Tangled Temptations novel Chapter 232

Linda was feeling quite down.

However, with both her mom and dad dropping her off at preschool, her spirits were soon lifted.

Harvey drove the car himself.

In the backseat, Eloise gently fastened the safety belt around Linda, and her hand was inadvertently brushing the little girl's head. It was as if her gaze was glued to their daughter.

Linda was exceptionally proud. According to her, she was the kind of baby that everyone loved at first sight.

On the way, she pointed out with her little chubby fingers, talking about her friends at the kindergarten. Her favorite friend was Luca!

Eloise listened attentively. As a first-time mom, she was completely smitten by their daughter, unintentionally neglecting her ex-husband.

With his wife and daughter in the car, Harvey concentrated on driving. Only at red lights would he glance at Eloise in the rear-view mirror.

Today, she had her hair tied up in a loose bun. Her side profile was gentle and beautiful when she looked down. Coupled with her delicate neck, she looked particularly captivating.

Harvey watched her intently. When Eloise happened to look up and catch his gaze in the rear-view mirror, she could see the look of a man admiring a woman. Her face turned somewhat red, and she was slightly irritated. Harvey offered a soft chuckle, carrying a hint of lust.

The light turned green, and he gently pressed the accelerator. Half an hour later, they arrived at a high-end private kindergarten.

Harvey got out of the car, walked around, and opened the back door. His gaze fell on Eloise, filled with tenderness.

Eloise ignored his presence, unbuckled Linda's seatbelt, and lifted her out of the car.

Linda was particularly lively today. She held Eloise's hand and walked to her class line. Eloise watched her little one and waved, and Linda raised her little face and said, "This is my mom!"

She wasn't afraid of anyone doubting her. After all, her mom also had brown hair. Let them be jealous!

The kids around were indeed quite envious. Linda's mom was so pretty!

Her teacher, Ms. Alexia, came over and took Linda's hand. Linda couldn't resist but repeated, "Ms. Alexia, this is my mom!"

Ms. Alexia, who was in her forties, was very loving. She knew children's minds well, so she gently patted Linda's head and said, "Your mom is very beautiful!"

Linda's vanity was satisfied. She decided to eat two bowls of cereal for breakfast today!

Being a parent for the first time, Eloise took it very seriously. She politely discussed Linda's case with Ms. Alexia. She didn't even notice when Harvey walked up to them, let alone his hand resting on her waist.

Ms. Alexia was quite surprised. The records showed that Linda's parents were divorced, but they seemed very affectionate now.

Harvey chuckled. "Linda's mom was working abroad previously. From now on, you can discuss Linda's situation with her. Her number is..."

Eloise was taken aback.

Ms. Alexia quickly noted down the number. Mr. Horigan was a major donor of this private kindergarten. If he said Eloise was working abroad, then she was!

Linda, holding Ms. Alexia's hand, proudly said, "My mom's name is Eloise!"

Ms. Alexia lovingly patted her head.

Eloise, not wanting to disrupt the order, quickly waved goodbye to Linda. Linda, with her backpack swaying, had the happiest day in kindergarten.
