358 Dora’s Engagemen

In the evening, Bella went to the restaurant close to the sea in time.

Because it was far away from the city, in addition to winter, there was no tourism in the city, therefore there was no guest in the restaurant. Only a few couples who came to date, standing sparsely in several corners of the hall.

Steven and Bella had just entered the door, Anne greeted them.

"Young master, Miss!" Anne respectfully saluted and then let on one side.

Bella had not seen Anne since she returned to the Beck family. It was inconvenient for her to ask, only inquired, “Did Dora and Carl arrive?”

Anne reverently answered, "They have arrived, in the Crystal Palace Room 1."

Bella knew that she was talking about the name of the private room, but she didn't know the place and looked at Steven and smiled. "Please show me the way, brother."

"Fine." Steven replied naturally.

Crystal Palace Room 1, as the name implied, it looked like a crystal palace. The wall was made of multi-angled glass which reflected a very dazzling light. The luxurious and beautiful crystal lamp rotated overhead and shined multicolored light.

Although Bella was amazed by the decoration here, but she was even more surprised, why was there only Nick here?

"What’s up? You are unhappy to see me? Poor but rich woman!" Nick was well dressed, a suit and a stylish tie, as if the star to participate in the awards, who was so enchanting under the dazzling lights.

Bella looked at him and frowned slightly, "Where is Dora?"

Nick walked up to her and hooked his lips. "You haven't answered my question yet!"

Bella saw the stubbornness in his eyes and raised his eyebrows. "What question?"

“Do you feel unhappy to see me?” Nick repeated very patiently.

When Steven saw Nick making fun of Bella, he was somehow unhappy. He stepped forward in front of Bella, separating the confrontation between them, and said. "Bell’s body is not good, don't make fun of her."

Nick looked at him coldly, and his smile was a little evil. "Wow? Do you feel worried? It’s not your turn to worry about her? Charles is dead, as his younger brother to comfort my sister in law, is there any problem?"

Boom!

Bella’s body shook, as if the sky had collapsed, her eyes were black. It seemed that the whole world had turned over and turned around in a moment.

Her eardrum was filled with a sharp humming sound, only faintly seeing Nick's face with a disdainful smile, his lips were saying something.

She was awkward, Steven quickly held her, and looked at Nick hatefully. The voice was a bit angry. "Nick, you are enough, Bell’s body has just recovered. You shouldn’t make jokes like this, it will stimulate her."

Bella pushed Steven and forced herself to face Nick. Her ears were still humming, and squeezed a word hard out from her throat. "Char... Charles, he, is ... Is he really dead?"

As soon as the voice stopped, her tears came down. However, her eyes still looked at Nick without blink. Her ears were not very clear now, she could only stare at him, afraid to miss the time he spoke.

Nick stunned, and he did not think that his random joke would make her so sad.

He once heard Steven say that Bella fell in love with Charles, so he gave up.

However, what was love?

Nick saw Steven’s love for Bella. It was sacrificing and regardless of the return, which seemed to be stupid for him.

However, when he saw Bella like this, he was shocked. She looked very fragile at this time, as if the wind-dried stone statue on the beach, which could be down as long as the wind blew. But she used the power of her whole body to support her trembling body.

She was full of sorrow, but there was a hope in her eyes.

Nick’s heart hurt as if there was something that was taken away by someone, which gave birth to a strong unwillingness.

Why did Charles have everything, but he had nothing.

Charles had father's love and trust, but he was suspected of attempting to usurp the throne when he was doing his best for the Kingdom of the Sea; Charles had got the position of the King of the Sea, but he had been expelled from the Kingdom of the Sea, and he could never go into the sea; Charles treated his love unfaithful, but he still won Bella’s wholehearted love.

Why?

The anger and grief that suppressed half-century spurted out in a flash.

At that moment, he had only one thought, that was to grab Bella’s love to Charles. Charles couldn’t have everything.

Steven discovered the strangeness of Bella and quickly helped her, and explained it. "Bell, he is joking. Don't believe that, Charles will be fine. Bell, don't worry."

Steven looked at Nick and winked towards him. "Hurry up to explain it clearly."

Nick smiled very cruelly. "I said very clearly..."

Before he finished his words, the door of the private room was pushed, and Dora’s laughter came from the door. "Dangdang! Surprise?!"

Bella cleaned her tears and turned her head to look at the door, and she opened her mouth in surprise. She was really amazed.

Dora at the door was wearing a white dress, and the short hair to the ear was braided into a cute braid, with a faint makeup. Although the shape was simple, it looked like a bride.

And Carl, next to her, also changed the casual style as usual, wearing a very good suit, officially like a groom.

Bella pointed to their dress, her voice was still a little dumb, "Dora, are... you going to marry tonight?"

"Although it’s not, but it is almost the same." Dora looked so happy that she held Carl's arm tightly, and the happiness in her smile would overflow. "We are engaged tonight."

"Such an important thing, why don’t you tell me in advance that you are going to engage?" Bella was a little surprised, but more lost. "I didn’t prepare anything."

A friend who was like her family was going to be engaged, she had no gifts. Moreover, she was not informed in advance, this feeling made her so happy but also lost.

Dora looked at her and smiled proudly. "What’s up, do you feel a little bit unhappy?" She said naughtily. "This is ‘A taste of your own medicine’, you haven’t told me that you are married neither."

Then she saw Bella’s red eyes, thought that she was about to cry, and she quickly explained, "In fact, I don't want you to spend a lot for us. Although you are very rich. I think this is just an engagement, mainly to remind everyone that I and Carl are going to be a couple in the future. So, if you see me coming out of Carl’s home, you won’t have to be shocked.”

Bella didn’t know to cry or laugh. "But engagement is also an important event in people’s life. Would you be too hasty?"

"Is it hasty?" Dora took her into the seat and retorted dissatisfiedly. "I spent one month's income to buy such a formal dress, just to wear it for several hours today."
