Chapter 163 Sweet Marshmallow
Chapter 163 Sweet Marshmallow
When Belle woke up in the morning, he realised that it was already dawn, and looked at the wall clock
to see that it was 9 o'clock.
Damn, it's sleepy at this hour!
She seemed to have been particularly sleepy lately, and her spirits are not good, and she has little
energy, which she thinks it due to exertion.
Belle hurriedly got up, got dressed, grabbed her bag and ran outside.
As soon as they reached the living room, they saw Lexie sitting on the sofa wearing a warm and thick
coat, with a smug smile on her face, gesturing and ordering Yanis and Kiara around with all kinds of
food and drinks.
Paige, on the other hand, sat with her, full of pampering.
Belle was in a hurry to go to work, so she just called out to Paige, "Auntie, I'm leaving." She ran off like
the wind to take the electric car.
"Mom, you have to help me, I'm pregnant with Calvin's child. If Calvin doesn't want me, I won't have
nerve to see anyone." Lexie remembered what Calvin had said to her last night and said with tears of
anguish in her heart.
"Don't worry, Calvin is a responsible man, he will give you an account. Be happy, otherwise it will not be
good for the child in your belly, that is my grandson." Paige saw Lexie's sobbing appearance, she
couldn't bear it, so she said with conviction, but her heart was in turmoil and last night's words from
Calvin had made her heart startled.
"But mum, last night Calvin wanted me to abort your grandson." Lexie remembered what Calvin had
said last night, and her heart ached as she cried out again.
"Hey, don't cry, don't cry, I will help you." Paige saw that the whole morning Lexie was in tears, she was
heartbroken, only to speak out to comfort Lexie.
Not long after, Jennifer rushed over, and upon seeing Lexie's appearance, she immediately pulled her
and said with heartache, sadness and joy, "Lexie, how is it? You don't even tell me that you are
pregnant. And it was Paige told me about it.”
"Mom, I'm afraid you'll worry." Lexie pouted.
"I'm worried too, silly girl." Jennifer nudged her forehead with her fingertips and said with pity and love.
After saying that, she sized her up and down and asked repeatedly, "My dear daughter, do you have a
good appetite now? Do you have any reactions? Have you been checked? How long have you been
pregnant? I rushed here as soon as I heard the news.” Jennifer chattered and looked at her, "My dear
daughter, it's been hard for you, look at your pale face, and you are so thin, my heart hurts so much.”
Then she said to Paige, “Paige, I didn’t expect that Lexie would get pregnant with Calvin’s child so
soon. It is great, now the filming should be stopped. Your Harvey family is very wealthy, so you won’t let
her go out and work, right?"
Jennifer spoke towards Paige, and that was a big enough momentum and aura.
Paige repeatedly said "yes" with a smile on her face, but her heart was even heavier. If not handled
properly, it would probably be a heavy blow to Harvey Corp and even to Calvin.
Not long after she arrived at the Harvey Mansion, Jennifer started to get busy, constantly ordering the
servants to buy things, even instructing Paige.
Paige felt the pressure.
Belle sat in the office dealing with various things, unknowingly, a morning passed. She saw Calvin
accompanying Jordan out, casually ate something and then surprisingly fell asleep on the sofa.
After she woke up, she started to have managers and supervisors from various departments come over
with documents to sign, no matter how big or small the thing was, she personally went through them
all. During this period of time, she had been familiar with the business of the Harvey Corp.
She lazily lay on the table, tapping her fingers on it, teasing the fish swimming around in the tank and
playing with them. Gradually, het eyes got a bit tired and surprisingly, and she soon fell asleep again.
"Belle, wake up." It was only when Calvin's voice came to her ears and she felt a large hand stroking
her head that she opened her eyes and looked at him blankly.
"Calvin, are you done with the socializing?" She asked in a daze.
Calvin's face was flushed, his forehead oozing with fine sweat and apparently he was breathless.
"Belle, you didn't answer my call, I thought you had left, but luckily, you didn't." He mumbled.
Belle looked outside, and it was surprisingly early in the day when the lights were on.
Smiling somewhat embarrassedly, she said, "Sorry, Calvin, I was asleep and didn't hear you."
