Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 54

"Calvin, I'm really glad that you guys can work together and go forward hand in hand." The old lady continued happily, but then she said, "Calvin, I always hear some bad rumours about you two in the newspaper, but I want to tell you that, as a man of the limelight, there will be more gossip than ordinary people, but too much gossip is not good for the stability of the family, and even worse for the Harvey's reputation, I think you should know about it."

Sophia's gaze slowly turned to Calvin, "For so many years, you have blamed me, but do you understand my intention now?"

Calvin was confused, and even his expression was stiff.

When Belle went to America three years ago, Grandma knew about it, but she did not explicitly oppose it, nor did she force him to go to America to retrieve her, but only asked the family to send Ethan gifts for every New Year, which did not lead to Ethan to come to their doors.

He thought his grandmother had learned of her wrong decision and had stopped forcing them. But the meaning in these words today was anything but!

Grandma stayed in the house all day, seemingly unconcerned about what was going on outside, but she knew some things better than anyone.

He couldn't understand why Grandma hadn't stopped Belle from going to America, after all these years, if she really wanted them to be good, it certainly wasn't wise for the couple to be separated for so long, and she could have ordered him to bring Belle back, but Grandma didn't.

Now Grandma's words made him even more confused.

"It’s been three years, have you grown up?" The old lady held his hand, she knew that her grandson was shrewd and capable in his career, but he was naive and even confused when it came to his feelings, so she marry Belle to him.

Years ago, when she first saw Belle, she decided that she was the most suitable for her grandson. But everything went beyond her imagination, and it had been sour in her heart for these years.

After all, couples have to stay together for the rest of their lives. How can they know each other and stay together until they grow old without experiencing bumps and bruises?

They will have to go on their own way in the future, which no one can help them with.

But right now, everything is still in the clouds, his grandson is still not enlightened.

"Grandma, I don't know what you mean." Calvin's heart was growing panicky, had he grown up? Was Grandma mocking him for not being mature enough? Or was it a reference to something?

"Calvin, I have heard a lot of bad rumours about you, I hope you can tell me the truth." The old lady's eyes were shinning as she asked.

Calvin's heart became even more flustered.

"Grandma, I ......" he stammered, it seemed that his grandmother must have known about his divorce from Belle, otherwise she wouldn't have asked so much.

"So, I won't even see my granddaughter-in-law in the future." As expected, Sophia's face was filled with a disappointed expression as she muttered, "It seems that it's all true. Belle, have you already given up on my grandson and are choosing someone else? You promised me in front of your father in the beginning!"

Sophia was full of heartache, her cloudy eyes shining with tears.

Calvin was even more shocked to hear this. Originally he wanted to hide it from her, but the media is too advanced nowadays and there must be people with ill intentions who purposely want to reveal the news to her.

The face of Martin floated in front of his eyes. Martin had always been at odds with him, he would not Miss Dixon an opportunity before his eyes for sure.

At this thought, Calvin was furious. He was the one who had been circling around Belle like a fly, and if he hadn't taken away her virginity, he wouldn't have disliked Belle so much.

The hatred in his heart was stirred up again!

She thought he would understand her one day, at least he would after this press conference, but she had waited for the breaking news.

There was really no way out, not only did he ignore her, but he went even further away, was her arrangement all wrong? Having lived to this age, for the first time she felt the bleakness and hopelessness of reality.

"Calvin, I don't expect anything more, you can only go on your own away in the future. I am old now, and there is really nothing more I can do." The old lady trembled and steadied herself, then with a sigh of relief, she said in a heavy tone, "In the future, you will choose your own marriage and make your own decisions, I won't interfere anymore. But I like Belle, she is already in the family tree of the Harvey family, and no one can change that. She is my acknowledged granddaughter-in-law. You can marry another woman and have children, but the woman you marry cannot live in the Harvey’s house. You can start a family outside, but the children live in the Harvey Mansion must have my approval before they get married."

Calvin was dumbfounded to hear this, and he understood the multiple meanings in these words,.

If that was the case, even if the woman he remarried was legally his wife, she would be nothing on the ancestral tablets, and on the ancestral tablets of the Harvey family, apart from the divorced Belle, would he be wifeless for life?

That would mean that any children he had in the future, except for Belle's, would not have the right to inherit the Harvey Mansion. Although Calvin had created countless fortunes himself and would not care about this property, this was after all the ancestral property of the Harvey family, how could he pretend it did not exist!

In his hand was his grandmother's hand, slightly cool in temperature, but his heart was colder than his grandmother's hand, and he was already in turmoil.

"Grandma, I ......" his nose was blocked and he said, "Grandma, I am grown up and by rights I should not ask you to worry anymore, I will take care of my own affairs, if I have offended you, please forgive me."

He bowed his head, like a child who had done something wrong, but his heart was full of mixed feelings.

"Calvin, no matter what you decide, I will not interfere any more. Don't worry, I will give you all the inheritance that belongs to you except for the Harvey Mansion, it is Harvey’s ancestral property and my only request. I think you should be able to understand, and I believe I will not make it too difficult for you. Go, do what you want to do."

Calvin stood up blankly, emotionally drained.
