Chapter 78 Are You Brainless?
Later in the day, when the doorbell rang, Eloise was sitting in front of the mirror doing her skincare after she had taken a shower.
Eloise paused, wondering who it could be at this late hour?
Feeling confused, she got up, opened the door, and saw Hector standing in the doorway. As he was wearing a black suit, looking very formal in his dress, he must have just attended a party.
Eloise was surprised, so she asked, "Why do you come to see me at this late hour?"
As Eloise spoke, she brought him in, poured him a glass of water, and asked him again. "What's the matter?"
Hector sat down on the sofa, compressed his lips, and looked at the woman in front of him.
Eloise seemed to have just taken a shower, as she was wearing a nightgown, her wet hair hanging behind her, and the faint scent of shower gel she was carrying filling the air. Her skin was white and smooth, while her clear eyes were looking at him quizzically.
Whether it was because he had been drinking at the party or something else, Hector suddenly felt his mouth dry as he seemed to be aroused. His eyes flickered, while he compressed his lips as he spoke. "I've come to tell you something, and it's about you, so I thought you ought to know."
Hector wanted to keep it a secret from Eloise because he didn't want her to have to remember the terrible thing.
But it was Agnes who was behind the whole thing, so it had something to do with the Thompson family...
Eloise looked down, as she had guessed what he wanted to say to her.
"Is it about what happened last night?"
Hector nodded. "The waitress didn't just walk by, as she had been paid off because Agnes had made her do that, and Agnes and Robbie were at the party last night."
After hearing this, Eloise's eyes turned cold and she clenched her fists in anger.
It's the Tompson Family again.
Why wouldn't Agnes let her go after all these years?
To make Hector hate her, Agnes even paid someone to rape her. How vicious was Agnes?...
Eloise's eyes darkened, and when she had calmed down, she spoke, "Hector, thank you for helping me find out the truth."
Otherwise, she might still be thinking that what had happened yesterday was an accident.
"You're welcome." Hector looked at Eloise, and for a moment he felt sorry that she had come across a family like this, as he didn't know how she had survived all these years. "It will never happen again."
He would never let anyone from the Tompson Family or the Gardner Family hurt her again.
Eloise looked up at Hector, as she didn't know why, but for a moment she had mixed feelings.
She's probably used to having to deal with things all on her own for so many years, so Hector's presence has changed her life.
He really cared about her because he was always there when she needed him most, just like last night.
Eloise's eyes flickered as she didn't know how to treat him.
She could not escape from him if she wanted to.
But if she chose to be with him, would there be a bright future between them?
Hector was here to see Eloise, telling her the truth, so after he had said that, he was ready to leave.
"You go to bed early, and if there's anything I can do for you, you just call me, and I leave first."
"All right." Eloise came to her senses, nodded, and walked Hector to the door. After a pause, she seemed to remember something as she spoke to him again. "You wait a minute since I made some cookies that you can take back to Solomon, and if Solomon is asleep, you can eat them."
As Eloise spoke, she went into the kitchen and handed him a bag of freshly made cookies.
"You only have some cookies for Solomon? Don't you have some cookies for me?" Hector spoke to her, seeming to be a little unhappy, and what he said to her sounded like he was jealous of his son.
Eloise was embarrassed, so she coughed, telling him. "Actually, I've got some cookies for you, too. Now go home, don't keep Solomon waiting, and be careful on your way."
Master Hector's face softened after hearing these words. He looked at Eloise as he spoke to her in a deep and attractive voice. "Good night."
Looking into his deep eyes, Eloise suddenly felt her heart beating faster for no apparent reason.
"Good night."
As soon as Eloise said those words in a hurry, she closed the door.
Eloise couldn't calm down for a long time after she went back to her room, lying in the big bed.
Eloise kept thinking about Hector and the Tompson family, and she suddenly felt a mess.
...
When Hector came home, Solomon was awake, painting on the sofa.
After Solomon saw Hector come home, Solomon's eyes lit up when he caught a glimpse of the cookies in Hector's hand.
"Daddy, is this Auntie Eloise's homemade cookies? You went looking for her? You're not taking me with you?"
Solomon hadn't seen Miss Eloise for two days, so he wasn't happy.
Hector touched his head. "Well, you'll have your cookies tonight, and I'll take you to her tomorrow."
Solomon pursed his lips, but finally, he happily ate the cookies.
The atmosphere in the hall of the Rogers family was very harmonious, but on the Gardner family side, Robbie and Agnes continued to quarrel... After Agnes calmed down in the living room for a while, she went to open the door of the bedroom.
Robbie has just come out of the shower and he still looked terrible.
"Robbie, I know I did something wrong, so will you stop being mad at me?"
Anyway, at this point, Agnes didn't want to get into a fight with Robbie.
Robbie ignored her, looking cold.
When Agnes saw that the man who had always doted on her was now so indifferent to her, she felt a little depressed.
"Robbie, I did something wrong, but
you can't all blame me. Didn't you say that to me? If I can deal with Eloise, we can use her to threaten Hector and his brother, Rupert, so I'm only trying to help you...
After hearing her words, Robbie could no longer hold back his burning anger.
"Agnes, are you brainless? Are you trying to help me? Are you doing this to help me? Do you realize that by doing this you are driving us, the Tompson family and the Gardner family into a corner?"
Robbie threw the towel aside in a fretting way, and it's only then that he realized that Agnes was as stupid as she was brainless. If only he had chosen to be with Eloise, he wouldn't have had so much trouble.
Agnes's eyes were red with sadness as she was yelled at by him, while she looked at the man in front of her plaintively, but Robbie felt even more annoyed.
"Get out. You caused this, so you will have to figure it out yourself."
After Robbie had said that, he told Agnes to leave, locking his bedroom door from the inside.
Looking at the closed door, Agnes stamped her foot in annoyance.
Had she ever been insulted like this? This was all because of Eloise, that bitch!
But out of desperation, Agnes called Josh.
Early the next morning, when Eloise was washing, she heard the doorbell ring.
Eloise frowned slightly, wondering if it was Hector again.
After brushing her teeth in a hurry, Eloise went to open the door and saw Josh, Agnes, and Ela standing in the doorway.☐☐☐☐
