Love Comes To Me
Chapter 143: No investigation

Eloise Thompson didn't expect to replace herself in Paige Coldwell's good graces by mistake and she laughed lightly, "It's an honour to sip tea with Mr Paige and learn about this subject, there's nothing to be impatient about!" "Little girl is quite a good talker, well, this tea has been tasted, let's get down to business next!"

There was a hint of admiration in Paige Coldwell's eyes as she spoke, and it was clear that he liked Eloise Thompson, after all, there aren't many partners who are this sincere.

With some joy in her heart, the two men got down to business and Eloise Thompson talked about what she knew about their product and the general direction of the promotion.

Paige Coldwell is a very capable person in the business, and it was clear from Eloise Thompson's words that she had taken care of the planning and knew everything there was to know about the promotion. After a few words, Paige Coldwell said, "Miss Eloise's idea is a good one, so here's the deal! You go back and draw up a proposal and if you can, we'll sign it."

Eloise Thompson's eyes flashed with surprise, then she smiled and said, "Mr Paige is very quick."

Paige Coldwell had already confirmed Eloise Thompson's character, and as her general promotional direction was good, there was no reason why he couldn't work with her as long as the proposal was well done. After everything had been talked about, the two left the teahouse.

"Thank you Mr Paige, I'll make sure I get the plans done as soon as I get back and we'll see you some other time."

"Hmm." Paige Coldwell nodded and spoke again, "Come on! I'll walk you back."

Eloise Thompson was flattered and said, "I don't dare bother you, my office is quite close by, so I can just go back myself."

Paige Coldwell did not refuse in the end, and after parting with him, Eloise Thompson returned to the company.

Upon arrival at the office, Layla Davidson came over and asked, "How did it go? Have you seen Paige Coldwell?"

Eloise Thompson nodded.

"How did you guys talk?"

"Paige Coldwell has said that as long as the business case passes, the signing is basically a no-brainer."

At that, a look of surprise flashed in Layla Davidson's eyes, she knew that Paige Coldwell was a notoriously fussy and strict person in the business world. Thompson was so easily negotiated. "Amazing Eloise, you have to do a great job with this project!"

Eloise Thompson nodded, "Don't worry Manager Layla, I will."

After talking to Layla Davidson, Eloise Thompson went off to work on the project.

...

At the Rogers Group, Rupert Rogers spoke up happily in his brother's office: "I tell you what, brother! Last night Mum said she'd leave you and your sister-in-law alone, and you have me to thank for that! It's all because I put in a good word in front of you."

Hector Rogers glanced faintly at Rupert Rogers and asked, "Did Ma really say that?"

"That's natural, you still don't believe me! But it should only be so on the surface, but things like going to a private and then to your sister-in-law shouldn't happen anymore!"

In any case, Matriarch Godbold certainly has a bias in his heart against Eloise Thompson's family background and other aspects, which will probably be difficult to defuse over time.

"Brother, if I may say so! You should bring your sister-in-law home more often when you have time, so that our mother can get to know her, and only after spending time with her can she know how good she is, right?"

At these words, Hector Rogers lowered his eyes.

He didn't want to take Eloise Thompson home, but she had to be willing!

The Matriarch Godbold issue was resolved, but Eloise Thompson still had a big problem, and Hector Rogers always knew that it wasn't just Matriarch Godbold, but that Eloise Thompson didn't want to be with him because of what happened back then. It was because of what happened.

What really happened back then?

Rupert Rogers is not stupid and instantly sensed what was on his brother's mind.

"Brother, why don't we go and investigate? If we don't investigate, we don't know what happened to our sister-in-law back then and there's no way to resolve the concerns she has in her heart, right?"

Hector Rogers pursed his lips and spoke directly, "No checking."

Back then, he wanted Eloise Thompson to tell him himself when he was willing.

Rupert Rogers bristled, "Why? My sister-in-law doesn't want to be with you because of what happened back then, are you going to stay like this?"

With that said, Rupert Rogers just felt like he was simply worrying too much and finally spoke up, "Forget it, do what you like! Brother, you have to give me the day off tomorrow, after all the good words I've put in front of Mum for you." Hector Rogers didn't say anything, but it was clear to Rupert Rogers that his brother had allowed it.

Rupert Rogers happily left the office and it wasn't long before Reeva Lawson knocked on the door with a document in her arms.

She looked at the man at her desk with a hint of affection. Reeva Lawson was quite happy to receive the tonic and food sent by Hector Rogers yesterday, and sure enough, this man actually cared about her.

With that thought, Reeva Lawson had the courage to speak up, "Hector, thank you for what you sent yesterday, I've recovered from my illness, shall we have dinner tonight?"

Hector Rogers felt a little guilty for leaving himself alone at the party, and since he had sent for something, he wouldn't have refused to have a meal with himself!

At that, Hector Rogers pursed his lips and said, "I've got a lot of work to do, so I'll do it another time."

Reeva Lawson's expression darkened, a flash of disappointment flashed through her, and finally she could only speak, "All right then! You get on with it, I'm going out." Having said that, Reeva Lawson left the office.

Sitting in her place, Reeva Lawson's face was resigned to the fact that why, at every turn, Hector Rogers had to turn her down, even for a meal.

Reeva Lawson gritted her teeth, how could she ever be that humble, but nay, in this life she only wanted to love this man.

...

On the JS Creative Company side, Eloise Thompson was so busy that she forgot to eat dinner until 7 or 8pm.

All the way until the phone on the desk rang and Hector Rogers' name flashed on the screen, Eloise Thompson picked it up and a familiar voice came from the other side. "At work or at home?"

"Where's the company." Eloise Thompson didn't hold back as she glanced at the time and realised it was after eight o'clock... so late!

Hector Rogers frowned slightly at the company at this hour and asked again, "Haven't you had dinner yet?"

"Well... forgot about it."

With that said, Eloise Thompson couldn't help but feel a little hungry. Hector Rogers on the other side of the room had already hung up the phone and Eloise Thompson didn't think much of it as she glanced at the screen of her phone, she continued to work, intending to go to dinner once this was done.
