Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 212

"Belle, really, I didn't expect to get your father killed. You know I love you so much, how could I want to get your father killed?" Martin's face turned white with fear and anxiety.

"The evidence is all there, and you're still trying to weasel out of it." Belle had always known Martin's unpredictable mind, so of course she wouldn't believe his lies.

"Belle, trust me." Belle's distrustful expression pierced Calvin's heart with bitterness, but he also knew that she had no reason to believe him, and only had to repeatedly explain, "Belle, you have to believe me, I really didn't want your father to die, I didn't expect the consequences to be like this at all."

He suddenly tilted his eager face, murmuring.

"Belle, when I was still very young, the first time I saw you at the banquet in Ink Garden, I fell in love with you and swore that I would marry you in my life. I thought about you every day and wanted to see you, even if I was stupid, I would not have thought of getting your father killed. Believe it or not, this is really what I thought."

His face was filled with sorrowful memories, the muscles of his face twisted, but his eyes were filled with unrequited attachment and fervent longing for Belle.

Belle was stunned in her heart and glared at him sternly as she asked with a cold smile, "So, they are all accusing you wrongly?"

Martin's gaze darkened, his face full of helplessness and sorrow, avoiding Belle's eyes for a long time before saying in a low voice, "Belle, that car accident was indeed designed by me, because your father and I both ran for the position as the director of the finance department. I wanted to win so that your whole family would be impressed with me, to change my position in your mind and to attract your attention, but I got carried away and found Bill and gave him money, asking him to find a way to stop your father from running for office the next day. I really didn't expect that Bill would go so far as to run your father over and kill him. That was not I wanted, since you father died, I have been guilty.”

He finally admitted it. Belle put on a cold smile.

The face of Martin was full of fear, disheveled, lifeless expression, completely different from the previous deep, cunning and unpredictable one. Belle had a flash of surprise inside, such an expression had never been seen before.

"So what? My father died tragically anyway because of your design, and do you think you can shift the blame?" She questioned angrily.

Who can understand the pain of such a loss? Such a long day of suffering is not something that can be justified by such words.

Her father died, and her mother was confined to bed for the rest of her life, all this terrible suffering because of his greed for office.

"Belle, I know I'm guilty and I don't want to beg for your forgiveness, but I just want to tell you that I really never wanted you to suffer, I've always loved you deeply. I caused all of this, now I'm willing to plead guilty and admit my punishment, but I just want to tell you what's really in my heart. I don't just want to beg for your forgiveness. I deserve to die for my sins. I am content to tell you what is in my heart today, and to be able to look at you again." In Martin's eyes was an incomparably sincere confession.

"Belle, you are the most beautiful, kind girl I have ever seen, I have never regretted loving you." Martin continued to murmur his confession and suddenly leaned forward, looking at Belle seriously and intently and said solemnly, "Listen to me, leave Calvin, leave the Harvey family, you won't be happy there. Calvin can't give you the love you want, I admit I'm not as good as him, but from the bottom of my heart, I want you to be happy. Go, Belle, go as far away as possible, the better. The longer you stay with Calvin, the more you will be hurt in the future, those people will not let you off the hook. You should find a man who loves you and live your life happily, believe me, what I say is true, it is for your own good."

He finished these words in one breath, then squinted his eyes, as if he wanted to burn Belle deep into his mind. He gazed at her steadily before finally closing his eyes and turning his head away.

"Belle, go away, never come to see me again, I have said all that I can say, I have reminded you of what I should remind you of. I can only be sorry for you in this life, I will willingly accept the punishment of the law." After he had said this fTristanessly, he did not look back again and walked away towards the inside.

Belle stood dumbfounded until she walked out of the parloure.

Who were those people he spoke of?

Was there something else to hide?

When she tried to ask him, he was long gone!

No, what he said could not be trusted. Belle shook her head and slowly walked out towards the outside.

He loved to play with these so-called hints, going so far as to suggest last time that Dad's death had something to do with Calvin. Fortunately, she believed in love at that time, so there was no misunderstanding.

"Mr. Harvey, what do you think? Are Martin's words credible?" Until Martin left the parlour, Calvin was still staring intently at the picture and could not come back to his senses.

Martin's words really stunned him

Not surprised by his love for Belle, but surprised by his advice to her.

He had never cared for Martin's words before, but today his words still shocked him.

Could he really not give Belle the love he wanted?

The question that never crossed his mind, or he even thought it was impossible. How could he not give love to a woman? It never occurred to him that a woman would be unhappy staying by his side.

No.

Martin must be slandering him and stirring up trouble, just because he couldn't get Belle's love. Calvin thought darkly.

"Mr. Harvey." Finley looked at him and called softly once again.

The two brothers of the Harvey family are both in love with a woman at the same time, and Martin even was jealous even though he was in prison!

"What is it?" Calvin came to his senses and lifted his head to look at Finley.

The corner of Finley's mouth pulled out a smile and he only had to ask again, "Mr. Harvey, do you think Martin's words are credible?"

Calvin's thoughts were pulled back, and only then did he think about the main matter, and mused, "I think so, but there are still many suspicions about the matter, we can't take it lightly. Let's catch Bill first."

"Well, this is the only way to go, we can't be too hasty yet. I wonder when Albie will give the order to catch Bill." Asher spoke up calmly, he was very nervous about the order from Albie, and he was even more devoted to flattering Calvin, expecting him to say more nice words in front of Albie.

In the Fragrance Garden.

Lexie was so depressed that she sat restlessly, a light of panic and anxiety passing through her eyes from time to time.

The agitation did not stop until Hanna walked in.

"Have you made a clear enquiry that Hudson can indeed move?" She asked anxiously towards Hanna.

"Yes, it's true." Hanna gasped, obviously having walked in a hurry just now, and replied mysteriously, "Yesterday, I heard what Paige said to Emily with a smile, as if he would soon be able to stand up. Just now I went to the hospital myself, although I couldn't go in, I have a classmate who is working as a nurse inside. And she told me it's true. After Hudson was sent to America for treatment, his arm can move, the doctor in America said that he seems to be able to speak soon."

Lexie's face became even gloomier, the panic on her face increased and her heart became a mess, when she looked up again she saw that Hanna was curiously looking at her. She let out a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.

She was so anxious when she learned that her father-in-law was about to get well. What happened to Hudson must be related to her. Hanna thought.

"Hanna, you have done a great job. I am the daughter-in-law of the Harvey family, and I also hope that my father-in-law will get well, but I still have a selfish heart. I don't want the old man to get well and spoil my good deeds, so I am just worried." Lexie was worried that Hanna might suspect something, so she explained.

Hanna nodded with a smile, but she did not believe Lexie, planning to figure out the truth, so that she can blackmail Lexie. With this thought, Hanna gave a bright smile.

"You go first, I'm going to rest." Lexie sent Hanna away and sat down on the chair, pondering. After a while, she made a phone call, picked up her bag and walked towards the outside.

"Babe, why didn't you tell you before you came back?" Jennifer opened the door to see her daughter back, she was surprised but worried if she had been bullied by Belle.

But this time Lexie didn't look aggrieved, instead she had a nervous and flustered look.

"Mum, has Dad come back yet?" Lexie asked as soon as she entered the door.

"What's going on? Come to the study." Tristan's voice came out of the living room.

Soon, Lexie was in a hurry and heading towards the study, not even taking her shoes off.
