"Calvin." Lexie, who was in the room listening to the movement outside, heard Calvin's voice and rushed out to greet him. With a smile on her face, she took his arm, and called softly and shyly.
"It's so ugly. It's disgusting." Lottie felt sick by Lexie's pretentious look and got goose bumps.
Lexie pulled a long face. When she saw that it was Lottie who was taunting her, she suppressed her anger. After all, Hanna didn't know Lottie, but she still knew it.
"Lottie, I haven't offended you. It's not good for you to scold me like this." Lexie pretended to be weak, looking aggrieved. Her face was full of generosity and innocence, "Calvin, see, they are humiliating and scolding me in front of you."
Lexie was really aggrieved. Her plump boobs were tightly pressed against Calvin's arm. She pouted.
"Tsk-tsk, I've seen shameless people, but I've never seen such a shameless one. No wonder you can be the mistress." Lottie's eyes were fixed on Lexie's chest. She didn’t like such a woman the most. No matter whether Calvin was here or not, Lottie sneered without thinking.
"You..." Lexie was very angry. Seeing Lottie just staring at her boobs with disgust, she felt so ashamed. Then she had to move away the boobs that were clinging to Calvin. Her face was flushed with anger. She was speechless.
"Ahem." Seeing that Lottie's words became more and more outrageous, Calvin coughed heavily, frowned and asked Lexie.
"Lexie, what's going on here? Didn't I ask Belle to come over and apologize to you?" Although he asked Lexie, his tone was still very gentle.
"Calvin, I don't know what's going on. I've been in the room all the time." Lexie answered with widening her innocent big eyes.
"Stop pretending. It's disgusting enough." Lottie couldn't stand it any longer. She blurted out, "Calvin, don't you know it? They bully Belle. I stand up because it’s unfair. You look not bad, but I didn’t expect you would be so mean. You actually treat Belle like this!"
Lottie said so righteously, with contempt on her face, "A bitch! An asshole! You two are really a good match!"
That was sharp enough! Calvin was annoyed by her provocation. After all, this was Harvey Mansion, and he was the host here. Being scolded by a woman for no reason really made him so awkward. He immediately shouted angrily, "Lottie, watch your language. Here is not your home."
"Of course I know it. But at my home, such a disgusting woman can't even get in the door. Let me tell you, I'm not Belle. I can’t stand unfair. I’ll criticize everything unfair. Belle is kind. But I'm not a good person. I can't tolerate others to bully her." She waved her hand and her face was full of arrogance and disdain.
"According to what you said, today's matter is very unfair?" Calvin asked coldly.
His indifferent face made Lottie even more unpleasant. Thinking that some time ago, he was still trying to find Belle in her own coffee shop. Lottie didn't expect this man to change so quickly. She felt sorry for Belle. Now, Belle was still pregnant with his child. But he had the heart to let Hanna come over and kick her in the belly. Thinking about this, Lottie became even more angry, and scolded angrily, "You bastard! You even asked a wicked woman to kick Belle's belly. It's a shame...".
Before she could finish her words, Belle, who stayed by the side, was in a hurry. She hurriedly covered Lottie’s mouth and said anxiously, "Lottie, enough!"
"What?" Calvin asked Lottie coldly.
Lottie's mouth was covered by Belle. She instantly understood what Belle meant, and then she smiled bitterly. Until now, Belle was still worried about Calvin. But Lottie didn’t intend to say it out. In such current situation, Belle was really not suitable to stay by Calvin's side. Instead of being in so much pain, it was better to find another man for a better life. Besides, there was still Rhys who was willing to be kind to Belle. Lottie was not stupid.
So Lottie turned her head and looked at Belle, motioning her to let go, implying that she would not talk nonsense.
Only then did Belle let go of her hand. The deep pain welled up in her bright eyes.
However, Calvin heard it very clearly now. Lottie said that someone was going to kick Belle's belly. He quickly remembered something, feeling anxious. His face became cold. Then he quickly asked Lexie sternly, "Lexie, you actually asked someone to kick Belle's belly? Is there such a thing?"
When Lexie heard this, she was stunned for a moment. Then she quickly said aggrievedly, "Calvin, I really don't know there is such a thing. You can't blame me." Speaking of this, she tensed, and directly asked Hanna angrily, "Hanna, did that happen just now?"
With the current situation, it was almost impossible for her to stay in Harvey Mansion anymore.
As long as there was Tristan, Lexie must be Mrs. Harvey. Everyone knew it. It was impossible for Lexie to let Belle stay. Such a thing happened. It was just that Lexie wanted to drive away Belle.
It was just that what he couldn't understand was Calvin's mind. He always felt that there was a deep meaning behind the behavior, but he couldn't guess.
"Belle, go back to your room to rest. You don’t look well." Everyone left. Then Rhys stepped forward and said softly to her.
"Yeah, Belle, those things really have nothing to do with you. Why do you bother to work for this impersonal Harvey Mansion? See, no matter how much you do for the Harvey family, Calvin will not appreciate it. He just trusts that vulgar woman. Such a scumbag, no matter how good the conditions he has, it is useless. It’s not your type at all. He does not belong to you." Lottie persuaded Belle.
"Look, it's clearly Lexie’s fault. Calvin not only didn't blame her, but asked you to apologize to her. Isn't this hurting you? Don't be stupid! Just rest well and take care of yourself."
Under the persuasion of Lottie and Rhys, Belle didn't go to the plum garden today. She believed that as long as she didn't go there, she might be able to live in peace with each other. Sure enough, the rest activities went smoothly. Nothing like this had happened again.
The entire scene was directed by Rosa. If there was anything she couldn’t handle, she would call Belle. However, due to Lexie's obvious interference, many things were not done according to the established procedures, such as fundraising for the children in the orphanage. It was completely cancelled by Lexie. Even when it was time for the reunion dinner, those children were driven aside to eat leftovers.
But the event scene was still very popular. After all, Lexie was still good at lightening the mood.
Today was the New Year's Eve.
For Belle, New Year's Eve was spent in a drowsiness. She ate a little dinner casually, and spent the New Year’s Eve in a deserted state.
