Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 347

"Belle went to the room to search for Jerry's clothes and picked up a few sets. Just in case Calvin disliked his son wearing such poor clothes. She then took out her daily necessities and put them in bags. She remembered what Calvin had said to her before she left and looked very anxious. When she came out again, Kate had already stood up."

"Mom, I'll help you to bed, Belle said softly. ""Jerry is suffering from pneumonia, so he'll probably have to stay in the hospital for a few days."""

"Kate held her hand and spoke with a serious face, ""Belle, were you with Calvin last night?"""

"For such a long time, it was the first time that Belle hadn't come home at night. That night, she didn't dare close her eyes. In Wullen Town, there's no one she knew, so she was worried about her safety."

"However, that day, when Calvin came back with her, she suddenly understood everything."

"Yes, Mom. Belle dared not to look into Kate's eyes, so she lowered her head and answered in a low voice."

What is he doing here? Did he come for you? Or did he have other purposes? The smile on Kate's face was gone and her voice became stern.

"Belle was a little scared. She didn't know if Calvin had come here for her or if he had some other purpose. She wanted to have a talk with him the day before, but Jerry's sudden illness had interrupted her. So, she really couldn't explain everything."

"Belle, what's your plan? Go back with him? Or let him take Jerry away? Kate's eyes were more serious than ever and her voice was a little cold."

"Mom... Belle didn't know how to answer her. She looked up at her mother's serious face. The sorrow in the depths of her eyes could not be concealed and her heart was slightly bitter. After a while, she looked up and whispered, ""Mom, he is not married."""

"This was the information she got when she searched for his name on the internet, that he was not married."

Of course he's not married. Kate had a calm expression on her face and a look of understanding in her eyes.

"Mother, you knew? Belle raised her head in surprise."

"Kate's face darkened and she said in a flat, monotone voice."

"Given his current status, there's only one explanation for him to appear so openly in front of you and Jerry. That is, he's not married and has no worries. Otherwise, you and Jerry would be his scandal and his stain. No matter how much he loves you, he'll have to pay attention to his image and wouldn't dare to offend his wife at home."

"This sentence made Belle's heart surge with a trace of excitement. ""Mom, if it's really like this then that means he loves me sincerely and wants to take me back, right?"""

"So, you want to go back with him to be a wealthy housewife? Kate asked sharply without any hesitation rather than answering her question."

Belle was stunned for a moment. The starlight in her heart was extinguished in an instant. She looked at Kate and couldn't speak.

"Kate watched her daughter's every move as if she could see through Belle. Her hands, which were holding onto the crutches, were trembling."

"Belle wanted to help her sit down, but she wanted to stand there, as if she were showing some sort of determination. She was adamant and would not allow anyone to violate her."

"Belle, you must listen to me this time. This matter cannot be rushed. No matter how much Calvin loves you, how many reasons he has, to take you and Jerry away, I would not compromise. Kate clenched her teeth and her face was filled with determination."

......

"It wasn't until this period of time that she truly understood her daughter's situation in the Harvey family. As long as she thought of Belle's fate in the Harvey family, her heart ached. She even wanted to die."

"Believe me. Men are like this. They won't cherish things that are easy to get. If he really wants to marry you, he and the Harvey family must show more sincerity, said Kate with a clear and definite commitment."

"Speaking of this, she looked at Belle's confused look and sighed. She took Belle's hand and spoke."

"Belle, it was our fault back then. It was your father's fault. I shouldn't have listened to Sophia's words and married you into the Harvey family. During this period of time, I truly understood what kind of life you have lived with the Harvey family. This kind of life is too lowly for a woman. Why... Why didn't you tell me all of this earlier? If I knew this earlier, I would have taken you home immediately. You are smart, beautiful, and sensible. However, the Harvey family treated you like trash. They didn't give you a position and even the maids dared to bully you. I would never be able to forgive them for this. These days, whenever I think of this, I cannot sleep and eat in peace. I feel extremely guilty."

"Kate let out the breath that was caught in her chest. She had always wanted to say these words but when she recalled that her daughter had already broken away from the Harvey family, she didn't want to mention it again. She was afraid of triggering her sorrow. However, now that Calvin had appeared, she had no choice but to say it. She had to remind Belle."

Belle closed her lips tightly and her heart was so bitter that she could not bear it.

