Go After My Ex-wife

Chapter 32 The Gift

She had wanted her beloved husband to accompany her, serve him tea, but it never happened, and

once in a dream, she burst into tears.

And today she had this brief moment realizing her dream, but her feeling was complicated!

He loves Lexie and he's going to marry her soon!

And she is nothing more than an outcast of his, who now kidnaps her with a complete advantage for

the benefit of his company. To put it bluntly, she is nothing more than a tool for the benefit of his

company.

Belle's heart ached vaguely.

That year at university, when the sun was setting, she came out of the library and met the masculine

and handsome Calvin, who smiled faintly at her, his dark eyes shining like jewels. He smiled to her and

looked into her heart.

At that, she blushed

In fact it was not the first time she had seen him; she remembered her first meeting with him when she

was only fifteen years old.

That day, her father, Ethan, took her to a party and she met his grandmother. The kind-hearted Sophia

took her hand and showed her concern, but her eyes fell on the handsome, somewhat shy boy beside

her. He was gloomy but steady, and his eyes were bright. She could not help but fall her eyes on him,

but he did not glance at her from the very beginning. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

He just kept staring out, and it was then that she felt upset about that.

Perhaps it was from then on that her fate was sealed!

Until now the pain is unbearable.

She took a deep breath. Deep down, she enjoyed the warmth of such a moment, even if it was only for

one night, even if he would marry Lexie tomorrow.

Once women fall in love with a man, she would lose her ego, but it was like self-destruction.

Belle felt herself irredeemable in such a state.

"What's on your mind?" Calvin had already finished his shower and came out of the bathroom, wearing

pajamas, which were soft against his rigid body, the mint scent of the shower gel faintly emanating.

Such a scent had enchanted and intoxicated Belle! If it had been three years ago, how happy it would

have been, but now they had been divorced.

Belle woke up with a start and found tears flowing from the corners of her eyes. She pursed her lips,

her tongue felt bitterness and the tip of her nose tingled as she hung her head.

That he was holding Lexie and talking softly to her lingered in her heart.

Calvin sat up on the opposite side of the sofa, a slight inexplicable light shifting in his eyes.

She was crying!

She was sad about signing the contract today, he guessed. He sighed slightly in his mind, but he was a

businessman and the mall was like a battlefield.

How could a woman who wouldn't even sign a contract stay in his company? And he was now going to

hand over all his most important secrets to her.

This is not in keeping with his character. She had to sign a contract, it is his principle, as well as and

the principle’s.

"Don't worry, as long as you can complete your mission and keep your promise, the pay you get from

Harvey Corp will never be less than Atkinson Corp's, trust me." His eyes burned, and the words he

spoke were resolute.

The bitterness in Belle's heart was even greater. In his eyes, it was always money and profit!

There was a slight sneer at the corner of his mouth and he stood up, facing her coldly.

Calvin held his head slightly high and surveyed her.

His gaze was blazed and stoic!

What he saw in Belle's eyes was disappointment, despair and coldness.

This woman is always like this. He had just spoken to her nicely, but she was ungrateful and seemed to

treat him like an enemy.

Calvin had never forced a woman before, but today his tactics were perhaps too overbearing, and this

was the first time he had used such a method to tie up a woman.

But he wouldn't admit it, he never thought he was wrong to do so.

"Starting tomorrow, your office moves to the 88th floor, next door to mine. The design department will

be set up tomorrow, so this next period will be a bit hard, you should be ready. Go to bed now." Calvin

was not used to Belle looking at him from above, so he immediately stood up and said solemnly.

"You'll sleep in the bedroom next to mine, let me know if you need anything." Calvin took the lead and

walked towards the bedroom, but then he threw a gold card to her, "If you need anything, go buy it."

He was gone, his distinctive faint mint smell still wafting through the air.

Soon, the light in his bedroom went out.

Belle didn't take his card and went to sleep in her bedroom too!

She didn't need anything, for the house had everything she needed, and Calvin had prepared

everything for her, including her personal items, all of which were of the highest quality.

Work gets into a hectic rush!

