Go After My Ex-wife
Chapter 549 Where's The Groom?

"Belle stood there calmly and faced all the different gazes from other people indifferently. She was relaxed and could even talk and laugh freely. It seemed that she was smiling at everyone, but in fact, her gaze did not fall on anyone."

"While she was noble and kind, she also kept a distance from everyone else. Others couldn't figure her out. They felt as if they were researching a fine product, analyzing her with different perspectives and methods. The more they guessed, the more mysterious Belle was to them. In the end, she was even worshipped as a saint. That point was even more prominent among men." "Belle accepting her husband taking a second wife meant that other people could use it as a reason to seek love affairs in the future. Therefore, they all praised Belle highly."

"Belle knew all of that in her heart, but she acted as if she didn't hear anything and was very calm."

She didn't believe that Calvin would betRhys her. She still wasn't willing to believe that Calvin really wanted to marry Liya even up till that moment.

She wanted to see that Saturday with her own eyes and decide if she still had the chance to go out with Jerry and Calvin.

"She had to be cruel to herself. No matter how painful it was, she still had to stand under the spotlight. Even if there was a mountain of swords and a sea of flames in front of her, she was still willing to bear with the pain as she believed that she would find the answer."

The deciding moment was approaching little by little.

"Hudson and Albie Williamson were sitting in the reception room, talking and laughing. Hudson's face was flushed red, and he seemed happy. Albie Williamson also was in high spirits as he kept smiling." "When Belle entered, Albie Williamson's eyes fell on her. Then, he looked at her face as if he was sizing her up and trying to see through her."

Belle then showed a faint and smooth smile. Her smile was dignified and beautiful. Others couldn't bear to shift their eyes away from it. "Albie Williamson's eyes darkened, and an imperceptible sense of disappointment flashed across his pitch-black eyes."

"That woman was once a woman he wanted to pursue when he was in college, but he gave up after comparing himself with Calvin." He was sure that he couldn't gain the upper hand.

"Surely enough, after that woman married Calvin, she created legends one after another, and people had to look at her with new perspectives."

"Dad, the crucial moment has arrived. Belle walked in and said flatly to Hudson. Her expression was calm, and her tone was respectful."

"Oh. Hudson smiled gently. His somewhat dark eyes were filled with a hidden light. They seemed calm and gentle, but a trace of unease flashed across them for a moment, and it didn't escape Belle's sharp eyes."

Where's Paige? he asked.

"They had already agreed that Paige needed to be by his side on that day's wedding. She had to follow the process of getting the wedding bouquet handed to her by Liya and Calvin. Even if she didn't like it, she still had to put on an act."

"I'm here, I'm here. Before Hudson's voice had even faded, Paige's voice drifted from behind. Belle lifted her head and looked over, only to see that Paige was dressed in an exquisitely crafted gown with royal blue Sadiel patterns on its white base. Her makeup was exquisite. Even though she was already ageing, she still retained her charm and her every movement was very elegant and noble."

Didn't we agree to come here on time? Hudson frowned again after looking at her attire. "Why aren't you wearing something more festive?"

"I'm here, aren't I? Paige came over and muttered, "What's the point of coming here Tristany? To be laughed at by others?"""""

"You... Hudson glanced at her, and there was a hint of an insinuation in his eyes, but it faded away helplessly. """You're really something. You're not even as sensible as Belle. Right now, it's your son who's getting married."""""

"There was a disdainful expression on Paige's face. She pouted, but she didn't reply to Hudson. Instead, she turned to Belle and smiled kindly. """Belle, I'm sorry for making it difficult for you."" Belle showed a slight smile.

"Paige took her arm and walked to the lounge, leaving Hudson aside."

"With a helpless smile, Hudson could only beckon Albie Williamson towards the lounge as well."

"Madam, the wedding is about to begin, but the groom hasn't arrived yet. Where has Mr. Harvey gone? Just as Belle followed Hudson and Paige into the lounge behind the stage, Maud rushed in and said, """'The emcee has already started to call for us.'

Was that so?

"Belle's heart skipped a beat. For some reason, when she heard that Calvin had yet to appear on time, she actually felt a sense of joy in her heart. It was as if she was looking forward to such a situation happening. Although she felt that her thought wasn't virtuous, she could not help but to glance at the crowd with her beautiful eyes. Indeed, she saw no sign of Calvin's tall and majestic figure."

"His figure was so familiar that she could recognize it as long as she glanced towards the crowd. In the past, she had laid in his arms, and he had embraced her. Then, he would laugh loudly as they cuddled with each other intimately. They used to have a sweet and lovely relationship."

"However, right then, was he going to marry another woman? Would he not belong to her fully anymore?"

"Her heart ached, and tears almost rolled down her cheeks upon thinking of that."

"Didn't you call him? Hudson was lost in thought. When Paige heard that her son was missing, she became anxious and blurted out."

