Chapter 252 Threat
"Mr. Harvey, Madam is looking for you." Seeing that the door was locked, Yanis had to ring the doorbell.
Belle was already asleep. Even when she fell asleep, she still frowned. Her face was full of horror.
Calvin held Belle's hand and sat in front of the bed, looking at her sleeping face, feeling extremely
heavy. It wasn't until Yanis' shout woke him up that he stood up. He clenched the key in his hand and
walked outside.
This new door was installed by him. He had a key, but he didn't tell her, for fear that she would be
angry. But he didn't expect to use it so quickly.
"Mom, what's the matter?" Calvin walked to the living room. Paige was sitting on the couch with a
gloomy face, feeling so depressed.
"Calvin, what are your plans?" Paige asked seriously, looking at Calvin's indifferent face.
"What?" Calvin frowned slightly, pretending not to understand.
"Calvin," Paige emphasized, "You're still playing dumb. You can delay it, but Tristan won't wait any
longer. He has given an ultimatum. You have to tell him the wedding date in three days. You have to
think carefully and don't delay it."
"Impossible! This is a threat. I will not compromise." Calvin categorically denied it, with anger in his
eyes.
"Calvin, but now such a thing has happened. They have the excuse. This time Tristan has made up his
mind. Besides, Lexie's belly is about to get bigger. There is really no way to hide it anymore." Hearing
Calvin was still refusing, Paige felt so helpless. She was still trying to get him agree.
"Mom, this is slander. Belle won’t push over her. I know Belle. She has never been such a domineering
woman, let alone doing such mean things. It's too unfair to her. If I compromise because of this matter,
it is tantamount to admit that she did such a thing, which is completely impossible. I will never let her
suffer any harm." Calvin said angrily and firmly.
"Calvin, are you really stupid or are you playing dumb? I also know that I can't blame Belle for this. I
have seen it all. At that time, Jennifer and I came in almost at the same time. I even came in one step
earlier than her. I can see everything more clearly than her from the angle I stood. But even if I know
it's slander, what can we do?" Paige said helplessly, feeling heartbroken.
"Mom, if that's the case, why didn't you tell the truth when you were in the ward this afternoon? What's
the use of telling me now? It's so unfair to Belle. How can you do things like this?" Calvin became NôvelDrama.Org content.
agitated. He stood up and said loudly.
Paige was suffocated by Calvin's anger. She sighed, and said seriously, "Calvin, only Jennifer and I
have seen the whole thing. Can I say it out? If I said it at that time, it would only make them even more
angry. They would think that I was covering up Belle. Then they would be furious. The consequences
would only be more serious. Now I have a way out. As long as you agree with their request, they will
stop. This is the best solution for everyone.”
Calvin was completely speechless. What kind of logic was this? They framed Belle!
"Mom, you are too confused. This matter doesn’t have anything to do with Belle in the first place. Why
should we compromise? If we compromise, they will think we know we’re wrong. In that way, we can’t
explain it even more." Calvin felt upset. He rubbed his temples. His head was aching. He really didn't
understand why Paige was so afraid of them.
"Calvin, are you really stupid? Everyone can tell that they just want to drive away Belle so that you can
marry Lexie. This is their ultimate goal. Not mention that Belle does have a bit of responsibility for it,
even if she didn't push over Lexie at all, or if such a thing never happened, they would find other
excuses, and then put the blame on Belle until we drive her away. You have to figure out the root of the
matter and their true intentions, so that we can find the solution. At this time, it is not a question of who
is right and who is wrong. These are all useless." Paige analyzed it. She was shocked and frightened
today. She was even more tired and felt that her chest was stuffy. Then she covered her chest, looking
so tired.
"Humph." Calvin snorted coldly, with a sneer on his face, "Could they really get succeed after we drive
away Belle? Tell them, it's impossible. I never thought about marrying Lexie. I don't love her at all. How
can I marry her? I only love Belle. No matter what, I will fight for our happiness and will not succumb to
anyone. If I do, that’ll be not me."