"Belle, I know that you still love Calvin. I know all too well in my heart. However, this time, I would never compromise again. One can't stoop too low in the name of 'love'. Otherwise, it is not worthy to call it 'love'. Love is absolutely equal for everyone involved. What's more, our family is in decline now. We have no money and no position. We can't afford to get close to the Harvey family. Kate's voice became louder and louder. She knocked the floor with her crutch and said, ""He was the one who divorced you that day and now he wants you back? Who did he take us Morris family for? Does he think that no one would want you? We may be poor, but we would never give up on our principles."""

"The more she spoke, the angrier she got and her voice trembled. It was better not to mention these things. It was obvious that Paige James had treated her daughter that way because she felt that she was too poor for their family. So, she helped Lexie Lucason trample on her daughter. She had always made things difficult for her daughter. Since ancient times, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was difficult to deal with but Calvin was such a jerk. He had forced her daughter to escape to M Country for three years. In those years, she looked forward to seeing her daughter every day, but her daughter always said that she had to study and had no time. Now that it was evident, they were the ones who forced Belle to wander off in foreign lands alone."

"She only had one daughter. If she didn't fight for her and didn't lecture her now, what would happen to her in the future?"

"Mom, please, stop talking about this. Let's go to sleep. Belle held Kate tightly and she begged desperately with tears in her eyes."

"Belle. Kate touched her face and also hugged her. She murmured, ""I think that we're the ones to blame. As parents, we have failed to give you a good life and could not support you from the sidelines that caused you to be looked down upon by others in the Harvey family. However, now, I have figured everything out. Prosperity and riches are really nothing. As long as people live happily, it's enough. You are now 28 years old and yet you have not lived a normal life since you've married into the Harvey family at the age of 20. We don't need their wealth. The youth of a woman is way too precious. You can't afford to gamble it away again. I hope you can find a man who really loves you and that you could live out the rest of your life with the man who could make you happy. Do you understand me?"""

Belle's head was exploding. She understood Kate's worries. Her attitude was clear. She rejected Calvin and did not think much of the rich life of the Harvey family.

"My child, the greatest happiness for women is not being extravagant or having a luxurious life. It is to find a man who loves you, and to live a stable life. You are already at this age. If you marry into the Harvey family again, with what had happened to you before, he, Calvin who had been tempted by Lexie before could also be seduced by other women too. If such a thing happens again, your life would be ruined. Think about it, am I right? If Calvin was wise enough, how would the two of you get here today? Besides, he is not an ordinary man and there are too many halos over his head. There are all kinds of temptations at any time. Being his woman, you would face more dangers than any other women. I don't want you to take these unnecessary risks. In the past, when we had our family background, you had lived such a difficult life. Now that we had lost everything, you would only have hardships waiting for you. Kate's words were eased and low. She was worried about Belle as her mother."

"Belle's encounters in the Harvey family, especially when she knew that they divorced, had caused her heart to ache so much that she could not fall asleep for the entire night."

"Everyone had their own children. Was there ever a mother who did not love her own children? Her daughter had to fight for herself in the Harvey family. No one loved her and no one cared for her, while Martin Harvey tried to snatch away Ethan Morris's position. All of these caused Kate to be upset."

She had never been a woman who would let people trample all over her. She would risk her life to protect her daughter.

"Belle stood there in a daze and her heart was in a mess. It took a long time for her to come to her senses. She said with a bitter smile, ""Mom, I know what you're trying to say. Don't worry, I know what to do."""

"Okay. Kate stroked her daughter's soft hair and nodded. Her daughter had been obedient and sensible since she was a child. It was just that her fate was not good and she did not get the happiness that she deserved. However, she believed that God would always give her the happiness that she deserved. ""Belle, I could only be at ease when you are happy. Promise me, if you and Calvin could not get through this, you must give up completely and find a good man to marry in the future."" She heaved a long sigh and declared heavily."

"Upon hearing this, Belle's heart started to tremble and she was filled with fear."

Could she ever fall in love with someone else in this life?

She slowly walked into the bedroom. Her whole head was dizzy and only Kate's words kept ringing in her ears.

Kate remained standing as she stared at Belle's despondent back. Her gaze was as deep as the sea.

"Belle, believe me. Hold on a little longer."

You are my only daughter. I have to be cautious about your happiness. Who is Calvin right now? He's one of the wealthiest people alive.

"I don't know how many women want to marry him. However, you are just a down-and-out girl. If you two get together again, could you live a stable life in the future?"

"I could disregard the past, but the future is what I'm most worried about. Unless I could see real hope, I would persist to the end this time."

"Belle, you have to understand my worries. If you're going to follow him back to the Harvey family, my objection now is just to fight for your position in the family."
