But how could she, as weak as she is, to shake off Calvin who is crazy and strong? At this moment, Calvin only wants to have her, to possess her.
In her desperation, she asked, "Calvin, aren't you in love with Lexie? Aren't you going to marry her? How are you going to explain to her?"
Calvin stiffened and stopped his rampage, his sanity returning gradually, lifting his eyes.
It was also at this point that a mellifluous mobile phone rang like a magic tone.
Calvin slowly let go of Belle and stood up, pulling out the mobile phone in his trouser pocket, frowning as Lexie's name was displayed on the wide screen.
"Calvin, where are you?" Calvin picked up the phone, only to hear Lexie's pouting voice.
"What's wrong, Lexie?"
"My stomach hurts." Lexie said painfully on the other end of the phone, "Calvin, I want to see you."
Joanne pleaded softly, her voice laced with the slightest drawl of pain.
Calvin froze, his expression complicated, before his eyes floated past the scene three years ago when Lexie stayed with him all night in his office to give advice to Harvey Corp in the midst of a storm.
It was the scene that triggered her stomach problem, her face pale and her arms tightly wrapped around him, crying out in pain. It was the scene that was so vivid in his mind and every time he thought about it, he felt sorry for her. That was why he was so lenient with her.
"Lexie, lie down first, I'll be right back." Calvin gradually came to his senses, comforting her as he pulled on his T-shirt and prepared to run out from the clubhouse.
The moment he stepped away, he remembered something and looked down towards the woman lying on the car seat, his mood incomparably disturbed.
At this moment, Belle was lying in the car seat like a wounded kitten, not uttering a word. Her clothes were in disarray, her bloodless face was frowning in pain.
His heart inexplicably fluttered and his mind was in turmoil.
Damn, stop pretending to be pathetic, isn't it just to win the love and pity of men?
A woman who obviously looks innocent and lovely, but in fact is more scheming than anyone else!
The light in Calvin's eyes shifted, and after hesitating, he ran towards the clubhouse.
Clear tears flowed from Belle's eyes as Calvin walked away.
Yes, the person Calvin loved in his heart would always be Lexie, before, now and even more so in the future, she was just a woman he had abandoned. Just a moment ago she seemed to be dreaming that he would still care for her more or less in his heart based on the way he had behaved tonight.
She was wrong.
