Tangled Temptations novel Chapter 132

Eloise was pissed.

She glared at him and raged, "Harvey, where the hell have you been? You reek of Joan. Do I need to give you a scrub? Cleanse your insides while I'm at it?”

"We shouldn't complain about each other." She wrapped her arms around his neck, almost strangling him in anger.

Harvey grabbed her waist. He was mad and actually didn't want to touch her, but couldn't help himself.

He lowered his head, as if to kiss her. "Ms. Laurent, you got some kinky tastes? Wanna clean my insides? Or how about start with my special parts first, what do you say?”

...

As he spoke, he picked Eloise up and headed for the bathroom.

About five minutes later, sounds of a man and woman came from the bathroom.

Gasping, begging…

This wasn’t the first time Harvey and Eloise had been intimate. Eloise was open and cooperative, but after it was over, he lost interest. His body was screaming for release after days of abstinence, but after doing it with her, he had no interest.

Not that it felt bad, it was actually pretty good. Even though it was exciting, it felt different from before.

Something was missing.

Harvey, wearing a bathrobe, leaned against the head of the bed. Eloise came out of the bathroom, realizing he wouldn't take any further action tonight, so she started to get dressed.

Harvey watched her silently. Her eyes were downcast, looking gentle, but he knew this was just her appearance. In reality, she had a fiery temper.

She used to be with Max, and he had never heard of her shouting at Max, and this made Harvey uncomfortable.

Men always cared about their pride.

He lit a cigarette and casually asked, "How long are you going to keep this up?”

Eloise didn't respond.

Harvey flicked the ashes off his cigarette. "You said you wanted to raise funds, right? I'll invest. You can do whatever you want, business or pleasure, I'll get the chef to cook dinner. You can relax and it won't affect our life.”

He spoke softly.

Eloise was somewhat confused. After a while, she chuckled softly, "Harvey, I'm really touched. For you to compromise for me, I should be happy.”

But she liked him. Because she liked him, she couldn't be his puppet anymore. Otherwise, she would despise herself.

Harvey probably didn't realize that all the good things he promised her, everything he gave her, none of them were "Eloise, I like you. I want to be serious with you.”

Nothing. Their relationship was purely physical.

Eloise took a deep breath. She laughed at herself, "I'm not that valuable. Can I be sold a second time after being sold once?”

Harvey's face darkened. He stared at her.

Eloise knew what he was thinking. She didn't respond to his kindness, so it’s like she was ungrateful.

Right, why would he care about the feelings of someone insignificant like her?

All she needed to do was stay at home, waiting for his affection. Eloise didn't want that. She had experienced heartbreak before, and even now, being controlled by Harvey, she still believed that one day, she would meet someone who would cherish her.

Eloise buttoned up her last button. She said calmly, "Attorney Horigan, I'll be leaving first.”

Harvey watched her, "Is it because of Landon? Do you like him?”
