Chapter 176 An Apple in His Eyes
"But... I'm afraid it will cost half of the assets of Harvey Corp. to acquire these companies. Our
company's current market value is about to evaporate by half. This..." Damian muttered. He didn’t finish
speaking, but everyone understood him.
"Don't worry about the funding issue. I have already transferred 60% of the assets to a project in
Europe in the past few days. Besides, I have made a small profit. It's enough. Believe me, we will see
the effect in less than half a month." Of course Belle understood their concerns, so she immediately
explained.
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone was pleasantly surprised. There was no more objection.
"Okay, that's it. Everyone goes to work." Calvin spoke calmly. His big hand stretched out from under the
table to hold Belle's cool hand. Belle looked up at him. Their eyes met, and then they smiled.
The staffs quickly got busy.
Before dark, there were rumors in the TV news that Harvey Corp. not only stood firm in the financial
crisis, but also took the opportunity to acquire the second largest economy in A City. It was indeed a
century-old company. The momentum was probably even more unmatched.
The entire company started working overtime for a week.
Calvin and Belle stayed in the office at the same time, watching the computer screen every day and
following various news.
Just when the market fell into despair, the government finally made a move, and began to transfuse
400 billion to save the market.
The market quickly stabilized.
Restarts were everywhere after decadence.
For the next two days, the orders were continuous.
All kinds of orders came in one after another.
All business in A City and even in the whole country had come to Harvey Corp. Even the global
business orders had increased a lot.
Harvey Corp. began to start another busy and rapid expansion, which stimulated domestic demand.
They started to build factories to recruit workers, which saved many unemployed people at the same
time.
Belle knew that as long as it got on the right track, Harvey Corp. would go so smoothly, and would
never decline. After passing this crisis, Calvin became more aware that eggs couldn’t be placed in one
basket. He accelerated the progress to develop in other countries.
However, Atkinson Corp just kept it as it was. In this way, the forces of Harvey Corp. gradually
penetrated into Europe, which had a great momentum to compete with Atkinson Corp.
After many days of tense work, Belle could finally have a relax.
Once relaxed, she felt dizzy and sweated.
"Miss Morris, are you okay?" When Monica delivered the report, she saw Belle sitting at the desk with
cold sweat on her forehead and her pale face. Belle looked very tired. Now, it was cold winter. It was
impossible to sweat.
Recalling the last time Belle fainted in M Country, Monica became very anxious.
"I'm alright." Belle was weak. She smiled weakly, but even her voice trembled a little.
Hearing what Belle said, Monica was more anxious.
"Miss Morris, hurry up and go to the hospital to have a checkup. You've been busy these days. I'll call
Mr. Harvey and ask him to accompany you." Monica hurriedly took out her mobile phone to make a
call, but was stopped by Belle.
"Monica, don't disturb him. He's also very busy these days. I'm really fine. It's a very difficult time. Don't
delay the big thing just because of me. I’m going to rest for a while."
Belle said and stood up. When she stood up, she felt so dizzy. Then she hurriedly held the desk to
balance herself before walking to the sofa and sitting down.
"Miss Morris, are you really okay?" Monica was so anxious that even her voice changed, but she didn't
dare to call Calvin, so she poured a glass of boiled water and handed it to her. Belle took it and drank it.
After a few sips, she felt much better. Then she closed her eyes and rested.
"Miss Morris, if you are not feeling well, I can accompany you to the hospital. Mr. Harvey will feel
distressed when he knows. We all hope that you will be well. When you were not in the company a few
days ago, Mr. Harvey always pulled a long face every day. Besides, he always lost his temper, so the
whole company was suffering. We all look forward to your coming back." Monica took a soft blanket
and covered her, complaining.
Belle smiled faintly and said, "So, these days, he is a complete tyrant. Even if I am here, it’s useless. I
am not his nemesis. How can I control him?"
"Of course that's not the case. We can see it. You are an apple in Mr. Harvey's eyes. As long as he
sees you, he will smile, and will be in a very good mood." Monica smiled, "It's so obvious. Everyone
sees that Mr. Harvey really loves you. As long as you stay in the company, we can go to work as happy
as before. Now, the company is good now. They all admire you so much. You have to be well."
Belle's face turned slightly red when she heard this. This was too exaggerated. She had only been out
for a couple days. Monica must be joking, so Belle just smiled and shook her head.
