Love Comes To Me -
Chapter 93: The best person for the job
Solomon leaned into Eloise Thompson's arms and was asleep in no time.
Eloise Thompson looked at his quiet sleeping face and her eyes couldn't help but flush with a touch of tenderness.
She walked gently out of bed and picked up her phone from her bag and looked at it. Eloise Thompson had put it on silent when the party started and there were a lot of missed calls and texts on it, basically from the Lawson family and the Gardner family people.
All she wants is for her to come out and clarify that Robbie Gardner didn't cheat in the first place, and for Hector Rogers to leave them alone...
A barrage of texts and phone calls, it was clear that the Gardner family and the Thompson family were in disarray.
Having been thrown out of the party in public by the Rogers family, Eloise Thompson basically imagined how serious the consequences would be and ignored them, turning her phone straight off.
The Gardner family had embarrassed her in front of so many people, and when they made this scene, they had to think of the consequences, and she was no saintly mother, so how could she possibly help them again.
...
Meanwhile, Hector Rogers was in the next room and later in the evening Fletcher Rogers knocked on the door and entered.
He mentioned Eloise Thompson after chatting with Hector Rogers about some of the things going on at the party.
"Are you serious about Miss Eloise?" Fletcher Rogers asked, speaking up.
Hector Rogers pursed his lips and instead of answering Fletcher Rogers' question specifically, he spoke up and asked, "Dad, what are you trying to say?"
Fletcher Rogers looked at him, thoughtfully and said, "Your mother and I don't have to be a match, but don't forget that the people who approached Solomon a few years ago did so with an agenda, and you'd better watch out.
This Miss Eloise is just a little more complicated, she's tangled up with the Gardner familyThompson family and there's a lot of issues involved if you really want to be with her, so Hector, you two still need to think about your relationship." That said, the Fletcher Rogers have made their intentions clear and they are not very agreeable to Hector Rogers and Eloise Thompson being together.
"Well, I get it." Hector Rogers spoke faintly.
As for Eloise Thompson, he had been watching her for some time and she had no designs on Solomon and even less on the Rogers family.
Even if he wanted to be with her, whether Eloise Thompson agreed or not was another matter.
This is a woman unlike any other!
Fletcher Rogers and Matriarch Godbold are not in favour of the two being together now, but Hector Rogers believes that sooner or later they will see the good in Eloise Thompson.
Fletcher Rogers looked at him and spoke again, "You have time to bond more with Reeva, your Patriarch Lawson is interested in joining us in marriage and your mother and I like the boy."
Either way, Fletcher Rogers and Matriarch Godbold feel that Reeva Lawson is the right person for the job right now.
On hearing this, Hector Rogers made his point straight away.
"Dad, I don't like her."
"Hector ..."
Fletcher Rogers looked slightly displeased and he was about to say something, but Hector Rogers spoke again, "Dad, you should go back to bed early if there's nothing else to do! I've got some things to take care of here." At this, Fletcher Rogers sighed and eventually left the room without saying anything else.
Meanwhile, around the corner of the room, Eloise Thompson leaned over the edge and watched Fletcher Rogers leave.
She had just intended to go over to Hector Rogers and ask if she wanted to carry Solomon back, but instead she had heard the words she shouldn't have heard.
Eloise Thompson's eyes were downcast as if something was pulling her back to reality.
Although Olive Jenkins and Stanley Gardner have gone too far today, it also indirectly shows the gap between her and Hector Rogers, even if they don't match, they still have so much complicated past...
Eloise Thompson had never had much hope from the start, but now that she has been exposed in the naked light of day, she can't help but feel sour inside. But now that the nakedness has been revealed, she can't help but feel sour inside. She did not go back in to replace Hector Rogers and left lost in thought.
...
Once Fletcher Rogers had returned to the room, Matriarch Godbold came forward and asked, "How did it go, and what did Hector say?"
Fletcher Rogers sighed, "This son of ours, I'm afraid, has really been true to people."
Although Hector Rogers didn't say how much he liked Eloise Thompson just now, after all, he was his own father, so how could Fletcher Rogers not know him?
"Huh? So what now?" Matriarch Godbold frowned slightly.
"I don't know, we'll just have to take one step at a time."
"From what Rupert says these two have only known each other for a short time too, so trying to persuade Hector to leave her now should be possible!"
Either way, Matriarch Godbold feels that the two are not at the point where their relationship is untenable at this point.
...
Over here, Eloise Thompson couldn't sleep and instead of returning to her room in time, she made her way to the second level of the deck.
At this time of the year, most people are playing or have gone to bed, so the place is very quiet.
Eloise Thompson's mind replayed what Fletcher Rogers had just said over and over again, recognising the reality in a flash, and for some reason, it was hard on her, even harder than when she first found out that Robbie Gardner and Agnes Thompson were together.
Eloise Thompson sighed, they were not from the same world in the first place, perhaps Reeva Lawson was truly the one who deserved him.
I should have known better than to expect anything, otherwise I wouldn't be so disappointed now.
At this point Eloise Thompson was so full of Hector Rogers that she didn't notice that on deck three, Reeva Lawson was standing there talking with a young woman.
Reeva Lawson gazed down at Eloise Thompson, and her eyes sank slightly.
The girl next to her also followed her line of sight and spoke with a grimace, "How can I see this woman everywhere, what a bad luck."
The girl was Reeva Lawson's cousin, Esme Lawson, who had come to the party today and had witnessed everything that had happened.
Esme Lawson spoke up angrily, "I don't know where she got it from, how dare she steal a man from you, cousin, without even looking at herself."
Hearing what she said, Reeva Lawson spoke up to reprimand, "Don't talk nonsense."
"What nonsense am I talking about, cousin, it is obvious that you are better than her in every way, you are the heir to the Lawson family and she? A daughter who was abandoned by her family and has nothing, what makes a person like that stay with Hector!"
Esme Lawson is getting angrier and angrier as she talks, "This high society used to see you and Hector as a couple a few years ago, and this woman came out of nowhere and made a scene at the party today, without looking at herself in the mirror, and that Solomon, this woman doesn't know what she has drugged her with, she likes her so much."
Reeva Lawson was very calm, the corners of her mouth curled up into a faint smile as she spoke nonchalantly, "So what, what about the man I have my eye on, I will get him back, besides, after tonight, you don't think uncle and aunt will approve of them being together."
Reeva Lawson has cringed and panicked at the presence of Eloise Thompson, but she has always been certain that Hector Rogers would be hers in the end.
