Go After My Ex-wife
Chapter 506 Twin Plum Fan

The summer sun shone through the dense green trees outside the window and fell onto Kate's face and body. She was sitting in a wheelchair and was very sad.

"Belle did not listen to her advice and insisted on reconciling with Calvin. Not long after, Calvin was plagued with nasty rumors. The fact that he was going to take a second wife was a hot topic in the newspapers."

"In the face of her criticism, Calvin stated his opinion frankly."

This made Kate feel sad and distressed.

"So far, Hudson and Paige had never given her a direct answer. So, she had no choice but to wait. More importantly, even her daughter had no movements anymore. It was as if she had already accepted reality. Also, since Belle last returned to her parents' home and stayed for a few days, she hadn't called Kate to speak about this matters."

"Kate's hair had already started to turn gRhys, and there were more and more wrinkles on her face."

"Ever since Ethan's untimely death, her life had taken a huge turn."

"All of her strength and stocism were relative to Ethan's, but she was extremely vulnerable when it came to her daughter's happiness, to the point where she couldn't even bear the slightest bit of frustration."

Her worries about Belle were the cause of her white hair.

"She went to the corner of the study with her wheelchair, where an exquisite wooden box was placed on top of a bookcase."

"With trembling hands, she reached out to pick up the wooden box."

The rims of her eyes turned moist.

"She gently caressed the wooden box. Although the box was exquisite, it was obviously an antique ornament. The design and decorations were both simple and unsophisticated, which were incompatible with modern trends."

She slowly opened the box lid.

An exquisitely faded jade fan was laying in the wooden box.

Kate slowly took it out with a sorrowful look on her face.

Her eyes looked empty and blurry.

She carefully opened the jade fan.

"It was a jade fan from a few centuries ago. The middle part had already faded and was embroidered with a vivid red plum. The handle of the jade fan was inlaid with rare jewelry, and there was a poem on it." This was a verse adapted from one of the poets of the past's collection of poems.

Kate silently read out that poem with a few tears streaming down her face.

"She had never seen her mother before. It seemed that ever since she could remember things, the concept of a mother was never engraved in her mind. Later on, from her father's words, she learnt that her mother had already separated from her father when she was only one year old and had never come back since then."

"Nevertheless, when she was ten years old, her father had depression, and he passed away soon after."

"In his last moments, he passed that wooden box to her."

"He told her that it was the only thing that her mother had left behind, and he wanted her to keep it as a memento."

"As for her mother, she did not have any feelings for her. Ever since she was young, the word 'mother', that made everyone feel warm, was empty and cold to her. She did not even have the least bit of good impression of her."

"After her father died, Bailey always stayed by her side. Only when she married Ethan did she attain happiness. Later on, she gave birth to a daughter, and she gave her lifelong love to her daughter, hoping that she could be happy."

"Nonetheless, her daughter's happiness came too fast and had disappeared just as quickly."

"It was as if everything was fated to happen. Even so, Kate did not complain about life. Her only wish was that her daughter could be happy."

"Madam Kate, it's time to take your medication. When Bailey walked in and saw that Kate was staring blankly at the wooden box with a sorrowful face, she couldn't help but to sigh and speak with distress." "Recently, Kate liked to stare at that wooden box in a daze. Usually, she would stare at it for a few hours, and when she did that, she would immerse herself in it wholeheartedly and forget her surroundings." "Bailey understood what she was thinking. She was too lonely and missed her mother too much. If it weren't for that, she wouldn't have focused all of her attention on Belle too."

"Ever since she learnt that Calvin was going to take a second wife, she became even more worried. She would either stare blankly at the wooden box, or hug Ethan's portrait in a daze, sometimes for hours." It was not until Bailey repeated herself a few times that Kate finally came back to her senses.

She retrieved the medication from Bailey and took it silently.

"Madam Kate, I'll wheel you downstairs for a walk. Bailey was really worried that Kate would get sick from depression. After all, she had just recovered from her kidney disease, and her current state wasn't good for her recuperation. Bailey then waited for Kate to finish taking the medicine and mentioned it with a smile."

"There's no need for that. Bailey, please ask Belle to come back if she's free. I have something to say to her. Kate shook her head."

Okay. Bailey nodded and agreed.

"Seeing that Bailey was going to make a phone call, Kate returned to her own world."

"In the dense jungle, several dark shadows gradually approached a small house."

The man who took the lead kicked open the door vigorously.

"Don't move, Aron shouted in a low voice."

"A musty smell entered his nose, and he couldn't help but to frown at the smell."

There was no movement in the room.

Aron slowly walked in with a gun in his hand.

"Mr. Harvey, there's no one here. Aron glanced at that narrow and damp space, but he couldn't see anyone."

"Wearing a bulletproof vest, Calvin followed closely behind. Under his thick, sword-like eyebrows was a pair of cold, sharp eyes."

"Are you sure it's here? Calvin raised his eyebrows, expressing his doubt."

