Chapter 297 Fight


    "Belle, let''s go over there." Rhys said to Belle gently until Calvin took Lexie and the others past her.


    Belle nodded. Only then did she realize that she had been sping Rhys''s hand tightly and sweat


    dripped from her palm. She was flustered, then she hurriedly let go of his hand and panicked. When


    her eyes met the gentle and encouraging smile in Rhys’ eyes, she felt so warm, then she smiled


    embarrassedly.


    Suddenly, she felt someone ring at her.


    A cold light shot straight at her. When she looked up, the cold eyes disappeared again. When she


    looked again, she saw Calvin and Lexie standing on the high tform of the central ind, a very eye-


    catching ce.


    Was the cold light just now his?


    Belle wasn''t sure, but Calvin could see them there. For a while, Belle thought that the possibility was


    very small. After all, it seemed that such indifference between them should not exist.


    "Miss Morris, pleasee to this address at eight o''clock tonight." While Belle was thinking about it,


    she heard a gentle and polite voice beside her. When she looked up in shock, she saw a man in a


    ck suit with a white shirt and a ck tie. He was standing beside her, holding an invitation in both


    hands, bowed his head, and handed it to her respectfully.


    "You are..." Belle looked at him in surprise. The young man in front of her had a dignified and serious


    face, a humble and polite demeanor. He kept a certain distance from others, but he was so courteous.


    Such a man was by no means an ordinary servant. It reminded Belle of those bodyguards in ck suits


    beside the president.


    His behavior seemed well-trained, which was modest and courteous. He was not that kind of person


    who worked for ordinary people, but his face was very unfamiliar. Belle confirmed that she had never


    seen him before.


    "Miss, pleasee to the appointment on time. Everything will be understood by then. I have to go


    first." The young man bowed his head again and said. After he said and bowed his head, he turned and


    left.


    Belle watched his figure disappear on the road of Harvey Mansion, and then came back to her senses.


    She looked at the invitation in her hand, and put it into the pocket of her clothes after thinking about it.


    It would be eight o''clock in the evening. But now it was only morning, so there was still time. Let her


    think carefully before deciding whether to go or not.


    On the central ind, there were all kinds of pastries and champagne in the rectangr dining table,


    which smelt good.


    Belle looked around. Rhys was gone. Then she nced at the crowd. It turned out that someone pulled


    him over to chat. Only then did she remember that when he walked away, he seemed to say to her,


    “Belle, wait for me here. I''lle back soon.”


    Belle shook her head and smiled. She was restless all morning. What was she thinking about!


    In fact, this New Year''s banquet had nothing to do with her anymore. Thinking that she would leave


    tomorrow and maybe she would nevere back, she felt so sad.


    "Come on, drive all these beggars away." There was a loud screaming over there. Belle was startled,


    and looked over, only to see P and Esme. A few of them had probably never seen so many delicious


    things before, so they wolfed down and were disgusted by Lexie. She was instructing the security


    guards to drive them out.


    "No, we were invited by Mrs. Harvey." P and Esme said timidly when they saw Lexie.


    "Mrs. Harvey? I''m standing here, but I''ve never invited you nasty beggars. Tell you guys, everything


    here is of great value. If you break one, you won’t afford it at all. Be wise and get out." When Lexie


    heard what they said Mrs. Harvey, she couldn''t help but be wicked. Of course she knew who it was.


    She was so mad. After speaking viciously, she instructed the security guards to get them all out.


    "Don''t drive us away. Mrs. Harvey said that she would donate money to our welfare house, and she


    would also donate money to let us go to school next year. Please!" Esme was a little older than other


    little children. She widened her eyes, sped her hands together and begged Lexie.


    Lexie nced at her with disgust, and turned her face away coldly, as if she didn''t even bother to say a


    word.


    "Go away! If Mrs. Harvey is unhappy, we’ll demolish your welfare house." Several security guards


    rushed over and chased them fiercely.


    "Stop." Belle rushed up and yelled at the security guards.


    When the security guards looked up and saw it was her, they stopped immediately, but said


    embarrassedly, "Mrs. Harvey, that Mrs. Harvey has spoken to drive them away. We can''t disobey the


    order."


    "Hmph." Belle sneered, "I invited them here. There will be a charity donation event soon. How can you


    drive them away? You guys go away and leave it to me."


    When the security guards saw Belle protecting those children, they didn''t know what to do for a while.


    "Someone is really from the countryside, and even the people she invited are vulgar beggars." Lexie


    saw the situation here. Then she walked over andughed disdainfully.


    Belle didn''t even look at her, just said coldly, "This New Year''s banquet is hosted by me when I was in


    charge of the family. I got the consent of Grandma, so the guests I invite can''t be driven away at will.


    The scheduled activities I set should also be held as usual and cannot be cancelled at will.”


    After she finished speaking, she turned to P and Esme, then she said, "Come on, I will take you


    guys to the side to eat."


