Go After My Ex-wife
Chapter 743 You Must Not Look For A Stepmother For Me

"Martin, what happens if Calvin continues on like this? He's still young. He can't go on living like this, can he?" Rosa's eyes crinkled with concern. It did not matter what he did, for Rosa wouldn't be able to watch. If he remarried, then Jerry would be too pitiful. If he did not remarry, then he could not go on like this anymore. After all, Calvin was still young. Besides, he was a talented man with a successful career. She knew that he wouldn't be short of any pursuers.

She felt extremely irritated at the thought of this. She hated Zoella and Lexie to the core.

"I despise both Zoella and Lexie with passion. We should have made them suffer for what they've done. It was such a waste to let them die just like that," Rosa said with hatred.

"You're right."Martin held her hand tightly and sighed. "There's no good karma for being a good person in this world. Good people don't live long. It is so unfair."

"Martin, I just want to tell you that no matter how busy you are, no matter what you encounter in the future, you must find a way to help Calvin. You have to manage the company well, or else it will be hard on Calvin," Rosa ordered seriously.

"Yes, my wife," Martin immediately responded.

Calvin arrived at the bedroom on the second floor. He washed up, having no intentions to leave the room again that day.

Just as he was about to get ready for bed, he heard a slight noise by the door.

"Jerry, come in," Calvin shouted towards the door.

After a while, Jerry, who was pacing back and forth at the door, entered the bedroom. Aunt Ella had helped to get him cleaned up and he was then dressed in a comfy T-shirt. At that moment, Jerry looked handsome and cool.

Calvin could not see his handsome face, but his voice sounded particularly like Belle's.

Jerry's features looked more like Calvin and bore a little resemblance to Belle. With such an impressive gene pool, it was no surprise Jerry turned out to be a pretty attractive kid. This was also the reason why everyone adored him. It was just that his voice sounded very similar to Belle's.

"Dad, do you miss Mom?" Jerry walked in and asked loudly.

Upon hearing his voice, Calvin thought of Belle. He instantly felt a pang of sadness in his heart and became slightly absent-minded.

Jerry sighed when he saw Calvin in a daze.

"Boy, why are you sighing at such a young age?" Calvin was finally brought back to reality by Jerry's sigh. For some reason, he was a little annoyed. His son was already sighing at such a young age. "C'mere, son." He held out his hand to him.

When Jerry saw this, he obediently walked up to him.

Whenever he was in a situation like this, Calvin would always dote on him. Of course, he understood this point.

Calvin bent down and picked him up.

He stroked his head and asked lovingly, "Jerry, do you miss Mom?"

"Yes, I miss her a lot, but she'll never come back, will she?" Jerry said as tears started to well up in his eyes.

"No, she will come back. I'm sure she cannot bear to part with you and me. She'll definitely come back." Calvin really did not know how to explain to Jerry the meaning of life and death. He could only comfort him like this.

In fact, as soon as Calvin had woken up on the day of the incident, he had immediately gathered a search and rescue team to try and scour for Belle's body in the river. However, after hours and hours of searching, they had only managed to find Lexie's body. Belle's body was nowhere to be found.

He had spent a mad amount of time trying to find Belle's body, but since the water current had been raging, even until that day he was without any news about it. Nothing belonging to Belle had been discovered, and it seemed as though she had disappeared from the river.

Logically speaking, if a pregnant woman like Belle had fallen into such a deep river, the possibility of surviving was very slim. Even though they were unable to find her body, they could not rule out the possibility of her being dead, because the chance of her surviving was little to none.

After all, the river current had been too strong. After the branch flowed into the moat, the scope and depth of the river elevation were beyond his imagination.

Some time ago, when they had begun clearing up the debris on Sunshine Mountain, the police had managed to find Zoella's body. She had been burned beyond recognition.

Due to all the crimes that Zoella had committed, the Public Security Department had decided to search her house and the Mariya Church on Sunshine Mountain. They had unearthed no small amount of evidence, as well as some of Zoella's men. Her men had exposed all of Zoella's crimes to the police.

The police had reopened Octavia's case according to the evidence that they had collected. In the end, Octavia's prison sentence was reduced to one year. In the same year, she had been released from prison and had returned to Sovento to reunite with her mother and brother.

Calvin refused to believe that Belle was dead. He would only come to terms with it when he saw her body. As long as he did not see it, he would not admit that she had died.

"Then, Dad, when will Mom be coming back to see me? Everyone says that she's already dead," Jerry asked pitifully, tears dripping down his eyes.

Calvin hugged him tightly, feeling stabs of pain in his heart.

"Jerry, Mom had always hoped that you would grow up and be a useful person in society, am I right?" he asked in a gentle tone.

Jerry thought for a moment, and then he nodded.

"That's right. If you study hard and be a good boy, then I'm sure Mom will come back and see you," Calvin explained, after thinking for a moment. When Jerry heard this, he nodded his head seriously.

"Alright, then. Dad, from now on, I'm going to study diligently. I want to show Mom what a good boy I am," Jerry replied solemnly, his chest puffed out.

"That's my boy." Calvin felt a twinge of pain in his heart. He smiled in relief and caressed his soft hair.

"But, Dad, you have to promise me something." Jerry thought of one very important matter, and immediately brought it up.

"What is it?" Calvin was caught by surprise. He had no idea what request his witty son would have. He had a hunch that something was going to happen when Jerry had come to him, but he wasn't sure what it

was.

"Dad, you're not allowed to find me a stepmother. You are not allowed to remarry, alright?" Jerry stared into Calvin's eyes as he spoke in a very earnest manner.

Oh, so that was it! This young fellow can still be very soft.

Calvin paused for a moment and smiled. He made a solemn promise to Jerry. "I can promise you this. I will not remarry and that your Mommy will be my only wife in this lifetime. Don't worry, I promise I will not look for a stepmother for you in the future."

He said it very seriously. It sounded as if he was mumbling to himself, yet it also came across as if he was making a promise to himself.
