Love Comes To Me -
Chapter 373: Inexplicable Hostility
This would really turn out to be a no-brainer here.
Aisly's cheeks flushed red when they looked at her like that, so she couldn't stay and ran away with her head down.
Rupert didn't expect her to run off like that, but he was still upset and called out, "Aisly, don't run away."
But Aisly hadn't heard him and was long gone.
Eloise said, "I'm sorry, Rupert, I scared her off."
After all, Hector was here, so Rupert dared not say anything, and simply waved his hand graciously, "It's all right, brother, sister-in-law, and Solomon, you sit down."
Hector didn't intend to stay long, so he waved his hand to indicate that he didn't need to sit, and then turned to Rupert, "How are you, are you alright?"
Rupert said with a disinterested look, "Nothing, can't die anyway."
Hector frowned at his lack of concern for his health and then said, "Stay well, too."
Rupert still listened to him, so he hurriedly nodded; with Aisly in the hospital with him, staying wasn't really that bad.
Hector looked at the door and, presumably thinking of Aisly, said, "We'll go back then, you can call her back later."
She was naturally referring to Aisly, and even Rupert understood without Hector saying so.
Eloise followed suit, "We'll go back then, you take care of yourself."
Solomon also said, "Bye, Uncle."
With that, Hector took the two mothers back home.
Since Hector himself had told Marian to stay with Eloise at all times, she followed them home.
It was hard for Marian to watch the three of them together, but she accepted the thought of being able to follow Hector around.
Even if Hector wasn't focused on her.
The following day, Hector left early in the morning.
It was then that Hector's mother woke up to see the gorgeous back of Hector left behind, and was momentarily displeased.
"Why did you leave so early, how can your body stand it without eating some breakfast."
Eloise was about to say something when Marian immediately chimed in, "There are foreign executives coming to the country today and the president has important things to talk about, so he left first." Hector's mother didn't know much about the business world, nor did she want to, so she just shook her head, probably blaming Hector for not taking care of his own health.
Eloise wanted to say something, but when she saw that Hector's mother was no longer interested in asking questions, she said, "Auntie, let's have breakfast first."
Hector's mother nodded and went to the dining room.
Only Eloise's mind grew more and more puzzled; what was it about the top brass that Marian knew and she knew nothing about? And it looked as if Hector wasn't going to tell her either.
As she thought about it, Eloise was already a little full, so she put down her dishes.
By this time, Hector's mother had almost finished her meal. After all, Rupert was still in hospital and she couldn't rest assured."
Eloise nodded her head, "Don't worry, I'll go and pack."
After all, she was Solomon's mummy, so Hector's mother had no reason to worry, so she ordered the maid to pack up the food and went straight to the hospital.
It was getting late, so Eloise took Solomon and set off.
On the way there, Eloise was still thinking about what Marian had said about Hector's meeting with a senior foreign official and asked, "Marian, do you know what kind of senior official? It made Hector so anxious." Marian drove on without turning his head and said, "No comment."
At this answer, Eloise frowned a little unsatisfactorily and looked at Marian's face in the mirror, noticing that her face did not look very good, as if it was covered with a layer of frost, giving her a cold feeling. Knowing how hostile Marian was towards her, Eloise didn't want to ask any more questions, so she simply mulled it over in her own mind.
To her surprise, Marian herself spoke up, "There's a lot you don't know about the president, and it's not always possible for you, Missy, to know everything."
Eloise naturally sensed the insinuation in Marian's words and felt very uncomfortable. It was as if she knew everything.
A dark smell of gunpowder rose in the car.
Marian was pleased to see Eloise's unnatural face.
She had her day, wasn't she usually so good at playing innocent?
The smart Solomon naturally sensed Marian's hostility and Mummy's unhappiness, and hurriedly reassured her, "It's okay Mummy, let's just go back and ask Daddy."
Seeing how sweet her son was, Eloise nodded and gently rubbed his head before giving a soft laugh.
After all, there had been some unpleasantness and the conversation had been uncomfortable, so the few people in the car didn't say anything else.
Eloise ignored Marian even after she dropped Solomon off, who didn't see eye to eye with her, and she didn't necessarily see eye to eye with the other woman's fake nobility.
Since she was sitting in the car, Eloise took the time to open her project and work on it.
When she arrived at the office, she saw that Hector was not in his office. Since he was a foreign executive, they should be in the conference room to talk.
Eloise was going to go to the conference room to see who was there, but then she remembered that they were too busy to spend money at the moment, so she dismissed the idea.
She took out her phone and sent a message to Hector: "Honey, remember to eat something for your stomach.
I don't know if it was because she was too busy, but Hector didn't reply.
After a while, she saw Marian answer a phone call and then also went to the conference room.
Eloise's eyes gradually darkened, he must be very busy at the moment...
The maid brought over dinner, but I didn't expect Hector to come down until now.
Eloise ate her own meal, left his share there and went to her desk to work on the project.
At that moment, the manager came over, saw Eloise here and hurriedly said, "Miss Eloise, can I ask you a favour? I have a project meeting with a client, but I can't replace the time, can you go for me?" It wasn't a big deal after all, so Eloise agreed.
The manager thanked her profusely and hurriedly went to get the proposal and gave it to her.
Eloise took the proposal and went out, with no intention of waiting for Marian to join her.
