Love Comes To Me -
Chapter 372: Wanting to be by your side
He kissed her cheek gently and tucked her in before Hector went out to take care of company business.
It wasn't until five o'clock in the afternoon that Eloise woke up from her sleep, her body feeling tired and somehow sleepy lately.
She peeks to her side, which is empty, and is answered by the sound of keyboard tapping at the door.
When she saw the neatly folded clothes at hand, Eloise couldn't help but inwardly praise him for being so thoughtful.
As she walked out of the lounge, she saw Hector flicking through his papers, so Eloise sat down and swiped her phone.
The space was quiet for a while, with only the sound of paper rubbing together.
Although they did not speak, Eloise looked up every now and then and met Hector's smiling eyes, which was very satisfying. Tired of sitting on the sofa, Eloise went for a walk and returned with two cups of coffee.
Seeing Hector's fingers still tapping away at the keyboard, Eloise knew he must be having some trouble right now.
Hector took a sip of his coffee and then went back to work, not looking up the whole time.
It wasn't until the evening that Hector got up from his seat and briefly stretched his muscles when he heard a clicking sound.
A quick glance at Eloise revealed that she was intently reading a book.
Hector crept up behind her and, when she wasn't looking, gave her a peck on the cheek.
Eloise jerked back from the sudden attack to see Hector looking at her with a wicked grin on his face.
"Why do you do that every time, one more time and I'll ignore you."
She said and pretended to be angry and turned her head to the side.
Hector hurriedly sat down beside her and made amends, "Alright, I'm wrong wifey, promise there won't be a next time, it's been hard for you to stay here with me this afternoon." Eloise sniffed and leaned into his arms, saying softly, "I know you're busy right now, but take care of yourself too."
"Prince, may I come in?"
Just as the two were making out, Marian's voice came through the door.
"Come in." Hector said coldly.
Marian entered and saw the two snuggled up on the sofa and couldn't help but clench his palms and look at Eloise with a chill in his gaze.
But there was an immediate change of attitude when it came time to report the news to Hector.
"Prince, we have found out the organisation behind those two, the duo belong to a mafia in Germany, a mafia whose members are mostly people who are up to no good."
Hearing Marian's words, Hector frowned slightly and looked at Eloise with worry.
If this group appeared here, then they would inevitably target those around him, and then his Eloise would probably be in danger.
No, he would never let his Eloise be in danger.
With that in mind, Hector turned to Marian and instructed, "You will stay by Eloise's side from now on and protect her."
Hector was confident in Marian's skills, after all, he had brought her up by himself.
Eloise was surprised to hear his decision, but thinking of Marian's hostility towards her, she quickly said, "Hector, it's okay with me, right now your side is the one that needs the most men, no need to waste them on me." Marian looked at Eloise with great reluctance and said, "Prince, I want to stay by your side."
But as soon as Marian's words were out of his mouth, Hector sank his face and said coldly, "Are you trying to disobey orders?"
Marian sensed that Hector was really angry and replied, "I dare not."
Even though Marian was reluctant to do so, she did not dare to make a scene in front of Hector, as it would be more than worthwhile to annoy him.
She would only transfer that resentment to Eloise.
Hector's face lightened when Marian agreed, and he stroked Eloise's cheek, "Eloise, we're in an eventful time, and I don't want your safety to be threatened, so make sure you protect yourself."
Eloise nodded at her words, when her phone rang.
Inwardly she was in denial when she saw the name displayed on the screen and answered it in a hurry when she heard Solomon's voice come through, "Mummy, why haven't you come to pick me up yet." "Baby, Mummy's on her way, just wait patiently for Mummy for a little while longer, okay?" Eloise said soothingly.
Eloise had always picked Solomon up from school and back because of the current family troubles, and today she had forgotten.
After hanging up Solomon's phone, Eloise hurried out of the office with Marian following behind her.
When they arrived at the nursery, Solomon immediately pounced on Eloise, saying sweetly, "Mummy!"
When Marian saw Solomon, she tried to say hello, but Solomon only gave a faint response and went back to her lovemaking with Eloise.
This made Marian's heart feel a little bad, and she looked at Eloise's back with some jealousy.
Ever since this woman had appeared, both Hector and Solomon had become much colder towards her, and it was all because of her. Eloise felt the powerful resentment behind her and paid no attention to it, taking Solomon to the restaurant Hector had arranged to dine in. "Daddy, I got a compliment from my teacher today, she said I was a brave boy." When he saw Hector, Solomon immediately bragged. Solomon had already told Eloise about it just now on the way, so now he was just trying to get a compliment from Hector as well. Hector sniffed and rubbed Solomon's head and said with a smile, "Our Solomon is amazing."
After hearing Hector's compliment, Solomon was satisfied.
Later in the evening, the three arrived at the hospital with the intention of seeing how Rupert was doing.
Just as they entered the ward, they saw a rather ambiguous scene, only to see Aisly squeezing Rupert's leg, but in an ambiguous position.
From Eloise's perspective, Rupert is seen with Aisly in his arms and Aisly leaning intimately on Rupert's shoulder.
She hurriedly covered Solomon's eyes and said with a smile, "You guys go on, don't mind us."
Aisly's face turned red at the words, at this moment she could say she wanted to die, it was all Rupert's fault, he had to rub his legs for himself, this was good, she was misunderstood by Sister Eloise. "Sister Eloise ... things are not what you think, I just... just rubbed his leg."
Rupert also explained, "Sister-in-law, don't misunderstand, I just have a sore leg and asked her to massage it for me, nothing is wrong."
But it seemed that after the explanation, it was a bit more indefinable.
"Oh" Eloise smiled and looked at the duo, her voice extremely ambiguous.
