Go After My Ex-wife -
Chapter 369 The Food She Makes
"Wait, what did I do? Calvin stripped off the monster mask on his head, blinking innocently."
"Do you not know anything about safety? It's very dangerous to let Jerry eat the fruit jelly this way. What if it gets stuck in his throat? How old is he? Belle turned around and bombarded him with endless questions. ""'Also, this thing is full of artificial coloring, fragrances, you name it. It can't be good to eat it. Don't tell me you don't know anything about it?""""
"Good heavens! Calvin was dumbstruck by the string of questions. He wasn't able to react for some time, less of all retort. He thought about what she had said, and realised she was right. Hence, he could only give her a sheepish smile. "
"Jerry, let's go. I will take you home. Belle waded into the pile of colorful balls and picked Jerry up. As soon as she held Jerry in her arms, she felt that her arms were cold and wet. Her heart skipped a beat. She looked down at him, and surely enough, Jerry had peed his pants!"
"It was not at all a good thing that in such a weather, his pants were wet. The pants did not really have warmth too. It was obvious that he had peed his pants a long time ago. Good gracious, he even had just recovered from a serious illness."
"As expected, that man was unreliable when it came to taking care of a child."
"The disgruntled look on her face became even more apparent. After picking Jerry up, she was about to head home. However, Jerry was in high spirits. When he saw that Belle was bringing him home, of course, he was not happy. He burst into tears."
"Jerry, don't cry. Come, I'll play with you. Calvin's heart ached when he saw his son crying. He quickly coaxed him while reaching out to take Jerry away from Belle's arms.
п
"Not a chance. Belle frowned and said in a serious tone, """'You don't know how to take care of a child. You didn't even realise that he had peed his pants. It's not good for the dampness to get in his body. Plus, Jerry has played for long enough today. It's time for him to go back to eat and rest.""""
"When Jerry heard that he had to go back and couldn't play with all those good toys anymore, he cried even more miserably. He tried to squirm out of her arms, but to no avail. He turned around and reached out his hands to Calvin, asking for help. "
"Seeing Jerry crying so miserably, Calvin's heart ached even more. He hurriedly said to Belle, ""Belle, let him play for a little longer. I will pay attention. I promise that I won't let him eat those things anymore. I'll change his clothes right now. He just started playing not too long ago. Look at how sad he is."
"Upon hearing his words, Belle's face grew even tauter. She was indifferent to Calvin's pleas. Glaring at him, she asked, """He's wet behind the ears, but are you the same? What weather is it now? It's so humid. As his father, you weren't taking good care of him. You didn't even realize he peed his pants, and you allowed him to eat those bad things. You need to keep in mind that he has just recovered from his illness. You cannot be messing around. Continue with this and I won't let Jerry come over to play anymore."""
"Her almond-shaped eyes were wide open, her cheeks flushed. She was being so serious, yet she was still so enchanting. Calvin was tingling. He had lost all of his growing temper, and had long forgotten about Jerry's cries. He immediately compromised."
"Alright, I admit that I'm wrong. I apologize, okay? However, you have to promise me that you'll bring Jerry here to play, or else I won't agree. Calvin was unwilling to let Jerry stop coming over. He immediately admitted his mistakes and earned his way into her good graces."
"Jerry, who was listening from the side, knew that there was no point crying anymore. He stared hatefully at Calvin. That handsome guy really put women above brotherhood. Camaraderie was never one of his virtues."
Belle snorted and was about to leave with Jerry in her arms.
"Belle, hang on. Calvin threw away the things in his hand and hugged her and Jerry from behind. He moved his lips to her ear and said aggrievedly, """"I'm hungry.""""
"Order in. She said briefly, """Do you need me to order for you?""""
"No, I don't want to eat takeaways. I only want to eat the food you make. Calvin shook his head. """Lately, I've been eating takeaways every single day. I can't take it anymore. I only want to eat the dishes you make. Okay?""""
He wore a pitiful look on his face.
"To be honest, he had been there for more than a week. Eating restaurant food every single day was really not easy for Calvin, who was a picky eater.
"Belle knew that he was very picky. Usually, his requirement for food was very high. Due to work commitments, he had to eat outside often. Hence, he was very tired of it. He would not eat outside whenever he had the chance. Moreover, the food in this town did not really suit his tastes. After all, different places had their own flavors."
"Nevertheless, she had to handle Jerry at the moment, and had no time to care for a grown up man like him, so she rejected him at once. "No, I can't. Suck it up with the food. I need to take care of Jerry, I have none of the extra time to make food for you."
"Besides, Calvin had secretly rented the house next door to hers, and Kate still had no idea about it. She didn't even know that Jerry was brought here every day to play. If she knew, she would not agree." "Calvin knew that there was no hope for him. Disappointment was stark all over his face. However, Jerry was still wearing soaked pants. He did not dare to delay it for too long. Right away, he let go of Belle." Belle left in a hurry with Jerry in her arms.
