Lovely Baby Came to Me

Reeva walked on stage, looked at everyone, smiled in an elegant and confident manner, then introduced herself, "Hello, my name is Reeva."

All people were watching her, with the young ones full of admiration, and the elders full of appreciation.

Eloise was also looking at her, however, she was in a trance because she felt she was so different from Reeva.

She was like a princess with good looking, well-educated, and had a good family background.

But what about her? She was abandoned by her family and had delivered a child to pay her debt.

Eloise lowered her eyes because she just learned from Rupert that Reeva and Hector knew each other when they were little.

She felt unknown depressed when thinking of this.

She glanced at Hector, who was standing beside her. At first, she thought he was also watching Reeva as the others, however, when she turned around, she met his eyes. Eloise was dumbfounded and hurriedly looked to somewhere else.

After introducing herself, Reeva said a few more words to let everyone have fun and walked down the stage.

With the sound of a mild music, many people began to dance.

Eloise wanted to find a place to have a rest when Rupert said to her, "Let's dance, Ms. Thompson."

"What?" Eloise was a bit surprised and hurriedly refused him, "No. no. I don't know how to dance. Maybe you can find another one to dance with you."

"Don't worry. I will teach you."

After saying that, Rupert hinted his brother and without Eloise could refuse him, he pulled her to the dance floor.

"No, Rupert..."

Eloise didn't know what to say about his behavior. How could he just force her to dance with him? She knew nothing about dancing!

At this time, Reeva also invited Hector, "Hector, how about being my dance partner?"

Reeva asked him with forward and admiration.

Hector frowned and wanted to refuse her. However, when he saw Eloise and Rupert, who were dancing in the center of the dance floor, he squeezed his eyes and accepted her invitation. Reeva felt delighted because she previously thought Hector would refuse her.

They went to the dance floor. Reeva had studied various of dances to keep fit and every step she took was elegant.

She and Hector were so glamorous that people around them seemed to be the supporting roles.

"Wow, Hector is so handsome and Reeva also looks so pretty. They are a perfect match!"

"It's the first time that I see Hector dance with someone during the banquet. He has refused many girls before."

"Maybe he has a crush on Reeva. That's why he hasn't found any girlfriends for so many years."

Patriarch smiled when seeing this. It seemed that Hector liked his granddaughter. He just lacked of a chance to be with her and tonight might be that good chance.

Patriarch squinted his eyes and was thinking about something.

Reeva lowered her head and was flushed when hearing someone said Hector had a crush on her. She glanced at him and smiled, "Well, it's been so many years and you're still good at dancing." Reeva had danced with him on her eighteen's birthday. She was the one who invited him. Because it was difficult for Hector to refuse her at that time, he could only agree with her.

Hearing her words, Hector temporized,

"Yes, you're also good."

Reeva was so pleased when hearing his complement. She didn't dare see his eyes because of shyness and didn't find Hector, on the other hand, was looking at another girl in the dance floor... Eloise knew nothing about dancing.

When she was in the Thompson family, her mother stopped her from attending any banquet deliberately because she didn't want her to get in touch with people from upper class. After she left her family, due to her job and her mother's illness, she got no chance to learn about ballroom dancing.

Rupert also felt a little surprised. He thought she told a lie by saying she knew nothing about dancing, but now it seemed that she was telling the truth.

"Well, Rupert, I think it's hard for you to teach me in such a short time. Maybe you can go to find another partner."

"No, you're my partner. How can I go to dance with the others?" Rupert smiled and continued, "Don't worry! It's pretty easy. I'm sure you can learn this." Then, he began to teach her.

Eloise could only follow his instruction and did what he said. However, because it was her first time of dancing, she usually stepped on Rupert's feet accidentally. Rupert had to hold his voice and didn't make any sound, but it really hurt when high-heels stepped on his feet.

However, Eloise was his brother's girlfriend and he didn't dare say anything.

Eloise was awkward, "Maybe you don't have to teach me. I'm afraid it's hard for you to walk if you keep on teaching me..."

Rupert was also in a dilemma. He planned to let his brother dance with her at first.

But he never expected that Eloise was really bad at dancing.

He had sacrificed too much for their happiness.

He gritted his teeth against the pain and answered, "Never mind."

Eloise felt sorry when saying his look. Why was he so stubborn? It could be seen that he was painful...

However, because he insisted on keep teaching her, she could only dance carefully and tried not to step on him. When Rupert held her to turn around, Eloise felt she was pulled away in the next second. She was surprised and didn't know how to react.

She knocked on someone's chest when she came to her mind.

It was a familiar smell.

Eloise looked up and met Hector's eyes. He held her wrist and asked in a low voice, "Are you alright?"

Eloise was stupefied for two seconds, then she shook her head and answered, "I'm fine."

She also noticed that Reeva became Rupert's dancing partner at a short distance.

Reeva also looked at them in surprise. It could be seen that she didn't expect this either. Eloise didn't know what to say.

Rupert...he was doing this on purpose.

At this time, a familiar sound came.

"Keep dancing, I can teach you."

Eloise was embarrassed when hearing this.
