Chapter 127

It wasn't until this very moment that Eloise realized she was the one being

overlooked.

Yeah, just her, Eloise.

Ha!

She'd been so confident before, thinking she was more important to Harvey than Joan. Now, looking back, it was utterly absurd!

How could she have thought that he was taking her seriously?

How could she have imagined that he really wanted to meet her parents?

It was nothing but... self-deception!

Eloise's lips quivered...

She no longer wanted to witness the intimate embraces of the former lovers, each one felt like a cruel blow to her.

Like a bloody massacre.

The awkwardness was at its peak...

Eloise gripped the steering wheel tightly. No matter how bad the weather was or

how dangerous driving was at this moment, all she wanted was to get as far away from this painful place as possible.

But Harvey saw her...

They locked eyes in the rain.

Eloise sat in the car, while he stood in the rain, holding Joan in a passionate embrace.

Time seemed to stand still.

Eloise eyes stung. She no longer looked at him, lowering her head and giving a small smile.

This was so awkward!

She wanted to drive away, but Harvey had already pushed Joan away and was striding towards her, reaching out to pull open the car door.

Eloise locked the car door.

Harvey was pounding on the driver-side window, shouting her name.

"Eloise! Eloise, open the door!"

Eloise rigidly turned her head, meeting his gaze, her eyes full of tears.

She knew she looked a mess right now, so undignified...

But she didn't have the strength to hide it anymore.

Harvey looked into her eyes, somewhat shocked. He knocked on the window again, "Eloise, open the door!"
