Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 41

"Belle, when I saw the news from the TV that day, I had the wish to fight with Calvin.” She said sadly. She looked around the room and asked angrily, “That b*stard Calvin left you here alone?”

“No,” Belle explained, at the thought of Calvin's attentive care for her these days.

"Belle, don't tell me that you are still looking forward to remarry him? Are you doing this to win his heart? Lottie looked at her incredulously.

Belle felt bitter in her heart and gave a wry smile.

"Lottie, I loved him, but it is in the past. I joined Harvey Corp for my personal affairs. I have moved on, or I wouldn't have agreed on the divorce.” Belle explained, her eyes hollow.

Was that really the case? She couldn't figure it out herself.

"If that's the case, why did you save him? Are you stupid? Aren't you afraid of death? Lottie was skeptical and could not understand it."

"Lottie, stop asking. Even I can't explain it myself.” Belle shook her head with plead in her eyes."

"All right. You are an excellent and intelligent woman, any man will love you. It's his loss that Calvin doesn't love you. Only a vulgar woman like Lexie can catch his eyes, don’t feel bad about it.” Lottie sighed and gently placed the flowers into the vase on the bedside table before she peeled some fruits for Belle. They started chatting, and Lottie tried to cheer Belle up.

With Lottie's company, Belle felt better. Lottie did not leave until she received a call from Elegance Café.

After Lottie left, it became quiet. Belle felt weak all over her body and only wanted to sleep. But she had not taken a bath for several days, and her body felt sticky. Today, Calvin was not here, so she could finally take a bath.

She didn't use the bathtub, she could only hold the showerhead with her hand. Since she could not bend her right hand, it was difficult in showering.

She was still wondering who was living in that ward, and decided to go to take a look tomorrow.

While she was lost in thought, the door opened gently.

“Who's that?” Belle asked in a panic. She hurriedly took a bath towel to cover herself and looked at the door warily.

The bathroom was filled with steam fog.

Calvin showed in in his casual T-shirt and a pair of slippers. He was leaning against the door with an evil smile on his face.

"Who told you to come in? Get out.” Belle covered her chest with one hand, feeling embarrassed and annoyed. She turned her back, shouting at him.

Calvin touched the corner of her mouth and looked at her with an evil smile. His eyes were fixed on the ugly knife wound on her back.

He stared at her without blinking his eyes, showing no intention of going out.

Belle waited for a long time, but he was still in. She got angry and turned around with a sullen face. The moment she turned her head, she saw that his burning eyes fixed on her back. She knew that he was looking at her wound and noticed untainted pity in his eyes.

The cold air floated in from the outside.

She shivered.

"You haven't recovered from your injury yet, how can you take a bath alone? Let me help you.” Calvin ignore Belle’s rejection, but came in boldly, and took the showerhead from her. His hand gently stroked her wound, “Does it still hurt?”

Lost in thought, Belle stared blankly at his black eyes and then shook her head.

Calvin turned on the shower head and began to help her bathe.

Belle grabbed the showerhead in his hand and shook her head in horror.

"Silly girl, the wound hasn't recovered yet. It will be infected if it gets water on it. Let me do it. Don't worry, I won't eat you,” he was comforting her while teasing her, took the showerhead and wash her back.

Belle could only turn her back to him, with a flushing face

Calvin wrapped his arms around her after washing her back. He whispered into her ear, with his alluring voice, "Do you like me?”

“No.” Belle shook her head, flustered.

"No?” Calvin looked into her eyes, as if he wanted to see through her, “Then why did you save me?”

He asked again with a bright smile, which was full of temptation. Belle could fell his body temperature, at this, her heart was beating faster and she felt hard to catch her breath.

"Have you fallen in love with me now?” There was a glimmer of expectation in his eyes and he held her more tightly.

Belle's body froze and she stammered, “No... Go out. I'm done showering.”
