"Belle, are you okay?" Rhys saw her embarrassment and sighed. This silly woman! Such an occasion! He had long persuaded her to ask a designer to match her clothes, but she refused. Now she knew it was embarrassing.
Lexie's dress was clearly designed carefully. For this, Rhys disliked this kind of makeup. After seeing it a lot, he was also disgusted, but there was no way. Even if he disliked this kind of occasion, but all the women were also dressed up like this, except the woman in front of him.
"I’m okay." Belle smiled and replied softly, with a relaxed expression on her face. She would not fall into such vanity. It would not have much impact on her. She firmly believed in the beauty of a woman would never show in this form. She had this confidence.
"Belle." Rosa also came over to comfort her. Lexie almost grabbed everyone's attention. Rosa also felt uncomfortable. She was worried about Belle. After all, Belle was still pregnant. So Rosa was afraid she couldn't bear it.
Rosa didn't believe that the child in Belle's belly wasn’t Calvin’s. Belle loved Calvin, which Rosa could feel as a woman.
"Look at that smug look, it's superficial and vulgar. It's disgusting." Rosa said with great disdain.
Hearing this, Belle raised her bright eyes to look at Rosa, sizing her up.
Rosa was wearing a plain pink dress today. It was a very simple style, but it could make her body shape look so good. Her hair was not braided or tucked. It was just as usual. With a playful smile, she was also so beautiful.
"Tsk-tsk, Rosa, you’re the most beautiful." Belle looked at her, joked, and chuckled lightly.
Rosa blushed, and smiled playfully at Belle, revealing two cute little dimples, with the blush of a girl on her face, which was extremely beautiful.
"Belle, I’ve told you to change into a beautiful dress, but you didn't believe it. Now, seeing that your limelight has been robbed by her. Calvin is even more reluctant to pay attention to you now." She pouted and said.
Belle laughed even more when she heard it. She smiled, "Rosa, today you and I are just the organizers of this banquet, not guests or the host. Our duty is to run this banquet well and not to make Harvey Mansion ashamed or make the guests feel dissatisfied, understand?"
Rosa was helpless. She could only blink and said with a smile, "Okay."
"Good girl. You can bring the guests in." Belle looked at Lexie's family who were taking photos with the media reporters, the she gestured to Rosa with her eyes and asked her in a low voice.
Rosa also knew Belle’s situation and agreed.
After a while, the media reporters finally dispersed. Lexie and the others walked towards this side.
"Calvin." Lexie saw Calvin who was standing calmly in front of the right at a glance. She hurriedly came over and took his arm, with a very intimate expression on her face.
The reporters who had just dispersed immediately circled towards this side again, and started questioning while taking pictures.
"Mr. Harvey, I heard that your wedding is coming, and it has been published in the newspaper. This time there should be real, right?" A reporter asked with a teasing.
"Of course, the date has already been set on the eighth day next month. It's only a week away." Calvin frowned. Soon a smile spread across his face. He didn't answer, but Lexie answered.
"Congratulate the two of you. You’re such a perfect match. It's really enviable." The reporter exclaimed in admiration.
"Yeah, I heard that Miss Johnson is pregnant. I don't know if it's true." Another reporter asked.
Lexie put the pose and smiled, "Don't talk about this. Leave us some private space."
With a shy face, she rested her head on Calvin's shoulder. From her face, it must be true.
"It's really a double happiness. Congratulations." The reporters complimented again.
"Mr. Johnson, Miss Johnson, please follow me to the reception room." Rosa was very upset when she heard it. She walked up to Tristan and Lexie, who were standing beside her, and said politely.
"Okay." Tristan also felt that the limelight was too much. He nodded, and was about to follow Rosa in.
"Dad, Mom, you follow Rosa in first. I should accompany Calvin and Mom to welcome the guests at the door." As soon as Lexie walked the door of Ink Garden, she saw Belle wearing a corsage for Calvin. They looked intimate. Calvin looked at her with all his attention, and didn't see them coming. Lexie felt so jealous. After she caught everyone’s attention, the anger subdued a little. She was going to marry Calvin soon, and of course she couldn't leave such a good thing to Belle. Besides, the person standing at the door to welcome the guests was the status symbol of host. It should be her standing by Calvin's side.
"Miss Johnson, according to common sense, you haven't officially married Calvin, so you can't stand here to welcome guests for the time being." Rosa hated seeing Lexie. She didn't want to stand outside with her to welcome guests.
"Mom, Calvin, do you think I can stand outside?" Hearing Rosa’s words, Lexie felt that she had lost face. Then she hurriedly asked the persons standing on the other side.
"Rosa, take Mr. Johnson and the others in first. Lexie and Calvin's wedding is coming soon. Just let her stand here." Hearing Lexie's words, Paige immediately came forward to defend it.
