Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 128

"You, come here." He waved at her.

Feeling that he was not as reluctant as she thought, Belle was pleased and took a few steps closer.

His long arms reached towards her, Belle's waist was encircled by his arms. He brought it with force and Belle's sat on his lap. His force was so soft that Belle surprisingly did not resist and sat obediently on his legs.

If her obedience could make him quit smoking, it was okay!

"Why do you want me to stop smoking?" His palm stroked through her hair forcing her face to meet his, his magnetic voice warm and inviting.

"Smoking is bad for your health." Belle was nervous, not wanting her mind to be read too deeply, she just replied casually, meeting his eyes freely.

"You care for me?" He laughed out softly, looking at her rather thoughtfully, examining her.

"Yes." Belle admitted, their relationship had long gone beyond friendship, since so, what was wrong with caring for his body? Besides, there was only one man in her life, so it was normal for her to care about him.

"If you're willing to help me, I'll think about it." After thinking about it, he spoke half jokingly and half seriously, and when Belle saw that he had a wicked smile on his face but his demeanour was serious, she couldn't help but ask offhandedly, "Are you willing to accept my help?"

Calvin's eyes held a deep, unseen implication, and with a chuckle, he leaned his head against the back of the chair and asked, "How do you want to help me?"

At this demeanour of his, Belle had a hint of embarrassment, but she smiled confidently and said aloud, "As long as you have the determination to cooperate with me, I can definitely get you to quit."

She smiled wryly after saying that, her eyebrows arched, her eyes blinked, revealing her white teeth, which made Calvin’s heart warmed up instantly.

"Okay." He agreed with barely even a thought, the light in his eyes shining brightly.

"Okay then, you swear." Fearing that he would regret, Belle hurriedly extended her hand and placed it in front of Calvin, he smiled and reached out. Belle took his finger and pulled a hook, forcing him to swear. Calvin agreed to everything with her in his arms.

Belle didn't expect him to agree so readily, but according to her father's experience, it was still a bit difficult for men to really quit smoking, for it took very good perseverance.

"Calvin, do you know the reason why I came to America this time?" After saying this, Belle thought it was time to tell him about the business matter, so while he was in a good mood now, she asked, lest he would blame her then.

Calvin smiled and didn't seem to care much about the matter, his large warm and soft palm attached to her waist and he said softly, "You have your reasons for what you do, I don't need to know about it. Since I've given the job to you, I will trust you."

How nice that sounded, Belle couldn't believe her ears. But he was so upset this afternoon that he had to settle the score with her!

"Really? You believe me?" Her eyes shone brightly and she looked up at him, still in doubt.

Calvin gazed into her eyes and nodded with a smile.

"Then why have you been so upset?" She asked.

Calvin was stunned. Couldn't she see the reason why he was unhappy?

When he heard she had fallen ill and fainted, he had rushed here because he had been concerned about her health. It seems that their thoughts are indeed too far apart and the gulf between them is still very deep.

"You really don't know the reason for my anger?" His eyes darkened

Belle was frightened, about inviting Reece must give him a clear explanation, so she hurriedly explained,

"Calvin, I hired Reece for Harvey Corp, he has unique experience in car production, you must value him. Believe me, I'm doing this for the good of Harvey Corp."

She spoke with great sincerity and honesty.

Calvin's gaze was dark and he just looked at her.

Monica had already told him everything during the afternoon, and he was touched by the fact that she had worked with her sick body in order to hire Reece.

If it was really about her own business, it would be possible to word that hard, but it was about Harvey Corp and didn't seem to be directly about her, so why did she still take all her effort?

His heart fluttered and his eyes shone brightly. All along, Harvey Corp had not treated her well, including him, who had also treated her coldly, but she worked so hard and even disregarded her body. What kind of sentiment was this out of?
