Tangled Temptations

Chapter 228

On the other hand, Eloise felt quite agitated. Her intuition telling her that this man, Linda's parent, was harboring inappropriate thoughts towards her.

In an attempt to maintain her distance, Eloise made an excuse to skip out on the PTA meeting. When she called Linda to explain, the little girl sounded utterly disappointed. Even over the phone, Eloise could imagine her despair seeping through every strand of her hair.

The mere thought of it wrenched Eloise's heart. But she couldn't very well tell her, "Your dad is sexually harassing me!"

Feeling down after hanging up, Eloise received a call from Brett. Eloise was surprised, "Brett, you're in Peterborough?"

Brett paused. Well-versed in handling any situation, he quickly replied, "I came to visit your mom and found a renowned expert for her! What? You have a problem with your uncle having some leisure time?"

Brett changed the subject, "You're free tomorrow night, right? Come join me for dinner." Eloise, wanting a change of scenery, agreed.

The next day at eight in the evening, she arrived at the unique private dining restaurant as promised. Only then she realized it was a blind date.

In addition to her uncle Brett, there was a dignified older woman present, and sitting next to her was her son, a strikingly handsome and well-mannered man.

As soon as Brett saw Eloise approaching, he ended his conversation and introduced her with a smile, "This is my niece, Eloise."

Eloise did not want to embarrass him. She smiled and politely greeted everyone as she took her seat.

The other party was Brett's old colleague, well-aware of Eloise's background. They didn't probe further, making the atmosphere quite pleasant.