"Madam, I've made countless phone calls, but no one answered them, Maud explained hastily."

"Paige became even more anxious, but she seemed to have thought of something and stopped pressing on."

The wedding music was played on time.

The melodious voice of the emcee echoed on the stage.

"What's going on? Where's Calvin? While they were lost in their thoughts, they heard a rough male voice shouting in that direction. "Where has Calvin gone?"""""

Paige frowned and looked at him coldly.

Her face soon darkened.

"He had a dark face, triangular eyes, a medium-sized frame, and a thin chin. His sick face was full of arrogance."

"The man stood in the corridor, shouting loudly as if that was a vegetable market."

Hudson's face changed as well.

"Belle didn't know who that man was, but she heard Maud whispering, """Madam, this is Liya's father, Fadison Luther. He has had a serious kidney disease and a heart attack. He's also a gambling addict. Wher Elsie used to live in Harvey Manor, he often came here to extort and create trouble. Due to that, Sophia was so heartbroken that she drove Elsie and her daughter out."""""

"After Maud's explanation, Belle immediately understood."

It was likely that Fadison would act as he pleased as his daughter had married into the Harvey family right then.

She looked at him coldly.

"Look, you guys summoned such a man into Harvey Manor again. Surely you'll get angry more often in the future. Paige sighed as her voice was laced with grief and indignation." The light in Hudson's eyes burst forth and was slowly withdrawn.

"Hudson, where's your son? My daughter is now married to your son as the second wife even though she's still young, but the groom hasn't appeared yet, even when the time has come. Are you guys trying to bring shame to our Luther family? How will Liya be able to continue living in Harvey Manor in the future? No matter what, you have to give me an explanation. The wedding must begin on time. Fadison's eyes were sharp. When he heard the commotion, he immediately saw Hudson and the others walking out. He then approached them and questioned Hudson with a dissatisfied tone, who stood right in the middle." Hudson used to be a figure who once controlled A City and had a lot of power. What kind of a scene hadn't he seen before? Would he care about such a hooligan?

"At that time, he was against Evan. So, he didn't want to get involved in that matter. After all, Fadison was just a punk. So, he allowed him to mess around as he liked, but it was impossible for Hudson to accept Fadison acting like before right then."

"Why are you panicking? He bellowed in a deep voice, """The wedding hasn't even started yet. It's just the second wife. What's the big deal? Even if the groom doesn't come, it's not too much to take the bride in through the back door."""""

His tone was stern and full of authority with a dignified manner.

Fadison was stunned.

"At that time, Maud also immediately shouted, ""Fadison, take a good look. This is Mr. Hudson Harvey. It's not up to you to judge him. The fact that today's wedding is held is all in consideration towards your family. No matter how dissatisfied you are, the marriage can still be cancelled at any time. Harvey Manor doesn't value second wives as such at all. Right now, it's your daughter who's forcefully pestering Mr. Harvey. She's not someone whom Mr. Harvey has to marry no matter what.""""

"Fadison had always coveted the Harvey family's wealth. Since he was seriously ill right then, the only reason he came over was to try to get some money out of them."

"In his eyes, everything was good as long as he got to earn some quick cash. As for how his daughter's wedding turned out or whether she would be able to attain happiness, that was something he didn't care about at all. Since he managed to get involved with Harvey Manor, the benefits he could get would allow him to enjoy the rest of his life."

"After being reprimanded by Hudson, he started to feel guilty and stopped acting arrogant."

"Nevertheless, he was not willing to give up. He mustered up his courage to say, """My dear in-laws, no matter what, the wedding is about to begin. It's wrong not to have a groom. If Calvin doesn't come over soon, then I will tell the media that your prestigious family has gone back on your word and bullied us."

"He knew that those reporters, who were able to enter Harvey Manor at that time, were all bought off by the Harvey family. So, they wouldn't post any negative news and would only spread positive news with any means necessary."

"In reality, before the wedding, Hudson and Calvin had indeed made a big deal about it, as if they were afraid that the world didn't know about it. However, when the wedding was held, they rejected some other media outlets with ulterior motives for the sake of not wanting others to smear their reputation. Therefore, they only invited a few media reporters they trusted."

"Their plan was to capture Reid alive and rescue Evan. After that, they would immediately announce through the media that they would cancel Calvin's and Liya's wedding and the fact that Reid had kidnapped Evan, forcing Calvin to marry Liya. Of course, if Zoella was willing to take advantage to the situation and accuse Liya, then they would hand everything over to the police. In that case, they only needed to explain to the media, and everything would be fine."

"In that way, Harvey Manor would have nothing to do with everything anymore. Then, Liya and Zoella would fight each other, and they would then be able to use all their efforts in dealing with Yadriel." "With that, at the very least, they would be able to achieve their purpose by doing that."