"That's right. It should be, Luca answered convincingly, looking around the room."

"For the past few days, he had been tracking around there and was sure that there was a group of people there. He shouldn't be wrong."

Calvin frowned as a dark expression flashed across his entire face.

"According to the information he had received, although Evan had fallen into the hands of terrorists, he was still under Reid's control. Nevertheless, it won't be long. So, he had to make a move." "Mr. Harvey, someone is coming. Aron was very alert. He said in a low voice and immediately perked up his ears."

Everyone's nerves tightened in an instant and they listened carefully.

"There were footsteps coming that way, and the sound was very heavy. It was a man who was humming."

"Calvin gave Aron and the others a look, and he instantly pressed himself against the wall. Aron and Luca nodded and quickly moved to the side to stay hidden too."

"Reid, Reid. A man's voice rang outside."

There was no movement in the room.

The man reached out to push the door open and stepped in.

Don't move. The black muzzle of a gun was pointed at him.

"Spare me. The man was shocked at first, but he soon understood what was going on. He hurriedly raised his hands and cried out in panic."

Kneel down. Aron's voice was very cold and fierce.

"The man knelt down with his hands on his head, and his whole body was shaking."

Where's Reid? Calvin asked in a stern voice.

"After observing for a while, the middle-aged man was the only one who came. He was wearing a headscarf, a flowery shirt, and shorts. He looked like an M Countryn." I don't know. The man's voice was trembling as he answered.

It turned out that he was European.

Calvin heaved a sigh of relief.

Don't play any tricks. Tell me the truth. Where is Reid? Luca smiled coldly and kicked him hard. "I'll kill you if you can't give me an answer."

"Sir, I really don't know. Luca's kick landed on his waist, and the man squealed like a pig in pain."

Aron became impatient. He reached out his hand and moved the man's hair up. He then pointed the gun at the man's temple and was ready to shoot him.

That man would die immediately once he pulled the trigger.

The man's face turned pale with fright.

"What about it? Tell me honestly. If not, I'll immediately take your worthless life. Calvin crossed his arms around his chest as he looked coldly at him."

"Sir, I'm just following Reid to earn some extra money. I really don't know where they usually are, the man answered."

"Then, why are you here today? Calvin asked matter-of-factly."

"Sir, Reid said that he was going to deliver a batch of goods, and he asked me to come over to help. But I met you guys as soon as I came over. The man did not dare to hide anything, and he explained sincerely."

What kind of goods are they? Calvin asked while furrowing his brows.

Speak. Luca kicked the man's chest.

"Upon being kicked, the man cried in pain. """Sir, recently, Reid's men caught a useful person. They said that the man a the master of the famous Harvey family in A City, and that they could use him to exchange for a lot of money. Moreover, the other party had already offered a price, and they were planning to send that man to another place today, that was why he asked me to come over. Since the reward is very high I chose to help out, since I also wanted to make a living. But now, it seems that Reid has changed his mind, or he is not in good shape today. So, they're not sending the goods today.""""

Where's that man? Where are you guys sending him to?

"When Calvin heard that, he immediately barked out a stern question, when he thought that his explanation was probable."

"Sir, I really don't know anything, as I met you as soon as I came here. Please forgive me, Sir. I am really just a small fry. I just follow orders to earn some money. I don't know anything else. Sir, I still have a family. Please let me go. The man's face was pale, and he kept begging for mercy."

Could it be that Reid had changed his mind?

Or had he already moved Evan elsewhere in exchange for money?

"At the thought of that, Calvin instantly had a bad feeling."

"If you can provide me with some valuable information, I might consider letting you go. Otherwise, I have no choice but to send you to the police immediately. Calvin was not willing to return empty-handed. From the information he received, Reid was going to transfer Evan to a local organization in a war-embroiled country. Once he sent Evan there, the consequences would be unimaginable."

"That was a place where there was war all year long. Let alone saving people, even if he sent his men there, they might not be able to return alive. What was more, it was a war regarding complicated religious beliefs that involved cruel terrorists."

"He wanted to save Evan before that happened. That was his top priority, and he had to fight for time, at the very least."

"The fact that Evan was still under Reid's control right then was a good opportunity. No matter what, he could not lose that opportunity to save him."

"Sir, I remember that Reid likes to go to a casino in the city. If they canceled their plans, then they would definitely be at the casino. Reid is good at gambling. After hearing Calvin's condition, the man thought for a while and told him some of the little information he knew."

"Casino? A streak of white light flashed through Calvin's mind. He pondered for a moment, and then nodded at Aron."

"I'll let you go today. You better stop doing this. If I see you next time, I'll kill you directly, Aron shouted at him and kicked him to the ground again."

Let's go. Calvin ordered in a deep voice. The group of people guarded Calvin as they walked towards the off-road vehicle outside the forest. "Soon, the off-road vehicle started and zoomed straight towards the direction of the city."
