Chapter 743 You Must Not Look For A Stepmother For Me


    "Martin, what happens if Calvin continues on like this? He''s still young. He can''t go on living like this,


    can he?" Rosa''s eyes crinkled with concern. It did not matter what he did, for Rosa wouldn''t be able to


    watch. If he remarried, then Jerry would be too pitiful. If he did not remarry, then he could not go on like


    this anymore. After all, Calvin was still young. Besides, he was a talented man with a sessful career.


    She knew that he wouldn''t be short of any pursuers.


    She felt extremely irritated at the thought of this. She hated Zoe and Lexie to the core.


    "I despise both Zoe and Lexie with passion. We should have made them suffer for what they''ve


    done. It was such a waste to let them die just like that," Rosa said with hatred.


    "You''re right."Martin held her hand tightly and sighed. "There''s no good karma for being a good person


    in this world. Good people don''t live long. It is so unfair."


    "Martin, I just want to tell you that no matter how busy you are, no matter what you encounter in the


    future, you must find a way to help Calvin. You have to manage thepany well, or else it will be hard


    on Calvin," Rosa ordered seriously.


    "Yes, my wife," Martin immediately responded.


    Calvin arrived at the bedroom on the second floor. He washed up, having no intentions to leave the


    room again that day.


    Just as he was about to get ready for bed, he heard a slight noise by the door.


    "Jerry,e in," Calvin shouted towards the door.


    After a while, Jerry, who was pacing back and forth at the door, entered the bedroom. Aunt E had


    helped to get him cleaned up and he was then dressed in afy T-shirt. At that moment, Jerry looked


    handsome and cool.


    Calvin could not see his handsome face, but his voice sounded particrly like Belle''s.


    Jerry''s features looked more like Calvin and bore a little resemnce to Belle. With such an impressive


    gene pool, it was no surprise Jerry turned out to be a pretty attractive kid. This was also the reason why


    everyone adored him. It was just that his voice sounded very simr to Belle''s.


    "Dad, do you miss Mom?" Jerry walked in and asked loudly.


    Upon hearing his voice, Calvin thought of Belle. He instantly felt a pang of sadness in his heart and


    became slightly absent-minded.


    Jerry sighed when he saw Calvin in a daze.


    "Boy, why are you sighing at such a young age?" Calvin was finally brought back to reality by Jerry''s


    sigh. For some reason, he was a little annoyed. His son was already sighing at such a young age.


    "C''mere, son." He held out his hand to him.


    When Jerry saw this, he obediently walked up to him.


    Whenever he was in a situation like this, Calvin would always dote on him. Of course, he understood


    this point.


    Calvin bent down and picked him up.


    He stroked his head and asked lovingly, "Jerry, do you miss Mom?"


    "Yes, I miss her a lot, but she''ll nevere back, will she?" Jerry said as tears started to well up in his


    eyes.


    "No, she wille back. I''m sure she cannot bear to part with you and me. She''ll definitelye


    back." Calvin really did not know how to exin to Jerry the meaning of life and death. He could only


    In fact, as soon as Calvin had woken up on the day of the incident, he had immediately gathered a


    search and rescue team to try and scour for Belle''s body in the river. However, after hours and hours of


    searching, they had only managed to find Lexie''s body. Belle''s body was nowhere to be found.


    He had spent a mad amount of time trying to find Belle''s body, but since the water current had been


    raging, even until that day he was without any news about it. Nothing belonging to Belle had been


    discovered, and it seemed as though she had disappeared from the river.


    Logically speaking, if a pregnant woman like Belle had fallen into such a deep river, the possibility of


    surviving was very slim. Even though they were unable to find her body, they could not rule out the


    possibility of her being dead, because the chance of her surviving was little to none.


    After all, the river current had been too strong. After the branch flowed into the moat, the scope and


    depth of the river elevation were beyond his imagination.


    Some time ago, when they had begun clearing up the debris on Sunshine Mountain, the police had


    managed to find Zoe''s body. She had been burned beyond recognition.


    Due to all the crimes that Zoe hadmitted, the Public Security Department had decided to search


    her house and the Mariya Church on Sunshine Mountain. They had unearthed no small amount of


    evidence, as well as some of Zoe''s men. Her men had exposed all of Zoe''s crimes to the police.


    The police had reopened Octavia''s case ording to the evidence that they had collected. In the end,


    Octavia''s prison sentence was reduced to one year. In the same year, she had been released from


    prison and had returned to Sovento to reunite with her mother and brother.


    Calvin refused to believe that Belle was dead. He would onlye to terms with it when he saw her


    body. As long as he did not see it, he would not admit that she had died.


    "Then, Dad, when will Mom being back to see me? Everyone says that she''s already dead," Jerry


    asked pitifully, tears dripping down his eyes.


    Calvin hugged him tightly, feeling stabs of pain in his heart.


    "Jerry, Mom had always hoped that you would grow up and be a useful person in society, am I right?"


    he asked in a gentle tone.


    Jerry thought for a moment, and then he nodded.


    "That''s right. If you study hard and be a good boy, then I''m sure Mom wille back and see you,"


    Calvin exined, after thinking for a moment.


    When Jerry heard this, he nodded his head seriously.


    "Alright, then. Dad, from now on, I''m going to study diligently. I want to show Mom what a good boy I


    am," Jerry replied solemnly, his chest puffed out.


    "That''s my boy." Calvin felt a twinge of pain in his heart. He smiled in relief and caressed his soft hair.


    "But, Dad, you have to promise me something." Jerry thought of one very important matter, and


    immediately brought it up.


    "What is it?" Calvin was caught by surprise. He had no idea what request his witty son would have. He


    had a hunch that something was going to happen when Jerry hade to him, but he wasn''t sure


    what it was.


    "Dad, you''re not allowed to find me a stepmother. You are not allowed to remarry, alright?" Jerry stared


    into Calvin''s eyes as he spoke in a very earnest manner.


    Oh, so that was it! This young fellow can still be very soft.


    Calvin paused for a moment and smiled. He made a solemn promise to Jerry. "I can promise you this. I

    will not remarry and that your Mommy will be my only wife in this lifetime. Don''t worry, I promise I will


    not look for a stepmother for you in the future."


    He said it very seriously. It sounded as if he was mumbling to himself, yet it also came across as if he


    was making a promise to himself.
