Go After My Ex-wife

Chapter 28 Their Marriage

"Calvin, see that? This woman is in our company yet she is cuddling with our biggest competitor, she

clearly has impure intentions. She must not be allowed to stay in Harvey Corp, let alone be the

manager of the design department!" Lexie snapped justifiably.

Calvin's face was full of anger, and his gloomy eyes stared at Belle.

"What's all the fuss about!" A man dressed in a suit and wearing a greasy haircut walked in. He had a

smile on his lips, handsome and charming.

"Martin, what brings you here?" Paige's face sank at first sight of this man, full of displeasure, but she

still managed to squeeze out a smile.

But Martin Harvey smiled daintily and freely, did not look at anyone, but he walked straight towards

Belle, raised his hand and patted Belle's shoulder, "Belle, you're back and you didn't tell me, fortunately

I only found out about it when I overheard your mother, so I rushed over as soon as I heard about it."

Martin has a casual and soft voice, but reveals a superiority that is a challenge to Calvin.

Belle dodged to the side, Martin's hand that patted her shoulder for the second time fell short. He froze

and couldn't help but laugh, "Belle, you're still as cold and noble as you were in college."

"Martin, what do you want from me?" Belle was very surprised by Martin's arrival.

When she was still at university, she had a persistent suitor, Martin, who was obsessed with her and

stalked her all day long. He was rude to her several times when he got drunk, but she avoided it, so

she did not like Martin, for she felt that he had a deep heart that she could not see through. She likes

people who are decisive and capable in their career, but simple in their life and have a clear sense of

love and hate, like Calvin.

Martin is the son of Evan Harvey. When his grandfather was alive, he stipulated that all the

descendants of the Harvey family must follow the path of combining government and business, that is,

one must be in politics and the other in business. At that time, the old man saw that Martin was deep in

heart, so he designated the branch of Evan to be in politics. Calvin was smart and sensible to business,

so he trained Calvin into a businessman.

Of course, the Harvey family's ancestral wealth was distributed on a per capita basis and he would not

favour anyone.

The old man believed that young people were not yet stable enough until they married and had

children, so his last words made it clear that this ancestral family fortune would only be officially divided

when the children and grandchildren in the Harvey family married.

As expected, Martin did not live up to his expectations and became the head of the Finance

Department at a young age, and his goal was clear, to take over the position of Mayor of A City.

Harvey Corp, led by Calvin, is also unrivalled and dominant in A City.

If his grandfather were to know, he would be pleased!

"Martin, what are you doing here instead of going to work?" Calvin's face became even more

unpleasant. Since he was young, he had never liked this cousin, always feeling that he was too

complex-minded, not bright enough in his methods and acting too viciously.

"It seems that you all care about me. I didn't expect to meet so many of you, I just wanted to come over

to see Belle - my former sister-in-law." Martin grinned towards Calvin and deliberately spoke of his

former sister-in-law with great emphasis, "It seems that I've met something interesting."

Calvin's face became even darker, and his eyes were like sharp swords.

Martin is scheming, but his fondness for Belle did not escape Calvin's eyes, and he saw it clearly when

he was in college that year.

The past flashed in his mind and his heart rose even more with anger.

He narrowed his eyes, with coldness inside.

He pursed his lips at this time, "Miss Alice is the designer that my company hired, it's not convenient to

meet guests now during working hours. And you, the head of the Finance Department, came to visit my

company's female staff during working hours, do you think this will be good to spread out? Don't forget

what grandpa once taught you."

The warning in Calvin's words was strong. His grandfather had stated that: Martin, who was in politics,

could not be too deeply in love with women, and for the sake of the family's interests, he could only

marry Rosa Perry, the only daughter of General Perry of the capital's military community, and it was

useless no matter who he was in love with. This was an iron order that had to be obeyed, and that after

marriage he must behave will, so that no one could be picky about her, thus not to affect his political

career.

When Calvin warned out, Martin's face darkened, he looked at Belle and spoke, "Of course, I'm here

for the Harvey family's official business."

The muscles on Calvin's face moved, revealing a mocking smile, taking him for a fool. Could he hide

his love for Belle from his eyes? The light in his eyes went out, and suddenly, with a very light smile, he

opened his mouth to Lexie, "Lexie, it's time to go to work, you go and check the work situation of all

departments, and punish all those who violate discipline severely."

His voice was not loud and the staff in the corridor suddenly all dispersed and were soon in their

places.

"Mom, since you're here, go to my office and have a seat first." Calvin held Paige with a gentle smile,

and although his tone was consultative, he did not allow her to object.

Paige, who comes from a wealthy family and has always experienced the complexities of the business

world, knew that what happened today would not be good for the company, not to mention the fact that

Martin had come over.

Soon, the office was alone with Belle.

It was only when the surrounding area was terribly quiet that Belle slumped into the soft chair and

curled up in the recliner, her eyes tightly closed.

She didn't know why Calvin didn't kick her out right away, and she wondered what he would think. Was

it because Martin had come over to relieve her, or would he come after her later?

Martin and Calvin stayed in a conference room for more than half an hour and then Martin left in a

blaze of glory.

"Calvin, sack that woman. Even if she has great abilities, she won't think about the Harvey Corp, let

alone do anything for the Harvey Corp sincerely, so don't be delusional! Think about it, Atkinson Corp is

such a good company, and Rhys treats her so well, what reason does she have to work for Harvey

Corp instead? She certainly loves money, and the money in the Atkinson Corp is no less than ours, so

if you think about it with a little brain, you can understand." Calvin had just walked in and sat down

when Paige advised bitterly, "What's more, she's a troublemaker, so many men are surrounding her, it's

not good for our company's image."

