Chapter 143

Harvey didn't give two hoots about behaving in front of the elders.

Eloise was really pissed off! She slowly got up and nodded to Pauline, "Pauline, I got things to do, gotta run."

Pauline looked like she was hit by a bus. What's the deal with her son's love life?

Wasn't he supposed to be wooing the girl? Why were they fighting the minute they met? He's never been like this!

Pauline muttered, "Harvey, why don't you walk Eloise out?"

Eloise cracked a smile, "I drove myself here."

Harvey didn't insist. He put down his cup, a touch of aloofness in his demeanour, "There's a short meeting at the office tomorrow about the Angus Laurent case. I'll give you a heads up!"

"Is the person involved in the case attending, or?"

Eloise didn't want her father to attend for fear of upsetting him. So even though she knew Harvey had other intentions, she had to accept it.

That's exactly what Harvey wanted.

He replied nonchalantly, "I'll be waiting at the office for you."

Eloise dashed off.

As soon as Eloise left, Pauline started nagging, "Harvey, this ain't right! Who chases a girl like this, asking her out at the office?"

Harvey simply smiled. He wouldn't tell his mother about the difficulties he encountered while pursuing Eloise.

He got up gracefully, "I'll walk you home."

His good looks and aristocratic demeanour must have caught the eyes of many young girls.

Pauline felt both proud and sad.

"Harvey, with all the goods you got, how come you're still single!"

Orlena pouted, "He brought it upon himself, didn't he!"
