Love Comes To Me -
Chapter 147: Not as well mixed as son
This way, that evening, after dropping Eloise Thompson back off, Hector Rogers drove home.
Eloise Thompson was in a good mood, and after a shower she caught a glimpse of the clothes that Hector Rogers had bought on the sofa, which Eloise Thompson subconsciously changed into.
The smile in Eloise Thompson's eyes deepened as she looked at herself in the mirror and thought of Hector Rogers in her mind.
At that moment, the phone on the table rang and it was a text message from Hector Rogers.
"I'm home and Solomon loves your dress."
Seeing this, the corner of Eloise Thompson's mouth ticked.
"It's good that Solomon likes it, let him go to bed early and you too."
"Well, good night."
Good night, Eloise Thompson said quietly in her mind.
Turning her phone off, she changed into a nightgown and lay down in bed, the day's scenes still echoing in Eloise Thompson's mind.
The painting Solomon had given herself still hangs on the wall, and Eloise Thompson's face turns tender as she remembers the little man wearing the clothes she gave him.
She vaguely felt as if she couldn't stay away from the father and son, every gesture and word from Hector Rogers tugged at her nerves, and the complex emotions of fear of falling deeper and deeper but wanting to be close to him came back to her.
...
At this point in the Rogers family, Solomon tried on all five outfits that Eloise Thompson had bought, and the little guy couldn't have been happier.
"Daddy, is it true that Auntie Eloise bought this? Did she pick it out for Solomon herself?"
This is the third time Solomon has asked this question since his return, and Hector Rogers is no longer interested in paying him any attention. Solomon smiled and continued to ask, "So Auntie Eloise didn't get you one?"
Hector Rogers: "..."
Suddenly it hit me, yeah, Eloise Thompson buys so many things for his own son but not a single one for himself, he's not even as good as his own son now?
"Daddy why don't you say something! Will you take me to Auntie Eloise tomorrow? I haven't been to Auntie Eloise's house for dinner in ages."
The more Solomon thought about it, the harder it got, but it was good that Auntie Eloise hadn't forgotten him and had given him clothes, and Solomon himself now felt like he was on the verge of heaven with joy.
Jin Shao was jealous of his own son in his heart, and when he heard this, he spoke directly, "No, tomorrow you go to your grandparents' for a month."
"Huh?" Solomon's entire body was confused.
"Why?"
"No reason."
Having said that, the haughty Mr Hector walked straight upstairs.
Solomon stood behind him with a dumbfounded look on his face, what's with the fat four? Wasn't Daddy just fine? What's going on here?
...
The following day, Eloise Thompson woke up from a nightmare.
She dreamed of the child who had cried out to her, "Mommy, I want new clothes too ..."
"Mum, why don't you come to me..."
Eloise Thompson opened her eyes, her whole heart pumping with pain, and she couldn't stop the tears from flowing from the corners of her eyes. His children...
She wants to go to that guy too! She also wants to buy lots of clothes and toys for her children, but she doesn't even know where he is ... Son, mum is sorry.
After washing up, she changed into the clothes Hector Rogers had sent her yesterday and went straight to work.
...
Upon arriving at the office, Eloise Thompson gathered her emotions and got down to work, intending to get the proposal out today.
By midday the mobile phone on the table rang, it was Hector Rogers calling, and the man's soft, magnetic voice came across the other line. "Have you eaten?"
Eloise Thompson gave a start and spoke up in a rush, "Ate."
Actually, she hadn't eaten yet! She'd been so busy that she'd forgotten to even eat, just like last night, but was afraid Hector Rogers would come over when he found out, like he did last night.
Yesterday she was working late, her colleagues were gone and she was alone in the office, but today is different, there are a lot of people in the office! If Hector Rogers comes over, it will probably cause quite a stir, and then... From across the room came the soft laugh of Hector Rogers, who saw right through Eloise Thompson's lie.
"Hurry up and go to dinner, I'll take Solomon over to you tonight."
How could he have guessed he was lying, Eloise Thompson said with some embarrassment, "I'm afraid I can't tonight, I'll be late at night."
Hector Rogers knew that Eloise Thompson was working on a project and he sighed helplessly, even if he was a workaholic, the person he liked was a workaholic too.
"All right then! You get back early when you're done."
Eloise Thompson's face turned a little strange as she coughed dryly and said, "I know, I'll hang up now, then."
Having said that, Eloise Thompson hung up the phone in a hurry.
At that moment, a colleague who had just gone out for dinner brought Eloise Thompson a meal back and put it on the table. Looking at Eloise Thompson's face, the female colleague spoke up gossiping, "Eloise, what's wrong, on the phone with your boyfriend?"
On hearing this, Eloise Thompson hastened to deny it.
"No no, what are you talking about!"
"I was just saying that! Look how red you are, when are you going to bring your boyfriend for us to meet?"
"Yes, yes! What kind of person actually took the most beautiful employee of our company under his wing?"
The male colleague also spoke up, "Eloise, hurry up and bring him out, lovers meet lovers, I need to have a knife ready."
"That's enough of you! Don't talk nonsense, I'm going to eat first."
Looking at the gossipy faces, Eloise Thompson rushed off to the pantry with her food, she and Hector Rogers are not boyfriend and girlfriend!
Eloise Thompson said inwardly, but the smile on her face somehow became deeper and deeper, and even Eloise Thompson herself did not realise that she was very much a woman in love at the moment.
...
After lunch, Eloise Thompson went back to work and in the afternoon she took her initial proposal to Layla Davidson, who said with some surprise, "It's only been a day! You've got it done so quickly?" Eloise Thompson smiled and handed the document to Layla Davidson.
"It's just a preliminary proposal too, Manager Layla you see if there's anything that needs to be changed."
Layla Davidson had a glint in her eye. It was rare for Eloise Thompson to take three or four days, or a week, to produce a proposal.
Sure enough, it's the woman their big boss has his eye on! It's just not the same.
It was during this time together that Layla Davidson was to discover that Eloise Thompson was a woman who, although seemingly ordinary, was actually better than many.
