Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 540

"Madam, Mr. Harvey has encountered some trouble. At first, Mr. Harvey and the police were moments away from getting rid of the terrorists, but it is obvious that they had made up their minds to get Evan. Therefore, they sent another group of reinforcements to come here. This time, we're at Tamaland's borders. The terrain here is very complex, and they also have a lot of new weapons in hand. Blake's voice came hard and heavy on the other side, and it sounded as horrible as the sound of a hurricane."

"Belle put one hand on her left chest where her heart was, and the other that held onto the cell phone was trembling slightly. Her face was pale, and it seemed that she didn't even have the energy to hold the phone tightly."

"Madam, right now, we can only use the army to drive them away, but it is almost impossible to get the local army to take action. Blake continued on the phone. The situation was critical, and he did not care if she could accept it or not. At that time, he was extremely anxious. After all, Calvin was the head of Harvey Manor, and Sophia's favourite grandchild. So, how could he not be anxious?"

"The sound of gunshots came from the phone from time to time, and it hurt Belle's eardrums."

"She bit her lips. Feeling very unsteady, she held onto the wall with one hand."

"Madam, right now, you can only ask a person for help. She might be able to help Mr. Harvey. It was evident that Blake was desperate at the other end of the line. He could not calm down at all."

"When another gunshot boomed close to the phone again, Belle shouted out loud."

Who? Tell me who can help Calvin? Tell me now.

"Her voice was cold and harsh with a hint of a sob, but it still sounded calm and clear."

"Madam, don't be too anxious. They're still on their way here. Our people are still in control of the situation right now, but it's hard to say when their reinforcements will arrive. Therefore, don't worry too much. Madam, you can ask Madam Lilian for help right now. She definitely has the ability to mobilize the Tamaland military to intervene with this matter. She might agree to it if you're the one asking. Blake's voice on the phone was intermittent. He was interrupted by some chaotic voices from time to time, but it did not hinder Belle from hearing the name 'Madam Lilian'. She was stunned for a moment."

"Madam Lilian? Would that kind, old woman help Calvin, her husband, out?"

She really didn't have the confidence that she would accomplish that.

"Nevertheless, immediately after, she roared at Blake, ""Quick, send your exact location to my phone."""

"After saying that, she hung up the phone resolutely."

She then raised her head and saw that Hudson was looking at her.

The two exchanged glances.

"Belle clenched her teeth. Without saying anything, she turned around, opened the door of the study and ran outside."

"Hudson shouted from behind, but she didn't have enough time to answer him."

"After grabbing the car keys, she rushed downstairs. Her footsteps were somewhat weak, and she almost fell several times."

She knew where Madam Lilian's secret residence was located.

"She didn't care about her image and dignity anymore. As long as Calvin, her husband, the father of her children, could come back safely, even if she only had a glimmer of hope, even if Madam Lilian might refuse her, she would still ask her for help."

"In an inconspicuous suite of a five-star hotel, Madam Lilian was wearing a nightgown, while her secretary was reading the newspaper with her."

"The older Madam Lilian got, the less she slept."

"In the past, she should've fallen asleep at that time, but that day, she couldn't fall asleep at all. She didn't know what was going on, but she felt slightly uneasy."

The phone rang.

The secretary answered it.

It was a call from the reception.

"What's the matter? the secretary asked in an angry tone. She had already informed the receptionist that Madam Lilian shouldn't receive any calls at that hour. After all, she was old."

"The assistant manager of the hotel said while trembling with fear, ""I'm sorry. Madam Belle Morris, the wife of the president of the Harvey Group, Mr. Calvin Harvey, has requested to meet Madam Lilian. She said that she won't leave unless she meets her, and she has already been here for quite some time."""

Mrs. Harvey? The secretary was stunned and did not speak for a long time.

"Can we let her in? Hearing that the secretary's voice gradually went from angry to falling silent, the assistant manager seemed to have seen a glimmer of hope. After all, he couldn't afford to provoke Mrs. Harvey at all. If things went smooth, then everyone would be fine. Otherwise, with Belle's perseverance, it might also cost him his life."

"Quina, what's the matter? Seeing that Quina looked hesitant and was on the phone for a long time, Madam Lilian couldn't help but to ask."

"Quina's gaze was heavy, and her face sank."

"Quina seemed to know the reason Belle wanted to meet Madam Lilian at that moment, but it was not that easy for Madam Lilian to intervene in such a matter. After all, it was something to do with international relations. If Madam Lilian owed another country a favor, then she wouldn't be able to deal with things easily in the upcoming meeting."

"Belle's uneasy heart finally settled down after meeting Madam Lilian. After drinking a glass of water, she calmed down a little."

"Thank you, Grandma. I'm sorry to disturb your rest at such a late hour. She was a little shy, but her expression still looked very anxious."

Madam Lilian sat down calmly on the couch and looked at her with a smile.

"Don't worry, child. She smiled, put her hand on the back of Belle's hand on the couch, and patted it gently."

"Grandma, I would like to ask you to save my husband. She lowered her head and blinked. Belle seldom asked people for help. So, she was quite nervous, not to mention that she was requesting aid from Madam Lilian right then. Nonetheless, she still brought it up bravely."

"Oh. Madam Lilian adjusted her glasses with her hand and looked at her with a smile. ""Belle, are you referring to Mr. Calvin?"""

"Yes, Grandma, my husband, Mr. Calvin, has encountered some trouble right now. He is now fighting against the terrorists from the war-torn country at Tamaland's border. He could take control of the situation at first, but now, the had terrorists sent many reinforcements over, and they have advanced weapons to boot. Calvin and the others are in danger now. I want Grandma to ask the government of Tamaland to mobilize their army and help them deal with the terrorists."

"Belle repeated Blake's words again clearly. At that time, she had completely calmed down. After finishing her words, she looked at Madam Lilian expectantly without blinking."

Madam Lilian's face was as calm as ever. The smile on her face was very kind and amiable.

"Child, you love your husband a lot, don't you? She still looked at Belle with a smile."

"I... Belle's face was red. ""Yes, Grandma. I chose to marry him because I love him. Since he's in trouble right now, I can't sit by and do nothing about it."""

"Madam Lilian looked at her, took her hand, and asked kindly, ""My child, can I ask you a question?"""

"Yes. Belle raised her head and looked at the kind old woman in front of her with bright eyes. She did not know what she was going to ask, but she immediately nodded and agreed."

"Madam Lilian held Belle's hand tightly with one hand, touched the back of her hand with the other, and realized that Belle's was icy. She then asked Belle in a dignified manner, ""Belle, in the past few days when I was in A City, I saw the news and learnt that your husband, Mr. Calvin, was going to marry a second wife. Can you tell me, is this true?"""

"The light in Belle's eyes dimmed at once, and the smile on her face stiffened."

"It's true, Grandma. After a while, she answered softly. Her voice was extremely soft, as if she was talking to mosquitoes."
