Go After My Ex-wife -
Chapter 670 Interdependent Love
"At that time, Calvin was standing on the platform, looking at the hundreds of people below. For the moment, he did not see Luca and Liya, and he could not help but to frown slightly." "After he had finished ordering Maud to close the mansion, the captain of the security team had informed him about Letty's attempted escape. He feared that Liya might also try to escape. So, he had immediately instructed Luca to find Liya and bring her here."
"However, Luca had been gone for so long without news, that he couldn't help but to wonder if Luca could catch her in time."
"At that moment, Luca, who was in charge of finding Liya, hurried over and whispered, "Mr. Harvey, Liya is missing."""""
What? Calvin was alarmed. "Has she already escaped?"
"At that moment, Maud was counting the number of guests and staff below. Calvin's heart sank. He quickly walked to the microphone and asked in a deep voice, """Maud, is everyone here?"""" "Maud had worked in the mansion for years and was quick to act. All this time while he was counting the number of people, he was actually checking whether Liya was present. After some deliberation, he replied in a loud voice, ""Sir, Madam Belle and Liya aren't here.""""
"The moment those words came out of Maud's mouth, it was as if a bolt of lightning had streaked through dark clouds, jolting Calvin."
"He quickly turned around, walked down from the stage, and strode towards the mourning hall."
"Luca was also frightened when he heard this. However, he had not seen anyone inside the mourning hall just then when he passed by. What was going on? With this thought in mind, he walked towards the mourning hall as well."
The scene in the mourning hall was clear.
"When they were about to arrive at the mourning hall, Calvin's heart tightened. It was as if he had heard a cry from Belle, echoing in his heart. He felt so uneasy. Such panic was something he would never forget for the rest of his life."
He slowed down his pace and looked inside.
"Liya, I'm the only one who knows where the Ocean Heart is. If you want to get it, then you need my help. But you're pointing a knife at me. You know I'm carrying a child and can't stand being frightened. If I faint, or if my life is threatened, then I might forget where it is. Then, it'll be rather troublesome, don't you think? Belle had been backed into a corner by Liya. She looked at the gleaming knife in Liya's hand. It was the sharpest knife on the market and could cut through iron. If it was used on a person, then she wouldn't want to imagine how it would turn out."
"Her palms were covered with sweat. She could only try to placate her in a kind manner as she tried to stall for time. When Belle saw Calvin at the entrance of the mourning hall, she felt hopeful. Yet, her expression did not change. She only raised her voice, but her face was full of fear."
"Calvin was very sensitive to Belle's voice. However, he was shocked by the scene in front of him. His heart almost stopped beating."
"Liya had forced Belle to a corner. If it weren't for Belle's loud voice, then he would have run in just then because he couldn't see her."
"This would startle Liya, and she might have done something crazy."
"D*mn it, why didn't he think something like this would happen? He came back and Belle was by his side, but he had been careless and put his beloved wife in danger."
A surge of anger rose in his chest. His face was dark and his eyes were as sharp as an eagle's.
He had just returned from a battlefield. His body was still pumping with adrenaline. Who did Liya think she was?
"At that time, Liya and Belle were standing face to face, and they were very close to each other. The sharp knife in Liya's hand was aimed at Belle. He did not dare to launch an attack from a long distance because he was afraid that if there was even a slight mistake, Belle would be hurt."
"He carefully walked towards them. He didn't dare to be careless. At the same time, he signalled Belle and quietly approached Liya from behind."
"Stop playing tricks on me. Hurry up and take me to it, Liya shouted. She held the sharp knife in her hand and aimed it towards Belle's heart."
"Belle's face was pale. Her palms sweaty, she put her hands on her belly and saw that Calvin was only a step away. If Belle took Liya away right then, then she would see him."
"At that moment, Liya's vicious stare was wandering. She was on the verge of losing her cool. What if she was provoked and stabbed her with the knife? It was hard to imagine the damage she would cause." "Hence, she remained calm and said, ""Liya, put down your knife. I promise to give you the treasure. You should know that you're committing a crime while doing this. Now that there are police in the conference room, if you act like this, then they will take you away as soon as they see you. Even if you kill me, you won't be able to get the treasure, much less leave here. If I don't cooperate, then even if you get the Ocean Heart, you won't be able to escape. Have you forgotten about your uncle and his words to you before he died?""""
