Love Comes To Me -
Chapter 648: How did he get here too
Before Thomas could finish, Hector responded straight away, "Set me up."
Thomas sniffed, relieved that he had moved the young lady out in time.
He was able to see that the young lady's contact with the prince had diminished over the past few days and the prince was clearly a different person. If it goes on for a long time, it is they who suffer below.
So in order to help the prince recover his lady sooner, he naturally asked for all kinds of information.
Mr Fletcher, Mrs Matriarch saw that Hector had work on his hands and went back.
The twilight is gradually filling in and the city of Paris is already tinged with a bit of coolness at night.
As it gets dark, the glittering lights make their appearance on the streets one after another.
A black Maybach driving down the road.
Thomas is briefing Hector on the flow of the dinner, which will give him detailed information about Mr. Flood.
Hector, however, leaned lazily in his seat, looking disinterested.
Not a ripple rippled in the cold, clear eyes.
He is not a fan of such business parties from the bottom of his heart.
Thomas saw this and sighed helplessly, unable to do anything at all.
The car arrived quickly at the party.
Thomas said something like, "I'll wait outside for you."
He did not go inside, choosing to stay outside.
This is the kind of occasion where people usually bring their female companions, and naturally the president of the family will only have Eloise as his female companion. Aside, Hector doesn't even want it.
The car door opened and Hector opened his eyes, the cold implication inside fading away to be replaced by a vague sense of anticipation and warmth.
He stepped down from the car, nodded, and with a movement of his elongated body, eased into the interior of the venue.
When they entered, many of the industry's leading figures were already gathered inside the banquet.
All were smiling and talking to each other about something, nodding approvingly as they spoke.
A few pleasantries were exchanged, and the other side was quickly greeted with a smile, shaking a burgundy glass.
Hector's eyes fell indifferently on the men, seeking that his eyes began to wander, looking for Eloise.
His pace was unhurried and he carried himself with an aura of awe.
A huge crystal chandelier hangs above his head, scattering a brilliant light down onto Hector and immediately drawing the attention of the crowd.
Hector was born with a superb pin-up face, with deep, unforgettable features.
"Isn't that the president of the JS Group?"
Someone with a sharp eye recognised him and excitedly confirmed it to a bystander.
"Yeah, how come he's here? I remember he's always been very aloof and wouldn't attend such occasions, but the organisers are quite impressive to have invited him this time." The man next to him got a good look at Hector's face and also spoke in surprise.
The social aspect is particularly evident at these business banquets.
Most of the people who attended came with the idea that they wanted to facilitate business for their own businesses.
A group as large as JS is naturally the preferred partner of the banquet crowd.
As a result, some people are already tempted to come up and talk to Hector.
But Hector paid no attention to the stares that fell on him.
After scanning the circle, his eyes finally fell on a silhouette in the southern corner, and his eyes rose abruptly with intense emotion.
After not seeing her for a few days, the thoughts of her grew stronger and stronger.
This will see people and Hector can't take his eyes off of them anymore.
Eloise wore a silver-green sheath dress today, revealing her fair and delicate skin.
A long, dark hair cascades over her shoulders, adding to the delicate look.
She is a typical oriental beauty with stunning features but because of the gentle light smile on her face, she does not give offense and looks very comfortable.
She had come to the party with Mr. Darlington Sr and stood by obediently.
This time Mr. Darlington Sr had a gentle smile on his face as he exchanged pleasantries with the man next to him.
"And this one is?"
A curious enquiry was made by someone who did not know Eloise.
"Ah, this is my daughter-in-law-to-be, who has been helping me with the affairs of the company recently."
Mr. Darlington Sr. was in a happy mood as he introduced himself to everyone.
The crowd smiled and cast even more curious glances at Eloise.
Eloise's expression was slightly stunned when she heard Mr. Darlington Sr introduce himself as his daughter-in-law. Seeing someone staring at her, she couldn't afford to lose face with Mr. Darlington Sr. and had to force a smile.
Falling into place, she greeted the men, "Hello, I'm Eloise, please take care of me in the future."
"That's natural, that's natural."
The group immediately laughed too.
Mr. Darlington Sr. then went on to praise Eloise, saying that the Darlington family had found a wonderful daughter-in-law. Eloise listened on, not much happier at heart.
Most of it was just window dressing and wasn't taken seriously.
She had a decent smile on her face, outwardly engaged in serious conversation, but actually a little distracted.
Since just now, I have been aware of a very strong and fiery gaze following me.
The gaze was unabashed and blunt to the point of palpitating.
She twisted her palm slightly and furrowed her brow as she swept her eyes up that way.
Caught off guard, he met Hector's clear, dark eyes.
His eyes were locked on her, and the moment he looked at her, an intense light swept up under his eyes, with a million lingering and loving tones. The corners of Hector's lips lifted slightly before he walked slowly towards her.
The crowd consciously cleared a path for him, and everywhere he passed, the crowd stared at him with bated breath.
In a flash, Eloise's mind went blank.
Hector, how did he end up here too?
The shock was followed by a moment of uncertainty.
Eloise's sweat stood on end and her breathing became much slower.
She panicked and avoided Hector's gaze, ducking her head as the man's burning gaze made her anxious.
Biting her lower lip, she looked around for a space where she could escape.
Just as Hector was only a few metres away from her, a figure suddenly rushed out of the crowd and got in front of Hector.
"Mr Hector, it's a pleasure to meet you and thank you for your kindness in coming to this party."
The man who rushed out was Monsieur Florent, glass in hand and full of smiles as he exchanged pleasantries with Hector.
Hector frowned slightly and looked at the man in front of him, recognising that it was Thomas who had told him about the organisers.
Thus, he collected his eyes, nodded and exchanged a few words with Florent.
Seeing him turn to the others, Eloise instantly felt alive, the sight pressing against her body gone.
She breathed a secret sigh of relief.
"Excuse me, I'm going to lie down in the bathroom."
Fearing that Hector might come over and cause an awkward situation, she spoke to Mr. Darlington Sr, was granted permission and then left at a brisk pace. Mr. Darlington Sr at this end also soon noticed Hector after Eloise left.
Florent was also aware that many people in the arena wanted to talk to Hector.
took the lead in introducing him to Mr. Darlington Sr.
