Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 45

"Belle, if you don't come back, Lexie will take your position.” Emily said with worry, “That woman is scheming. She managed to brainwash Paige now, even Calvin listens to her. I heard that Paige is preparing for their marriage. She wants Calvin to divorce you so that he can marry Lexie. Their only fear is that his grandmother will object. If she does not agree, they can’t marry, but that woman is determined to marry into the Harvey family. She even told Paige that she loves Calvin a lot and she doesn't mind that he has a wife. She is willing to be his second wife even if Calvin doesn’t get divorce. Paige was touched by her words, so she agrees Lexie to marry to Calvin. Even if his Grandma doesn’t agree, Paige will have Lexie live in the house. So, Belle, come home, while Grandma is still alive, she will definitely support you. Many young women dream to be the wife of Calvin. Lexie is Deputy Mayor' daughter but she's willing to be Calvin’s second wife. You should take advantage of the fact that Grandma still has power and a say in the family.”

Emily was nagging, and Belle could only nod her head, though she felt bitter in heart. Then, she walked out of the ward.

Emily grew up in the Calvin' Mansion. She saw with her own eyes how the men in the rich and powerful Harvey family took second wives. Calvin's grandfather had a second wife and Claude's family was the descendant of the second wife.

However, Hudson and his wife had a good relationship. Paige kept a close eye on Hudson so they did not encounter such a problem. Moreover, Hudson was naturally a loyal husband, and he did not want to upset Paige, so he did not have a second wife or something.

However, Claude married a second wife. She blatantly moved into the family. In fact, it was normal for men from wealthy families to openly marry a second wife in A City.

Although the monogamy system was preferred, for the wealthy families, it was normal to have several wives. Furthermore, some women were willingly married men for their fortune.

It was too much of a temptation to marry into a wealthy family. As long as the second wife gave birth to a son, they would have no financial worries for the rest of their lives. They would live a good life as wealthy husbands were commonly generous to the second wives.

For example, in today's entertainment industry, many female celebrities marry into wealthy families as second wives. They still acted happily and proudly. What's more, the wives all got along well with each other.

Lexie was the daughter of Deputy Mayor. It would be ridiculous that she was willing to marry into the Harvey family as a second wife.

Not to mention, she was an arrogant woman, always looking down on most people. As Deputy Mayor's daughter, she would felt embarrassed to be as a second wife.

The fact that Lexie told Paige how she was willing to be a second wife was just to gain her favor.

Belle lay in the ward for a whole day silently. She did not even take a step out of the ward.

Calvin never came back.

She went to bed early but had various dreams, it was dawn when she woke up.

After packing her things, she discharged from the hospital.

She came to nowhere but Grand Hyatt Apartments.

Since Calvin suspected that she would betray his company, she chose to stay in the apartment, so that he could feel relieved.

In these days, a perfect car model came to her mind, so she had to paint it out.

She turned on her computer and began to work.

In the afternoon, she went out to get some ingredient and began to cook.

She was going to cook some food tonight.

The big kitchen was clean, for Calvin never cook, and he could get whatever he wanted.

Belle turned off her phone and focused on cooking.

In the evening, Calvin came back.

As he had just reached the door, he smelt the food, and became stunned.

He took a few steps forward, and saw the woman who was cooking. In a apron, she was cutting the vegetables, and glanced at the cooking soup from time to time.

He lost in thought. He worked overtime last night for the express conference, and he had to call some famous consortium to show his respect, so he had no time to go the hospital. Being too tired, he felt asleep in the sofa.

After the work in the afternoon, it occurred to him that Belle was still in the hospital, so rushed over, but the nurse told him that Belle had discharged from the hospital.

He pulled out his phone and dialed her number, but she had turned off her phone.

In hurry, he made a call to Lottie, worried that Belle would have accident like last night, for he did not come to her last night.

Helpless, he came back to the apartment, though he thought that she would not come back. From experience, he thought she would go to a place where she could not be found, or go to Rhys for some comfort.
