Love Comes To Me -
Chapter 101: Please leave him
After asking for the address, Eloise Thompson spoke to a colleague and left.
It was a restaurant quite close to her work and after arriving at the restaurant and replaceing Matriarch Godbold, Eloise Thompson took a seat opposite her.
Matriarch Godbold was quite polite, and with a faint smile on her face she spoke with a slight apology, "Miss Eloise, I'm so sorry to have asked you out so hastily."
Between the words, Matriarch Godbold looked slightly scowling at the person in front of him and had to say that Eloise Thompson was clean and pretty looking and had a good temperament that made her look comfortable, but ... wanting to be with Hector Rogers was not just about good looks The.
Eloise Thompson didn't really care as she spoke up and asked, "Is there something Auntie wants from me?"
Matriarch Godbold's eyes flashed a tangle before he finally made his intentions clear straight away.
"Miss Eloise, I'll be blunt, I'm here for Hector and Solomon and I hope you can stay away from them."
At these words, Eloise Thompson's eyes flickered slightly, knowing that she had already thought of Matriarch Godbold's intentions, but hearing them in person made her heart ache, and she didn't know what to say.
Matriarch Godbold continued to speak, "Miss Eloise, we in the Rogers family aren't big on matchmaking either, but ... I'm not going to lie, I took the liberty of looking into your family background and you and Hector really aren't fit together." Last night, Matriarch Godbold sent someone to get all of Eloise Thompson's connections to the Thompson familyGardner family and, of course, she found out about the year that Eloise Thompson disappeared.
Fearing that Hector Rogers would be angry if he found out, Matriarch Godbold also did not investigate in detail what happened that year.
But knowing her involvement with the Gardner family, the Thompson family, Matriarch Godbold really didn't approve of Hector Rogers being with such a woman and didn't want Solomon to have any more contact with her. Hector Rogers is the heir to the Rogers family and Eloise Thompson is really not fit to be the wife of the president of this Rogers Group.
"Miss Eloise, I'm really sorry, I shouldn't have investigated your background, but I had to for the sake of Hector and Solomon ...."
With that, she took a cheque out of her purse and handed it over, and continued to speak, "I know your mother is seriously ill, Miss Eloise, and you can call me if you need help in the future, and I hope you don't have to go to Hector again." Matriarch Godbold knew it was unkind of him to say and do so, but people are selfish. Hector Rogers loved her and even put his life on the line for her, Solomon cared for Eloise Thompson, and neither would leave her. Matriarch Godbold has to approach Eloise Thompson and persuade her to leave their lives.
Eloise Thompson looked calm and pushed the money through.
"Auntie, you're overthinking it, Mr Hector and I are just friends, it's not what you think, I know what I am and I don't have the luxury of climbing up the ladder of your Rogers family."
Eloise Thompson smiled faintly, looking a little brave, pursed her lips and spoke again, "Don't worry, I'll keep as much distance from them as possible and I won't tell them about your visit to me today."
At these words, Matriarch Godbold hesitated before finally speaking, "Miss Eloise, thank you and I hope you'll do what you say."
"Well, Auntie, I've got work to do at the office, so I'll leave you to it."
With those words, Eloise Thompson left the restaurant.
As she walked out the door, she couldn't help it, her eyes were red and Eloise Thompson felt bad. She thought about asking Matriarch Godbold to give her a chance to prove that she was worthy of Hector Rogers, but the surrogacy was never hidden from the Rogers family. Matriarch Godbold has investigated herself and will sooner or later replace out about it.
Fighting the urge to burst into tears, Eloise Thompson told herself that it was the best option for anyone.
Matriarch Godbold, still sitting in the dining room, frowned slightly and sighed at the cheque, worrying that Hector Rogers would ignore her as a mother for days if he knew she had approached Eloise Thompson and said those words.
...
Eloise Thompson had found some random food outside and was eating listlessly when the phone on the side rang with a text message from Hector Rogers.
"Off to work? Have you eaten yet?"
Eloise Thompson's eyes lowered as she looked at the words at the top of the screen, her emotions were mixed for a moment, and after a long moment, she turned the phone off and put it aside, Eloise Thompson looked down and continued with what she was starkly staring at.
...
After dinner, Eloise Thompson went straight back to the office and was still a little distracted at work in the afternoon, with Matriarch Godbold's words echoing over and over again.
Layla Davidson came over and spoke inquiringly, "Eloise, what's wrong with you, you've been distracted since you got back from lunch, is something wrong?"
Eloise Thompson snapped back to her senses in a hurry and she shook her head.
"Manager Layla, I'm fine."
She couldn't help but feel a little sorry that she was thinking about these things at work. Eloise Thompson gathered her emotions, found the business case she had made earlier again and handed it to Layla Davidson.
"The previous partnership with Rogers Group has been negotiated, Manager Layla, you're next in line."
"Great, Eloise, I told you this project would go well with you, now it's easier for us to win the USHOW project, I'll give you a bonus later."
Layla Davidson knew that Eloise Thompson would have no problem taking on the project, although it was Rupert who had instructed her to negotiate the partnership.
But at the moment, she couldn't help but marvel at the fact that the big boss had taken time out to meet Eloise Thompson and talk to their small company about working together.
Eloise Thompson smiled and said, "Thank you Manager Layla."
Her mood was at last comforted by the prize money, and Eloise Thompson picked up her spirits and got on with the work at hand.
The afternoon passed quickly and it was time to leave work, but Eloise Thompson stayed in the office to work overtime, she was working on the project USHOW, in fact the planning was basically done now and there was no need to work overtime on this now.
But Eloise Thompson subconsciously didn't want to go back for fear that Solomon would go looking for him.
She had promised Matriarch Godbold only a few hours ago that she would keep her distance from the two of them, so let's try to avoid seeing each other now if we can! With less contact, it's possible that Solomon will forget about her before too long.
But on second thought, Eloise Thompson said, "I don't think so, Fletcher Rogers and Matriarch Godbold wouldn't allow her to get close to Solomon, so they would certainly replace a way to keep him away from her.
And so it was, Eloise Thompson was relieved not to receive any calls, but she was still a little lost.
Is it possible that she may not see Solomon from now on, and that she and Hector Rogers...
Eloise Thompson's heart inexplicably throbs at the thought of it.
She told herself to realize the reality of the situation, and that what had happened before should be treated as a dream!
Eloise Thompson steeled herself and forced herself to stop thinking about these things as she kept her head down and continued with the task at hand.
