Chapter 373 Be Grateful
"That''s it. Since you''re willing to wee her back, show some sincerity. With enough sincerity, I
believe the day Calvin''s family reunites will be around the corner. Sophia raised her voice and said,
""No matter how unrelenting Kate is, she is but a mother. Which mother is willing to see her own
daughter raising a child alone? The reason for her being this unrelenting is that she is afraid and
insecure. She''s worried that her daughter will fall into misfortune again. Her persistence in her stand
serves to strive for Belle''s position in the Harvey family. If we can make her trust us and be satisfied
with us, and see that her daughter will be happy, I think she won''t be as unrelenting anymore. At the
end of the day, Calvin is the child''s father. We have to consider this more or less. Not to mention that
Calvin is so excellent."""
"Everything became crystal clear to Hudson. It was time for him to meet Kate in person. No matter
what, he had to bring back Belle and Jerry as soon as possible. He had to ensure that Calvin has a
normal family, and then let him handle the business. In fact, Calvin was indispensable to Harvey Group.
If Belle coulde back to help, it''d be the cherry on top."
"Hudson, what you want to do is up to you, but I have to remind you. Do not force them toe back,
or else you''ll lose more than you can gain. Sophia reminded him. ""Kate''s family is also a decent
one. They used to be wealthy too. Don''t take advantage of the fact that our family has a stronger

economic foundation to bring them back without propriety, or even against her will. Avoid this at all
costs."""
"Yes, Mom, I understand. Hudson quickly nodded and agreed. ""Our family is a well-known family, and
there is no way we would resort to such unreasonable means. If this is possible, Calvin would not need
to spend two months there."" "
"Sophia nodded, deep in thought."
Hudson bade farewell to Sophia and walked out feeling light-hearted.
Sophia stared after her son as he walked out. She seemed to be hiding something behind her eyes.
"Hudson, in the future, you will know the reason why I asked you to do this. I hope you can invite Kate
and her family into Harvey Manor personally. Being upright and open-minded is the right thing to do. All
said and done, you will understand my painstaking efforts in the future."
"Hudson had just returned to Fragrance Garden when he saw Paige being as happy as a dog with two
tails. It appeared that she had heard the news and knew she had be a grandmother. When she
saw Hudson, she went up to him hurriedly."
"Hudson, I heard that I became a grandmother? She was beaming, full of the joys of spring. Once she
saw Hudson, she asked eagerly. "
"Calmly, Hudson looked at her, and asked indifferently, ""You only care about your grandson. What
about the mother of the child?"" "
"In truth, the news was also deliberately set off for her ears, just to see her reaction. As expected, her
reaction was very positive."
"Hudson, what are you talking about? As if I am an evil mother-inw. She gave birth to a grandson for
me. No matter what, I will care about her. After all, this achievement is iparable. Still, I don''t know
if she will appreciate my kindness. I am, after all, an elderly woman. If she gives me an attitude and
doesn''t ept my concern, I can''t do anything about it. Paige was very dissatisfied with what Hudson
had said. She immediately defended herself."
"Hudsonughed and intentionally let out a sigh. ""I think this matter is still up in the air, though. It''s not
that easy to get our grandson back. Kate is very protective of her daughter and is afraid that she will
suffer in the Harvey family again. Now, she is unwilling to allow Calvin to bring Belle and her son back.
If she doesn''te back, Calvin will not either. Harvey Group is now facing a global crisis. Such a
disorganized, chaotic state is not allowed. We have to take immediate action."""
"Paige became anxious upon listening to that. ""Her son is the blood of Harvey family, and Calvin loves
her so much. For so many years, he hasn''t even nced at a woman because of her. He is that
sincere. What more can she ask for? How can she be so ungrateful?"""
"Is that so? Hudson''s voice turned icy. ""You''re the only one who can see how well Calvin is performing.
Can Kate and Belle see it? Besides, when Belle left Calvin, didn''t she know that Calvin loves her?
Since she managed to leave, she won''te back for this reason. You have to think about other
aspects that arecking."""
"Paige''s face darkened. She said unhappily, ""No matter how you put it, you''re still implying it''s all my
fault. Have you ever thought that back then, if you weren''t sick, I wouldn''t have to be in such a panic,
and I wouldn''t have allowed things to be the way they are today. Great, now I''m the scapegoat, to
be med for everything. The Harvey family is amazing at making things hard for me. Now that I think
about it, what a sh*tty life I have. I''ve lived in your family for my entire life, and yet I am neither loved by
my mother-inw, nor am I adored by my husband. This is the life of a woman. At least Belle has
Calvin who loves her dTristany."" "
Tears started streaming down Paige''s face.
