Go After My Ex-wife

Chapter 87 Grandma's Summons

The ceiling lights are wide open in the living room at this time, and the lights are brilliant.

The front row of seating in the living room was empty, and above it was a large mahogany soft seating © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

sofa that was Sophia's seat.

The rows behind it were filled with the Harvey family's current masters, their children and

grandchildren, and really no one from outside was invited, including people from Paige's family and

Evan’s wife and her concubine's family, even if General of the military community wanted to send Rosa,

he was rebuffed by Sophia.

Evan sat in the middle of the back row and his second wife sat on the second side of him, while Paige,

could only sat behind Evan for Hudson was bedridden and became a vegetable.

It is because of this that Paige relocates this hatred towards Belle, the woman who put her husband in

the hospital, so ever since Hudson was hospitalized, her face has never really been happy and smiling

whenever she attends these types of family gatherings.

Sophia's two daughters, one still temporarily living in the Harvey Mansion because her husband's

family had fallen on hard times, and one who had also brought her husband back with her, sat in the

back row.

In the back row were the Sophia’s grandchildren, Martin sat on the left side, Aleena sat next to Martin,

and the two empty seats in the middle were for Calvin, but today only one was empty because Lexie

was sitting on the side waiting for Calvin to come over.

Tristan and Jennifer were on the sofa as special guests, of course this was all due to Paige's careful

arrangements, she was keen to have the Sophia acknowledge Lexie as a prospective grandson-in-law

in front of everyone at this birthday banquet.

All the workers of the Harvey family were present, but just all stood without a grunt in the side room

connected to the living room.

When Calvin appeared in front of the crowd holding Belle's hand, almost all the eyes in the living room

fell on them, their faces were all kinds of expressions. At first they were looking at their faces, gradually

all eyes fell on Calvin holding Belle's hand tightly. He was holding her hand tightly, his heart was not

indifferent to the crowd's gaze.

Belle was embarrassed by their gaze, which could be of all kinds: contempt, indifference, disdain,

resentment, calmness, deep inexplicability, but not that loving warmth, like three years ago, when she

was still despised and unaccepted by the crowd.

Only this time it was different because Calvin held her hand from the beginning to the end, even when

he saw Lexie, he did not let go of her hand.

He didn't take Belle to the seat that belonged to him, as Lexie was sitting there, where there was only

one empty seat belonging to him, so he went to sit on the divided chair next to the sofa.

Lexie had been sitting next to Calvin's seat, and when she saw him walk in, her spirits lifted and she

was full of joy, and soon her face sank!

She watched Calvin as he walked in, but his hand was holding Belle tightly, with a gentle and caring

face, and her eyes immediately filled with resentment.

Marin sat there with a straight face, his eyes fixed on Calvin’s hands, but he was clenching his teeth

and didn't say a word, and he couldn't even see any expression on his face.

"Cowards." Lexie was angry, but she felt relieved, what was she afraid of? There were many people

who did not want Calvin and Belle together. And in her heart, she despised Martin, a man who didn't

dare to chase a woman openly and didn't think about how to win her heart, but was always playing

tricks behind her back.

Belle was surrounded by as many stares and was so uncomfortable that she thought she would have

run away if she hadn't promised Sophia.

As if he could see what was on her mind, Calvin held her hand tightly, as if he was afraid she would run

away.

He should be afraid of not being able to explain to Grandma, thought Belle, otherwise why would he not

walk over to Lexie when he saw her there?

She had no interest in getting involved in other people's family affairs in this cold Harvey Mansion.

After today maybe she'll never have to come back here again, so she paid no attention to them again.

As she was thinking about it, she saw Ruth walking out.

The crowd instantly turned their attention to Ruth.

Ruth wore a red cheongsam today, very festive, and after she came out and greeted all the hosts in

charge first, she announced her grandmother's decree, "Will Belle come in? Grandma wants to see

you."

She only uttered this sentence and everyone revealed astonishment. What was the intention of Sophia

seeing only Belle alone, before paying respect to her ancestors?

They had all been sitting here for so long, but Grandma hadn't asked them to come in to talk. Even

when Paige passed in the news that Mayor Johnson's family had been invited over to pay their

respects to Grandma, she hadn't received any response.

Lexie's face turned pale, originally, she had Paige's permission and took the initiative to sit next to

Calvin. Everyone could see what that meant, but Calvin did not respond to her when he came in,

instead, he pampered Belle in every way, and now, his grandmother directly ignored her, and ignored

all the children and grandchildren, and just invited Belle in.

What means does this woman has to make Sophia so favorable to her? She has divorced Calvin, now

not even considered a member of the Harvey family, but Sophia treated her so preferentially. Her father

until now has not been received by Sophia, and his face is full of sullen.

Even Calvin didn't understand, he just twisted his head towards Belle inexplicably.

Belle was confused too. She knew that Sophia liked her, but she was still a foreigner, not to mention

that she was no longer the daughter-in-law of the Harvey family.

After Belle left, Lexie went towards Calvin and sat beside him, full of grievances and with tears in her

eyes.

Calvin was still in shock and didn't even notice her.

The second wife of Evan's family looked at Paige and Lexie, secretly laughing. Paige was in such a

hurry to invite Lexie's family here, everyone knew what she had in mind, but it seemed that her

thoughts were in vain, Sophia did not take it to her heart at all.

Lexie was so looking forward to be Calvin’s wife, but Calvin had not even expressed his position, she

was really thick-skinned, but they only laughed in their hearts.

They did not expect that it had been an hour since Belle walked in. At first, they all waited patiently, but

later on, they were not too impatient and began to grumble.

Finally, as everyone waited, Belle walked out.

Her face was white, and her mind was in a trance. She just stood with her eyes downcast, and out of

the corner of her eye she saw Lexie sitting next to Calvin. She didn't go over, but picked a quiet corner

and stood alone, wanting to invisible herself in that corner, not wanting anyone to notice her.

Calvin looked deeply at her. She did not come towards him, her expression was indifferent. He did not

know what grandma said to her, but after talking for so long, it must not be something simple. As he

was to walk over to ask her, Lexie held his arm, so he could only sit down.

Not long after, Ruth came out again and said loudly, "Grandma has invited Mayor Johnson over."

There was another outcry!

All eyes turned to Tristan.

Lexie's heart instantly perked up, grandmother had actually invited her father in, was Grandma to

accept her? Seeing Belle’s pale face, she guessed that it must be that Grandma wanted to cancel

Belle’s name on the ancestral tablet and give it to her.

Now Grandma was calling her father over, wasn't that obvious? For a moment, her hands were shaking

with excitement.

Tristan stood up and walked towards Sophia's bedroom. When he passed by Calvin, Calvin was

inexplicably distressed. He looked toward Belle, who was stood there silently, lonely. Did Grandma say

something bad to her?. Was Grandma really going to remove her name from the ancestral tablet?

Would Grandma really accept Lexie?

What was going on here? Didn't he used to have his heart set on her leaving him and Harvey's

ancestral tablets? Then where did this feeling of uncertainty come from now? What was wrong with

him?

He looked at her again, but she just stood there in silence, not even looking at him, as if she had

forgotten him. For a moment his heart grew angry, as if anything to do with her disturbed him.
