Tangled Temptations

Chapter 16

After wrapping up at work, Harvey turned down a few offers and drove himself to the restaurant.

At 8 p.m., the busiest time for the restaurant, Eloise was at the piano. She was in a smoky grey long dress tonight, baring her shoulders subtly, with her silky long hair resting gently around her waist.

She looked stunning, radiating a romantic aura.

Harvey, from behind his car window, watched her quietly for about ten minutes before he got out of the car and pushed the door open to go in. He ordered some random food and leaned back in his chair, continuing to listen to Eloise playing the piano.

He noticed that men approached her from time to time, clearly attracted by Eloise's charm. Eloise, however, always declined politely.

During her break, Eloise received a business card.
