Go After My Ex-wife -
Chapter 354 A Soft Spot For Her
"The thin figure was curled up on a bench chair, with her head in her hands. Her hair fell over her face, covering it completely, and her whole body was trembling."
Calvin's heart tightened in an instant.
"Belle, he said, incredulously."
"After being stunned for a moment, he cried out, and with Jerry in his arms, he rushed to her."
"Belle! Belle! What happened? He put his big hand on her head and asked anxiously, """'You're awake, but why are you here?""'"'"
"Belle, snared in a stupor and confusion, raised her head reflexively when she heard the familiar voice."
Calvin's eyes were overflowing with worry and confusion.
"She looked up at Calvin, her dark eyes fixed on him in an attempt to see right through him. Only now did she realize that the moment Jerry had disappeared, the person she feared of losing the most was him. Jerry was her flesh and blood. It was immutable. As for him, he seemed to hold a very special place in her heart."
"As scared as she might have been, she had to admit it."
"Mom, Mom. In Calvin's arms, Jerry stretched out his little hands to her and called for her. He was about to tear up."
"Jerry. When Belle heard the tender voice, she was taken by surprise. Her heart filled with joy and her eyes lit up. She extended her arms and grabbed Jerry from Calvin. She held him tightly in her arms and kissed him non-stop. ""Jerry, don't leave Mummy. Please don't leave Mummy.""""
"Jerry also stretched out his arms and wrapped them around her neck. His small face rubbed against hers, as if he was telling her, """Mom, don't worry, I won't leave you.'
"Belle's eyes welled up with tears. She laughed and cried at the same time. Her hands were still trembling as she held Jerry in her arms, feeling overly emotional. " "Belle, what's wrong with you? Calvin looked at Belle, and slowly, he figured out what was going on. His face darkened, his eyes brimmed with pain and sadness." The woman in front of him seemed to have misunderstood him.
"Feeling some kind of pain and numbness that he had never felt before, he sighed and approached them. Without saying a word, he enveloped his arms around them and hugged them tightly. " "Calvin, don't take my Jerry away. Don't leave me. Being in Calvin's arms made her spill her guts out. She was deeply in pain. She couldn't think straight. She couldn't even control her actions. She gripped his shirt tightly with one hand, and buried her face into his solid chest as she shouted at the top of her lungs."
"Calvin caressed her beautiful hair gently, but his eyes were still as dark as the night. '
This d*mn woman actually thought I had taken Jerry away! How ridiculous! he thought to himself.
What kind of person does she think I am? A misfit?
Trust. There was practically a lack of trust between them.
"Come on. Let's get home first, he said, as he gently held her and Jerry up, nTristany lifting them from the ground."
"However, Belle was in too much shock just now and had used up all her strength. As soon as she took a step, she felt the world around her spinning, and almost fell down. Subconsciously, she held Jerry tightly in her arms and leaned against Calvin. "
"Calvin frowned slightly as he felt a stab of pain in his heart. He carried her and Jerry in his arms, and walked towards the street. "
"Among the dark green willows along the street, a handsome man stood by. He wore a green buttoned-down shirt, and under his sword-like brows were a pair of bright, piercing eyes."
"A breeze blew over, making two willow branches in front of him tangle together, just like a loving couple dancing. He reached out his fingers to brush off the two willow branches as his lips curled into a smile." "Yadriel, who just exited from the church, said with a fake smile, """Sergio, did you see that? Calvin has a soft spot for her. She is the only person who can control him," as he stood beside Sergio, watching Calvin gradually leave their sight."
"Ignoring what Yadriel had said, Sergio asked with a look of yearning on his face, as he raised his head and stood tall, with his hands at the back. """Dad, is that woman really Belle?""""
"That's right. She is Ethan's only daughter. Sergio, you haven't seen each other for almost 20 years. Back then, I had the intention of letting you propose a marriage, but unfortunately, Sophia beat you to it. What made me angry is that Ethan's family had fallen on hard times, still he didn't know what's good for him, and allied with Sophia, choosing Calvin the brat. The joke is on that dead Ethan. After all, they haven't been getting along. Now Belle and her child are wandering alone. I'm afraid that Kate is the saddest of them all. Yadriel gloated coldly, his eyes hiding a gleam of light underneath.
"Sergio furrowed his brows and asked faintly, """Dad, are you sure Calvin is going to buy this petrochemical factory?""""