"As Belle spoke slowly, there was a trace of lingering fear in Liya's eyes, and her hand, which was holding the sharp knife, was shaking violently."
"So, take me to the treasure now, and then I can leave here immediately, she said through gritted teeth."
"No, even if I give it to you, you can't run away. They will find out that I am gone and come for me. Don't forget that we are in Harvey Manor. But if you have my help, then it will be different. Belle analyzed the situation very carefully for her."
Liya was a little confused by Belle's words.
Footsteps could be heard from outside.
"Liya panicked for a moment. After a moment of absent-mindedness, she heard a hissing sound. A large hand reached out from behind and grabbed her wrist. With a bit of force, an excruciating pain erupted from her wrist. Grunting, she let the sharp knife fall to the ground."
"Disgusting woman. Following a shout, Liya turned to look at Calvin's eyes that were bursting with a cold killing intent. Her heart skipped a beat. Before she could respond, Calvin grabbed her wrist and pushed her far away to the ground."
"B*tch. Committing a crime in the mourning hall. How dare you! At that time, Luca took a step forward and shouted at her angrily."
"Luca followed Calvin out of the center of the stage. When they had reached the door of the mourning hall, they had seen Liya wielding a bright knife at Belle. As for Calvin, he had seemed nervous, as if he did not dare to step forward. He immediately realized the danger."
"At that time, Calvin turned his head and gave Luca a look. Luca understood and immediately went back and summoned Finley and the other police officers."
"Therefore, when Calvin got hold of Liya, Finley and the rest rushed over."
"This woman is nuts. Finley looked at Liya, who was lying on the ground, trembling like a frightened bird. He snapped at the two policemen beside him and ordered, """Put some cuffs on her and bring her to the conference room.""""""
Yes. The two policemen beside her cuffed her hands and dragged her towards the conference room.
"As soon as Liya's knife fell to the ground, Belle knew that the danger had passed. She heaved a sigh of relief, and her body slumped onto the ground. After Calvin had gotten Liya away from Belle, he rushed to hold her in his arms, shouting nervously, ""Belle.""
Belle's long eyelashes fluttered slightly. She looked at Calvin. She wanted to cry but she held her tears back.
"The scene just then was really tense. When Liya was threatening her with a knife, she had been fearing for the child in her belly, as well as their child, Jerry. What would have happened if he lost his mother?" "I'm sorry, Belle. It's my fault. I failed to protect you. Calvin's face twisted with pain. He caressed her cheeks gently and soothed her in a deep and husky voice. It carried a sense of guilt. His eyes were filled with desolation."
"If something had happened to her that day, then how would he have lived?"
"After the police took Liya away, they all left knowingly, leaving them some space."
Calvin hugged her tightly in front of Sophia's memorial tablet. He closed his eyes slightly and enjoyed the momentary peace.
"Belle returned the embrace. As she smelled the familiar scent of the river water that made her feel at ease, tears welled up in her eyes."
"Belle, after we pass this threshold, we will live a happy and safe life. I will build an indestructible commercial kingdom. I will spare time to accompany you and our children, and make you the happiest woman in the world. Calvin wiped away the tears at the corners of her eyes, leaned his head in her hair, and assured her."
"After that incident, Belle finally believed that there was no possibility for Liya to turn over a new leaf. The sins she had committed had been too severe."
"She ran her fingers through his thick, black hair. With one arm wrapped tightly around his waist, she stared at him with a smile."
They had found the happiness that belonged to them.
"Calvin, you've obtained evidence against Yadriel, haven't you?"
Her eyes were full of spirit as she asked softly.
"Yes, I just came back from the battlefield in the war-torn country yesterday. Yadriel has smuggled the soldiers of the army to the battlefield. We have obtained enough evidence. His illegal deals will come to an end soon. Calvin raised his head, facing Sophia's memorial tablet."
"Tears welled up in Belle's eyes as she wrapped her arms around his neck. She said excitedly, "Calvin, Grandma would have been so happy to hear that.""""
