Tangled Temptations

Chapter 149

Harvey was feeling complicated But he was no longer a petulant boy, he couldn't just act impulsively because Eloise was with Callum.

Like, rushing up to them and pulling them apart. Or, impulsively confessing to Eloise, telling her he wanted to marry her.

He had once told Eloise that he couldn't give her what she wanted. He thought that their breakup was just a common thing. Although he still felt something when he saw her afterwards, he didn't feel like he couldn't live without her.

Yet, when he realized that she might belong to someone else, it was a real kick in the gut!

Harvey was going through some major changes, but he wasn't sure what he wanted. If he just wanted Eloise's body, there were women who were more beautiful and had better figures. As for companionship, Harvey was never short of people wanting to hang out with. Because of his family and looks, there were always plenty of people showing him their kindness.

The one and only Eloise, if she couldn't get marriage, she wouldn't hesitate to leave.

Fireworks filled the sky...

Harvey looked up, his eyes full of unspeakable bitterness. The pair that had been embracing had long disappeared into the crowd. Where did they go? The mood was so good tonight, would they head straight to a hotel...

Harvey's heart ached as if it had been stabbed by a knife, making it hard for him to breathe!

...

After the art exhibition, Callum, ever the gentleman, escorted Eloise home. He could tell that Eloise wasn't fully engaged. Though she did have feelings for him, those were based on his external conditions.

Eloise wasn't really into him. But Callum wasn't discouraged, still gracefully escorting her home and setting the next date.

The night was thick. Eloise said goodbye to Callum downstairs of her apartment. The street light stretched their shadows out long. Callum probably liked her a lot, he talked quite a bit. Finally, he laughed and said, "You better get going, or I'll just keep talking."
