Tangled Temptations

Chapter 335

In the dim light, Eloise nestled in his embrace. Her cheek rested against his belly. This was a profoundly intimate cuddle. However, she was deeply distressed.

After all they had been through, she had forgotten what it was like to love him. She was immersed in her own world, thinking that if she took up the roles of wife and mother well, they would return to their old times, but she never really moved

on.

Harvey held her all along, patting her gently.

Later, they had dinner. Eloise, worried about their kids, wanted to go home. Harvey turned off the lights, holding her on the couch. Their bodies pressed together, close enough for her to catch the faint smell of tobacco on him.

His voice was husky. "Eloise, let me tell you about the past."

This apartment carried many of their stories. Beautiful or not, he wanted to hear them all.

Eloise leaned against his chest, whispering, "You've read that diary countless times, haven't you? You must know it by heart."

Harvey chuckled lightly. He bowed his head to look at her, his nose touching hers. "Do you know why I fell for you?"

Eloise shook her head lightly. She really didn't know.

Harvey gently caressed her delicate face. His voice was huskier. "Back then, I was in the States, fighting a lawsuit. Before returning, I found out I had a wife. I looked up your info, roughly knowing how we met. But, I couldn't quite accept that I was married... During those days, I thought about how to let you go. But when I returned and saw you at the airport..."

"I didn't intentionally remember your face, but at the airport, I recognized you at first glance."

Eloise asked him why.

He chuckled. His lips barely brushed against hers as he said, "Because you're beautiful. I'm not easily swayed, but when I saw you pregnant, I was sure that if I had a wife, she would look exactly like you."

Eloise always matched his aesthetic sense, both before and after his amnesia.

He admitted he was initially attracted to her physically, which was why they ended up as husband and wife so easily. After all, visual attraction is the first step in any romantic relationship. He didn't shield Eloise from this truth.

He truly fell for her after she signed the divorce papers, after he found her diary and chased her to the cemetery, after she put on the wedding ring. That moment was a huge shock to him...
