Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 64

"Oh! Fish." She cried out in surprise.

"You can have this one." Her surprised expression fell in his eyes, and a smug smile floated across Calvin's face as he placed the fish on top of a stone bench.

Belle cheerfully stood up on one foot and squatted down to take a look. There were several big sea fish, if it is fired, or used to make soup, it must be tasty. At this thought, she felt hungrier.

"You got this from the sea?” The question was asked with great enthusiasm, as Belle's face was all suppressed with admiration.

"What a big deal? My grandpa once threw me in the special brigade for a year, piece of cake." Calvin downplayed it.

Belle was aware of his skills. She had seen his wilderness survival skills with her own eyes and adored him from the bottom of her heart when she fell in love with him, but he didn't know it.

"Calvin, can you go to the mountains and get some dry firewood? I want to make some fish soup." Belle's eyes glowed with an eerie light in the darkness.

When Calvin heard her request, he also felt hungry, so he went outside.

Belle pulled out a knife from her bag and killed the fish skillfully. When Calvin came in with dry firewood in his arms, she had already prepared a stainless steel cup of water.

"Please take this to the beach to clean it and get some water back." Belle instructed with a smile.

Calvin placed the dry firewood in the cave, took the cup of water and went out without saying anything, and when he came back again, the cave was lit up and much warmer, the dry wood was splintering in the fire, with a shelf built on it and the fire running high.

She took the cup of fish handed to her by Calvin, taking some out because there was too much fish, and put the cup in the shelf. The fire ruffled up, and she added wood from time to time.

"You still know how to do this? I can't believe it." The warmth of the fire burned in the cave, and Calvin felt the warmth as he raised his eyes to see Belle carefully burning the fire, hollowing out the firewood from time to time to let the air in.

The fire baked her face red, exceptionally charming.

"There are many things you can't see." Belle didn't even raise her head, "During my years in America, I worked and studied hard, every winter and summer I would go to restaurants to wash dishes, clothes, I did all kinds of work."

Belle said casually, not feeling ashamed or unnatural, but Calvin listened with a slight bewilderment.

"Wouldn't you call me if you didn't have any money? Or call your mum and dad, at least you are their only daughter, so you're not that poor." Calvin murmured.

Belle suddenly froze, ‘call you, will you answer my phone?’ She went to America for further study, but her wealthy husband had no money to give her, if she told her mother and father, how could she hide her unfortunate marriage?

Belle was plunged into a kind of sad memory, if Calvin didn't bring it up, she felt okay, but once he mentioned this sad topic, she felt distressed.

Her eyes reddened slightly, and she lowered her head to fiddle with the fire, not speaking again.

Her silent sadness fell into Calvin's eyes, and Calvin's gaze was deep as he stared at her.

Her petite figure looked lonely and sad, and she was shrouded in despondency. He felt heartache, and had an urge to hold her in his arms, but he held back and took a sigh.

The years had been hard for everyone, and she seemed to have suffered even more than him.

The words of his grandmother came back to him, and he glanced at her. ‘Grandma, if you knew that she had never been happy, would you regret the decision you made?’

‘Grandma, if I were to do what you want now, or if we were to remarry, would she be happy?’

No, it would only hurt her more. After all, there are many insurmountable barriers between them, it would not work out!

He had been thinking whether they could still get back together, especially when he saw how sad and disappointed his grandmother was.

But after thinking about it for a long time, his answer was no!

A marriage that wasn't happy and was painful and torturous for both parties would only be more unfortunate if they were forced to stay together, even if it was against his grandmother's wishes, he couldn't be so selfish!

The fish in the cup emitted the overwhelming fragrance.

Calvin inhaled the aroma and smiled to himself when he heard the rattling in his belly.

Belle took a piece of cotton pad on the handle of the cup and removed the fish, placing it in front of her and carefully picking the fishbone out by the light of the fire.

Calvin was in no hurry, he was a man and of course he had to let the woman take precedence.
