Tangled Temptations

Chapter 304

In the heart of the city, stood a row of century-old buildings, exquisite and

extravagant.

To own one of these townhouses was a symbol of status, a popular place for the socialites of Manhattan to host their private parties. These parties were exclusive, not for the average people.

Manhattan's nouveau riche, the Miles family, wanted to befriend the Horigan family. However, Pauline wasn't too keen on socializing, and Parker was too busy with his grandchildren. So, the Miles family set their sights on Eloise.

Despite Eloise's divorce from Harvey, who in Manhattan didn't know that Parker still held her in high esteem?

Eloise returned home to change into a new outfit. A black gown, innocent yet sexy. Her waist was as slender as that of a Hollywood starlet.

She was familiar with most of the people at the party. Unexpectedly, the award- winning actress, Ruby, was also there.

Eloise nodded to her, grabbed a cocktail, and began to socialize with the ladies. She found it quite enjoyable. After her divorce, she had two children to take care of and rarely had time to relax.

Outside the townhouse, a black Rolls-Royce Cullinan was parked, with Harvey leaning against the car, smoking. His black attire blended in with the night.

At midnight, Harvey put out his cigarette and headed towards the townhouse. Knowing who he was, the doorman recognized him and let him in without hesitation.

Inside, it was lavish and bustling, with famous models, countless celebrities, and renowned violinists. The atmosphere was excellent.

Harvey was born into wealth, so he was accustomed to such parties, but that didn't mean he didn't feel a pang of jealousy when he saw Eloise.

She was leaning against a deep red sofa, playing poker with a few people. By her side was the latest heartthrob. The actor that ordinary girls admired was now gently gazing at his ex-wife, almost flatteringly.

Eloise must have been winning, as she leaned back on the sofa and gave a playful smile. The handsome young man handed her a glass of champagne, which Eloise accepted naturally.
