Go After My Ex-wife
Chapter 574 Love Me Tender

Brooklyn would hold a gathering like this once a year but Belle was seldom invited.

"However, Brooklyn had made an exception for Belle to attend his birthday party." Zoella had always felt superior over Belle since young.

"Although Ethan was also a high-ranking civil servant, it really didn't mean anything!"

"Why was Belle invited to the party? On the surface, the party was held to celebrate Brooklyn's birthday but that party was grander and carried way more significance than any other event held in the past." "The elders had chosen the candidate to be Calvin's wife. If she guessed correctly, Sophia also expressed her opinion regarding this to Brooklyn at the party."

She was enraged. Her cool and handsome Calvin. She could guarantee that Calvin never knew who Belle was. He never would have noticed her.

"He only entertained Rosa, and Hattie Patel was always pestering him. He wouldn't have acknowledged Belle's presence and definitely wasn't aware of her existence."

"Zoella, on the other hand, was different. She often attended such gatherings and had known Calvin for a long time. Why would Sophia secretly pick Belle, whose family were not as prominent and wealthy, to marry Calvin?"

Sergio went into a fit of rage when he heard the news but no one knew the pain Zoella was experiencing.

"She was arrogant and egotistical. She thought Calvin would fall head over heels for her. She thought she was capable and intelligent, and would be the perfect candidate to marry into Calvin's rich and powerful family. Only Zoella was worthy of him. They would be a compatible pair and she could help his career propel much further. She believed that she was the only one who could take good care of Harvey Manor and be a great leader of the family."

"However, everything changed quickly."

"In an intense business competition, Mars was defeated by Hudson and had to move out of A City. Everything changed from then on."

"When the news of Calvin's and Belle's marriage broke out, she kept herself in the dark. She was miserable, and on the brink of going crazy. It turned out that after all these years, she had never fallen in love with another man again. Calvin was her ultimate goal. There would never be a man in the world who could be better than Calvin. She came to that conclusion after repeated consideration."

"Zoella was clever and calculative and when the news came out that Calvin and Belle were not on good terms, she laughed coldly."

She had been paying attention to Calvin. She was certain that he had never seen Belle and would definitely not have any feelings for her.

She wanted Calvin to suffer from the torments of love. Only then would he realize her importance to him and pursue her.

"However, that day never arrived."

"No, I won't lose. She gritted her teeth, and the words trembled between her teeth. She raised her head and saw Sergio staring at her coldly. His eyes were full of ridicule and mockery. Her heart sank gradually."

Sergio glanced at her and then turned around to walk outside.

"Sergio, is it really the end? Are you going to give up completely? Haven't they been exposed for the luxury car incident? You can use it against the Harvey Group and punish them according to the law. Zoella stopped him and asked expectantly."

"Sergio stopped in his tracks, with a cold expression on his face."

How could he let the Harvey Group off the hook and let Calvin stir up trouble for Yadriel's election?

"However, this woman didn't seem to be of much value. She was at her wit's end now. The promises that Zoella made concerning her business in Capital City, as well as the attempt to help him recover the Xanthe family properties, were all in vain as Calvin had forcefully taken back the assets."

This woman wasn't of much help at all. She even almost ruined the plan by removing Liya from the game.

What do you propose we do? He took a step back and questioned sternly with a stoic expression.

Zoella took a step back fearfully and looked at him helplessly.

Sergio's gaze was full of mockery. He turned around and left.

"Sergio, Calvin went to Capital City yesterday. Were you aware of that? The corner of Zoella's mouth was covered with a thin layer of frost and the tone of her voice was sinister."

"Sergio, who was striding away, stopped immediately."

"What did you say? Calvin had gone to Capital City? He turned his head, looking surprised. His eyes filled with questions."

"Sergio hung around in Harvey Manor everyday. Yet, he didn't know that Calvin had visited Capital City. Could it be true? He felt a chill running down his spine even though his back was scorching from the sun just moments before."

"Zoella noticed his expression changed from surprise to panic, and even fear. She couldn't help but to let out a cold snort. It seemed that this man was not as capable as he looked!"

"You will never guess who Calvin visited at Capital City. If I were you, then I would not stand here quietly and bask in the sun. Zoella took charge of the conversation and spoke, fanning the flames to stir up his emotions."

Who? Sergio asked cautiously in a cold tone.

Zoella wasn't in a hurry to speak. She raised her eyebrows and chuckled. She crossed her arms in front of her and stared at the sea.

"Do you think I will trust you? Sergio could not guess what she had up her sleeve. Was she bluffing him? Looking at her mysterious expression, it seemed that there was no reason for him to distrust her."