While they were talking and laughing, Belle's phone rang. She picked it up and saw that it was Calvin
who was calling. Belle immediately pointed at the phone, indicating that it was Calvin, as if she was
saying that they couldn’t let him know they were talking bad about him.
Monica smiled knowingly. Since Mr. Harvey called Miss Morris, she was relieved and walked out.
"Calvin." Belle answered the phone, smiled slightly, and greeted softly.
"Belle, are you done with the work?" Calvin's pleasant voice rang in her ears. His voice was very low
and soft. He seemed to be socializing outside.
"Yeah," Belle smiled and said, "I'm finally done with my work today, so I can rest."
She yawned as she spoke. She lay lazily on the couch, but felt exhausted. She actually was so weak.
After being busy for a few days, she felt tired and sleepy.
"I'm sorry for making you tired." Hearing her tiredness on the phone, Calvin felt very sorry. He said
softly, "Belle, don't leave after getting off work. Wait for me to pick you up."
"Calvin, if you have something to do, I can go back by myself." Belle said with a smile.
"No, wait for me to pick you up. We'll go to a place tonight." Calvin seemed a little flustered when he
heard Belle say this, so he said hurriedly.
A place? Belle was stunned for a moment. Remembering the last time, Belle was blushed slightly. But
she was so tired. She had been busy for so many days, so she just wanted to go home and have a
good rest. After returning to A City for a week, she had been pulling by Calvin to work overtime in the
company every day. Only yesterday afternoon did he take her to see her mother in person. Now she Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
was finally done with her work. She just wanted to sleep comfortably.
"Calvin, I just want to go home and sleep. I don't want to go anywhere." Belle pouted and stroked her
forehead.
"Be good. Wait for me to pick you up." Calvin coaxed her on the phone, but he was very persistent,
"Belle, I miss you. You are not allowed to go home alone. I want to be with you."
He said nervously, as if she would fly away. Belle laughed.
She still had to wait for him!
"Okay, hurry up then." Belle pouted and agreed.
After hanging up the phone, Belle was bored.
The staffs in the company got off the work one after another. They were all exhausted from working
overtime these days. They finally finished their work and left in a hurry.
Belle simply lay down on the big bed in the suite and fell asleep.
In front of the bright scarlet liquor cabinet, Calvin picked up a wine glass. He poured a full glass of
wine, and held it in his hand, with a cold and sharp smile on his face.
"Mr. Harvey, I beg you to let go of my small company." Marshall, the president of Hong Sheng Group,
was smiling, standing in front of Calvin and trembling all over. He was wiping away sweat.
Calvin raised his head slightly and took a sip of red wine. Then he picked up the glass in front of him,
handed it over and said with a smile, "Marshall, drink this one first."
"Okay, okay." Marshall took the glass with his fat hands and had to drink it.
"Not bad." Calvin took a step forward, patted him on the shoulder, and smiled.
"Just so so." Marshall was a little drunk. His face was really red.
He could drink. But after this glass, he felt that he got drunk. Then he panicked.
Calvin glanced at him sideways and picked up the glass on the table. He mixed several kinds of wine
together. After a while, a glass of dark blue liquor was in Calvin’s hands.
"Marshall, come, let's have another drink." Calvin smiled, and then handed the dark blue liquor to
Marshall's mouth.
This was the strong liquor, Ramos. No matter how good a person was at drinking, he would definitely
get drunk after drinking this.
Marshall already knew how powerful this wine was. The corners of his mouth twitched. He begged, "Mr.
Harvey, forgive me. I can’t drink this!"
"It seems that you disrespect me. You don't even want to drink a glass of wine. Well, since you are not
sincere, then you can leave." Calvin said lightly.
"Mr. Harvey, I can drink. I can drink." Marshall's legs trembled. He was shivering but he still forced a
smile.
"That's good!" Calvin smiled and put the wine glass to Marshall's mouth. Then he sneered and
suddenly grabbed his chin. Marshall was in pain and opened his mouth.
Calvin tilted his hands. Immediately, all the strong liquor was poured into Marshall's mouth. Suddenly,
countless black shadows began to overlap in front of Marshall's eyes. He felt that his stomach was
burning and painful. Even those people who liked to drink couldn't resist the liquor Calvin specially
prepared. Marshall began to totter.
