Lovely Baby Came to Me novel Chapter 52

Eloise was wearing a white shirt with jeans, and although she was dressed rather simply she still looked very elegant. Her face was slightly flushed; it seemed that she had been consuming alcohol.

Rupert was looking at Eloise with seemingly complex emotions.

Eloise was looking a little flustered for she couldn’t remember how long it had been since they last met.

And the last time they had met she had proposed that the two of them sever complete contact with each other.

But now the two of them had encountered one another here and Eloise was wondering whether she should say something to him or not.

Still feeling rather awkward, the door of the private room in front of them suddenly opened and Rupert walked out muttering, “Where is my brother? He really has drunk too much, I’m sure he drunk by now, where did he run off to?”

Rupert raised his eyes when he saw both Hector and Eloise.

“Hector here you are, I’ve been searching for you for so long now. You’ve drunk so much, are you alright?”

Hector narrowed his eyes.

Eloise was still feeling a little awkward, and now it was impossible not to greet one another so she stepped forward acting calm as she said, “Mr Rogers, Master Rupert.”

She lowered her head for she didn’t dare to look at the expression on Hector’s face.

Rupert pretended to act surprised, “Miss Thompson, what a coincidence to see you here!”

“Well, our company is having a get together here.”

“Is that so? Has the gathering ended now? Are you getting ready to leave?”

Eloise was taken aback; Rupert seemed to be giving her a chance to get away but then suddenly added, “My brother is quite drunk, so would it be alright if you could look after him for me?”

“What?” Eloise blinked rather confused.

Her, look after him?

No way! Eloise wanted to reject this, for they had already agreed to never come into contact again. But to now have to be alone with one another, this really would be too awkward!

“I still have a client to look after so I can’t really leave their side, so please help me out. You just need to send him home, is that ok?” Rupert said rather hurriedly.

It looked like that he was busy with hundreds million contract in the private rooms, so no time could be wasted.

Eloise curled her lips, did they really come out to socialize without having brought along an assistant or driver?

Hector stood aside and glanced coldly at Rupert who was clearly just putting on an act for actually he was not drunk; he had only drunk a few glasses and just wanted to come out for some air.

Rupert kept twitching his eyes at him as if trying to hint at something.

His brother’s happiness was right in front him, now was not the time for him to be oblivious to what he was hinting. Rupert really was afraid that Hector would end up saying he wasn’t drunk.

He thought for a moment until he finally made a decision to push Hector.

Hector had no time to react and instead staggered and fell forward.

Eloise quickly went to support him and stammered as she asked, “You… are you ok?”

Rupert felt successful knowing he had done the job.

“I’m sorry, but I must leave my brother to your care.”

After he said this, Rupert hurried back into the private room.

Eloise was stunned to the spot, just staring at the person in her arms. Hector was leaning on her, while the heat and alcohol rushed to her face.

Was he really drunk?

Eloise was speechless, however since she knew it would not be good to leave someone in this state here she had no choice but to face him, “Are you able to walk?”

Hector shook his head, pursed his lips together and said plainly, “No, I need you to hold me up.”
