was right to be wary of her.

The night before last, he had expected her to repent of her actions, but now what she had said was completely contrary to his original intention, and she actually thought that he was just playing with her. How ridiculous such a perception was, and how different from his original intention.

He wanted to turn around and leave, but there was something at the bottom of his heart that made his heart panic whenever she disappeared from his view these days.

But now her words were too disappointing for him.

It's almost driving him crazy.

It was almost heartless that she would say such words.

Belle stood still, facing Calvin who was gloomy. For a moment, she was scared, regretting that she had said those words, as if she had done something wrong to him, and stood there in a daze.

But, did she ever wrong him?

Her dad is dead and she found it to be connected to Harvey Corp, shouldn't she come to investigate the murderer.

Were they close enough to tell him about it?

With all the hate he had for her, and the insults he'd made, it was good enough not to suspect him, so why should she tell him!

"What do you have to be cold-hearted about? Have you been good to me all these years? Have you ever done your duty and responsibility as a husband? Why should I tell you! What have you given me when I was in exile? Have you ever given me happiness in the four years I have been married to you? Do you think I'm stupid enough to tell your about my insignificant affairs? If you despise me, why should I make a fool of myself?” Her fists were clenched tightly, her nails sunk into her flesh, her face twisted in pain, her teeth biting into her red lips, and she reiterated word for word, "It's my self-protection not to tell you, can you give me a reason why I should tell you everything about me? Don't forget, we're long divorced, and what are you to me now?"

Both hands wiped over the tears on her face, and at the corners of her mouth was a forlorn smile, "Tell you what, you are not even qualified to ask me. All those years, if Rhys had not helped me, perhaps I would have died in this land, I lived humbly for my mother's illness, even if I had no more human dignity. I did not do anything wrong, none of this is my fault, what happened three years ago is none of my business, so please respect me in future, or I will be angry with you."

At the end, she smiled sadly and said coldly, "If I was at fault, it was because I should not have married you in the first place, and I have already paid for it, so please let me go in the future."

Tears kept coming like beads. She sniffled, wiped away tears and turned her head towards the back.

The three years she stayed here were also the three years she fought for, which made her understand many things, which made her endure the humiliation to go back to Harvey Corp, but it doesn't mean she can be bullied by others. Now all the evidence shows that her dad's death is indeed related to Harvey Corp's car, she doesn't need to be lowly.

Like all the great things that had happened to him, Calvin calmed down completely, he listened to all of Belle's words almost calmly and silently, the light in his eyes flashed with a hint of sadness.

"Stop." He reached out and pulled the hand of Belle, who was about to leave, and shouted out in a low voice.

Belle's hand was pulled by his big strong hand and could not move. She gave a sad smile, closed her eyes in sorrow.

"In your eyes, am I the villain who killed your father? Is that the only reason you've been pretending to flatter me so carefully?" He asked in a deep voice, staring at her so intensely, "Have you ever cared for me, have you ever loved me?"

He just wanted to ask for clarification, what she had said was clear enough and understood, but now he wanted to find out something that would allow him to make a choice.

Did he love her? Belle never thought he would ask her this question!

Calvin stared at her, seemed nervous, his eyes faintly tinged with a hint of expectation.

Stunned, she looked at him with her mouth open, not knowing what to say.

Would he care about her? Would he care if she loved him?

Does he need it? Does he need her love?

She didn't say a word, speculating on his mind, seeing the tiredness in his eyes, mixed with the slightest hint of sorrow. Could he care about her, but what about Hattie? The love he showed for her did not seem to be pretence.

Her heart began to ache again.

She turned her head away, closed her eyes, gritted her teeth and said coldly, "No."

No? Calvin's body shook, a penetrating chill ran straight from the bottom of his feet to the top of his head, making the light in his eyes terribly cold, but he didn't believe it, and after a pause, he asked again probingly, "Then, why are you sitting here crying? Why would you want me to quit smoking?"

Now his life is in chaos because of her. He is the head of Harvey Corp, his life needs to be calm, not this kind of physical and mental chaos, there are still many big things that he needs to make wise decisions, how can he be tripped up by a woman?

He thought that if she could give him a clear answer now, he would be able to spoil her for the rest of his life. It was true that in the past he had not taken her into account and had neglected her.

But it's all in good time now.

But what he heard was her cold reply. It seemed that Hattie's words were still wrong, and that he had overestimated his status in her mind.

"I like to cry, it's none of your business, I just miss Daddy." She deflated, lowered her head and said sheepishly, her heart was inexplicably annoyed. Clearly she loved him, had always loved him deeply, there had never been only such a man in her life, if she didn't love him, would she give him everything she had willingly? But he didn't understand, he still came to ask her this question. What was even more ridiculous was that there was Hattie between them these two days, and he even came to ask her. Should she say 'yes' and then watch them show their love in front of her and be ridiculed by them?

Just thinking about her dad! Calvin almost laughed out loud, the light in his eyes was cold and chilly.

"So, you are just a cold-blooded, heartless woman." After a while, he finally sneered out, "Don't worry, I admit that I treated you badly in the past, I am trying to make up for it, I will cure your mother's illness, and since your father's death is related to my company's car, I will give you a satisfactory explanation. No matter who dares to play tricks under my eyes and killed your father, I will never cover up for him, I will definitely send him to the prosecuting authorities so that he will be severely punished by the law, please believe me."

After saying this, he reached out and took the recovery machine from her hand and said in a cold voice, "Come on, it's been a long time since you came out, let's go home."

Having said that, he took the lead and walked towards the front.

Belle froze as his hand took the recovery machine from her and his hands were cold.

His tall, magnificent back looked forlorn in any way, and for a moment there was a sense of trepidation that she seemed to have misunderstood him in some way.

Her heart was empty and sadder than it was before.

What did he mean by she was a cold-blooded, heartless woman!

She wouldn't allow him to say that about her!

"Calvin, stop right there." This misunderstanding and the unpleasant feeling that filled her heart made her unable to help but scream out.

Calvin froze.

"Calvin, who are you to say I am a heartless, cold-blooded woman?" She was angry and questioned loudly, "Is it only your Lexie or Hattie the good women with feelings, righteousness and heart?"

She stared at him angrily, her face full of aggression and resentment.
