Go After My Ex-wife
Chapter 50 Awkwardness
When Belle stood like a fairy on top of the stage, Rhys' eyes barely left her for a moment, his face full of appreciation, all of which fell into Calvin's eyes and made him very uncomfortable.
He understood the meaning of his smile very well.
It was a demonstration.
He had Lexie and he could chase Belle openly, that's why he was smiling so comfortably.
Damn it, Calvin's heart was filled with anger.
When Belle came down from the stage, she saw Calvin taking Lexie's hand to the centre of the stage. Calvin was in high spirits, Lexie was smiling brightly, which made Belle's eyes swell and blinding.
Her heart felt like it was stuffed with stones and it hurt like hell.
Today he had successfully signed a big deal, and the transformation period of Harvey Corp's car was perfectly laid out.
All of this would have nothing to do with her and she would not be needed.
There was no need for her to stay any longer either, she thought.
"Belle." Rhys arrived at her side with poise and a gentle, appreciative smile on his face.
"Rhys, you're here too." Belle turned her head and bumped into the bright eyes that were looking deeply at him, the praise in them was unconcealed.
"That's for sure, with you here, I am bound to come and see you." Rhys was gentle and courteous, "Belle, you've done it again, losing you is my greatest loss and the loss of the Atkinson Corp, I wonder if I'll have the chance to ask you back."
His words were half flirtation and half serious, this was clear to Belle and she couldn't help but smile.
"Come on, let's go and sit outside." Rhys brought it up at the right time, Belle was having a hard time staying and wanted to take it easy, so once she heard that it was just what she wanted, she followed him and headed outside. This place no longer had anything to do with her.
The celebration party soon began.
Outside, a rectangular table was set up on the turquoise lawn, each with a high class chef and bartender, catering to the tastes of the young. The indoor banquet hall was even more luxurious, with expensive wines and liquors on every long table, and all kinds of exquisite pastries and snacks from all over the world, to suit almost everyone's taste!
People who were older were basically in the banquet hall inside, while Belle did not like the dull atmosphere, so she just stood outside all the time.
Rhys accompanied her, not leaving.
The light music was moodily declaring the atmosphere.
"Cheers!" Rhys lifted the champagne towards Belle, who had taken advantage of the gap in the charity event to change her clothes, looking cheerful and lively.
She smiled lowly and raised her glass too.
The glass dipped to her lips, and the sweet champagne paused in its movement before it could slip into her mouth.
Her eyes were fixed ahead, her heart was about to jump out of her chest and her face was tinged with embarrassment.
Calvin was walking towards her in a straight suit, with a rose-red corsage on his chest, the corners of which were edged with a circle of bright purple orchids.
