Tangled Temptations

Chapter 202

Eloise didn't want to go to his place.

But she had even less inclined to have a candlelit dinner or indulge in romantic gestures with him. It didn't suit them.

She held her mobile, staring at her office desk.

Finally, she muttered, "Alright, I'll be off work in half an hour."

Eloise hung up the phone.

She pulled out several thick folders, all packed into her briefcase, still feeling not enough so she added some more.

Stepping out of the office building, Harvey's car was already there.

Lately, he always drove a black Maybach.

Seeing Eloise coming, he got out of the car and opened the passenger door for her. His eyes swept over her hand, his smile seeming like a tease, "Working so hard on the weekend? You have no personal life at all."

His tone always carried a hint of mockery.

Eloise pretended not to notice. She got in the car and buckled her seatbelt, then turned to him and said, "Things have been pretty busy lately. By the way, Veronica and Gunner are getting a divorce, thank you."

Harvey clearly didn't want to talk about that couple. He looked ahead and said, "Let's go to your apartment and pick up Milo. That pup is probably bored to death."

Eloise didn't object.

He drove to her apartment, and Eloise went upstairs to get Milo.

Once Milo got in the car, he barked at Harvey a couple of times.

Harvey didn't take the bait, only said, "Why does he always dislike me? I was the one who brought him home."

Eloise patted the dog's head, "Perhaps because you're both males, and alike."

She said with a slight smile.

Harvey's gaze darkened.

It had been a long time since Eloise had smiled like this in front of him. Her gentle smile was as beautiful to him as the melting of the first snow.

He couldn't help but want to kiss her.

Eloise probably noticed that. She reined in her smile, quietly staring ahead.

Harvey gave a light chuckle, lightly stepping on the accelerator, heading towards the villa.
