Go After My Ex-wife
Chapter 390 A Brewing Conspiracy

"The wedding was still going on. After the wedding ceremony, the newlyweds went back to their room in the hotel, ushered by a group of people. They sat on the bed to rest."

"Belle held a bouquet of roses in her hands. The initial excitement and sentiment had faded, leaving only a sweet and happy smile on her face. Her smile was so charming that people could not look away from her. Calvin sat by the side and hugged her tightly, smiling from ear to ear."

"They changed into another outfit for the evening reception, looking as harmonious as ever."

"Hudson, Kate, and Paige all shed tears. Even Rosa and Archer were moved as they wiped their tears away. At that moment, perhaps many people were enlightened with certain lessons that life held in store for them, and they marvelled at the inconstant nature of life as well."

"Finally, when Calvin and Belle appeared in the media room, the parade of their affection caused an uproar."

"Young Master Harvey, will Belle be a stay-at-home mom or will she work for the Harvey Group and become your right-hand person?"

We've heard that she's pregnant. Is it true?

Will the workload be reduced after marriage?

"After getting married, will the household power be handed over to Mrs. Harvey?"

A variety of questions poured in.

"Belle just smiled gracefully, while Calvin cleared his voice and said, """"Thank you for coming to our wedding. Great work, guys, thank you.'

"After posing for the media with Belle, Calvin did not answer any more questions. He took her hand and left, protecting her all the way."

In a large private room of New Era Restaurant.

"Holding a red wine glass, Sergio's face was slightly flushed, and the disappointment in his eyes could not be concealed. Since he had seen Calvin kissing Belle and entering the mall in Wullen Town with her in his arms, he had never appeared again."

"He was a well-known military figure in Capital City. Though he would never resort to being a home wrecker and ended up with a lowly love, it did not mean that he would give up."

Calvin finally gave up on acquiring the petrochemical factory.

"It seemed as if he was no longer interested, but it was not the truth."

Calvin already knew the secrets behind the petrochemical factory.

"Sergio was sure of this. Otherwise, Calvin would not withdraw from the investment easily."

"Moreover, Calvin wouldn't let go just like that. He was waiting for an opportunity."

"Once Calvin took control of Xanthe family secret and revealed it, Xanthe family would suffer a calamity."

"Besides, some of Sergio's secret investments in Capital City had been invaded by Calvin's industry. Putting the petrochemical factory aside, he also needed to transform his business. He needed a steady amount of financial resources to support the political needs. This was the capital and the guarantee. He couldn't miss it."

"In order for Yadriel to run for Governor of Capital City, endless funds were required to support him."

"Miss Yates, Mr. Xanthe is in this room. Please come in. The voice of the waiter outside interrupted Sergio's thoughts. His eyes calmly withdrew from the TV and looked at the door. The scarlet liquid in his hand swayed slightly, which made his face more beautiful."

"Dressed stylishly, Zoella walked in with light steps."

He could hear her voice before she arrived.

"Sergio, I didn't expect that you would personally come to A city to invite me to dinner and apologize. I am flattered. Zoella smiled warmly and sat down next to Sergio. As soon as she took a seat, she looked up and saw the live broadcast of Calvin's and Belle's wedding on TV. A meaningful smile formed on the corner of her mouth. Her eyes gleamed and she sat quietly."

Sergio laughed heartily and put down the wine glass on the table. He rested an elbow on the luxurious table and stretched out his other hand to fill Zoella's glass with red wine.

"Then, he picked up the red wine in his hand. He raised his eyebrows at Zoella and said softly, ""Cheers.""""

"Cheers. Zoella picked up the cup gracefully, and the two clinked their glasses. They both drank up the wine."

"Miss Yates, why, you're a strong woman. You're decisive and straightforward. I admire you. As soon as Sergio finished drinking, he looked up and saw Zoella finishing the glass of red wine, her face unfazed. Hence, he could not help praising her."

"In fact, he did not like women like Zoella much. He thought that she was too smart and strong for her own good. She was not feminine enough for him. He preferred the gentle, capable, and sweet little women like Belle. Like aged wine, the more he learned about her, the more alluring she became. Men would not lose interest in her because of her age. On the contrary, if they had known her for a long time, a man would inevitably fall in love with her. Belle had her style and charm. When needed, she could be both vulnerable or strong in front of men. She would not be overbearing and unapproachable, but she would not be too weak that a man would feel burdened. All in all, when a man needed her most, she could take charge and support his career. She could very well distinguish the role she should play in front of a man. She was graceful, kind-hearted, and considerate."

