Chapter 223 Bad Feelings
Chapter 223 Bad Feelings
"That's great." Rosa happily clapped her hands and laughed. She stared at Belle with her clear eyes
and asked playfully, "Belle, how is it? I just told you that Grandma would agree."
Belle smiled.
Her eyes were clear, innocent and simple. Her smile was also very simple, which was unlike Belle’s
smile with many meanings.
After Calvin and Albie left, Belle and Rosa came in and just came up with the idea. Just as Ruth
guessed, Grandma agreed immediately, and promised to give Belle 20 million to hold this dinner party.
She didn’t ask for anything, as long as it was lively and festive.
Belle and Rosa were both stunned.
They couldn't understand Grandma's thoughts. Even when Grandma was on her 90th birthday, she
didn’t allow others to hold a big party or show it off. It was a surprise to invest so much in such an
ordinary New Year's dinner party.
But since Grandma agreed and was happy to hold such a party, Belle didn't say anything.
Soon, the news that Belle was going to prepare a grand New Year's dinner party spread all over
Harvey Mansion. The whole family was excited. The peaceful mansion seemed to be filled with energy
and vitality all of a sudden.
Belle quickly felt the charm of being in charge of the family.
Many servants followed her, respected her, wanted to get some work from her and get some benefits.
Spending 20 million holding the party! The only request was as long as it was lively. What did it mean?
It meant spending money to buy happiness and spending money in a different way.
Therefore, it attracted many people, including some companies which relied on Harvey Mansion to
make money. All of them took the initiative to find a way to get close to Belle.
Sitting in this position with real power, Belle had a prominent reputation, which could be described as
very cool.
But Belle was as usual, neither humble nor arrogant. She didn’t approach anyone easily.
She knew this place didn't belong to her.
The office was located in Ink Garden. Belle came to work here every morning.
After thinking about it for a long time, she planned to set up the party on the central island and made it
look like a mysterious plum garden. Then she would prepare many kinds of food, set up a performance
stage on the central island and invited some celebrities and singers.
Because of the cold weather, she had to build some tents. There was an open-air high platform in the
center of Harvey Mansion, which was a good place. Standing here, people could overlook the night
view of the whole A City, and they could also enjoy the scenery and lake view of the island.
Such a design was made by Belle.
Rosa became the errand of Belle and followed her every day to make suggestions. She vowed to hold
this party well.
On this day, she sat in the hanging chair on the balcony and looked at all kinds of delicacies from all
over the world, hanging her feet. She felt content.
She liked to sit in the hanging chair best, where there was a warm plush duvet and it was not cold at
all.
Belle was always cold, so she sat in the office and worked hard.
"Martin, you're here." Suddenly, Rosa's surprised cry came from the corridor.
Belle was stunned and raised her head.
"Rosa, are you still used to living here?" Martin approached her with a smile on his face, and said
softly, "How’s your father?"
"He's fine, thank you." Rosa was blushed. There was a faint smile on her face. She stared at Martin
with her bright eyes.
"That's good, Rosa. I was going to visit your dad a few days ago, but there were too many things so I
didn’t go. Since you came here, just enjoy yourself. I will take you out when I’m free." Martin said
gently.
"Okay." Rosa replied somewhat unnaturally, and lowered her head a little shyly.
Martin's eyes flickered behind the glasses. He had a warm smile on his face and looked inward from
time to time.
"What is Grandma doing?" he asked casually.
"Grandma didn’t feel well these two days. She is resting." Rosa replied with a smile. Her eyes were so
clear, soft and gentle.
"Is she okay now?" Martin asked with concern, looking a little anxious.
"It shouldn't be a big problem. Ruth is an experienced doctor and she's taking care of Grandma." Rosa
smiled and replied quickly to reassure him.
"Okay, that's fine, then I can rest assured." Martin breathed a sigh of relief. A smile appeared on his
face.
"Aren't you going to go in and see Grandma?" Rosa stared at him suddenly and asked.
"No, it’s better not to disturb her." Martin hesitated for a while, then he said gently. After thinking about it
again, he said seriously, "Rosa, I just happened to be looking for you for something. Can I talk to you
alone?"
"Okay." Rosa was enthusiastic. She agreed very readily.
Martin turned around and walked outside. Rosa followed him closely. They two walked one after the
other.