    After speaking, she led them to the side.


    "Stop, Belle." Lexie was annoyed by Belle''s attitude of not taking her seriously, and immediately


    shouted angrily, forcing a step forward.


    "What do you want to do?" Belle turned around, red at her and asked back.


    Belle’s eyes were calm. The light in her eyes was terrifying, scary and invible.


    Lexie was startled and felt a sense of fear.


    "Get these beggars away. I''ve canceled this event." Lexie calmed down and said sternly.


    "Impossible. I invited them, and it must be held as scheduled." Belle firmly met Lexie’s provocative


    gaze, confidently.


    Lexie suddenly felt helpless. It seemed that it was difficult to win her in terms of momentum.


    "Okay, you go and invite Mr. Harvey toe." Lexie was a little panicked, but she still said to the


    security guard beside her calmly.

    It seemed that it would be difficult for her to gain the upper hand in the battle with Belle, which made


    her very dissatisfied. Today, she must stand firm, and only in this way could she establish her prestige


    and self-confidence. After all, she had Calvin''s support behind her now.


    After a while, Calvin arrived in a hurry.


    "What happened again?" Calvin saw Lexie and Belle standing together and staring at each other. He


    felt headache.


    "Calvin." When Lexie saw Calvin, her eyes turned red immediately. She threw herself into his arms,


    and said coquettishly, "This woman used her power to oppress me. You can''t let me disgraced in


    public."


    It was really troublesome.


    Calvin nced coldly at Belle who was standing awe-inspiringly. Her face was full of stubbornness. Her


    face was red because of anger, but she was holding a few children from the orphanage. Then Calvin


    quickly understood what happened.


    "Calvin, the children in these welfare houses are vulgar, and make a mess here. This is Harvey


    Mansion, not a shelter. Today, all the guests who came here are famous celebrities. How can these


    children be allowed to mix in? This will make the guests unhappy and disrupt the order of the banquet,


    and only embarrass Harvey Mansion. Now the media is broadcasting live here in all directions. If this


    continues, it will only ruin our banquet this time. This woman is stupid, and she has to get these people


    here. What do you think of?" Lexie said to Calvin with confidence, and there were sufficient reasons for


    her to resist.


    Originally, Belle arranged for P, Esme and the others to be in a certain area. Just because Lexie


    canceled the benefits yesterday, they were still young, with little knowledge, and no one cared about


    them, so they ran around unwittingly. But that didn''t really affect anything.


    "I don''t think so. It has nothing to do with wealth and poverty. Some people look bright, but they are


    despicable in their hearts. Although those children have no money, they are kind. Besides, they are still


    young. Here, they didn’t get the receptions. Even if they did something wrong, it can''t me entirely on


    them. It''s not their fault that they don''t have money. Rich people should carry forward the spirit of


    helping people in need. A wealthy family that is not praised, and apany which doesn’t care about


    others, will not go far in the future." At the moment, Belle also responded without showing weakness.


    Calvin had already understood their conflicts, then he immediately cleared his voice.


    "That''s it, Lexie." Calvin had an iparably gentle smile on his face. His thick and slender eyshes


    fluttered, and his charming eyes shone with a sly light. He put his arms around Lexie''s shoulders and


    said softly, "Let''s go to toast our rtives and friends over there. These children won''t eat a lot, so just


    let them be here."


    "Calvin, are you covering her up like this?" Lexie asked in dissatisfaction. She just stood still.


    ‘Calvin, if you let Lexie drive these children away today and cancel this event, I will make a clean break


    with you, so that you will never see your child.’


    Belle stared at Calvin''s face, swore silently, and put her hand on her belly. The look in her eyes was so


    determined.


    Calvin sneezed abruptly. He hurriedly took a tissue and wiped it, only to feel his right eyelid twitching.


    He touched his hair with his hand and looked at Belle who was standing in front of him. Seeing the


    unfriendly expression on her face, he thought to himself, ‘You must have been scolding me just now.


    You betrayed me. Don’t you feel embarrassed to ask me to help you?’


    Thinking of this, Calvin just smiled and put his big hand on Lexie''s waist. His tone was soft but with a


    hint of coldness. He said as if persuading andmanding.


    "Lexie, you also know that today''s banquet is attended by famous people. It''s not good to leave them


    out. Driving these children away in front of the media will make people think that our family is too petty,


    and bully the weak. The loss outweighs the gain. In fact, it is not harmful. I will meet one of your


    requirements today as thepensation for you, okay?"


    Again! He indeed knew how to coax women! If the person he fooled wasn’t Lexie, Belle would definitely


    apud him. Men just used sweet words to capture a woman''s heart!


    Sure enough. Hearing it, Lexie surrendered. She blushed and smiled brightly.


    "Really? Calvin." She asked sweetly while leaning against him.


    "Yeah, baby."


    The two walked towards the other side while talking intimately.


    Belle breathed a sigh of relief. She finally saved these children.
