NovelEnglishChapter 158
After the kiss, both of them were panting heavily...
Eloise was leaning weakly against the bathroom wall, and if it weren't for his support, she would have already
slipped onto the floor. Even so, her legs were still weak and shaky.
Harvey wasn't doing much better.
His handsface was flushed, his breathing uneven, as if he had been holding back for a long time.
"Eloise..."
His voice was unexpectedly hoarse, "What did Max say?"
Eloise, not wanting to bother the two elders, answered cautiously, "I don't know." Harvey's gaze was deep, and
hard to read.
After a moment, his voice, surprisingly gentle, he bent down and kissed her again.
"You don't want to talk, so you just wantto kiss you, don't you?"
Eloise was both embarrassed and annoyed, lightly kicking him.
"Harvey, why are you always bullying me? You said you want to start over... Do you really want to start over with
As she spoke, the corners of her eyes started to turn red.
Harvey didn't stop, but his kisses beceven gentler.
When it was over, he leaned his forehead against hers and took deep breaths.
"Eloise, I've missed you so much! Every man wants to be close to the woman he likes. If he doesn't have such
thoughts, then what kind of man is he?... Don't you agree?"
Eloise glared at him. He was talking nonsense.
Harvey chuckled lightly.
He took her hand and placed it on his handsface.
When Eloise's palm touched his warm skin, it felt as if she had been burned, and she quickly tried to pull her
hand back.
However, Harvey wouldn't let her. He could see her panic.
Not only that, he also gently pressed her against the wall, skillfully seducing her.
Eloise was not used to this!

She bit her lip, her face flushed.
With her hand in his, Harvey moved it around his face, his eyes full of seductive charm.
"Eloise... I'll let you bully me! Will you bully me, please?"
He had no shame!
Eloise abruptly pushed him away.
She was panting, her chest rising and falling tically, glaring at him.
Harvey was grinning.
It was too easy for him, a powerful man, to seduce a woman, and she, Eloise, was too insignificant.
She stood no chance against him!
But facing such an excellent man, Eloise didn't want to lose her head. Her
beautiful lips were tightly pressed, then she quietly said, "Attorney Horigan, I'll wait for your call!"
She could see that he really liked her body.
And that was all she could give him!
Eloise hadn't forgotten how much she had once longed for his affection. But after the passion faded, she realized
that his slight affection and pity for her were not enough.
She didn't want to cry for him anymore.
Harvey watched her expression, guessing her thoughts.
Surprisingly, he wasn't angry, instead he said, "I'll be away on business for half a month."
Eloise's gaze was calm as water.
He chuckled, "I'm not going to Britain, but to Rossland! There's slegal dispute
in Arellano Enterprises there, I'm going to sort it out."
Eloise felt a little embarrassed.
See, he knew exactly what she was thinking.
But Harvey didn't mock her.
He would miss her during his half-month business trip. If it weren't for Angus being sick, he would have wanted
to take her to Rossland no matter what. In his spare time, he could take her for ice beer and barbecued meat.
He gently stroked her hair, feeling a little reluctant.
Eloise also felt something.
When a man shows his true feelings, it's hard to hide. A corner of her heart's defenses quietly crumbled, but she
didn't want to admit it.
But how could Harvey not know?
He gently pulled her into his arms, doing nothing but holding her.
He spoke softly, "I'm taking Taylor with me, while Denise will stay in Peterborough.
If anything happens here with your dad, you can contact her, okay?"
His thoughtful arrangements, his kindness, Eloise felt she had no way to repay.
Harvey chuckled, "The flight leaves in an hour and a half!"
Eloise looked up, her gaze complicated.
Harvey didn't speak again, he just watched her.
Finally, Eloise said softly, "Have a safe trip."
"I was waiting for that!" Harvey leaned in to kiss her once, then considerately said,
"I'll go out first, you... want to stay in here a little longer?"
After Harvey left, the bathroom becmuch quieter.
Over the next few days, Eloise didn't know how much Michelle knew about the incident in the bathroom, but
Michelle kept bringing up Harvey inadvertently, speaking highly of him.
Eloise totally understood this sentiment. After all, Harvey's family background, looks, and emotional intelligence
were all obvious.
Older women would find it hard not to like him.
Later, Max cover twice more.
Angus didn't see him again, and he seemed to understand, so he didn't show up again.
Once Angus' condition stabilized, Eloise returned to work at Encore Soundworks, and took the opportunity to
make up for the classes she had missed. Harvey didn't contact her.
After saying those ambiguous words, he seemed to disappear from her world, but Eloise still saw news about
him.

He was in Rossland, fighting a lawsuit for Arellano Enterprises. Arellano Enterprises was the most famous
company in Rossland, with a big business, but because of sissues in its early years, it was always in trouble.
About two weeks later, Harvey made headlines in all the mainstream media.
In the photo, Stuart Arellano, the head of Arellano Enterprises, and Harvey were together!
Harvey looked full of vigor!
He was handsand cold, standing next to the 50-year-old business mogul, his aura not at all inferior. It was
not only due to his personal abilities, but also because of the backing of the Horigan family.
His family and the Arellano family were the top families in the south and north respectively.
Eloise looked at the picture, feeling a stir in her heart.
She found it kinda weird. This time, the Arellano family threw a massive shindig, and rumor ran that many
socialites and actresses showed up. Yet, there were no photos of Harvey with any woman that surfaced.
Of course, this was just a passing thought for Eloise.
She wouldn't dare ask him. That would make it look like she cared...
The truth was, there were things Eloise didn't know. All the paparazzi shots were wiped off the internet, including
the ones of the overconfident actress Linsay. Harvey was a bachelor billionaire. Wherever he went, there were
always women throwing themselves at him, even offering themselves on a silver platter. Midway through the
party, Harvey had a few drinks and found an excuse to slip away, leaving Taylor to handle the rest.
Stuart cared about him a lot.
He told his son, Dwight Arellano, "Go keep Harvey company! You might pick up a thing or two from him in the
car, instead of always messing around!"
Dressed in an expensive suit, Dwight didn't look the least bit serious.
Stuart gave an awkward laugh, "His mom passed away early, and I've been busy
with business, didn't really look after him. Harvey, don't mind him."
Of course, Harvey wouldn't hold a grudge against a kid.
He took a glance at Dwight.
The guy looked like a young boy!
But he responded amiably, "Your son is quite a looker. I'm sure he will accomplish
great things in the future."
That pleased Stuart to no end.
He loved hearing this kind of stuff!
