Chapter 161

Once Eloise finished her words, she started crying.

She once had a thing for Harvey, maybe she still does now.

Even though he had a lot of flaws - a bad temper, introverted, and he was high maintenance - but Eloise knew in her heart.

She liked him!

But no matter how much she liked him, she had to protect herself first.

She didn't want to get herself into trouble!

Harvey's warm fingers gently wiped her tears, but the gentler he was, the harder Eloise cried... until she almost couldn't control herself.

He simply pulled her into his arms and lit a cigarette.

Harvey leaned on the couch, slowly smoking. His handsome looks were a real catch.

Any woman could fall for him.

Eloise didn't speak, just leaned in his arms and cried silently.

Her tears soaked his shirt, the damp warmth was actually a bit uncomfortable, but Harvey didn't stop her.

He smoked half of his cigarette before he softly asked, "Can we give it another shot?"

"We can take it slow this time, and I don't do anything you don't want to do. I just want you to feel comfortable!"

Eloise didn't respond.

Harvey knew what he meant to her.

He was actually very busy, he didn't have a girlfriend before Eloise showed up, so he wasn't desperate.

But when a woman he liked was at home every day and he did nothing, then he must be a fool, right?

Harvey probably guessed Eloise's thoughts. He saw her going on dates with Callum, going to art exhibitions, watching fireworks... Harvey didn't fancy these things.

He thought only kids would do such things.

But he was very grateful that Eloise only dated Callum for 10 days.

If it were Landon, it might be different.

Landon understood Eloise's mind, he naturally knew how to coax her.

"Tomorrow... shall we go to a concert?"

Eloise didn't want to.
