Chapter 385 Finally Decided


    "Dad, I didn''t mean it. I just want to surprise you after I brought Belle and Jerry


    back. Calvin murmured."


    Surprise? Hudson snorted. "I''m afraid I don''t have the luck to enjoy that surprise of yours anymore."


    "He changed the subject suddenly, asking, ""How''s the investment of the petrochemical factory


    going?"""


    "This... Calvin was more taken aback that Hudson even knew about these things. He made a mental


    note not to underestimate Lomen anymore. ""Dad, this matter is a tricky one. Through the


    Property ? 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.


    investigations over the past few days, we found that the background of the petrochemical nt is


    "Yeah? Hudson nodded without batting an eyelid. ""Look, you know that this matter isplicated.


    Alright, I''ll ask you now. What are your ns?"""


    ns?


    A bitter smile was spread across Calvin''s face. He was set back by a remote chemical factory. It had


    never happened before. He was deep in thought and didn''t say anything.


    "Hudson nced at his expression, trying to understand it. ""This kid is at a loss now? Given the


    current situation, it''s impossible for him to stay in this small town for two months."" He thought."


    "Well, Calvin. Let''s give up on the chemical factory first. Now, let''s go back to A City, Hudson said


    decisively."


    Give up?


    Calvin looked at Hudson. He did not look like he was joking.


    "It''s just that, Dad, the problem regarding the car essories raw materials has to be solved. It took


    me half a year to find out about this factory. I can''t give up just like this. Calvin felt it difficult to open up,


    and he put forward his most concerning issue."


    "Even if you have 10,000 reasons, we can only give up on this factory for now. Hudson heaved a deep


    sigh. The light in his eyes dimmed and his tone was almost harsh. ""You can never have too much


    money. Harvey Group is sessful now, thus we don''t have to carry on. At worst, we''ll just make less


    money. You can''t have your cake and eat it too. Right now, safety andfort are our top priority. Let''s


    take care of our current business and let go of this raw material problem first."""


    He spoke in a grave tone.


    "Calvin realized that things were unusual. These raw materials needed to be solved urgently.


    Otherwise, it was not conducive to the long-term growth of thepany."


    "Harvey Group was currently involved in international development. Their focus would be on cars. After


    all, the development prospect of the car industry in the real economy would be the best. However, to


    solve this problem, to strive for greater profit, they needed to solve the issue of raw materials. They


    could choose not to, but they had to do it if they aim to be morepetitive."


    "He understood this problem, and obviously, Hudson understood it as well. Hudson said, ""Calvin, if this


    problem can''t be solved this year, we can solve it next year. It''s not something that requires immediate


    attention. We can''t take all the benefits. This will lead to disaster. You must know how many people are


    jealous of you now, and they are watching your every move."""


    "When Calvin heard this, he became silent and did not say another word."


    "Tomorrow, call Belle. Let''s discuss it together. We still have to go home as soon as possible. Hudson


    continued his orders."


    "At that time, Paige came out of the bathroom after changing her clothes. She smiled and said,


    ""Calvin, Jerry is so adorable. He looks like you. Even his temper and character are simr to yours. I


    identally lost his toy today. He cried and tried to fight me. He acted just like you when you were a


    child. He''s also smart. He disassembled a difficult car. In a blink of an eye, it was pieced together


    again. I don''t even know how to do it. How old is he?"""


    Paige said while clicking her tongue in praise.


    "When Calvin heard this, he was proud and his eyes exhibited tenderness."


    Jerry takes after his mother in her talent for cars. Belle is a rare talent at car design. A proud


    smile appeared on his face.


    Calvin looked like he could not wait to fly back. Paige knew that Belle and he were in love with each


    other at that moment.


    It''s gettingte. You should go back first. Let''s talk tomorrow. Paige shook her head. Calvin was not


    paying attention. He was obviously thinking about Belle.


    Calvin raised his eyes to look at the dark sky outside. It was indeed gettingte. He stood up and took


    his leave.


    Hudson did not stop him and only nodded.


    "Walking out of the hotel entrance, he was full of joy, and his footsteps were light. Even the dark night


    seemed to be covered with a sheen of golden light."


    Would Belle wait for him at home?


    "Now, he could rightfully take her home."


    They were able to stay together without any qualms.


    He quickened his pace at the thought of it.


    "In the yard, the house was dark, and the lights were out. Obviously, she wasn''t there."


    He suddenly felt a little lost and disappointed.


    "After switching on the lights, he took out his mobile phone and called her."


    "He didn''t want to sleep alone. He wanted her to keep himpany. Without herpany, he wouldn''t


    be able to sleep well."


    "As soon as he made the call, his call was declined. He was dumbfounded."


