Lovely Baby Came to Me

Hearing Rupert's words, Eloise showed her gratitude to Hector again, "Thank you". Rupert smiled, "No worriers."

"Yes, we are so close, don't make yourself a stranger."

Hearing this, Eloise's lips twitched slightly.

Eloise frowned slightly as she rethought about what Rupert had just said.

"You mean the waiter saw me come into the room with that man?"

Rupert nodded and said, "Well, yes, Eloise, how could you be so careless to enter that man's room?"

Hector and Rupert, sure enough, believed that Eloise would not initiate a flirt. There must be a reason for that. Eloise told the truth.

Her words made Rupert reckoned that man was a scam.

"Eloise, next time you should be more vigilant about stranger guy. If the waitress doesn't see you, you'll be in trouble".

Eloise frowned slightly, "I remember there was no one at the door and that maid...".

How come they had been saw by other people? Was she too careless to neglect it?

There was not anyone in the corridor, Eloise did remember.

Hector and Rupert realized that that guy may had been instructed by someone else. That waiter was part of the plan, someone wanted to hurt Eloise in the hotel room, but he wasn't expected that Eloise would fight against so hard until they had arrived. Who would hated Eloise so bad? This scheme threated Eloise life and made a huge damage on her reputation as well.

Hector's face turned darker. He pressed his lips and said, "Don't worry, we'll handle it, you need to eat some food".

He didn't want Eloise to recur this misery again.

As for those who hurt her, he won't spare them.

Eloise nodded. She was hungry after a long night.

Rupert saw this and said, "Eloise, take a rest. I'm leaving."

He had already disturbed them before, and could not interfere them once again. Rupert walked away then.

...

Hector was still by her side, probably affected by the pills, Eloise made a yawning sound after the dinner.

Eloise looked at Hector and said, "You can go now. You don't have to stay here with me. It's not good to leave Solomon at home alone."

Although he was still trapped by the aftermath, he had accompanied her for a whole night. Besides, there was only one bed in this room, where could Hector sleep on?

Hector pressed his lips and said, "Solomon had backed at his grandparents' house. Don't worry, just go and get some sleep, I'll be here."

His voice was so irresistible, just as Eloise was not allowed to refuse.

There was no way that Hector would leave her alone after all this.

Eloise was pursing her lips and couldn't figure out a reason to persuade him to leave.

She had no choice but to get some sleep, she must be super exhausted, laying on the bed and falling asleep in a short time. The room was in silence, and Hector stayed by her side quietly.

At that moment, the phone rang and Reeva's name appeared on the phone screen.

As Hector stepped out of the room to answer the phone, Reeva 's voice caught his attention.

"Hector, how's Eloise now?"

"She's better now."

"Is that so? Glad to hear that." Reeva's voice sounded so tender and soft, not even a slight mood in it at all.

Just then she heard something came from the other side of the corridor.

"Doctor, doctor..."

Reeva's hand was shanking as she held the phone. "Are you still in the hospital"?

It's already early in the morning...

"Yes", Hector answered in a low voice, and then continued his word, " Please send my apologies to your grandpa for leaving without saying goodbye to him."

"It's alright, Grandpa won't blame you."

"Good, talk to you next time then."

With that, Hector hung up the phone.

Reeva stunned on the balcony, her soft eyes turned bleak and cold in suddenly.

She was holding the phone even tighter than before. Even now, Hector treated her with coldness rather than the way he treated Eloise.

She had been completely ignored by him, and even she's the one who initiated the phone call, Hector didn't even ask if he had been scared too... He didn't even show a single caring word to her. Reeva went back to the living room in a daze.

The Lawsons had just come back, and they were all sitting on the sofa. Patriarch Lawson looked a little pale. He asked, "Who is that woman?"

The woman was referring to Eloise, of course.

Tonight's events had been contained though, it was their family gathering after all, so no matter what happened, they knew exactly what the details was.

Patriarch, who always thought Eloise was just a random girl which Rupert choose to play with, but now it seemed that there was some special chemistry between them.

Reeva was staring at the floor and looked so disappointed.

"I don't know yet, but I've already sent someone to check it, there should be news soon."

Reeva was more curious than anyone about who Eloise was at this moment and how she hooked up with Hector, and why Hector cared so much about her.

Reeva's parents were sitting by her side, showing their worried look and began to warning her, "Reeva, you know that you have to try your best to win Hector's heart, otherwise, you will lose him."

Hector had rejected Patriarch's proposal of unite by the marriage directly, and if his heart be occupied by another girl, there was nothing they could do to stop him.

Patriarch continued, "That's true, Reeva, don't disappointed me."

Although the Lawsons was a prominent family, it was not as prosperous and rich as it looked like.

Patriarch Lawson's prosperous time had ended and Tristan's health condition was not that good, suffered from illness all the time. As for the rest of the relatives, they were indifferent and there was nothing they can really count on them. How stable the Lawsons family looked like, how desperate it was behind the surface.

The Lawsons had been raised Reeva at her early age and they placed all their hopes on her. As long as she could marry Hector, she would be able to take over the family business in the future.

Reeva nodded, knowing that how much her parents expected of her. She couldn't give up Hector so easily.

...

The next day, at the hospital.

Eloise woke up early and she glanced at the inpatient ward. There on the couch, it was Hector who was sleeping, his handsome face and the charming long and fitness legs was showed there perfectly. Eloise was staring at him for a while, she then picked up the blanket and gently put it on him. Her eyes turned softer while she looked at Hector's face.

At that moment, Hector was awake, they looked into each other's eyes, and Eloise looked away for free from the embarrassing situation.
