Chapter 186

When Eloise was leaving, she bumped into Harvey at the elevator. He was holding some files and seemed like he wanted to discuss something. Harvey stepped out of the elevator as Eloise stepped in.

Just as the elevator doors were about to close, he stuck his hand out to stop them. He hadn't seen her for a long time and missed her a lot. He wanted to be close to her, but in the end, he just played it cool and asked, "How've you been?"

Eloise leaned against the elevator wall. She looked at him wearily, and after a moment, she replied, "I'm okay."

Harvey's eyes were dark and intense. He spoke in a low voice, "I'll be at the celebration tonight too. Will you... dance with Landon?"

Eloise was obviously taken aback. She hadn't made any plans with Landon. They weren't at that stage yet. But if Landon was there, it would be normal for them to share a dance. So, Eloise didn't deny it.

Harvey's handsome face darkened, but he didn't seem unhappy. Instead, he said tenderly, "Have fun," and then he walked away.

A chill ran down Eloise's spine. She didn't know why, but Harvey, like this, seemed more terrifying than when he was pestering her. His eyes told her he hadn't given up, but he was playing it cool.

Eloise almost didn't want to attend the banquet. But as the award recipient and with her performance today, the city's elites would definitely not let her off. After a few calls pushing her, she had to obediently go.

The banquet was held on the 32nd floor of the Silver Bay Hotel. The place was buzzing, the atmosphere lively. It was a good opportunity to network, and Eloise wasn't going to let her personal feelings get in the way. She mingled with champagne in hand.

Veronica also came over, with Riley in tow, introducing Eloise to some valuable connections. Eloise conducted herself impeccably. She ignored the gaze from the second floor.