"Upon hearing this, Hudson felt sad too. He thought about how him being paralyzed in the past few
years had made her suffer. He immediately reached out to hold her and walked to the sofa. He helped
her sit down and whispered, ""Paige, I''m sorry. The rtionship between mothers-inw and
daughters-inw has been difficult to deal with, woven into the very existence of time. That year, I
pped you because of my mother. I feel guilty, even until today. Simrly, if Calvin went against the
woman he loves because of you, he will suffer for it. Our child is all grown up and is also so excellent.
This is something I am very proud of. We have ovee so many difficulties, and finally everything is
fine. We have a son, a daughter-inw, and a grandchild. As parents, we are more than happy, but we
can''t just stand by and watch as Belle and our grandson fend for themselves, right?"""
Hudson paused.
"Then, what should we do? There was doubt in Paige''s eyes. She looked up at Hudson with tears in
her eyes. Beingforted by her husband in such a light tone had somewhat calmed the grievances
she felt, reced now by a trace of sweetness in her heart."
"For our son''s sake, we can only deign Belle an apology. After all, it''s the Harvey family that owes
them. We need to be more generous. We''ll show them the magnanimity of our family and take the
initiative to approach them, tofort them, and to reassure them. As long as we''re sincere, I''m sure
they''ll return, Hudson said with a smile as he stared into Paige''s eyes. "
"Paige was taken aback, but slowly, she understood. "
You want me to apologize to Belle? Her face slightly darkened.
"Paige, it''s up to you whether you want to see your grandson. It''s not that I want you to apologize to
her, but we need to invite them back personally. If we give them a way out and show some respect,
they will be happy. Hudson held her in his arms and exined in a gentle voice, ""Besides, what''s the
point of this so-called dignity? Not to mention we are doing it for our son''s and grandson''s
happiness. Being embarrassed doesn''t matter much. What do you think?"""
"Paige leaned into her husband''s embrace, listening to his heartbeat. It made her feel much more at
ease. In the past, he hadid on his bed, in a vegetative state, unconscious. She had been afraid and
lonely, without support. At the moment, everything was fine. Hudson could make decisions for her and
it was all thanks to Belle. She remembered she had misunderstood her badly in the past and felt a
pang of guilt. Immediately, she smiled and nodded."
"There''s one thing. Do not mention our family background again. Kate has a very high self-esteem.
Now that her family has fallen behind, naturally she''s having a hard time. We cannot prod at their
shorings, and you certainly cannot dislike Belle''s family for being weak and powerless. I''ve told
you this in advance. So, you must keep it in mind. Hudson was happy when he saw that Paige had
agreed. However, he still reminded her. ""A woman from a family with a great family background may
not even be as talented as Belle. You can''t have your cake and eat it. We have to learn to be
grateful."""
"His words made Paige blush in embarrassment. She buried her head in his chest, and agreed
embarrassedly. "
"After Belle made a few dishes, Bailey helped set up the table. Soon, everything was ready. "
"Kate was about to stand up with her cane. Sergio got up hastily, and helped her up. Kateughed and
said, ""Sergio, these are just simple, home-cooked dishes. Please don''t mind."""
"Aunt Kate, you''re being too polite. It''s my greatest happiness to be able to enjoy the dishes made
personally by Belle, Sergio replied humbly. He helped Kate sit down at the table and spoke with great
attentiveness."
"After Kate sat down, she said to Belle with a smile, ""Belle,e, sit beside me."" "
"Belle had no choice but to sit beside Kate. However, she felt the weight of the stare on her. She
panicked and lowered her head."
"Sergio, would you like some red wine? This baby is made in France. It''s authentic. Kate picked up the
bottle of red wine in front of her and smiled."
"Okay, Aunt Kate. Let me do it myself. Sergio stood up in a hurry and said to Belle who had her head
down, ""Belle, have some red wine, please."" A smile was stered across his face. "
I can''t drink. Belle looked up and refused.
"It doesn''t matter. Red wine is not harmful to your health. On the contrary, it''s actually good. Sergio
pursed his thin lips and smiled faintly. He reached out to take the wine ss in front of Belle and
poured two-thirds of it skilfully. He ced it in front of her, and poured a full ss for Kate before he sat
down slowly."
"His movements were elegant, noble, perfect, and impable. In his military uniform, he was shining
under the quaint ceilingmp in the dining room. As he sat there, the whole dining room seemed to be
appear to be narrow. Even as dignified as he was, he did not give people an oppressive feeling. In fact,
he even exuded a very friendly and natural feeling."
"Kate sighed to herself. Back then, Ethan had been so blind. He''d insisted on marrying Belle off to the
Harvey family. If he had chosen the Xanthe family, the situation they were in would not have happened.
Who knew, maybe the whole family would be living happily. Belle, too, would not have suffered so
much. As she thought, tears welled in her eyes."
