Chapter 258 Eloise, You Still Love Me

Their eyes met, but they didn't say a word.

Eloise didn't expect to run into Kenneth in the hospital.

This scene reminded her of the night when they had their first sex. It also took place in the hospital.

Kenneth was drunk back then. He pinned Eloise down on the sofa and took possession of her wildly.

Evidently, Kenneth also thought of the past.

He had been cautious and thought carefully before taking any action.

However, he didn't have time to consider the consequences of his relationship with Eloise. Being tempted by a girl that was sixteen years younger than him might be the craziest thing he had done in his life.

It wasn't because she was young and good-looking.

Kenneth had met many beautiful women before, and some of them were more beautiful and charming than Eloise. Moreover, they were tactful and considerate.

They were not like Eloise, who hugged him and called him Uncle Ryan.

He was addicted to the way she addressed him.

...

After a long time, Kenneth broke the ice. "Did you come to see Everest?"

Eloise was dazed for a long time before coming back to her senses and nodding. "Yes. She's much better now and will leave the hospital tomorrow."

Kenneth was about to say something...

Kaleb came out of the elevator. He was surprised to see Eloise. He was an experienced professional and quickly regained his composure, greeting her with a faint smile, "Hello, Ms. Clark."

Eloise nodded at him and said to Kenneth, "I gotta go."

Kenneth grabbed her hand and stopped her. "Wait a minute!"

Kaleb took a deep breath and turned his face away.

Eloise intended to shake Kenneth off, but Kenneth's grip was so forceful that she failed to break away from him.

Kenneth said in a subdued voice, "Let's have a talk."

In the end, they went to a quiet coffee shop. Kaleb got them a private room and guarded the door dutifully.

Eloise sat at the table in the private room.

Kenneth dismissed the waiter and made coffee for her.

He had always been waited on by others, but in private, he liked to make coffee and thus was good at it.

After he made the coffee, he put a cup in front of Eloise.

"Have a taste."

Eloise pressed her lips and said, "I don't like coffee."

Kenneth gave an indulgent smile and said gently, "I forgot that you like soda and fried chicken..."

Eloise looked at him quietly.

Kenneth was as refined and elegant as she remembered.

She used to be crazy about him, but she didn't want to do that now.

Eloise said coldly, "Mr. Ryan, did you bring me here only to talk about this?"

Kenneth went to the small fridge and took a bottle of soda for her.

Eloise didn't take it.

He put a straw in the bottle for her and said softly, "Eloise, I have been wondering how you were doing during the past two years."

Eloise's heart skipped a beat.

She raised her head slightly and said calmly, "I was fine. I experienced a different life."

She sounded casual, but Kenneth knew it wouldn't be so simple.

Eloise was spoiled since childhood and didn't know how to take care of herself.

When he was about to ask more questions, Eloise chuckled softly and asked, "Mr. Ryan, what else do you want to know? Do you want to know how poor I was? Do you want me to regret not telling you I was pregnant or not having an abortion?"

Kenneth's handsome face turned pale.

But he remained smiling. "Don't talk like a child."

Eloise lowered her eyes and said, "A child! You always treat me as a child, don't you? Mr. Ryan, how could you have sex with me if you thought I was a child? Did you want to have a change when you were tired of your girlfriends?"

She tried to restrain herself.

"Look, we're so different. You like coffee and chess, while I like soda and chicken. I also like to go to nightclubs. We are in two different worlds... Mr. Ryan, after you said I was not your cup of tea, I didn't pester you. I took your advice and forgot what happened before."

"What do you mean by saying those words to me now?"

...

Kenneth felt a pang in his heart.

After all, he was completely different from her. How could he not know from her words that she hated him?

She should hate him.

They got on well back then and had a sweet and crazy time.

Any woman, naÏve or sophisticated, thought her man would marry her.

Kenneth had thought of it.

But he let Eloise down.

Kenneth reached out to hold her hand, but she moved away.

Eloise calmed down and said, "I'm sorry for losing control. If you want to see Emerson, ask your secretary to contact me. I'll make the arrangement."

Kenneth asked gently, "Can I go to the Clarks' mansion?"

Eloise was startled.

She wanted to refuse, but she couldn't because the Ryan family and the Clark family were in-laws.

Kenneth didn't press her anymore.

When he ran into her, he wanted nothing but to talk to her. He hadn't chatted with people like this for a long time. It was a pure talk without any schemes, a talk between man and woman.
