Tangled Temptations

Chapter 226

Linda nodded, not quite getting it. Children, after all, didn't get the adult affairs. All she knew was that she was going to have a mother soon, and her mood was incredibly buoyant, munching down two servings of spaghetti for dinner.

The household staff were all delighted, "Miss Linda, you did so good today!"

Linda, with her brown curls, negotiated with her father, "If I get to see Eloise every day, I'll eat two servings of spaghetti every day!"

Harvey was seated on the couch, sorting through paperwork. Hearing this, he glanced over, "If you want to see Eloise, figure out a way yourself!"

Linda sniffled. She ran over, cuddling into her father's chest, "Dad, you're useless!"

Harvey didn't respond. He moved aside the documents, hugging Linda, his chin resting on her soft chestnut curls. His voice suddenly grew hoarse, "Dad made her angry! Linda, can you bring mom home?"

Linda lay on his shoulder, a silent confirmation. She muttered, "I want to play the piano!"

Harvey looked around their villa, realizing that he had forgotten to buy a piano. But his little princess wanted to play, so he drove her out to get one.

Half an hour later, a black Maybach was parked below an apartment building. The apartment was just as it had been.

When Harvey missed Eloise and had nowhere to vent, he would come here alone, sitting in the living room quietly and lighting a few cigars until he felt better and had to rush back. He had Linda to look after.

Upon entering, Linda expressed her love for the place.

Harvey said hoarsely, "This is where Eloise and I fell in love, and that's the piano I gave her as a gift. But I made her angry. She didn't want it anymore!"

Linda suddenly felt a little nervous, she looked up and asked, "Will she not want me too?"

Harvey squatted down. He looked at Linda, saying seriously, "She doesn't know about you. She loves you a lot!"