"The Xanthe family had ears and eyes all over Capital City. Yet, he didn't receive any news that mentioned Calvin's presence. However, this woman, who was thousands of miles away, knew about it. Was she joking?"

He had a reason not to believe her.

It's your choice whether or not you believe me. You have to admit that Calvin is more powerful than you. He went to Capital City but your family didn't know about it. What do you think it means? It shows that he can fool you as he wishes. It's by no means easy if you want to succeed. Zoella curled her lips and commented sarcastically as she smiled happily.

Sergio's mind was in a mess. What exactly was this woman trying to say?

Are you saying that Calvin went to Capital City to meet Luqman? He took a step forward and asked in a low voice. A moment of panic crossed his eyes.

Zoella scoffed. "What else could it be? Visiting your family and getting on good terms with you?"

Sergio's face turned pale and he clenched his fist.

He strode towards Harvey Manor.

"Honey, come here. Be careful. There's a branch here. Be mindful of your belly. Calvin had his arm around Belle's shoulder as they strolled in the Ink Garden's lawn. He would take some time to accompany Belle for a walk everyday and tried his best to amuse her on their walks."

He had said that he wanted her to be the happiest pregnant woman in the world.

Belle looked down and felt amused. Was that considered a branch? It was just the crabapple tree's newly grown baby branch with a few tender green leaves. It wouldn't hurt her at all even if she accidentally stepped on the branch!

He was so concerned about her and she felt extremely loved.

"Calvin bent down carefully and pushed the branch away, using his legs to block it. Then, he placed his arm around her waist and slowly walked over."

Belle was wearing a light blue grass-printed dress and her hair was tied in a ponytail. She appeared charming and lovely.

Calvin held her hand tightly as they paced on the pebbled path in the Ink Garden's lawn.

"Belle, we haven't decided on the official name for Jerry yet. Why don't we wait until the birth of our second baby, and think of a name for them together? Calvin suggested in a tender tone."

Belle smiled at him.

"Jerry was already three years old, but Calvin still hadn't given him an official name. It wasn't because he didn't want to name him, nor was it because he couldn't think of a name. Rather, Calvin insisted on getting the blessings and guidance from the famous priest in the city to name Jerry. The priest was on a pilgrimage and had not been back for a few years. Naturally, Jerry's christening had been delayed until the priest's return."

"The descendants of the rich and powerful families were always named after much consideration. She understood the significance of choosing an official name. So, she never refuted his intentions. She had no choice but to let him be."

"Honey, did you drink the soup today? How much did you drink? Calvin nagged."

He had personally checked on her food intake and activities for the past few days. She felt restricted and helpless.

She was not as frail as Calvin thought but Calvin was willing to prove his love and gave his attention to her. She accepted it wholeheartedly.

"I ate everything according to your request, she answered softly."

Calvin's large hand slipped from her shoulder all the way to her waist.

"Your small waist feels really nice in my arms. Calvin giggled. At the thought of Belle's slender waist and supple skin, Belle was as beautiful as ever even after giving birth to Jerry. They were having a second child then. Would she still be as beautiful? He was enchanted by how she looked when she was moving her waist on top of him. He couldn't suppress his desire as he thought. A lascivious but charming smile appeared on his face. He wrapped his arms around her waist even tighter."

"Belle's waist changes were sacrifices she made for bearing his children. No matter how Belle looked in the future, Calvin would still love her."

"He gently touched her waist with his fingers, which tickled Belle and made her laugh."

"Calvin, take your stinking hands away. It's ticklish. She smiled, pursing her red lips. Calvin felt lustful as her soft voice quivered."

"Calvin and Belle haven't had s*x ever since she was pregnant. Her pregnancy wasn't very stable yet as it had only been a month. So, he did not dare to touch her."

"However, Calvin had a high libido. Every night, he went to sleep holding Belle's tight body. He was aroused yet unable to satisfy his s*xual desire."

Women were sensitive to this matter. Belle knew clearly how Calvin felt but she kept quiet without exposing him.

"Why don't you let me know where I should put my hands, then? Calvin looked at her plump breasts and gulped. Belle's breasts had become even more plump ever since she got pregnant. Calvin grinned and asked flippantly. He moved his hands from her waist to her chest as he spoke and held her soft breasts in his huge warm palms."

Belle's face turned red in an instant.

You're such a pervert. Grandma is sick and on her deathbed and yet you are here thinking about such things. Belle gently patted his hand and gave him a side-eye.

Calvin's playful smile froze immediately upon the mention of his grandmother. His hands fell to his side.

"The sound of footsteps came from the front and a scoff rang out, that was loud enough for them to hear."

Both of them raised their heads.
