Go After My Ex-wife
Chapter 758 Kate's Doubts

The sea breeze blew through Lilian's hair, and she took the opportunity to wipe away the tears from the corner of her eyes.

One year ago, she had passed out after witnessing Belle as she fell off a cliff into the fast-flowing river down below.

She deserved to be called a big shot as the first thing she did after waking up was rush to the hospital. She made a prompt decision and ordered for someone to prepare the helicopter to fly Kate over to Europe for treatment.

During the past year, she came up with all sorts of ways to hide Belle's death from Kate.

Social media was so advanced those days. It was impossible to hide the truth from her if they continued living in the country.

Lilian wasn't sure how much longer she was able to hide the truth from Kate, but one thing she knew for sure was that Kate would be devastated when she learnt the truth about Belle's death.

However, her body was in no condition to bear such an emotional pain.

This was too miserable!

During the past year, Lilian had endured a great amount of pain. She would always cry herself to sleep thinking about Belle.

However, she could not show it in front of Kate. She was afraid of being seen through by her, so she tried her best to put on a smile.

But the problem was, how long was this going to last?

Kate was silent for a while and deliberately avoided Lilian's question. She said, "Madam Lilian, if I'm not mistaken, Belle is due soon. Do you think she'll be having a boy or girl? I hope she brings her baby over soon."

Lilian's heart ached when she heard her daughter's words. It took everything to hold back her tears.

"Kate, Belle's still in confinement. She has just given birth and her body is weak. That's why she can't come to visit you. Didn't she tell you that she'd come to visit you once you've recovered?" Lilian said as she looked into the distance with watery eyes. Although her voice was calm, she could not hide her grief.

Kate was a little stunned. Her eyes lit up as she said, "I'm a grandmother again. So, did Belle give birth to a baby boy or girl?"

"It's a girl," Lilian replied as pushed Kate's wheelchair with both hands and slowly walked forward. Her voice came out as a soft whisper against the wind. She wondered when this was torture going to end. She knew that she would not be able to hide the truth from her any longer.

One day, the truth would come to light.

When the day came, what was she to do?

She closed her eyes.

"A girl? That's great. Girls are caring. Belle is very caring. She is my pride and joy." Kate's face was flushed. She was extremely excited.

"You're right, girls are much more caring." Lilian murmured, "Kate, when are you going to take care of me? When are you going to address me as 'Mom'?"

Lilian asked expectantly. Kate could hear the anticipation in her voice. Her face was dull and her expression was blank. She did not know what to think.

In the past year, Lilian had personally taken care of her until she was fully recovered. She even kept her out of danger.

She was able to see Lilian's sincerity.

Lilian also chose the right time to reveal her identity slowly. She did her best to make her accept her.

If she was unhappy, then she would not force her to accept her as her mother.

In the past year, Lilian had taken care of her very meticulously. Lilian would try her best to give her whatever she wanted. She wanted to make up for the pain of not growing up with a mother. She granted whatever she asked for.

Kate could sense her motherly love for her.

She was not a cold-hearted woman and she knew how sincere Lilian was. She was initially indifferent but had gradually come to accept her as her mother.

Although she did not address her as 'Mom', deep down, she had already accepted her as her mother. What was left for Kate to do was to call her 'Mom' out loud.

But she just could not bring herself to do it.

She was just waiting for the right moment.

As for what was considered the right moment, she did not know either.

However, everyday she longed for Belle.

She wanted to see her only daughter. She longed for her so much that she even suspected that Lilian had kidnapped her and brought her here. She wondered whether there was any conspiracy in this. Was Lilian afraid that she would not accept her?

This kind of confusion often made her feel uneasy.

She lowered her head and did not speak for a long time.

"Madam Lilian, Miss Bennett, Mr. Harvey is here," Quina said with a smile, walking over from the back garden.

Both Madam Lilian and Kate were taken away from their thoughts.

"Let him in." Kate's eyes were filled with hope.

Calvin would come by almost every month to visit Kate ever since Lilian had brought her to Europe, and every time he came, he would give her an update about Belle.

Calvin would always dispel any doubts that she had. Until that day, she believed that Belle was still living happily in Harvey Manor. It was just that she could not travel long distances because she was pregnant But she knew she would be able to reunite with her daughter soon.

"Hi, Mom, Grandma." Calvin walked in with a rAl Diarnt smile on his face.

"Calvin, you're here!" Kate's impression of Calvin had completely changed after being kidnapped by Sergio. Right then, she treated him as her own son. He was especially close to her and she felt a sense of dependence on him.

"Mom, have you been feeling good lately?" Calvin approached her and asked with concern.

"Yes, I'm almost completely recovered," Kate replied with a smile. She then looked into his eyes. "Calvin, your eyes are almost healed, right?"

"Yes, Mom, it's almost healed. It's still in the recovery period," Calvin replied carefully.

"Ah, you should have sought treatment earlier. You should be careful when you drive next time. You must not allow such a thing to happen again," Kate reminded him with concern.

Calvin could not hide the fact that his eyes were injured. Hence, he had no choice but to tell Kate that one night, when he had been driving, he accidentally knocked into someone else's car. His eyes were blinded by the sparks from the collision.

Kate believed him. In fact, she could not imagine such a dangerous scene. Calvin's explanation was also very reasonable.

"Don't worry, Mom, it will not happen again." Calvin quickly promised and handed the bag of supplements in his hand over to Quina, who was standing aside.

Quina accepted the bag and brought it into the villa.

"Calvin, who's taking care of Belle while she's in confinement? She needed someone to take good care of her while she recuperates from childbirth. That way, she will not feel tired when she gets old in the future," Kate asked with concern.

Calvin was stunned for a moment and quickly understood that Madam Lilian had lied to her. He immediately replied with a smile, "Mom, don't worry. Belle is the apple of my eye. I will not let her suffer one bit. She deserves the best there is."

"That's good. I trust you." Kate smiled and said, "Tell her to take good care of herself. I'll go and see her when I am fully recovered."
