Tangled Temptations

Chapter 238

At 6 p.m., Harvey returned home with his wife and daughter. Linda, exhausted from playing, was carried by Harvey, with Eloise gracefully following behind. The employees of Everest Technologies in the lobby were curious. Their CEO looked unusually tender today.

Reaching the parking lot, Harvey placed Linda in her car seat. Standing by the car roof, he assisted Eloise into the car. As she got in, he brushed against her shoulder.

"What's wrong?" Eloise asked, puzzled.

Harvey gazed at her, his voice unexpectedly gentle. "I have to work late tomorrow. Come and keep me company with Linda."

Eloise discerned his intentions. "I'll bring Linda to visit my mom in the morning. We'll come in the afternoon."

Harvey remained silent. She thought he was upset, but to her surprise, he wrapped an arm around her waist and, right at the entrance of Everest Technologies, leaned down to kiss her.

Eloise licked her lips. "Don't kiss me so casually!"

Harvey's gaze deepened. After a while, he chuckled, "Get in the car. I need a smoke."

He never smoked in front of Linda, but now he felt the urge. Eloise didn't object and got into the car first. Harvey lit a cigarette, but after only a few drags, he extinguished it and got into the car. The black Maybach slowly drove away.

In the parking lot, a white BMW housed a stunning woman, Joan. She watched Harvey's car with dark eyes. Eloise was back! And their child seemed so alive and well. The sight of their happy family made Joan's beautiful face contort with envy. Her grip on the steering wheel tightened until her knuckles turned white.