    He called her again and she declined his call once again.


    "D*mn woman. She dared to hang up on him. Was she acting like that because his parents invited


    her? He was deep in thought when he heard a message notification. It was a text from Belle. ""Calvin,


    I''m going to keep Mompany today. Go to bed Tristany."""


    "D*mn, how could she!"


    She gave him the cold shoulder.


    "Soon, his lips curled. They were heading back to A City soon, and they would stay together forever.


    They would never separate again. So, he wouldn''t care about this one night."


    "Now that he thought about it, he was no longer feeling dissatisfied."


    "The next day, Hudson called both Calvin and Belle to Calvin''s study."


    "Calvin, Belle, it''s just the three of us today. There''s something we need to discuss, Hudson said. He


    had just sat down when he spoke to Belle."


    "Belle looked at Hudson. This old man was in good spirits. It seemed like he hadpletely recovered.


    The previous day, it had been too sudden, and she had been too surprised even to size him up."


    She smiled at Hudson and nodded.


    "Hudson gave a thorough ount of the recent financial crisis of the Harvey Group and


    the petrochemical factory. He called Belle over because he did not intend to hide anything from her.


    After all, she had once served as the vice president of Harvey Group. She would make a good


    judgement about the priorities and urgency of the current situations."


    "Moreover, she would be the one in charge when she returned. There were some things that she had


    to help Calvin with. At the same time, it also meant that he trusted her."


    "Of course, Belle could understand this."


    "To her surprise, the petrochemical factory had such aplicated background."


    "It was no wonder Calvin hadn''t invested in time. There were so many unknown factors to it. Of course,


    he wouldn''t dare to act rashly."


    "The memory of Mr. Honding to her with the children emerged in her mind. The gleam of hope in


    his and the children''s eyes had left an impression on her. Although they had all been entrusted by Kyrie


    to approach her, she had witnessed the actual difficulties of the factory."


    "Belle, do you have any suggestions? After Hudson finished speaking, he turned his gaze towards


    Belle. He wanted to hear her suggestion."


    "Belle thought for a moment and said seriously, ""If there are so many unknown factors behind


    the petrochemical factory, I suggest that we hold back for the time being. Let''s wait and see."""


    "This idea was consistent with Hudson''s. Hudson immediately nodded and agreed with her. ""Yes,


    that''s what I think too."""


    "Calvin was deep in thought. Since Belle and Hudson thought the same, he would not persist any


    longer. He could not possibly take all the benefits."


    "Belle, you know that we hade to collect you and your mother, as well as Jerry, to go to Harvey


    Manor. Do you have any objections to this? Hudson changed the topic and asked Belle. If they couldn''t


    invest here, they could only return to Harvey Manor for now. They couldn''t dy for too long."


    "Upon hearing this, Belle blushed slightly as she looked up at Calvin. Coincidentally, he was also


    looking at her with a burning gaze."


    "You have no objections, right? You have to know that your mother has given us the OK. Calvin saw


    that she was not in a hurry to answer and was worried that she would go back on her word. Therefore,


    he quizzed her before she could answer."


    "Belle pursed her lips and clenched her fingers. She looked up and said clearly, ""Uncle Harvey, I''ll


    listen to you. I''m willing to go back with Calvin."""


    "Good. The smile on Hudson''s face was cordial. ""Belle, I have been waiting for you to say this. With


    your consent, everything will be easy."""


    "He gave a generous chuckle and said, ""Belle, you should change the way you address me. We will


    be a family in the future. You should also call me ''Dad'', alright?"""


    "He smiled, with a friendly and expectant look on his face."


    "Belle lifted her eyes and saw Calvin looking at her with a meaningful smile. There was a trace of pride


    in his eyes. She avoided his gaze and said, ""Dad, you''ve always been a father figure to me. Even if I''m


    not married to Calvin, I am willing to call you ''Dad''."""


    My goodness. She sounded so natural that her words both met the old man''s wish but also did not


    reveal her eagerness. She upheld her dignity.


    Calvin approved in his heart. "This d*mned woman sure knows how to talk and put on airs."


    "Alright, Belle. Calvin is my only son. You''ll take him on in the future. If he does something wrong, feel


    free toe to me. If he dares to bully you again, you must tell me as soon as possible. I will dish out


    the punishment he deserves, Hudson said happily, with a promise in his word. "


    "Yes, Dad. Belle agreed crisply and did not forget to nce at Calvin. The smugness was evident in her


    eyes."


    Showing favouritism again! Calvin lifted an eyebrow. He was helpless against his father''s preferences.


    "After chatting for a while, the three of them agreed that they would return to A City three dayster."
