Tangled Temptations

Chapter 139

Chapter 130

Eloise angrily kicked him.

"Ouch!" Harvey winced in pain, giving Eloise the perfect chance to grab her suitcase and storm out of the bedroom.

Just as she was about to open the front door, he caught her hand. His gazes were intense as he asked, "Are you really leaving?"

Eloise looked down and didn't respond.

"Let go." she said softly.

Harvey leaned closer, his tone softening, "Someone just delivered some food. Let's eat together."

Eloise knew this was his game. Whenever Harvey wanted to sweet talk a woman, he knew how to use his charm. She fell for his so-called charm time and time again, only to find that it was just his tactic, and she was the only one who took it seriously.

Eloise smiled a self-deprecating smile. "I don't want to eat. There's no need."

Harvey frowned, but he didn't let go. They were at a stalemate.

Suddenly, the doorbell rang. Eloise had a pretty good idea who it was. Who else could it be but Joan?

She said coldly, "Harvey, there are plenty of women who want to have dinner with you. You don't need to hold onto me."

His face darkened even more. He let go of her hand.

Taking a deep breath, Eloise opened the door. Sure enough, Joan was standing there, holding a gift. Seeing the suitcase in Eloise's hand, surprise flashed in her eyes. "Ms. Laurent, I came to apologize. I'm sorry for causing a fight between you and Harvey. I'd hate it if you guys have a fight over me."

Her words made Eloise uncomfortable. Eloise dragged her suitcase and headed towards the elevator, and from behind came Harvey's displeased voice, "Eloise."