Over the next few days, Belle and Calvin went in and out of the office almost every day, and began to

prepare for the press conference's key project, the design of the car model.

Calvin is really crazy when he works, he can stay in front of the computer all night and do everything

himself.

The design department has moved next door to his office, and he spends almost every day in their

office, personally supervising the work, which makes the design staff suffer. No one would like to have

their boss standing next to them watching intently every day.

Under his round-the-clock supervision, the design staff are all in a high state of seriousness.

Belle also got into serious work.

After several days and nights in a row, Belle, who should have felt tired, was in high spirits.

"Here you go." When she returned to her flat in the evening, Belle was still meditating in front of her

computer, while Calvin walked in from outside and handed her a box.

"What's this?" She looked up, full of confusion. Calvin was indeed normal these days, not harassing

her, although sometimes they would argue over work matters, Belle could accept it.

Belle looked much better and was not as cold to him as before.

"Open it." A wry smile was on Calvin's face.

On a hunch, this should be a gift.

But would Calvin give her a gift? Belle felt a bit incredulous.

The box is beautifully packaged and at a glance she can tell that the contents are worth a lot of money.

The light spilled out of the box, which stunned her!

It is one of the newest Iphone, it is in gold color with glittering diamonds.

The light in the room is dime at the moment, but the sparkling diamonds are so crystal clear, beautifully

handcrafted, with smooth, shiny facets and a good weight to each one.

If the guess is right, this would have been custom made and not available on the market at all.

Those flashes of light shone so brightly that they made her eyes hurt, swell and sore.

As far as she can remember, this is the first time Calvin has given her a gift.

She blinked in disbelief, breathing heavily.

She pursed her lips, hands trembling slightly. Was she excited?

"It's Saturday, no need to work overtime, tomorrow I'm taking you to a place for a field trip." He said

indifferently, with nothing peculiar on his face, as if there was nothing wrong with giving her such a gift.

As Belle listened to his indifferent tone, the enthusiasm that had just surged up in her heart instantly

dropped.

Yes, for a man who spends a lot of money, such a gift is very common, not to mention that he has given

many gifts to women, so what's this to her?

She sucked in her breath, she was so close to be touched in tears.

Belle was annoyed and angry at this.

His phone rang.

"Where are you, Calvin? Hurry up, my mum and dad are waiting." Lexie said anxiously on the other

side of the phone.

"Oh, got it, I'll be right there." Calvin picked up his handbag from the sofa, ready to go out.

Belle realized that he was going out, and looked toward him, only to see in a fancy suit, which was

handmade by famous brand.

It was likely that he was going to a formal event in such a dressy outfit.

A trace of loss flashed through Belle's heart for no apparent reason.

Over the past few days, they had been spending time together day in and day out, and she,

surprisingly, had become so used to it that when she saw him go out, an inexplicable sadness would

well up in her heart.

In a panic to avoid him seeing it, she ducked her head.

Calvin headed for the door.

"Pass that file bag to me." Calvin turned his head and said politely towards Belle.

Holding back the uncomfortable feeling in her heart, Belle lifted her head and looked around, searching

for the file bag.

"It should be in the bedroom." Calvin reminded her.

He was standing right by the door waiting for her, and the moment Belle went to his bedroom, she felt it

empty.

Calvin's bedroom was neatly organized with not so much stuff.

A file bag lies on the mahogany cabinet, the cover is blank, but it was heavy.

Belle picked up the file bag and headed outside.

"Lexie, order your food first, I'm a bit stuck on the road here, but I'll be there soon." Calvin said to the

phone, not seeing Belle coming over.

Belle's body stiffened.

It turned out that he was going to meet with Lexie's parents.

Belle's heart instantly felt like it had been pricked by a needle. These days, their inseparability seemed

to have made her accustomed to it, and today, when he left, it was as if she had suddenly woken up in

a dream and had a brief moment of discomfort.

"Thanks." Calvin put away the phone and reached out to take the file bag handed over by Belle. Before

he left, he glanced back at Belle, asking with a hint of surprise, "Are you not feeling well?"

"No, no." Belle shook her head, then put on a smile, "Bye."

Calvin glanced at her, pondering, but turned away.
