Tangled Temptations

Chapter 311

In the darkness, Harvey was perched up, watching her from above. Eloise wanted

to move, but he quickly grasped her hand, interlocking their fingers.

The atmosphere was intimate, perfect for a couple's interaction.

Harvey was thinking the same. He burrowed into her neck, his Adam's apple bobbing slightly as he murmured, "Eloise, I have something to say to you."

Eloise hummed in response. Her voice held a hint of fearfulness.

Harvey rolled over, spooning her, allowing her to rest against his chest. They'd been through so much; he knew he could easily have her heart and body if he just kept things from her.

But he was scared, scared to lose.

With a hoarse voice, he confessed to her, "I ran into Monika earlier."

Eloise frowned.

Harvey gently stroked her brow. His deep voice was laced with soothing tones. "She's pregnant. I arranged for her to go to Rossland. I know it will upset you, but I want to give her a chance. Is that okay with you, Eloise?"

He updated her on Livio's situation. Eloise curled up against him and remained silent for a long time. Harvey thought she was reluctant and was about to say something when Eloise softly replied, "Okay."
