Chapter 188

After a while, Harvey's panting slowly subsided. The tension in the car was

palpable. Eloise found herself leaning on his shoulder, with a tear in the corner of her eye. Even though he hadn't done anything overtly wrong, this situation was just not cool!

So, awkward as hell, she asked, "Harvey, can you let go of me?"

Harvey's slender fingers gently stroked her long hair, finally resting on her

shoulder. There was something sort of tender about it.

Eloise didn't move, fearing that any movement would just crank up the embarrassment level.

Once Harvey calmed down, he turned to try and kiss her. Eloise dodged, "I want to get out of the car!"

Harvey softly brushed back her long hair, studying her face, and his mood seemed to lighten a little. "You've got a smudge on your dress. Let me clean it up."

Eloise wanted to say she could do it herself, but she gave in after a glance. Harvey cleaned it up for her. Then he whispered, "Eloise, can't we go back to the way we were?"

Eloise slid over to the passenger seat, her face expressionless as if his earlier affection was a one-man show. She stared out front, her voice cold. "Three's a crowd, Harvey."

He whispered back, "I don't love her."

Eloise let out a bitter laugh. She slowly said, "Harvey, as long as the Horigan family and the Lynch family are connected, you and Joan can't cut ties! Can you really let go of her divorce case?"
