Tangled Temptations

Chapter 135

After Eloise finished speaking, she gently rubbed her chest.

It hurt. It really, really hurt. She never thought her relationship with Harvey would

end this way.

Harvey was staring at her. His gaze was heavy, at least Eloise had never seen him like this. She even felt that he might slap her in the next second.

But he didn't.

Instead of getting violent, Harvey started laughing, "I remember you gave Orlena a gift symbolizing safety and protection, and now you're after her life?"

Eloise laughed. She looked at Harvey, "Attorney Horigan, if you could be a little more tolerant, we can coexist peacefully."

Harvey's Adam's apple bobbed. He also started laughing, "Eloise, you're pretty tough. No wonder Max and Landon both like you."

He gently pinched her sharp chin. Leaning in, his tone carrying a hint of danger, "I didn't realize you were full of thorns. I really want to pull them all out."

Eloise's eyes were moist, her nose reddened. She knew Harvey had compromised.

Her body suddenly relaxed, but the hidden pain was even more unbearable. She only knew her stomach hurt, not knowing exactly where.

Eloise was pale. Struggling, she mumbled, "See you around, Attorney Horigan."

It was over between her and Harvey.

Harvey got up neatly, and indeed, it seemed that way.

On the table was Angus's evidence, which he left for her. As Harvey reached the door, he hesitated for a moment before turning back. He'd always been ruthless in his actions, rarely this indecisive. But he wanted to ask her again, was she really unwilling to stay by his side and follow his arrangements.

As soon as he turned around, he saw Eloise collapsed next to the table, her slender body curled up, her small face drained of color.
