Tangled Temptations

Chapter 140

Harvey watched her.

Eloise was clearly drunk, her eyes filled with obvious pain.

His heart ached as if it had been punched. Did she care for him that much? Was that why she was in such pain?

Harvey gently traced her lips, his voice full of tenderness, "Can't we make up, just like before?"

Eloise lowered her eyelids, her long lashes trembling incessantly. "Harvey, I don't need you."

Harvey's grip tightened, his knuckles turning white. Suddenly, he unbuckled her seatbelt, got out of the car, and picked her up.

The night wind blew.

Eloise sobered up slightly, realizing that he had driven her to his apartment. "Harvey, I want to go home."

She began to struggle in his arms, her long, slender legs kicking randomly, oblivious to the fact that she might hurt him. Harvey grunted, as if she had hit a sensitive spot.

Not even waiting until they reached the building, he pressed her against the wall in front of the elevator.

Their bodies were close together. Even though Eloise was drunk, she didn't dare to move. She knew that men were easily aroused at such times. She glared at him, "Harvey, are you trying to force me?"

Harvey didn't know how to handle the situation. He had never seen such a difficult-to-soothe girl.

These days, he had considered giving up. But he had tasted her sweetness.

He wanted to let go, but he couldn't.

"How could I bear to let you go?" His nose brushed her cheek lightly, his body pressing closer to hers, skillfully teasing her.

He knew exactly what kind of teasing she liked.

Eloise was both embarrassed and angry. She turned her head, "Mr. Horigan, you should behave yourself."

Harvey looked at her profile, her skin glowing with a bit of blush, her eyes moist and bright. He hadn't seen her in a few days, and only now did he realize how much he had missed her.
