Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 214

"Tell you what, now you only have one way out, and that is to cooperate with me. It is always the winner who is the king and the loser who is the knave, as long as we can unite and hold the power in our hands, then everything will be up to us, no one can do anything to us." Lexie smiled charmingly ..

Cooperate with her? Knowing what she was thinking, Martin shivered all over.

‘No, I can't get involved with her anymore, it's simply self-destructive and too unethical.’

"Don't you want the inheritance of Harvey Mansion anymore? You know that after this incident, it is impossible that your position as the director to retain, and Sophia will not necessarily give you the succession right. Have you thought about your own future?" Lexie's eyes grew colder and colder as she gazed at him and asked in a cold voice.

Usually he had a deep heart, but in critical moment, he was useless. Lexie despised him, but she needed his help.

The muscles in Martin's face twisted, and he was still silent and not willing to cooperate with Lexie.

"Well, to tell you the amazing news, Hudson's illness is about to be cured." Lexie leaned close to his ear and whispered.

"What? Hudson is about to get well?" Martin was so frightened that he dropped the cup in his hand and asked in fear and anxiety.

"That's right." Lexie smiled grimly and said discontentedly, "What are you panicking about? It's not like he is all healed, at least he can't talk yet."

Martin was completely shocked by this news and sat in a daze.

If Hudson woke up, the truth happened three years ago would come out. If that's the case, it's unlikely that his grandmother will ever forgive him, and he'll probably have to be kicked out of the Harvey Corp, and all his property and inheritance rights will be gone, which is a rule set by his grandfather before he died, and then all that property will fall into Calvin's hands.

How can this be!

This Calvin is really lucky.

His eyes began to flush red and his hands began to shake.

"What are you worried about? It's not too late, as long as you cooperate with me." Lexie said lightly.

"Then how do I have to cooperate with you?" It was only after a long time that Martin asked, and understood why Lexie wanted to bail him out.

"Don't worry, we'll take the long view." Seeing that Martin was finally willing to cooperate, Lexie smiled.

"How?" Martin asked curiously.

"It's very simple, I want to be Mrs. Harvey, drive Belle out of the Harvey Mansion, let grandma take back her inheritance. And I will keep your position. As long as Belle is settled, all problems will be settled, by then, won't everything in the Harvey family still be yours and mine? Once Sophia is gone, all the power and status will be ours. Although Calvin and I will have more, but don't worry, we are a family and I will not treat you badly. And you'll still be the same noble and incorruptible Director Harvey that everyone looks up to, how about that?" Lexie said seductively.

Belle face flashed in his mind. He had already done something wrong in his life, if he did something like that again, how was he going to face her?

"Don't worry, when you have power and authority, Belle has no one to rely on. As long as you are willing to offer a lot of money to entice her, maybe she will fall into your arms." Lexie had read his mind, and she advised, "If you don't get rid of her, in the future, this Harvey family will all belong to her. Think about it, if she gets all the fortune, will you still be able to get her? That's impossible. Calvin loves her very much, and as long as she stays in the Harvey Mansion, you won't stand a chance. And the only way we'll all be okay is if she disappears."

The words that Lexie said were true and insightful. The words that he said to her in the criminal investigation room last time were really all in his heart, but if he wanted to hurt her now, could he really do it?

But their interests are at odds, and do they have to do this for their own future?

"Lexie, let me think about it." He spoke with difficulty, his heart was incomparably conflicted, really unwilling to go down this path.

"You can take your time to think about it, but we can settle Hudson first." Lexie repeatedly reminded, the light in her eyes ruthless and gloomy.

Martin nodded with mixed feelings.

As the year draws to a close, the Harvey Mansion got its cleaning.

Just after breakfast, Ruth came over and pulled Belle to the side and said quietly, "Grandma wants to see you."

Belle asked somewhat strangely, "Ruth, what do Grandma want from me?"

Ruth smiled, "She just wants to talk to you. In fact, the old lady's mind is very difficult to grasp, I can't guess it."

"Okay." Belle nodded and followed Ruth.

In the Ink Garden, plums were in bloom in all colors, very dazzling. Belle looked at the beautiful plum blossoms with pleasure.

That year, she came with her father to meet Sophia in the Ink Garden, and the garden was full of plum blossoms, she saw a figure, playing a flute in the plum garden.

Perhaps it was these damned feelings that guided her and led her slowly into the trap of tenderness.

Then, a delicate figure among plum blossoms caught her eye.

It was a young and beautiful girl, wearing a short skirt and a stylish red down jacket draped over her, very bright and eye catching.

Belle's eyes rested on her body.

“Whose girl is this? How come I've never seen her in Harvey Mansion before?”

"Mrs. Harvey, she is Rosa Perry." Ruth explained with a smile.

Rosa Perry? Belle's mind searched for this name, it seemed a bit familiar, but she couldn't remember who it was.

"She is Young Master Martin's fiancé." Ruth explained with a smile.

The girl was picking plum blossoms, one by one, and from a distance they looked like a fluttering butterfly, very eye-catching.

Could this be Rosa Perry the daughter of General Oakley Perry of the capital's military community?

Belle froze and looked towards her again.

The young and beautiful girl collected these plums with aspirations of love and full of expectations. Did she know what was happening to Martin now?

When she thought of the other day she met Martin, she took a sigh.

Sophia was reclining on a couch chair, her white hair tied up. Upon seeing Belle enter, she gave her a slight jowl and waved at her with a smile.

"Hello, Grandma." Belle walked forward and greeted politely.

Sophia took her hand and was all smiles.

"Belle, come and talk to me." She said.

Belle's heart was apprehensive, but there was also a hint of silence.

It must be intercession for Martin. Now that Rosa had come over, the intention was obvious.

She stood sullenly, her heart heavy.

"Belle, is your mother feeling better?" She asked with concern and consideration as she tilted up her cloudy eyes.

She asked about Belle’s mother first and then cut to the chase. Thinking this, Belle said with a smile, "Thank you for your concern, Grandma. My mother's surgery was successful and she's recovering well for now."

"That's good, that's good." Sophia was so excited that she said repeatedly, and asked with a solemn expression, "Has Calvin gone over to take care of her and do his duty?"

"Yes, he was very good to my mother." Still smiling blandly, Belle replied without being condescending.

"If only he had done so Tristanier." Sophia sighed heavily as she spoke.

Belle dropped her eyes and did not speak.

"Belle, I have wronged you, and I know that you have hatred in your heart, but don't worry, time will make you understand everything, and I believe that Calvin will give you a fair account." Sophia said warmly and comfortingly, understanding Belle's somewhat sad expression. She must hate the Harvey family, even though she didn't say it out loud, Sophia felt it clearly.

This painstaking effort on her part might only be understood by Belle later.

"Ruth, go get my things." Sophia turned to Ruth.

Ruth agreed and walked out.

Belle's heart thumped, she really can't take Grandma’s things anymore. Compared to these things, dad's life was more important. Until now, she had never thought of forgiving Martin, she would rather give up those riches given by Sophia, but she did not say it out considering Grandma's mood. She was waiting for a chance. She once said, whoever killed her dad, she would make him accept the justice of the law.

This was the minimum of fairness and justice, not something that money could buy.

As she was thinking about it, she saw Ruth walking over with a red box and gently placed it on Sophia's lap.

Sophia opened the box with trembling hands, but inside were some account books and other things, as well as several large bunches of keys, door cards and the like.

What was it?

As Belle was speculating, Sophia beckoned towards her, signalling her to step forward.

Belle cautiously took a step forward and stood fixedly.