"The coldness in Yadriel's eyes grew stronger. """That's right. According to the news from Kyrie, as well as the information my people gave me, Calvin has been investigating the foundation of the petrochemical factory for the past few days, and the reason for him to investigate must be to take further action."
"I didn't expect him to have eyes for such a small, nondescript factory. It's really not a good thing. Sergio said in a sarcastic tone, laughing."
"It doesn't matter. He's an intelligent businessman. This factory produces some sort of cheap raw materials, but generates enormous profit. It's not surprising that he laid eyes on that, Yadriel said, looking dignified."
"Sergio then said, """If Calvin really finds out something, he will definitely change the investment to an acquisition. If he really buys it, the consequences are unimaginable. Don't forget, most of the guns and ammunition we sold were produced by this factory. If this is the case, it will cut off our financial sources. This matter really can't be underestimated.""" Sergio stopped smiling as he realised the seriousness of it."
"Exactly. Yadriel's voice became even lower and colder, """Back then, after the Xanthe family and the Harvey Family failed to get the shares, all the domestic business was dominated by Hudson. Plus, when the old man stabilized the military, he decisively withdrew from the market and led us into the military. Now, our place within the military and political circles is stable. However, these guns and ammunition are our main source of income, especially after the advancement of the current military. This factory can't be bought by him. Also, there are many illegal materials in this factory. They can't be exposed. That old fox, Hudson, has been in vegetative state, and we could have taken advantage of it to suppress him. Who would have thought Tristan was so useless. Not only did he get nothing, he was also caught and sent to prison. I'm afraid his whole life is ruined. Calvin, on the other hand, is a talented person. In just a few years, he catapulted the Harvey Group into such fame. However, it came as a surprise that he will start a petrochemical factory.""
The father and son strolled along the deserted streets in the drizzle.
"Sergio's face darkened after listening to what Yadriel had said. Half a year ago, the huge explosion of dangerous chemicals that had been piled up in the warehouse in Capital City had shocked everyone, causing them to protest. Hence, the superiors had grown very vigilant and they were still arresting the culprits. During this period of time, those were sensitive items. Once exposed, they would be in hot water. Moreover, it was very likely that both his father and his own political future would be gone."
"Dad, this matter requires further thought and discussion. He answered seriously after thinking about it."
Definitely. Yadriel nodded in agreement. He clenched his fists so hard that the veins on the back of his hands popped out.
"Suddenly, Sergio felt that his father was getting old, although he was still as charming as his Tristany years. His heart sank a little. "
They went straight to the villa in the suburbs.
"Dad, haven't they married yet? Sergio voiced out his uncertainty while walking."
"Not yet. They didn't get back together after the divorce, but I can tell that they will, sooner or later, Yadriel said, nodding. After that, he narrowed his eyes and asked, """Why? Do you have a plan?""" "Hearing such a reply, Sergio showed no signs of surprise. He half-jokingly asked, """Dad, if I have an idea, would you support me?"""""
"All of a sudden, Yadriel burst out laughing."
The two of them arrived at the luxurious villa of Wullen Town. Yadriel led Sergio to the study.
"Opening the drawer, Yadriel carefully took out a polished pistol. Turning it over and over, he looked at it with the fullest admiration."
"Sergio, who was seated at the leather sofa, looked at the pistol and said, """Dad, it's been a long time since I've tried out my shooting skills. Shall we compete one day?"""""
"You brat. Have your shooting skills improved during this period of time? We are a family of soldiers. From your grandfather's generation to your generation, we have all joined the army for three generations. Although I am currently in the political circle, there is no distinction in military and political power. If you are unable to perfect your shooting skills, you will bring shame to the Xanthe family. Yadriel looked at his beloved pistol as he lectured."
"Sergio smiled and said, """'Dad, whether I have made any improvements, you will see when we compete. By the way, I've found the M911A pistol, which you asked me to look for. It is said that this was the pistol Hitler used to take his own life. What do you want it for?""""
"Alright. Yadriel's eyes lit up and he laughed heartily as he said, """You want to know what I want it for? It's a gift for Brooklyn. He has coveted it for a very long time but couldn't get his hands on it. I got it as a gift for him to show my respect.""""""
"Oh, I see."
Sergio seemed to be deep in thought.
"Brooklyn's position was decisive in the Capital City, but Yadriel hadn't spent much time with him all these years. It was just that Brooklyn had been treating the Xanthe family in a neutral fashion. " "However, Yadriel would gather some help for the difficult times in the future, and that was all that mattered. Sergio loosened up at that thought."
