Chapter 191: Miss Eloise is really good at drinking
Upon arriving at the booth, one realised that Hector Rogers was also there, and she was accompanied by Reeva Lawson.
"Eloise, it's Mr Hector!" Linn Dail spoke in a whisper in Eloise Thompson's ear.
Eloise Thompson's eyes flickered slightly, not expecting the world to be so small that she could run into two people even when she came to a social function. She tried to calm herself down and walked in as if nothing was wrong.
Reeva Lawson hadn't expected to run into Eloise Thompson on a social occasion, and her eyes sank slightly, probably because the woman's presence had caused Hector Rogers to leave her behind on previous occasions. For a moment, Reeva Lawson couldn't help but be a little worried, but come to think of it, Eloise Thompson and Hector Rogers have now fallen out, so what if they meet up.
"Miss Eloise, what a coincidence! It's a rare occasion that I accompany Hector to a social function and it's such a coincidence that I've met him." Reeva Lawson smiled like nobody's business and stepped forward to say hello. Eloise Thompson smiled back and nodded, her gaze unconsciously going to Hector Rogers, whose eyes were downcast and not looking at her, something sombre under them.
Linn Dail was standing on the sidelines, just feeling a little weird, didn't this Mr Hector like Eloise? Why didn't he even say hello? Have these two really fallen out ...
Eloise Thompson didn't dare to see Hector Rogers again, said hello to the client, Liu, and then talked about the project.
Mr Nodin is indeed, as Linn Dail investigated, a bit of a horny one, and once he saw Eloise Thompson's body and good looks, it was even more of a sight to see.
"Miss Eloise, there's no rush to talk about the project yet, have a couple of drinks!" Said Mr Nodin, pouring Eloise Thompson a glass of wine.
Eloise Thompson frowned slightly and declined, "Sorry, Mr Nodin, I don't drink."
Linn Dail knew that Eloise Thompson was not feeling well enough to drink, so she followed suit and said, "Mr Liu, why don't I drink instead?"
When he had finished, Linn Dail took a drink from the table and drained it.
"That won't do, how can it count if you drink on your behalf! This is Miss Eloise's first time meeting me and she won't even drink a glass of wine, isn't that insincere? Besides, Mr Hector is here, so you're not going to deny him face, are you?" Mr Nodin smiled and poured another glass of wine on the table after he finished.
Eloise Thompson knew there was no way to shrug it off, so she took the glass and drank it down in one go.
Hector Rogers' eyes grew even more sombre beneath his brow at the sight.
If Eloise Thompson had looked at him just now, even once, he would have held her drink for her, but instead she didn't even look at him, as if he didn't exist, and drank the wine straight from the table.
Did she know that she had just had a stomach flu and had been advised by her doctor not to drink?
Eloise Thompson was oblivious to Hector Rogers' sombre gaze and what the man was thinking; she felt her stomach was almost healed and it was only a glass of wine, which should be fine.
Only Liu in front of him wasn't playing around yet, smiling and opening his mouth to compliment, "Cool, Miss Eloise is such a good drinker."
As he spoke, his hand came up and tried to touch Eloise Thompson's waist.
Eloise Thompson stood up unnoticed to avoid it, then spoke faintly, "Excuse me, Mr Nodin, I'm going to the bathroom."
Having said that, Eloise Thompson took the opportunity to slip away, and after turning around, her face turned a little grim.
Eloise Thompson was not expecting such a client, and with Hector Rogers still here, she rubbed her brow, feeling a little irritated that she had to finish the project and get back early.
Mr Nodin looked at the back of Eloise Thompson still somewhat intent, his eyes full of business.
He couldn't stop thinking about Eloise Thompson's body and face, he wanted this woman, he would take his chance later and take her down tonight.
Of course, Mr Nodin could never have imagined that the woman he had his eye on was a Hector Rogers man.
Hector Rogers knew what this Mr Nodin was up to as soon as he saw it, his face hardened, his eyes glowing with anger and his tone clear as day, "Mr Nodin want a drink? May I accompany you?"
On hearing this, Mr Nodin was flattered and rushed to raise his glass to offer Hector Rogers a toast.
Mr Nodin thought that Hector Rogers was probably interested in working with him and introduced himself to these clients.
Mr Liu was so happy that he didn't know what kind of luck he had tonight, first he met a beautiful client and now he was even appreciated by Mr Hector.
But after a few rounds, Mr Nodin had already had more than 20 glasses of various white and red wines, and he felt like his stomach was turning over and he was about to vomit.
Mr Nodin finally sensed something was wrong, Hector Rogers wasn't trying to work with him, he was clearly trying to get drunk, and he was being targeted for that!
Realising that he was being targeted by Hector Rogers, Mr Nodin was in a cold sweat and his heart was on edge as he began to wonder if he had done something wrong, but he couldn't think of anything.
Mr Nodin couldn't figure it out, but it was clear to Reeva Lawson and Linn Dail that Hector Rogers was doing it for Eloise Thompson.
Reeva Lawson clenched her fingers tightly, why was Hector Rogers defending that woman when it was time for him to abandon her with a vengeance?
Reeva Lawson was fuming with jealousy and wanted to tear Eloise Thompson apart, but at the moment at the moment she had to hold back.
On the other hand, Linn Dail was happy that Mr Hector was backing her up and that Eloise wouldn't be afraid of what the client would do to her later.
Mr Nodin really couldn't drink anymore, he felt in his heart that Hector Rogers and Reeva Lawson were a couple, Eloise Thompson only knew Reeva Lawson, but she didn't know Hector Rogers either! After all, the two hadn't even spoken a word.
Mr. Liu naturally could not imagine that the woman he had his eye on was the one on the tip of Hector Rogers' heart, how could he not figure it out he had to ask Hector Rogers himself for advice and spoke with trepidation: "Mr Hector, I can't drink some more...
