Chapter 221 Special New Year''s Dinner Party
"Shut up." Calvin yelled angrily, "Idiot! Do you think everyone is as despicable and shameless as you?"
"I''m despicable and shameless? Are you noble?" Martin suddenly sneered, "You''re not much better
than me. I love Belle. I''ve never been reluctant to hurt her. But what about you? You deceived her.
From the beginning to now, you are deliberately hurting her. Are you still a man? Now Lexie is pregnant
with your child. She will not let you go. Don''t you feel ashamed? How many times you hurt her in this
life?" Martin smiled proudly, "God is fair. I can''t get her. You can''t even get her either. ording to her
character, how could she possibly forgive you?"
When Martin said this, he burst into tears withughter.
Hearing it, Calvin was stunned, feeling heartbroken. He clenched his fists.
"Bastard, isn''t that because of you?" Thinking of the scene of Hilton that night, Calvin was so angry. He
was like a lion and his eyes were about to burst into mes of anger. But Grandma''s words were still in
his ears, “You’re brothers! You’re family!” The descendants of the Harvey family were only him and
Martin. At this time, Martin was walking down a terrible road. As his brother, Calvin had the duty to lead
him to the right direction.
"Who bailed you out of the jail? What''s your purpose?" Calvin tried his best to suppress the anger,
forced himself to calm down, and shouted in a low voice.
Martin still had a cold smile on his face. He didn''t bother to answer at all.
"Martin, it isplicated now. You are involved in a murder case. You shouldn''te out of the jail at
this time. Only by listening to me can you have the hope to save yourself and clear the suspicion as
much as possible. Even if you have to be punished, you have to ept it. At least you won’t live with
the guilt in the future. You can live right out in the open in the future. The fundamentals of the Harvey
family are very strong. Even if you can’t find a job, it doesn''t matter. You can work in Harvey Corp. After
all, we are family. Now the descendants of the Harvey family are only you and me. We should support
each other and work together to maintain the prosperity of the Harvey family. You also know that the
Harvey family has a lot of industries and needs us to take care of it. These things are not big deal, but
you really shouldn’te out so unclearly now.” Calvin persuaded earnestly. He hoped Martin could
take the initiative to speak out those things behind him, which could also let him make the next ns.
"Tsk-tsk, what a perfect statement!" Martinughed out loud, with the distrust look on his face, "Stop
talking about moral hazard! Will I believe you? I''m not a fool. I can see these things with my eyes. I can
also think about them with my mind."
Martin''s eyes were full of indifference and disdain. He pointed at his heart and said angrily, "I have
already said it. I didn''t intend to kill Ethan. I just asked Bill to stop him toe to the election the next
day. That''s all! I''m a man. I just want to prove my ability, but that damn Bill actually killed Ethan. I
couldn''t do anything about it. I''ve said it countless times, but no one believes me. During these days in
the lockup, none came to see me and even tofort me. Now when I came out, you actually said this
bullshit to me? Who will believe you?"
The more Martin said, the angrier he became. His eyes turned red. He stared at Calvin coldly. Even the
blue veins on his forehead popped out.
"Enough! We don’t want to make more trouble, so we didn''t go to see you. It’s okay that you don''t have
to believe me. But don''t you believe your mother? She cried every day! How could it be that she didn’t
go to see you? It’s the request of the police station, which is also to protect you. We don’t want others
to think that we will bribe the police to clear your crime just because you are the grandson of the
Harvey family.” Calvin was furious at Martin’s stupidity and shouted loudly, "If things are really as you
said, it means that there are still many doubts in the case. Although it has not been found out yet, we
believe that we can find a breakthrough, provided you have to cooperate with us."
Hearing it, Martin calmed down a little, and came to his senses a little. But after a while, his eyes were
filled with fear again.
No! He didn’t want to go to jail.
It was so terrible and miserable.
How could Calvin be so kind to help him? This case already had solid evidence. Besides, his charges
had already been confirmed. It was impossible to change the result. He bribed Bill and asked him to kill
Ethan. He could only admit that he was unlucky. As for his real thoughts, who cared?
It was what it was. No one could change when there was solid evidence. So Martin didn’t need Calvin’s
fake mercy.
Now, Martin could only take this kind of informal means toe out of the jail. He really couldn''t think
of any good way.
Since someone could give him freedom, of course he had to cooperate well. This was the only way.
Martin thought so. He scoffed at Calvin''s persuasion.
"Martin, there are many ways to prove yourself, so why would you be so stupid to stop Ethan by using
such means? It not only harm others but also yourself." Calvin said to Martin, feeling so disappointed.