It would take a lot for a man not to fall in love with such a woman.

"There was no doubt that Belle was a one-of-a-kind woman. She was smart, beautiful, and knew how to act in front of men."

"Therefore, it was not surprising that she could secure the dedicated love of Calvin. He thought that every man would put everything on the line to love her so. In other words, any man would be willing to spoil her and love her. Therefore, he did not acknowledge Calvin's deep love for Belle. He even thought that he would love Belle more than Calvin."

"However, Zoella's bold nature still pervaded him. After all, it was rare for him to see such a forthcoming woman. He admired it, but to say that it was an attraction, it might be a bit of a stretch." "Thanks for the compliment. It's rare to be praised by you, Sergio. How about this? I'd like to propose a toast to you to express my gratitude. Zoella said with a smile. She reached out for the bottle of red wine on the table and filled up her glass. Then, she poured for Sergio and brought the glass in front of him."

Sergio laughed and picked up his glass.

"The two wine glasses collided in the air, and the clinking echoed in the room."

"After that, Zoella raised her head. The red wine in the glass slid into her mouth till there was not a drop of wine left."

"Sergio, of course, drank up all the wine in one gulp."

Medium-well steaks were delivered to the table.

The two began to eat. The slicing sound and a warm smell filled the air.

"Alright. On the TV screen, laughter and singing could be heard. It was showing Calvin's and Belle's wedding, where the occasion was high on energy.

"Both of them looked at the TV screen at the same time. Calvin was kissing Belle affectionately. The passionate kiss between the two had won a lot of people's good favors. They had all agreed at this point. Sergio's eyes revealed a sense of loss, and Zoella noticed it."

Zoella's smile grew wider.

"Sergio, are you feeling a sense of loss because she now belongs to someone else? She asked with a smile."

Sergio was stunned. He did feel a sense of loss!

He gave a bitter smile.

"Since you like her, where were you before? Zoella pursed her lips in disdain."

He was taken aback by the question.

"In fact, he had never known about the divorce between Belle and Calvin. It was not until Belle had disappeared and Calvin frantically searched for her that he knew they had already divorced. However, at that time, he had not been able to find her either. If it weren't for the petrochemical factory, he would not know where she was."

"At the thought of this, he sighed. He had long hidden his admiration for her. After all, she had a husband."

He shook his head and smiled faintly.

"Sergio, I don't think of you as a soldier sometimes. You lack the decisive and domineering power, Zoella said lightly."

"Her words had an effect on Sergio. He had always believed that he was a man of his word. He was a cruel and merciless person, but he only showed his indecisiveness when it came to Belle."

He cast an indifferent glance at Zoella. He knew exactly what this woman was up to when she looked for him.

"Even if Sky Sword Group had merged with Jones Group, it would still be no match for Harvey Group. Moreover, Calvin and Belle had reconciled. The Harvey family had strengthened their power like never before. With the issue of Calvin's relationship solved, it would only add to his advantages. In any case, the potential of the Harvey family would be beyond great."

"Zoella, what about you? Do you have any plans? How is the development of your company now? He avoided the topic and directed the conversation towards her. He wanted to figure something out." "To tell you the truth, Sergio, I am in quite a pickle now. I was born in the wrong time. Zoella sighed with a glum face."

Oh. Sergio's gaze fell on her as he leaned back against the chair. His eyes were deep and unfathomable. "It never crossed my mind that I would see you wearing a sad face. This chance is hard to come by." "He said matter-of-factly, and the corner of his mouth perked up."

"The sudden remark did not affect Zoella. Instead, she said helplessly, """'What can I do? Harvey Group is too powerful. A small company like ours can only struggle to survive. There's nothing we can do about it. We only have our miserable lives to blame."""""

"Was this really the case? Why would she be so willing to succumb to Harvey Group? This was so uncharacteristic of her. Sergio glanced at her and said, """'Miss Yates, you're a brilliant and capable woman, no matter how I look at it. This doesn't seem like it will come from you."

"Yes, of course, this was not her character!"

"If it was her character speaking, she desired nothing but Harvey Group's downfall! Moreover, she wanted their end to be as wretched as could be.

"
