Chapter 206

They had been in this state for another two weeks. No sparks, no fire.

Harvey would ask Eloise out, and she would rarely say no. She would always accommodate his wishes, but she was always calm and gentle, different from the fiery temperament she once possessed.

In contrast to her calmness, Harvey was becoming more and more dissatisfied. He would rather have her lose her temper at him, even if it meant she might slap him across the face. Wasn't she always so feisty with him in the past?

Finally, he realized that when she loved him, she couldn't help but be cheeky and daring with him. Now that she no longer loved him, she treated him with respect, never offended him, and was ready to pick up and leave with dignity at any time.

To hell with dignity!

Harvey ended up getting drunk at the club. In the private booth, there was the usual crowd, even Max was there.

Riley rarely went out after his marriage. It was only because he heard Harvey was there that he came to keep him company. After all, Harvey and Eloise had done him a big favor with the Veronica situation.

Riley patted him on the shoulder. "How are you feeling? If you need, I can drive you home!"

Harvey, leaning back on the couch, exhaled smoke languidly. He looked

irresistibly sexy. There were some girls in the booth, all stealing glances at him, but none dared to approach him, given his reputation for being standoffish. So, they settled for just admiring.

Riley guessed Harvey's predicament and chuckled. "With looks like yours, who could resist?"

"Cut it out!" Harvey shot him a sidelong glance and spoke in a low voice. "Isn't Eloise one of them? Riley... I've given her everything. Why can't she warm up to me? She used to be so attentive to me, blushing whenever she saw me, even enjoying...sex with me!"

Riley chuckled awkwardly. Women, unlike men, enjoyed sex when they were in love, but it was a struggle when they fell out of it! He didn't want to upset Harvey, so he suggested they leave. "You've had too much to drink. Let me drive you home. You have a court hearing tomorrow, right?"
