Chapter 120

Harvey took a glance.

Even for him, the person involved, it was hard to explain the situation. And yet, he had indeed let it happen.

Joan had been tailing him every day lately.

He hadn't reacted. But they were ex-lovers, after all.

A woman tailing a man every day...

Well, it spoke volumes.

Harvey just found it amusing.

For a man, this was somewhat of a thrill.

However, he had no intention of getting back together with her, let alone becoming her lover.

Eloise hadn't asked, and he had no plan to explain.

Eloise just came out with a plate of noodles, with Harvey still holding her phone in his hand.

The atmosphere was a bit tense.

Finally, it was Eloise who broke the silence. "Veronica didn't mean any harm; don't be hard on her."

Harvey put down the phone.

He scoffed, a hint of mocking in his voice. "You're always worrying about others; why don't you think about yourself for a change?"

Eloise countered. "Harvey, do you want me to care or not?"

Harvey's breathing became a bit ragged.

He couldn't answer.

Eloise knew they couldn't communicate; she lowered her head and gave a self- deprecating laugh. "Whichever it is, I can put on a show for you."

The atmosphere was oppressive; she switched the topic, saying, "Eat your pizza; I'm going to take a bath."

She had barely taken two steps before her arm was forcefully grabbed.

She turned around and saw that Harvey was frowning.

He didn't feel like eating. He tightly grabbed Eloise's arm, although he wasn't sure what he was trying to hold on to.

He didn't regret it.

He didn't want to give Eloise what she wanted, nor could he, because he didn't want to get married.

Heartache?

Perhaps not much.

He just wasn't used to this version of Eloise. He felt somewhat estranged from this version of her.
