Lovely Baby Came to Me novel Chapter 71

It was at this moment that a woman walked by, it was Reeva.

“Hector, I’ve been looking for you for a long time,” Reeve saw Hector first, then only she saw Eloise on the side. She slanted her eyes, seeming that she was surprised, “Miss Thompson, you’re here too? What are you two…”

“Well, Mr Rogers and I happened to meet here coincidentally. We were just chatting and were going to leave!” Eloise explained, but that was indeed the truth.

Hearing this, although there was no change in expression on Reeva’s face, inside she felt that it was more complicated than it seemed.

Did Hector refuse her because of this Eloise before her?

Did he fall for this woman?

This horrible thought appeared in Reeva’s mind, she shook her head, thinking that she might have thought too much.

Reeve smiled and replied, “I see! Well, Hector, Grandpa had asked me to come find you, he wants to introduce some people to you.”

Hector frowned slightly, he had wanted to find Eloise and then send her home, but now…

He wanted to refuse, but at this moment he heard Eloise reply, “Miss Lawson, you two can continue your conversation, I’ll go find Rupert.”

Saying this, Eloise left hurriedly.

“Let’s go, Hector, Grandpa is still waiting!”

Hector stunned, he threw away the cigarette in his hand that was not lit up, and finally he left with Reeva.

On the way, Eloise walked before them, distanced from the two. Reeva looked at her silhouette and smiled, “Miss Thompson is so pretty! She looks very compatible with your brother too, how long have they been dating? When would you arrange their marriage as his brother?”

Hearing this, Hector’s expression darkened, as he replied, “She’s not Rupert’s girlfriend.”

“No?” Reeva stunned and said in pretend, “Then he must still be going after her. Rupert should really put in more effort to not miss such a nice girl like this.”

Reeve felt it clearly, Hector had a great reaction, was he really in love with Eloise?

Glaring at Eloise’s silhouette, Reeva clenched her fingers together. No matter what, this man would only be hers.

Although she was refused tonight, Reeva still believed firmly that he would fall for her in the future.

Just like what Grandpa had said, there was still a long way to go.

Eloise found a seat simply at the ball, she did not know why she had ran away hurriedly just now.

Not far away, Hector held a wine glass, deep in conversation with some persons in the business field. Reeva was standing next to him.

Seeing this scene, the thought that they looked perfect for each other suddenly appeared in Eloise’s mind.

At that moment, her expression became complicated.

After a while, Eloise stood up and found Rupert. She told him, “Rupert, I’m feeling a little tired, I’ll go back first.”

“What?” Rupert had wanted to ask his brother to send Eloise home, since Eloise was dressed up so nicely by him today, who knew if something would happen between the two if they went back together. But by the looks of it his brother was unable to leave, so Rupert replied, “Alright, then wait for me outside, I’ll go get my car.”

“It’s alright, you should stay on! I’ll just hail a cab.” Eloise did not want to trouble him.

“No way, I brought you here, and I have to send you home safely!”

Rupert would not dare to let Eloise leave alone, if anything were to happen, his brother would have beaten him to death.

Eloise did not refuse further. Rupert went first to get his car, so she followed outside as well.

At this moment, Agnes who was in the shadows watching Eloise for a long time saw this, and a dark smile appeared in her eyes. She signalled towards a man not far away.

Upon the orders, the man walked towards Eloise.

Eloise was a little absentminded, in her stance she bumped into the person before her. When she came to her senses, Eloise begun to apologise profusely, “I’m so, so sorry. Are you alright, sir?”

The man looked to be around thirty years old, he looked ordinary, dressed in a white suit. He had a glass of red wine in his hand, because he was bumped into by her, the wine were all splashed upon his clothes. At this moment it looked very obvious.