Luckily, he had fallen asleep. Calvin secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Just the thought of her returning to Harvey Mansion gave him a pang of panic.
No, she mustn't know about Lexie's pregnancy.
What would be the consequences if she found out? He hardly dared to envisage it.
After the call to Harvey Mansion, he put his mind at ease knowing that she had not gone home.
But the other bad news was the arrival of Jennifer.
It seems that unless the matter of Lexie is taken care of, Belle will not be able to go back to Harvey
Mansion for the time being.
At that moment, he flew to the office and was relieved to see that the woman was only asleep.
"Belle, come on, let's go outside to eat first." Belle's face was pale. Calvin was distressed, stroking her
head and pulling her up.
"Calvin, I don't want to eat, I don't have an appetite, it's better to go home." Belle beamed her mouth
and spoke lazily.
"No, look at your face, you're so thin that even the wind can blow you up, and you still don't know how
to love yourself, I'm heartbroken." Calvin picked her up and walked towards the lift.
"Calvin, let go of me." Belle blushed, ashamed and anxious.
"What are you afraid of, honey? All the people are off work now, no one can see it, besides, so what if
they can see it? Can't I carry my wife?" Calvin did not care at all and hugged her even tighter, afraid
that she would fly away, Belle felt her sincerity and a happy sweet smile appeared on her face.
"What do you want to eat?" Calvin put her into the car, personally fastened her seat belt and asked
thoughtfully.
Belle thought about it and shook her head, not really knowing what to eat or wanting to eat something.
Calvin did not pursue the matter, and took her around from restaurant to restaurant to see what she
liked to eat.
As a result, he drove around the city without finding anything she liked to eat.
"Calvin, just that little shop." Seeing that he was having a hard time turning around, Belle pointed to a
snack shop with her finger. Seeing that she was finally willing to eat, Calvin happily parked his car and
led her down.
"Marshmallow, marshmallow for sale." The vendor by the roadside was shouting at the top of his lungs,
while stirring the machine in his hand with a stick, and soon a big ball of snow-white marshmallow was
in his hands, and from time to time people came to buy them.
Belle tilted her head and watched, a look of yearning and longing in her eyes.
Calvin followed her gaze and saw her look, remembering the day in the ward when Rhys fed her
marshmallow, she was smiling so happily and sweetly, that was an expression he had never seen
before.
He had to admit he was jealous at the time!
Now her obsessive look was causing him to feel vaguely unhappy, was she thinking of Rhys?
But he just froze for a moment and quickly said with a smile, "Belle, do you want some marshmallow?
I'll go and buy for you." Since they had already made their minds clear about each other, he believed
that he had the ability to make her change her mind, and what Rhys could do, he could do the same.
Belle nodded obediently.
Calvin smiled gently and walked over, quickly bringing several over, but Belle only picked one and gave
the rest to others.
"Here, I'll feed you." Calvin said softly as he held the marshmallow to her mouth. © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
"Okay." Belle looked dumbfounded at his kind face and opened his mouth, the sweet taste slipped into
his mouth and Belle smiled.
Calvin looked at her in awe.
What kind of mentality does this woman have? She loves such a cheap marshmallow as if it were a
treasure, and she has never seen her enjoy it so much even when she was given gold and jewellery.
"Do you love to eat this? Shall I buy it for you every day from now on?" Calvin asked in a soft voice.
Belle blinked her bright eyes for a long time before the light in her eyes gradually shrouded in a layer of
sorrow.
"What's wrong?" He asked, alarmed.
"My dad used to buy them for me when I was little, and I was so happy then, and then I was never that
happy again when I grew up, and now my dad has left me forever." She whispered, her nose was sore
and she lowered her head with tears in her eyes.
Calvin froze, it turned out that she liked marshmallows because of her father and missed him, not
because of Rhys, for a moment he was surprised and happy, but more than that, he was sad.
After all, Ethan had died so tragically and he had never called him 'Dad'. His daughter must be sad!
More guilt rushed to his heart.
Belle, in this life, I will never fail you again!
He reached over and took her into his arms and held her for a long time, but could not say a word.
At this point he really had nothing to say, let alone know what to say!
He could only hold her to let her listen to her heartbeat and feel her heart, and he thought she would
understand his heart.