Belle opened the curtains, and watched their distant backs.
From the appearance, they were so well matched. The girl was petite and exquisite. The man was tall
and powerful. They were really a perfect match.
It was just that Rosa was kind, but what about Martin? Could he cherish this marriage?
Belle sighed.
Based on her intuition, the reason why Martin approached Rosa was definitely not simple. If it wasn't
for love, what would it be?
Rosa was simple and not scheming, while Martin was very shrewd. If Martin played some tricks, Rosa
couldn’t know it at all.
Thinking of this, Belle felt uneasy.
After a while, Rosa came over. Martin had already left.
There was still a girl's blush on her cheeks. She looked so shy. There was a faint smile on her face.
"Rosa, who came over just now?" Belle looked at the ledgers and asked seemingly casually.
"It’s Martin." Rosa smiled. A touch of tenderness flashed in her eyes.
"Oh, it’s him. He should have come to see you." Belle said, "You have been here for so many days. But
you haven't seen him yet, right?"
"Yes, Martin is very busy." Rosa said considerately, "But he said that he would take time to take me to
the show these days."
"That's good." Belle smiled and looked up, "Is this what he just said to you?"
"Yeah." Rosa nodded.
"It turns out that he came here specially ask you out. It seems that he really cares about you. You will
be very happy in the future." Looking at Rosa’s shy look, Belle intentionally teased her.
"Not really, he just came to ask about my father's situation and wants to contact my father!" Hearing it,
Rosa was a little agitated. Her face became even redder, then she hurriedly defended.
Looking for Rosa’s father? Belle felt something bad.
Sure enough, Martin came here not to look for Rosa sincerely, but for her father.
Then what things would he have to contact Rosa’s dad?
Just for a while, Belle had a bad feeling. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
But she just hesitated and didn't say anything. She just shook her head and smiled, "Martin is really
bad. He doesn't usually visit your family. Now, you're here, then he remembers to please your father.
It’s so careless. You have to teach him a lesson and can't let him despise you."
A slight disappointment flashed across Rosa's face, but it was soon covered by a sweet smile.
In fact, she knew that Martin could be regarded as indifferent to her family in recent years. Except for
visiting her father at the request of Grandma during the New Years and festivals, there was almost no
contact at ordinary times.
However, she never thought much about it.
After all, everyone was busy!
On the endless turquoise golf course.
Calvin, who was wearing a sweatshirt, took a deep breath, straightened his arms and slightly bent his
legs. He held the club, aimed at the target, raised his hand, and swung the club. The ball flew out
quickly into the hole.
The pose was awesome.
"Great!" Albie stood on the side, looking at Calvin's perfect posture and the accuracy of the ball
landing. He was amazed. He liked golf the most, but he could never hit the perfect ball as the same as
Calvin. Whether it was posture or accuracy, he was not as good as Calvin.
This had simply become a sore spot in his heart. He spent more time practicing than Calvin.
Calvin was simply a genius. No matter what he did, he could finish it perfectly. Albie felt that he wasn’t
as good as Calvin. It was precisely because of Calvin’s talents in many aspects that he was so
arrogant and unruly.
But this time, Albie unexpectedly found that this arrogant guy seemed to be a lot low-key, and he was
much calmer. At least the light in his eyes was no longer so aggressive, and the smile on his face was
no longer so serious. Sometimes Albie could even see a touch of tenderness and sadness in his eyes,
which was rare.
From this, Albie thought that this guy must be disappointed in love or got some blows.
Albie swung the club and focused on hitting the ball out. Yes, he also hit the ball into the hole.
"Albie, this time you came to A City just to play golf with me?" Calvin asked indifferently after hitting out
another ball.
Albie held the club and narrowed his eyes slightly. After the ball was hit out steadily, he took a breath
and smiled, "It is said that Belle will hold a special New Year's dinner party for Harvey Mansion! Such a
good opportunity! I don't want to miss it, so I'm going to spend the New Year with you."
New Year? Calvin glanced at him and said sarcastically, "Come on, Harvey Mansion can't keep you
stay. Stop talking nonsense with me. Just tell me your plans. I'm busy."
What Calvin said was true.
Since Belle resigned, he had to deal with everything. These days, he had been working overtime until
the early morning every night. Sometimes he just slept in the office.
Being able to spare time to accompany him was Calvin’s most respect to him.
