Tangled Temptations

Chapter 160

Eloise was deeply touched.

After graduation, Vanessa had given her a lot of help. Vanessa was a great mentor and friend in her life.

Looking at Vanessa's retreating figure, Eloise felt a sense of unease.

She thought for a moment, then went to the front desk.

"Can you check Ms. Vanessa's recent attendance for me?"

The receptionist agreed with a smile.

In less than five minutes, the record was out. It showed that Vanessa had been taking a day off every three days in the past half month.

Eloise's unease deepened.

But since Vanessa hadn't said anything, it felt wrong to pry into her private affairs. So, at work, Eloise took on more tasks...

After work, Harvey called Eloise.

Eloise understood what he meant and quietly said "okay" into her phone.

Eloise went downstairs and got into the car.

She looked down at her red wool dress, covered with a thin white coat.

No matter how you looked at it, it seemed meticulously prepared.

She blushed a bit.

What was the difference between this and serving herself up to him on a silver platter?

She didn't dare to think about it, so she stepped on the gas and drove off.

When she arrived at Harvey's apartment, Eloise thought he'd be eager, but it turned out he was really busy.

The suitcase was in the living room, but Harvey was in the study. He was on the phone, seemingly discussing a new case.

He looked at Eloise with a deep gaze, but his tone was severe with the person on the other end. He didn't hold back at all.

Eloise felt a bit troubled.

This side of him was completely different from the Harvey she spoke to on the phone last night.

She felt confused.

Harvey covered the phone and softly said to her, "The housekeeper has bought some ingredients. Cook something simple. I haven't had lunch yet."

Eloise silently headed towards the kitchen.

Harvey watched her retreating figure, his gaze deep.

Eloise hadn't been here for a long time. When she opened the fridge, the food inside had been replaced.
