The New Year's Eve had finally arrived in the expectation of everyone.
The Harvey family's special New Year's dinner party, organized by Belle and Rosa, officially came.
Early in the morning, the servants and staffs in Harvey Mansion all started to get busy after the meeting in Ink Garden.
Belle and Rosa explained the main points at the meeting. After that, they sat in the office, preparing big fat checks and counting the gift list.
According to regulations, everyone who visited Harvey Mansion would receive a big fat check and gifts. This showed the wealthy of a rich family. This 20-million-dollar dinner party had already attracted the media and entertainment reporters. They all came over.
Since 8:00 in the morning, the gate of Harvey Mansion had been filled with usherettes, big banners and colorful flags fluttering in the wind.
All kinds of luxury cars began to drive in slowly. Soon, the underground parking lot was full of cars. Later, a few parking spaces were temporarily opened.
In this party, the Harvey family only invited some dignitaries from A City and some old friends of the Harvey family. It was so grand and lively. Belle tried her best to meet Grandma’s requirements.
Belle and Rosa stood at the gate of Ink Garden, waiting for the arrival of the members of the Harvey family. Here was where the Harvey family greeted the guests.
From a distance, Belle watched Evan come over with his wife and Martin.
They walked over from the path outside the gate of Ink Garden.
Evan was not as tall and burly as Hudson, but he was well-proportioned and his facial features were straight, especially those shrewd eyes that always showed a shrewd look when he looked at people.
Belle glanced at Ink Garden’s clock. It was exactly nine o'clock. They were very punctual.
"Mr. Evan, Madam, please come here." Belle greeted them and made a gesture of invitation, smiling politely.
"Okay." Evan looked at Belle, smiled meaningfully, and nodded kindly.
Belle led them to stand in front of Rosa on the left. Then Rosa distributed the corsages in her hands to each of them, doing a demonstration to make them stick on the left chest.
Generally, only the son and grandson of the host's family would welcome guests.
After settling down Evan, Belle stood on the right and waited for Paige’s arrival. In fact, Hudson was still in the ward and couldn't stand up at all. So only Paige and Calvin would come.
But after a long time, Calvin and Paige still didn’t come. After 9:30, the guests were going to the reception room and conference center of Ink Garden. It would be very insincere if the host didn't stand in front to greet them.
Belle stood alone on the right. Seeing that another 20 minutes had passed, she still didn’t see Paige and Calvin. Then she felt a little anxious.
If they didn't come, she, an outsider, couldn’t stand here to greet the guests.
The invitation and the detailed process had already been sent to them.
Belle stood a little uneasily, staring outside. According to the normal procedure, after arranging Paige and Calvin, she would go to the backstage to prepare for the welcome ceremony. After all, all the guests would have a rest in the lounge. At eleven, they would enter the conference center. She and Rosa would be the organizers. During the period, Evan and Calvin would be invited to give welcome speeches, and then answered questions from reporters and media. Then there would be lunch. The dinner was the reunion meal, which was the key point. They would dine in the tents on the central island, and then the three-day banquet started.
The performances on the New Year's Eve, all kinds of plum appreciation, and fireworks would be the climax. There would be a lottery session in the next few days. Except for the celebrities who were present in the business and political circles, Belle was ingenious and invited some orphans, widows and elderly people to the party from the orphanage and welfare home. She made other arrangements. She prepared a charity donation activity. She didn't want the 20 million dollars of Harvey Corp. to be wasted in such a meaningless way. Instead, it was better to help those in need.
At 9:29, Belle saw Rhys come over. He was gentle and elegant. Belle was stunned. This point was neither the arrival point of the guests nor the arrival of the host. He actually came at this point. He had seized the opportunity. So smart.
Belle understood his intentions. He wanted to protect her. For the next three days, he was her lover.
This was very rare for Rhys, who had been always mysterious, to appear in public so publicly.
When some media reporters saw Rhys coming, they rushed over to take pictures, but were blocked by Rhys.
"Belle, it's very good, with joy and style." Rhys approached with a smile and praised. He left here early last night because of something. Now, he came here early today. He should come here at half past ten. But he was worried about Belle, so he came now.
"Thank you." Belle said and smiled, "Rhys, I'm sorry. I made you be taken of the pictures."
Someone took pictures of them. Belle felt guilty and said in a low voice embarrassedly.
"I've said I’m willing to do everything for you. You're still talking this to me. Are you trying to make me angry and unhappy?" Rhys' face was full of reproach. Although he reproached, his tone was very gentle.
Belle smiled and was speechless.
She was wearing the one of the couple rings on the ring finger of her right hand, and the oversized diamond caused a pain in the palm of her hand.
This diamond rings were still the unique couple rings in the world customized by Calvin when they were in love in Hawaii. They were the only two rings in this world. He once said that she would not be allowed to take it off and would wear it forever, so she always wore it. Then it had become a habit after wearing it for a long time. She never thought of taking it off. It was not until Calvin looked at her hand that she realized it, but it was too late.
In the panic, she unconsciously looked at the ring finger of his left hand. He was wearing the other of the couple rings on his left hand. Just looking at it like this, Belle felt that her heart skipped a beat. Her face turned red. She turned her head, took a few steps back and stood still.
At this moment, she saw a golden light shining in front of her. The sound of high heels mixed with steady footsteps was very ear-piercing.
This voice made Belle feel very uncomfortable. The moment she looked up, she saw Paige, who dressed in makeup, walking over with Tristan's family with a smile on her face.
Jennifer wore the red cheongsam, with her hair tucked behind her head. Besides, she was wearing a large mink fur, carrying an exquisite and expensive handbag in one hand and holding Tristan’s arm in the other. Tristan was in a suit and leather shoes. With a high-spirited face, Jennifer showed a proud and noble smile on her face. Seeing this, Belle felt upset.
Even more eye-catching was Lexie walking in the middle.
She was wearing a black dress with a V-neck and a large pleated veil. Although it was winter, she still exposed her cleavage. She wore light pink veil, with a green mink coat. She looked mature, charming and seductive.
Her face with makeup looked so beautiful. She did the popular hair style. The corners of the hair were braided, and the earlobe and beautiful neck were just exposed. The two large diamond earrings were shaking while she was walking, emitting a dazzling light. It was really beautiful.
Lexie's dress was really innovative and extravagant, which was in line with the identity of Mrs. Harvey.
Since she appeared at the gate of Ink Garden, she caught everyone's attention.
Hanna also stood beside her in a beautiful dress, holding a beautiful little umbrella for her.
Lexie was surrounded by a group of dignitaries like Paige, looking so gorgeous.
Immediately, all the media reporters swarmed up and surrounded her.
Belle lowered her head, took a step back, and glanced at the long dress that looked like a maternity dress on her. This comparison was simply huge. There was a wry smile on her face. Lexie was born in a wealthy family and had a prominent family background. Tristan would soon be the mayor of A City. As Paige said, she could only blame her family for not having a background. This was her fate. She couldn't blame others.
Thinking of her mother on the hospital bed, Belle gradually calmed down. She hid her right hand in the pocket of her woolen coat and stubbornly took off the diamond ring with her thumb. Because of the force, her face was red.
