Love Comes To Me -
Chapter 88: The Sparrow Still Wants to Become a Phoenix
Indeed, Hector Rogers was going to be busy tonight and he didn't have that much time to look after Eloise Thompson, and after thinking about it he spoke up and said, "Leave Solomon to you then." Leave Solomon here and she won't be bored alone.
"Okay, okay, I'll stay here with Auntie Eloise, don't worry Daddy! I'll take care of Auntie Eloise."
Solomon was all excited and looked like daddy just go away and leave me alone with Auntie Eloise.
A look of helplessness flashed in Hector Rogers' eyes as his mellow voice spoke, "I'll go ahead." "Hmm."
Eloise Thompson nodded and watched him leave before taking Solomon for a stroll.
As the two were walking, they bumped into Reeva Lawson, who was walking out of the bathroom.
"Miss Eloise, what a coincidence."
"Miss Reeva," Eloise Thompson greeted with a smile.
Reeva Lawson looked at Solomon beside her with a slight twinkle in her eye and she was about to say something when Solomon took Eloise Thompson's hand and spoke, "Auntie Eloise, I'm hungry." Reeva Lawson then spoke up, "You go ahead and take Solomon to get some food! I'm going over to Hector, call me if you need anything."
Eloise Thompson couldn't help but frown slightly, somehow it sounded like Reeva Lawson was the hostess of the party.
Eloise Thompson didn't think much of it, either, and after a breezy response she led Solomon to the dining area.
Eloise Thompson was on pins and needles as she drew a lot of stares along the way - after all, it did seem odd that she was holding the Rogers family's Solomon.
But Eloise Thompson didn't care, it was important not to starve Solomon and after fetching some food, the pair found a corner to sit in and carefully fed Solomon.
The celebrities looked at Eloise Thompson with jealousy and there were even comments to her face.
"Some people ah still have a heart, they just know how to please Solomon!"
"That's right... don't even look at what status, the sparrow still wants to become a phoenix!"
...
Eloise Thompson was a good-looking girl, but her face was not familiar, and everyone thought she had no background.
And those who saw her and Hector Rogers walk in earlier were exaggerating in their speculation that Eloise Thompson didn't see Rupert Rogers, but had taken a shine to Hector Rogers at the party and wanted to be the president's wife of the Rogers Group, and therefore was ingratiating herself with Solomon at every turn.
Everyone said and felt even more that Eloise Thompson had a heart, and that Rupert's female companion had seduced Ken, a vixen.
Eloise Thompson frowned slightly at the strange looks and comments. Aren't you happy?"
"No, Solomon overthinks it." Eloise Thompson smiled and shook her head.
Not far away, the Hector parents are also listening to the gossip. The two have actually been watching Eloise Thompson, after all, they have been curious about her for a long time and have been resisting the urge to investigate Eloise Thompson before, but have held back to prevent Hector Rogers from getting angry.
It was good to meet tonight and just to replace out if Eloise Thompson approached Hector Rogers with an agenda, as people around him say, to deliberately curry favour with Solomon or something.
But after watching for a long time, I didn't notice that Eloise Thompson didn't do anything specifically to curry favour with Solomon either.
Over here Eloise Thompson continues to feed Solomon, who doesn't like vegetables and frowns slightly at the sight of the contents of the spoon in front of him. "Auntie Eloise ..."
Eloise Thompson spoke gently and patiently, "Solomon, you can't waste food, and it's good for your health, so let's just have a little bit."
Solomon nodded good-naturedly and ate the food, although his little face was already scrunched up into a frown.
Eloise Thompson smiled, "Solomon is awesome."
The compliment came and Solomon burst out laughing, what's a few vegetables if it makes Auntie Eloise happy.
...
Fletcher Rogers took a moment to say, "The girl doesn't seem to have any bad intentions, especially towards Solomon, so I guess we're just overthinking it!" Matriarch Godbold nodded, "Probably!"
"Yeah, we have to trust Hector's eye, he's so hard to meet someone he likes."
The Rogers family had no idea about the right family, but they were worried that Eloise Thompson would approach Solomon and Hector Rogers with an agenda, after all, it was not unheard of. After all, it was not unheard of for such things to happen.
The two men stare motionlessly while greeting their guests.
Eloise Thompson was oblivious to the thoughts of the Rogers family parents. Solomon had already eaten his fill and she took the paper towel on the side and carefully wiped his mouth.
At that moment, two women passing by, and I don't know who spoke up, said, "Look at her like that, what a hypocrite, people who don't know think Solomon is her child!" "That's right, some people will really do anything to climb up the ladder."
At the words, Eloise Thompson's hand gave a slight pause, and she looked at Solomon's face in a sudden trance.
Eloise Thompson knows in her heart that Solomon thinks of her as a mummy, but how could she not? Sometimes she really thinks that Solomon is her own child.
Her eyes were downcast, her heart unconsciously remembering that child again, it was his birthday too ...
For the past four years, Eloise Thompson has tried to replace ways to get drunk on this day and not remember the events of that day.
The day the baby was taken away was a lifelong pain for her. This year, because of Solomon's presence, she was able to ignore the past, but she couldn't help thinking about this moment. How is the boy doing? Does he have a mother and father to spend his birthday with?
Eloise Thompson's heart can't help but throb with pain, how good it would have been if she had kept that child...
As she thought about it, somehow Eloise Thompson accidentally spilled juice on her dress.
"Yikes!" Solomon looked at her worriedly and spoke sharply, "Auntie Eloise are you okay?"
Eloise Thompson snapped back to her senses and waved her hand, "It's fine, it's fine, I'll go to the bathroom and get cleaned up, why don't you go replace your daddy first?"
Solomon shook his head, "No, I'm going to wait here until Auntie Eloise gets back, so go on!"
"All right then, Solomon you be a good boy and wait here, Auntie Eloise will be right back."
Eloise Thompson wasn't worried about what might happen to Solomon at the party, so she got up to leave, only to turn around and bump into someone.
"Oops!" The woman exclaimed.
Eloise Thompson was vaguely familiar with the sound of the voice and when she stood still, she looked to see that it was Olive Jenkins, Robbie Gardner's mother, with Stanley Gardner standing beside her. How did the two come to Solomon's birthday party?
Eloise Thompson blushed slightly and somehow had a bad feeling in her heart.