After a moment of silence, Calvin nodded and said, "Mom, don't worry, I will definitely give you a

satisfactory answer."

Only then did Paige nod in satisfaction.

"Calvin, since I'm here today, I have to put your marriage with Lexie into practice. Mayor Johnson

keeps calling these days, although he didn't say anything, I know what he means. He must want you to

marry Lexie. Lexie has been with you for a long time and she is not that young, you should give her a

wedding now. What do you think? "Paige sat on the sofa, her hands resting lightly on her knees, noble

and generous, at this time she returned to the posture of that noble woman, high above, overlooking all

beings, also has her majesty as a parent.

Calvin frowned slightly, a chill flashed in his bright eyes, he said lightly, "Mom, don’t worry, I have my

own plan. By the way, Grandma's birthday is coming up, this year is Grandma's 90th birthday, shouldn't

we organize the party?"

Calvin made a perfunctory remark and changed the subject, not wanting to discuss his marriage too

much. He never liked people to coerce him, especially in matters of marriage, just as his grandmother

used to force him to marry Belle, and it turned out that they really weren't happy after their marriage.

He had thought about marrying Lexie and was prepared to do so, but he did not like being forced by

others, otherwise he would feel that his life would be manipulated and that was a bad feeling.

The fact that Mayor Johnson was on the phone with Paige, which was more or less a forced marriage,

made his heart vaguely unhappy.

"All you have in your eyes is your grandmother." Paige was not happy, her face sulked as Calvin

mentioned his grandmother, "She said that her birthday should not be a big celebration. She is old now,

she just wants to have peace and quiet, she does not want to be disturbed. She has given the word

that the family members will just gather for a party."

Something occurred to her and she said seriously, “How is Camphor Villa going? That is not a small

project, you also know that our Harvey Corp’s luxury cars have not yet established a firm foothold in the

world, at present the real money is still the real estate in A City. You should pay more attention to it.

Mayor Johnson said, if this land has any problem, he will take care of it."

It annoyed Calvin. The Camphor Villa is a long-term investment of Harvey Corp. A few years ago,

Calvin was optimistic about the real estate industry, and has long ago bought it. In the last two years,

the city municipal construction followed up, soon the underground was to be opened, so the price of

land went all the way up. It was to make a lot of money, but something happened.

The local residents of Q Town have petitioned the top for several years to relocate the original waste

incinerator near the residents to the vicinity of Q Town, and that has become almost a bad nightmare

for the Camphor Villa complex.

The consequences of a high-end villa complex that sits next to a waste incinerator can only be

imagined!

If this proposal is approved by the A municipality, it will mean that this high-end villa complex will be in

the company of a waste incinerator, which will mean that the price of the villa will go down, not to

mention whether it will be sold.

The Camphor Villa Group, located on the shores of Hills and Lake, and the most crucial thing is that it

is not very far from the city. It is definitely the highest-end villa complex in A City. There will be

thousands of villas surrounding Castle Peak Lake, which is a great feat in history.

It will be home to a large number of the city's upper class elite.

A very good project, already developed in its first phase and selling well, has been delayed by the

sudden arrival of a waste incinerator.

This was already giving Calvin a headache, and today Martin came over for the same reason.

If there was care from Lexie's father, perhaps this rubbish incinerator would change its address, but

...... As Calvin was pondering, Lexie walked in modestly.

When she saw Calvin, her cheeks flushed. She wanted to come over, but because Paige was here,

she had to come towards Paige first and put her arm around Paige’s shoulders and said, "My dad said

that we're going to have a family gathering this weekend, is that okay?"

"Okay, okay." Paige, who was being hugged by Lexie, immediately smiled and agreed, "I'll leave this to

Calvin, he's the man and he should make the arrangements."

Lexie tilted her head and looked towards Calvin, who was sitting in front of his office looking at his

computer, his face calm, not objecting.

"Well, you guys need to get busy with your work, I'll leave first." Paige said and stood up, heading

outside.

"Mom, I'll see you off." Calvin stood up. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

"No need, you guys are busy, I have a maid with me." Paige flatly refused, once she had also stayed at

the company day and night and worked hard, of course she knew how hard it was to fight for work, so

she took the initiative to leave. If it wasn't for Belle, she wouldn't have had to come here and stir them

up.

"Calvin." As Paige had just left, Lexie ran to Calvin, wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him

on the face, "Calvin, my father said that this Saturday our two families will have dinner to finalize our

marriage. I am so happy we will never be apart again in this life."

Lexie's eyes were watery as she looked at Calvin and laid her head on his chest, her heart overjoyed.

She couldn't wait any longer, she had to hurry and let Calvin marry her, only then could she settle

down.

The man in front of her, however, pulled her away nonchalantly and replied indifferently, "I know."

Lexie blushed. As long as he said yes, she would not care about his attitude. Men are like that, right?

Let alone such a noble man as Calvin, naturally he would not be so active in the marriage matter.

"Lexie, I've said many times that you should pay attention to your image in the office." Calvin reiterated

once again, a layer of cold frost over his handsome face.

"Calvin, we will soon be husband and wife, not to mention that there are no outsiders here, so why be

so formal?" Lexie beamed.

Calvin's brows were knitted tightly and his face was tense.

"Lexie, was it you who told my mother that Belle had come to work at Harvey Corp? You were also the

one who showed the newspaper to my mother today, right?"

Calvin's voice was not loud, but every word was cold and discontented, he was not actually asking, he

was simply scolding her for sure.

Paige never had the habit of reading the newspaper in the morning. After she woke up in the morning,

she had to go for a walk in the garden, had breakfast, put on her make-up and read the newspaper all

at noon.

Lexie's face suddenly turned white, and after a pause, she flung herself into Calvin's arms, her eyes

brimming with tears.