Calvin said this decisively, and let out a deep breath. The look in his eyes was indifferent. He turned
around and was about to leave.
"Stop." How could Paige let him leave so easily? She shouted angrily, "Calvin, you can be self-willed
and only care about your own feelings, but have you ever thought about Harvey Corp? Have you
thought about how you fight for it for so many years? Back then, your father and I worked so hard to
get the company developed. Do you know how much effort we put into it?"
Speaking of this, Paige was sobbing with tears in her eyes, "Child, you have grown up. At your age,
you can’t be self-willed. Who is Tristan? The wily fox! He carefully set the trap. How could you escape it
easily?"
Calvin stood up straight. His back was stiff. He stared at the darkness outside the door.
"Son, I've heard that Tristan is now investigating the files about that you bought the Camphor Villa a
few years ago. It is said that there is a step which went wrong. In fact, it has nothing to do with Harvey
Corp. It was because of negligence by the government officials that there was a small procedure which
was not completed. In fact, we all followed the procedures and rules, but their officials were negligent.
This has nothing to do with us. But Tristan is now holding on to this. He said that we didn’t follow the
procedures, and it has to be cancelled. The government will take back the land. Besides, those officials
will be punished. If it’s true, what will it mean?” Paige explained clearly and earnestly.
Calvin clenched his fists tightly. His face distorted.
Asshole!
He gritted his teeth.
"Also, Calvin, the most industries of Harvey Corp. are in A City. Except for the newly developed luxury
cars, some emerging businesses, and a small number of products that have already come to the world,
everything else is inseparable from the jurisdiction of A City. Have you ever thought about it? Tristan
has his connections. If he does something, Harvey Corp. will be damaged no matter how strong it is.
The industries of Harvey Corp. are the foundation of the Harvey family. I will not sit idly by at that time.
You must recognize the situation. We can’t fight against the government. You must know how to move
on and protect yourself. Your marriage is never up to you. Whether you love Lexie or not, it's no use
now. Unless you’re strong enough to control this, otherwise, you should give up. For the future of the
Harvey family, you have to wrong yourself. I will give Belle enough compensation. She won't be
wronged a little bit, okay?" Paige said very seriously.
Although Calvin didn't fully agree with his mom, it was true. How could he not understand? Suddenly,
he felt weak all over and his footsteps were too heavy.
Compensate Belle? How to compensate? No matter what they did, the Harvey family owed her. He felt
so sorry for her. Even saying such words would be like humiliating her!
"Calvin, Lexie just wants to be Mrs. Harvey. It’s also for Tristan's reputation. She told me that as long as
you can marry her, she wouldn’t object that you’re with Belle. You and Belle can live outside or in
Harvey Mansion. Why are you so stubborn? If it's someone else, I don't know how happy he is. By
doing this won’t offend anyone. Can’t you think of this?" Paige sighed, still trying her best to get Calvin
to agree.
"Mom." Calvin suddenly turned his back and asked slowly, "If you were Belle, would you be willing?"
"This..." Paige's face turned pale. She hesitated, but she quickly said with a serious face, "My child, this
is her life. When I got married with your dad, how much money and connections my parents gave to
your grandfather to get his promise! That's why your grandfather agreed that he wouldn’t let your dad
have a lover. But Belle doesn't have the strength."
Calvin sneered and said sharply, "Mom, to put it bluntly, you still dislike her family and are unwilling to
fully support her. When she got married with me, you looked down on her. If you can treat her fairly,
those stuff would never happen. Lexie would never live here on the wedding night. It is even less likely
that she still stays here and forces me to marry her. Think about it, don't you have responsibility? In a
word, it is the result of you dislike the poor and love the rich."
"Ah..." Hearing it, Paige took a step back and almost fell. She opened her mouth and her face was
pale. After a long time, she shouted angrily, "Brat, how dare you comment me like this? It’s me who let
you make Lexie pregnant? When your grandmother asked you to get marry with Belle, you didn't like
her, rejected her, and looked so miserable. Was that what I imposed on you? You don’t have to be
responsible for all this?"
