Tangled Temptations

Chapter 192

Eloise followed Veronica into the banquet hall.

She was observant and noticed that their table was mostly filled with younger members of the Colman family.

She immediately understood that Riley was truly invested.

Callum's mother came over to distribute candy, and upon seeing Eloise, she courteously exchanged a few words.

Eloise smiled and handed over the gift.

The expression on Callum's mother's face was somewhat subtle when she accepted it. Initially, she had looked down on the girl in front of her, but after Eloise had a fallout with Harvey and declined to enter high society, she couldn't help but see her in a new light.

Although Callum's current marriage wasn't bad, his mother could see that Callum wasn't truly happy.

Tonight, seeing Eloise, she felt a bit wistful.

Eloise wasn't the type to dwell on the past, she just gave a small smile. At that moment, Dwight came over and sat down right next to Eloise, his charming demeanor quite eye-catching.

Half the banquet hall was watching them.

Griffin had some connections with the bride's family, so the entire Lynch family had come and were seated at the table next to them.

Upon seeing Eloise in the spotlight, Joan was not pleased.

Diana whispered, "He's just a chauffeur. Don't let it bother you."

Joan scoffed.

She was constantly comparing herself to Eloise. Before, she was arrogant because she had made a small name for herself in the piano world, but she couldn't break into the mainstream due to her limited talent.

She had seen Eloise play the piano, and her talent made her jealous.

Luckily, Eloise would never be able to be a pianist again.

Ha!

She thought Eloise was so impressive, but all she had done was fall in love with a good-looking chauffeur after experiencing heartbreak. That man's only redeeming quality was his handsome face.

Joan was not worried; she firmly believed Harvey would quickly grow tired of Eloise.

At this moment, Harvey returned.

His status was apparent; he was seated at the main table, surrounded by industry tycoons.