"Calvin watched as she and Jerry left. His heart was filled with loneliness. He walked out of the room and went into his bedroom. He wanted to take a nap, since the night before... As he thought about it, a smile tugged at his lips. "
"As soon as Belle entered the house with Jerry in her arms, she heard Kate's and a man's laughter. The man's laughter was hearty. He also had a Capital City accent. She immediately knew it was Sergio!" What is he doing here? She thought.
Her brows furrowed as she entered the house with Jerry.
"Belle, you're back? Upon seeing Belle walking in, Sergio stood up hastily and greeted her politely."
"Belle could only return him a polite smile. """Mr... Sergio, you're here."""""
"Yeah, Belle. Sergio is so considerate. He brought a lot of local specialties today. Later, you can make some small dishes and invite Sergio to stay for a meal. With our not up-to-par place, this is what we can manage. Kate ordered Belle, smiling from ear to ear.

"Really? Belle can even cook? Sergio asked surprisingly, with a delighted look on his face."
"Oh, she has the life of a maid. She isn't as lucky as those high society ladies. Believe me or not, the food she makes is really quite tasty, Kate said in a self-deprecating manner, laughing."
"I didn't expect Belle to have such a pure heart and spirit. Not only is she kind-hearted and beautiful, she can also design cars amazingly, and even cook. It's really rare. Anyone who marries her in the future will be blessed. Sergio praised her."
"If Mr. Xanthe doesn't mind, then it will be a good thing, Kate said, getting the ball rolling."
How could I? Sergio immediately said. "I must have done many good deeds in my past life. That is why I get to eat food made by Belle. It doesn't happen all the time."
"Sergio sounded emotional and affectionate. There was no hint of reluctance in his words. Kate heard him clearly and was pleased deep down. Sergio came from a good family and had a good image. He was calm and capable as well, unlike the other sons of officials, who were frivolous and impetuous. What was even rarer was that he had feelings for Belle. Kate was slightly tempted. At once, the smile on her face grew brighter.
"
"Belle was inwardly cringing from their conversation, especially Kate's pointed questions. It was as if no one wanted her. She couldn't help feeling uncomfortable. The expression on her face was faint."
"You guys have fun talking. I still have something to do. Belle walked into the bedroom with Jerry in her arms. She did not want Kate to know of Jerry's wet pants. If she did, she would ask him about it. By then, she would know that Calvin was living next door, and would probably forbid Jerry from going there ever again."
"She changed Jerry's pants right away, and prepared milk for him. After all the bustling, Jerry finally fell asleep on the bed. He was probably tired from all the playing."
"Belle took Jerry's clothes to the bathroom, and soaked them in water, preparing to wash them. Bailey was busying in the kitchen. When she saw Belle walking in, she smiled and said, """We have a guest today Miss Morris, do prepare a few more dishes."""""
"Belle thought of the scene where Kate invited Sergio to stay for a meal a few moments ago. She knew they would be having a meal for sure. Hence, she nodded at Bailey immediately. They would be eating anyway. With or without one more person didn't matter to her. "
"With Bailey's help, it was not so difficult to prepare that meal. Instead of going out to face Sergio, it was better to hide in the kitchen and cook freely."
"
"With such a thought, she began to figure out what to cook. Suddenly, she remembered the words Calvin had said to her before she left. He wanted to eat the dishes made by her. She was slightly moved. "Mr. Harvey, Sergio Xanthe is intentionally weaseling his way to Kate and Belle. What's his purpose? Belle had just left with Jerry, and before Calvin could even get to his bedroom, Aron walked to him hastily. Sergio Xanthe? Marvelous!
A cold smile was formed on Calvin's lips. Someone actually dared to hit on his woman. How bold of him!
I already know it. Calvin's eyes gleamed coldly.
"You knew? Aron was very surprised. Calvin had long known about it, but could actually stay calm? The person Sergio was getting close to was not anyone else, but the woman he cared about the most. Also, Sergio was one with great qualities. Wasn't he worried?"
"An unfathomable smile surfaced on Calvin's face. His eyes were full of certainty, maturity, and calmness. Of course, he knew what Aron was thinking."
"If his woman could be taken away by Sergio just like that, then he had failed very much. Or perhaps, he, as well as Grandma, had thought wrongly of her. They went through so many ups and downs and got to where they were at the moment. It was a fruitful journey, as he had observed her all the way with his heart. He had already understood Belle, and believed that she would be able to withstand temptation. Otherwise, it would not be worth it for him to chase after her."
He used to be a rash man in the grip of mad love. Those days of literal fighting for love should be left behind him. He wanted to employ his own wisdom.
"He, the Young Master of the Harvey family, had not failed a single time in his entire life. He absolutely believed in his own strength."
