Lovely Baby Came to Me novel Chapter 10

The next morning.

Eloise saw the cute Solomon next to her the moment she opened her eyes.

He was snuggling up to her and was sleeping deeply. His long lashes looked like feathers and his cheeks looked so squishy.

Eloise was delighted.

She had seen a fair share of children in the past 5 years, but she had never met a child like Solomon that made her feel so affectionate. She liked him so much she didn’t want to let him go.

Eloise laughed at her silly thoughts and speculated that the Rogers family would probably give her a hard time if she didn’t let Solomon go.

With random thoughts in her head, she tiptoed and went out to make breakfast.

To her surprise, Hector was already awake when she got to the living room. There was also breakfast on the table.

There was rice porridge accompanied by Cantonese and Western tidbits. It was way too luxurious.

Eloise was amazed, “What are…”

“I drove to the town and got something as there weren’t any shops nearby. I don’t know what you like and hence I got a little of everything.”

Hector said plainly, his voice was deep and magnetic resonating like a cello. He also sounded a bit carefree which mesmerized Eloise even more.

His voice was pleasant to hear. She responded with excitement, “You are too kind. I’m not picky, I eat just about everything.”

But she also muttered under her breath.

The great Mr. Rogers bought her breakfast! If words were to get out, countless of women would be green in envy!

As if it was no big deal, Hector said, “Really? Good to know. Go freshen up, I’ll go get Solomon.”

Eloise nodded ambiguously and went to the bathroom.

She got out after 15 minutes and Solomon was already in the living room. He was snuggling in his dad's arms, not wanting to wake up.

Hector was patiently waking him up, even though he had a stern look on his face.

Eloise was captivated by them. She wondered who Solomon’s mother was. The mother had to be blessed, giving birth to such a cute child.

She also wondered why the mother wasn’t in the picture.

Was it because of the Rogers family, or was there another reason behind it?

Eloise was lost in her thoughts. Solomon noticed her presence and abruptly leapt away from his father and ran towards Eloise.

Eloise carried him and asked happily, “Did you sleep well?”

“Yes,” answered Solomon while he smiled and put his arms around her neck.

Eloise ruffled his hair and said, “Let’s eat.”

“Okay.”

Solomon answered cutely. His eyes were shining, and he was enjoying the food. In a blink of an eye, his porridge was all gone.

Hector sat next to him and had a complicated look in his eyes.

Back at home during mealtime, the whole family had to coax Solomon into eating and their efforts were fruitless most of the time.

Now Solomon was the most obedient child in the whole wide world!

After breakfast, Eloise cleaned up and was getting ready to go to work.

Hector drove her and dropped her somewhere nearby the office since it was on his way.

As Eloise was about to get out of the car, Solomon hugged her thighs and wasn’t letting her go.

Eloise was dumbfounded, “Solomon my dear, I need to go to work and cannot play with you today. Be a good boy and go with your dad.”

Tears welled up in Solomon’s eyes and he stared at Eloise as if he was pleading “I don’t want to be apart from Miss Eloise”.
