Tangled Temptations

Chapter 222

Chapter 213

Eloise looked pale as death. She was trying to remember; it probably happened one late night when he was in the mood.

She was half asleep at that time, totally unprepared. He probably forgot to be careful.

...

Veronica, holding her belly, came over. Seeing Eloise's expression, she muttered, "What are you going to do?"

Eloise washed up vigorously. She said, "I'm feeling a bit queasy. I'm going to the hospital."

She visited the hospital in the afternoon, got an appointment, and had a blood test. The results came out in half an hour. As she suspected, she was 6 weeks pregnant.

Eloise sat in the long hallway of the hospital, gently stroking her belly. Inside her was a precious gift from herself and Harvey. Despite the surprise, Eloise wanted this baby. Moreover, she wanted to tell Harvey that the baby was theirs;

regardless of their relationship status, she didn't want her baby to grow up without a father or a mother.

Eloise dialed Harvey's number. A few rings later, he picked up, his voice soft. "What's up?"

Eloise's throat tightened. She whispered, "Harvey, I'm pregnant!"

There was silence on the other end. He was probably surprised too, but Harvey quickly recovered. "Wait for me there, I'm on my way."

Eloise hummed in agreement. She hung up and stared at the pregnancy test results for a long time.

Harvey arrived in less than half an hour. As he approached her, he slowed down, his gaze full of pure warmth.

Eloise looked back at him in silence.

After a while, he squatted in front of her and held her hand gently. In the winter, Eloise's hands were a bit cold. He warmed them up before he spoke, his voice hoarse, "Eloise, let's get married!"

Without waiting for Eloise's response, he escorted her out of the hospital. They got in the car, and Eloise turned to him. "I want to go back to the apartment!"

Harvey nodded and gently pressed the gas pedal.

Around Christmas, Peterborough always had a soft snowfall, which added a touch of romance to the sky. He drove slowly, what would usually be a half-hour trip took a full 50 minutes.

Eloise wasn't feeling well, and as soon as they got home, she went to bed.

Harvey stayed. He had Denise bring some files so he could work there, and he also had some food sent over from the Horigan family mansion. He waited patiently and gently for Eloise to wake up.

Eloise slept for a long time. She didn't wake up until nine at night. Harvey heard her stir and came in from outside. In the small, warm apartment, he took off his coat and sat down, looking dashing in his shirt and trousers.

Eloise got up and quietly joined him for dinner. When they were almost finished, she whispered, "If it's a girl, let's name her Linda. I like that name. If it's a boy, let's call him Pete."
