"I would only stomp on your feet... Just now Rupert was twisted because of the pain. Are you sure you want to dance with me?"
Eloise almost laughed when she said that. She really doubted whether Rupert threw her out just because he's so scared of being stomped on the feet again.
A smile flashed over Hector's eyes. He then said, "He was stupid. I promise I'll teach you better than him."
Then Hector put his arms around Eloise's waist. He whispered in his low and sexy voice, "Give me your hand."
Eloise's face blushed. She put one hand on his shoulder and held the other hand with him.
"Left foot, then right..."
They were breathing very close to each other. The deep sound made Eloise's ears blush. Goosebumps crawled on his spine...
On the other side, Reeva was watching the two dancing. She seemed upset in her eyes because she couldn't believe that Hector was so patient teaching Eloise to dance.
Reeva finally felt something wrong.
She looked at Rupert and asked, "Miss Thompson and you brother..."
She wondered what was going on between the two. She thought Eloise was just Rupert's plus one. ‘Why is Hector teaching her how to dance?’ There were so many questions going on in Reeva's mind right now.
Rupert played dumb and said with a smile, "Reeva, why are you focusing on my brother while you're dancing with me? Am I really that bad at dancing?"
Rupert said to himself that Eloise and his brother were a perfect match.
Hearing Rupert's jealousy words, Reeva mocked, "You misunderstood me... Of course, you're an excellent dancer!"
She trotted and kept dancing with Rupert, but she couldn't stop looking at Eloise and Hector, and her eyes filled with deep thoughts.
...
Under Hector's careful instruction, Eloise became better and better at it after being stepped on several times. By the end, she had danced with style and could almost dance as good as others.
Rupert would felt it so unfair when he saw this because he had been stepped on his feet so many times when he was teaching.
"You're a natural dancer," Hector said with a smile.
"You taught me well."
Eloise smiled. She found dancing very interesting, and she actually enjoyed it.
...
Robbie and Agnes were standing in the corner. They didn't dare to get closer because they were afraid of being found by Hector. When they saw the two dancing, their face changed.
"Why is Hector teaching Eloise how to dance?"
Robbie said with gloomy eyes. He felt so upset seeing Eloise being so intimate with other men. He had abandoned her, but that still made him uncomfortable.
Agnes looked just as upset as Robbie.
"How could she? That bitch!"
Agnes's eyes were full of thoughts. Eloise was much foxier than she thought. The woman dared to hook up with Rupert and dance with her. That was so shameless.
Just by then, she heard someone around her talking,
"Wow, check this out! The woman dancing with Hector has been replaced! It's no longer Reeva!"
"That's Rupert's plus one, but she and Hector seem to be a perfect match!"
"Yeah, I envy her so much!"
...
Agnes clenched her fingers tightly. She couldn't accept that she was hiding here while Eloise was envied by the crowd.
Hatred surged through Agnes. She would never allow Eloise to find a man better than hers. She wanted Rupert to see Eloise's true colors tonight and let Hector leave her.
Looking at the woman standing in the center of the stage, a haze flashed across Agnes's eyes.
...
Eloise vaguely felt as if someone was staring at her. However, when she looked back, there was nothing behind her. She wondered if it was her illusion.
Eloise was wandering off. She stepped on Hector's toes again.
"Sorry..." She apologized quickly.
