Chapter 118
Eloise said calmly, "Did you have fun?"
Harvey took off his coat, casually threw it on the couch, and then sauntered over to her.
He picked up a glass of red wine from the bar, his gaze deep.
Eloise usually didn't drink; she lived a pretty orderly life. If she was drinking, that meant she was in a bad mood, and Harvey guessed that he was the reason.
He asked, his voice a little hoarse. "Are you mad?"
Eloise didn't respond. She didn't want to lie, but she didn't want to tell the truth either.
Silence fell.
Harvey let out a small laugh. "Eloise, when we first started dating, we made it clear that we'd get along, and if the feelings weren't there anymore, we'd break up peacefully. What's going on now?"
Eloise looked up at him, asking softly, "Harvey, are you tired of me?"
Harvey knew what Eloise was implying. She wanted to end the relationship.
Was it because of Joan?
Suddenly, Harvey scooped her up and placed her on the piano.
The piano let out a low sound.
Eloise struggled; her emotions were in a frenzy, and Harvey's actions felt like he was toying with her.
She was only wearing a black silk robe, and her struggling gave Harvey a glimpse of her skin.
His throat tightened. He leaned in close to her ear and whispered. "Does Joan's presence bother you that much? Eloise, can't you stand it?"
Eloise was a bit dazed.
Her brows furrowed, and her veins were popping.
But she held back. She looked up at him as her red lips parted slightly. "Harvey, tell me, what would make this bearable?"
She didn't wait for his answer. She wrapped her arms around his neck, kissed him lightly, and even initiated a deep kiss.
Harvey's body shuddered.
