Chapter 295

After a moment, Harvey finally croaked, "I'll go get it." It was generally seen as unseemly for a woman to buy such a thing.

He was willing to run the errand, and Eloise didn't refuse. After all, he had been quite demanding earlier, and she was indeed feeling weak in the knees.

Half an hour later, Harvey returned with the medicine.

Eloise was in the bedroom. She popped a pill out of its blister pack, and swallowed it down with tap water, grimacing at the unpleasant sensation.

After taking the medicine, she looked at him and said, "You can leave now."

Men were all the same, feeling docile and amiable after a physical release. Eloise shooed him away, and he didn't seem to mind. Instead, he squatted next to her, murmuring, "You're so delicate taking a pill, sure didn't seem like that earlier."

Eloise frowned. "Harvey, this is ridiculous."

Harvey knew she was bothered by Monika, so he reassured her in a low voice, "I don't bother with her anymore."

"Really?"

"What about the $200,000? Can Attorney Horigan explain that?"

She knew.?

Harvey immediately thought of Denise; she must have tipped her off. He gently stroked Eloise's chestnut hair, his voice a throaty rasp, "Eloise, always leave room for negotiation. I have no intentions towards her, trust me... okay?"

Eloise gave a small smile.

Even after everything, they parted on bad terms. Harvey still refused to divorce. He became more attentive, treating his wife and child with immense care and consideration.

He knew, Eloise had already found a new house. All she was waiting for was his signature on the divorce papers.

In the following half a month, he had no opportunity to be intimate with her. Even when Eloise came home, she would sleep with Linda.

Linda started seeing a psychologist again, and Eloise became even more distant. Half a month later.

At Prestige Legal Advisors, Harvey closed the file, telling Denise, "Book two tickets to Rossland. We're going on a business trip for a week."

Denise nodded. "Alright, Attorney Horigan."
