Lovely Baby Came to Me novel Chapter 21

Hector frowned deeper when he heard this and he walked forward to help Eloise who was bending down.

His movement was very gentle and almost made Rupert surprised.

Eloise was also stunned because she did not expect him to react like this.

Hector didn’t change his expression and one of his hands held her shoulder while the other hand patted her waist softly. He said, “You can stand up and say what you want to say, there is no need for you to bend down.”

Suddenly, Eloise forgot to react when she was slightly touched by him. She only felt that there was a sense of numbness at the parts touched by him.

After a while, she got back to the sofa.

Hector was like nothing had happened and sat beside her then said, “What did you mean you can’t make it just now?”

Eloise did not feel panic anymore and said, “I have resigned from Excellent Company...”

“Resigned?”

Hector stared blankly because he was surprised and asked, “Why so sudden?”

Everything was fine this morning and she even looked energetic. Why did things change over the morning?

Eloise took a deep breath and thought that she should not lie then said, “Actually... it is not a resignation. To be honest, I had been fired.”

Hector’s eyes looked deep, showing that he was unpleasant.

Fired?

Why did that company fire her for no reason?

Eloise misunderstood him for being angry because she broke her promise so she was trembling with fear. She said, “I am really sorry, I have disappointed Solomon and you. So, if you want to beat or scold me, I will not resist!”

“I do not have the habit of beating on women.”

Hector seemed to be amused with an imperceptible arc at the corner of his mouth. He said, “There is no need for you to say sorry to me because I think you are not intentional. So, please do not care much about it... About the present, I can’t help you to pass to Solomon. I hope that you can pass to Solomon personally when you meet him the next time.”

Eloise was stunned and said unbelievably, “Can... I? Aren't you angry? Wouldn’t you blame me?”

Hector nodded slightly and said as soft as possible, “Of course not. I think Solomon will be happy when he receives this gift.”

After Eloise heard the words, she was delighted and her eyes were so bright to the extent that it was hard for Hector to look away from it.

Hector looked at it with great interest and he raised the corner of his mouth uncontrollably.

After some time, Eloise left.

As soon as she left, Hector’s smile disappeared and was replaced by endless gloom.

Rupert was terrified when he looked at his brother’s changes. Originally, he would want to claim the credit but he turned into trembling with fear, “Brother, just say anything you want to say, don’t change your attitude so dramatically. I am scared of you.”

Hector glimpsed at him and ordered, “Go and check what has happened.”

“What to check?” Rupert could not react to it until three seconds later, “Oh, investigate why sister-in-law was fired, right? Could it be that there was something hidden in it?”

Hector looked indifferent and said, “We will know after this.”

Rupert did not dare to neglect and changed the way he behaved usually. He said, “Yes. I will go now.”
