He stood in the evening breeze.

Looking down at Max, Harvey snickered, "Regretting now, are we? Only realizing you're head over heels for Eloise after she's with me? Max, it's all been your own doing.

Max wobbled to his feet, his face ashen.

Harvey smirked, "You were the one who let her go. You handed her right over to me."

Max's lips began to tremble, his whole body shaking uncontrollably.

Harvey stared at him, smirking again, "Max, cut the act. You're not worthy of Eloise."

Max glared at Harvey.

Max swallowed hard. He couldn't help but wonder, how many times had they done it tonight?