"You are one to talk! You have Harvey Corp. You have the ancestral legacy left by your father, and you
have your own business, but I can only rely on myself in the officialdom. No officials don’t take various
means to get promoted. Do you think you can get promoted just because you have the ability? You
take it for granted." The stiff muscles on Martin''s face trembled slightly. He said indifferently and
desperately,
"If you don''t have anything to do, I''m leaving. You don''t have to talk bullshit to me and waste my time."
After Martin finished speaking, he walked towards Fragrance Garden.
"Martin, I hope you can think about what I said, recognize the situation clearly, ande to me anytime
if you have anything. After all, I still don''t want you to be like this." Calvin said seriously to Martin who
had already walked away.
But Martin only paused for a while and then continued to take a step forward, walking towards the front.
The light in Calvin''s bright eyes was deeply helpless. He shook his head.
Downstairs in Fragrance Garden was a cold night wind. The bleak streetmps were shaken by the
autumn wind, looking lonely. The owl''s hoot sounded from time to time.
Calvin lingered downstairs, looking at Belle''s bedroom on the second floor, but his mood was extremely
heavy.
Martin was right. Lexie was pregnant. What should he do?
‘Belle, I''m sorry, I hurt you again.’
Calvin hit the tree trunk with his fists and closed his eyes in pain.
When Belle woke up early in the morning, she wanted to vomit again. Her stomach was also painfully
distended.
The morning sickness had improved a lot these days, but she would vomit sometime, which was very
ufortable. What made her even more ufortable was that she felt sluggish every day. She just
wanted to sleep. Besides, she had no appetite. She didn’t eat the food that was brought over by Emily.
In order not to cause them to worry about, she secretly threw it all.
Paige went to the hospital to visit Hudson every morning. Belle would go there in the afternoon and
tried not to run into her.
In this way, apanied by Lennox every morning, Belle handled the affairs of Harvey Mansion. In the
afternoon, she went to the hospital to see Hudson and her mother. When she came home at night, she

was very sleepy and just wanted to sleep.
It was like this for two days.
This morning, after Belle just woke up, she ran to the bathroom as usual and vomited for a while, then
she freshened up and went downstairs.
Rosa was already sitting downstairs waiting for her. She was the only guest who was approved by
Belle to live on the second floor.
With Rosa in the past two days, Belle''s life seemed to have improved a lot. Even at the dinner table,
Paige''s cold face towards Belle or Lexie''s hostility towards her were blocked by Rosa a lot. Rosa had
already seen Belle''s predicament. Because she liked Belle, and admired her talents, she helped her
almost without thinking.
The servants of Harvey Mansion had basically divided into two factions since Belle made a fuss in
Fragrance Garden and Grandma let her be in charge of the family. One faction supported Paige and
Lexie. After all, Paige was the heir, which was justifiable. Other people saw Belle''s potential, especially
when they saw Sophia’s and Calvin''s protection of Belle. They thought that Belle was promising, so
they chose her resolutely. Of course, some with calm temperament remained neutral.
Belle didn''t care about these things. Since she had no intention of staying in Harvey Mansion, she
naturally wouldn''t care about these trivial matters.
"Belle, are we going to buy some goods for the New Year this morning?" Rosa sat in the hanging chair
on the first floor of Ink Garden, and asked with great interest towards Belle who was reading the
ledgers.
"Well, the New Year''s Day is approaching. We need to buy some goods, but we don''t need to go in
person, just leave it to Lennox." Belle sorted out the ledgers and smiled slightly.
"Belle, you are in charge of the family this year. Do you want to hold a special New Year''s dinner
party?" Rosa asked with interest, tilting her head.
"Oh." Belle was very interested in Rosa’s whimsy. After all, the descendants of the Harvey family,
including the daughters and sons-inw, would gather in Ink Garden for three days and three nights. At
the same time, some celebrities who had good rtionship with the Harvey family would be invited to
gather together.
Belle came to Harvey Mansion to meet Grandma just at such kind of party. Rosa came to stay at
Harvey Mansion for a period of time before because of this kind of party.
It should be said that they had some special memories for such gatherings.
Therefore, when Rosa brought it up, Belle thought it good.
Over the years, since Grandma didn’t care about other things, the dinner party had been very
depressed. It was just that everyone got together for dinner and then left.
If Belle could hold this party well, there was no doubt that it would add a little joy to the lifeless Harvey
Mansion.
It was only twenty days before the New Year''s Eve. So it was not toote to do it.
"Are you interested in it?" Belle asked with a smile.
