Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 720

"Yes indeed, Mr. Harvey. Madam Lilian has a lot of qualms now. I think what tops the list is Kate's health and the fear of aggravating her condition. Blake analyzed the situation pertinently."

"Calvin's gaze turned deep and dark, and there was a faint exhilaration in his heart. It turned out that Madam Lilian had helped him several times because of Belle's background. When he thought about it, Blake said clearly from the opposite side, ""Mr. Harvey, not only does Kate have this background but there is also another unexpected background. I am afraid that only Sophia knew about this matter. After all, Kate had been secretly raised by her since she was eleven years old."""

"When Calvin heard this, he raised his head. His eyes were wide open in shock."

"Blake, what do you mean? Are you trying to say that Kate has another identity? he asked, and his face was cloaked with confusion."

"Mr. Harvey, I'm afraid it's true. Blake nodded and continued to say with certainty, ""Kate Bennett is also Brooklyn Cole's very own granddaughter."""

"Brooklyn Cole's granddaughter? Calvin was astounded. He had already expected Kate to be Madam Lilian's daughter, but not the fact that Kate was also Brooklyn's granddaughter. This was too much for Calvin to take in. He didn't even dare to imagine it."

"Alas, I'm afraid that only your grandmother, Sophia, had any clue to all of this. Blake also sighed and relayed to him all the information he had investigated. Calvin was a little absent-minded after hearing this."

"Although there were already too many incidents in life, this particular one was really hard for Calvin to digest. It was too uncanny, even more legendary than a movie plot."

"Brooklyn knows that Kate is his granddaughter, but he's ignored her for so many years. Moreover, Kate was brought up by my grandmother. Besides, Ethan had been framed and Kate was severely injured in a car accident. At that time, she was alone, and there were hardly any relatives around to take care of her. She obviously had such a powerful family background. Isn't this way too cruel to her? Calvin was reeling in shock as he thought of the past, and resentment filled his heart."

Blake furrowed his brows and nodded.

"Therefore, there must be a lot of enmity between Madam Lilian and Brooklyn. I'm afraid that this unpleasantness will be difficult to clear up. Now, it will be tough for Kate to accept Madam Lilian as her mother. You asked me to investigate all of this, where everything is undoubtedly correct, but I can't predict what may play out in the near future."

"At that point, an inconspicuous smile emerged from Blake's lips. It was a family matter. Naturally, it was better for the parties involved to work it out by themselves. Outsiders should not get entangled in this. So, he continued quietly."

"However, I think that your position is very special. You could make use of it to temper these incidents, but this is just my two cents. You have the final say."

"After saying these words, Blake took his leave."

Calvin sat on the couch and lost his mind for a while. He then stood up and walked to his desk to make a call.

"Maud, is Madam Lilian gone?"

"On the other side, Maud immediately replied, ""Mr. Harvey, Mr. Hudson and Madam Paige had sent Madam Lilian off Tristany in the morning."""

"What about Belle? Without hearing Belle's name, Calvin's heart stirred. He could not help but to ask."

"Mr. Harvey, I haven't seen her today. Perhaps, she's too tired these days and is probably resting, Maud could only answer in this way."

"When Calvin heard that, he put down the phone and tapped his fingers lightly on the phone's receiver."

"Madam Lilian had such a close relationship with Belle. Well, they were immediate relatives after all. When Madam Lilian left, would Belle not be there? It was absurd. So, was Belle in the hospital or at home?"

"He looked at the files on his desk. That day, he came to the company Tristany and had finished a lot of things. He even brought Aron here in order to restore his identity as the vice president so that he could help to manage the company. He immediately called Aron over and entrusted him with some tasks. Then, he left the office."

He drove straight back to Harvey Manor.

"Subconsciously, Belle had been sitting on the stone on Central Island for more than two hours. She did not stand up until her legs were numb."

"After the welter of messy thoughts in her mind had settled down, she finally regained her peace."

She walked slowly towards the exit.

"Just as she reached the exit, Calvin, who had hurried there, came into view."

"His handsome face was flushed, and there were drops of sweat at the corner of his forehead. His breathing was very rapid, indicating that he had jogged here. Anxiety was lining all of his features."

"Belle, why are you here? Why didn't you bring your phone with you? It took me a while to find you. Calvin approached her. His tone was warm and soft, but there was a hint of reproach in it."

"Therefore, she didn't want to see Madam Lilian for the time being."

Belle was in a dilemma.

"It was not a matter of whether she would accept it or not. She had always had a good impression of Madam Lilian. Moreover, Madam Lilian had a very high reputation. It was an extremely glorious thing to have her as her grandmother. However, that was just how people were. They would feel uneasy and even uncomfortable when their lives were suddenly disrupted."

"Especially for Kate, the consequence of this fact revealed to her was a huge psychological pressure, which might completely upend her current life."

Kate was not a person who fawned over power and nobility. She would not immediately accept Madam Lilian just because of her noble status.

"Most of the time, she had her own persistence and principles. In her vocabulary, the word 'mother' was too strange and distant. Over the years, she had suffered and shed too many tears, and was left with only her broken body. If she wanted to accept Madam Lilian naturally, then it might prove to be a feat. "

"What was more, she was severely ill!"

"If one looked at it clearly after taking a step back, if one's feelings could be accepted so casually, then everyone in the world could abandon their spouses and children, ignore their families, and pursue their own ideals. Since they did not have to worry about their own family affection whatsoever, they only needed to amass money and power."

Reality couldn't be more of a far cry than this. 

"Calvin observed Belle properly and was contemplating it. From her behavior, was she already aware of her background?"

She was extremely smart and bright. She must have had a sense that something was off.

She would probably be very anguished if she found out about this.

"Should he inform her of the details he had investigated? If he wanted to, then how should he start?"

Calvin wrapped his arm around Belle's waist and pulled her into his embrace. He did not know what to say for a moment.
