Love Comes To Me
Chapter 996: You are my husband

Eloise is led into the Chairman's office by Hector.

"You can read a book, or do something else, while I get busy." Hector pressed her to the sofa and looked down at her tenderly.

Eloise guffawed and smiled softly, "You get busy, don't mind me."

Hector touched her red lips lightly and walked towards his desk.

Eloise turned her head to look at him and pursed her lips when she saw how quickly he got into his work.

He is really charming when he is serious about his work.

She looked around, got up and went to the bookcase and took a book from it. Returning to the sofa, she sat down and opened the book to read it.

One sits behind a desk, the other on a sofa, both doing their own thing, the air flowing quietly, still and welcoming.

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.

Eloise looked up, only to see the door being opened from outside.

"Brother, I heard that you brought your sister-in-law to the office, is that true?"

Rupert asked stammeringly as he walked in, sweeping up a familiar figure out of the corner of his eye.

Turning his head, he saw that it was Eloise.

"OMG, it's really my sister-in-law!" Rupert was amazed.

Eloise couldn't help but smile and snicker, "So surprised to see me?"

Rupert hastily returned to normal, rubbed his nose and said, "I'm just surprised that brother brought you along."

"Husband and wife, you know?" Eloise raised an eyebrow, a hint of derision in her words.

Husband and wife.

Rupert couldn't help but winced, "Sister-in-law, I still lose to you when it comes to showing affection."

Eloise curled her lips in a smile, "I am humbled."

Rupert: "..."

He really couldn't talk her out of it.

"What are you doing here?" Hector asked out loud..

"I ... I came to see my sister-in-law." Rupert said with extreme justification.

"You're idle?" Hector asked again.

"I ...," said Rupert, suddenly aware of the danger, and hastened to put on a smile full of ingratiation, "how can I be very idle? I am taking that little time out to see my sister-in-law, and will go at once." Eloise laughed out loud at his exaggerated use of his fingers to compare "a little" time, "Rupert, why are you so afraid of your brother?"

"Sister-in-law, I'm not afraid." Rupert denied, "I call that respect."

Eloise laughed even more, "Well, well, it's respect."

Rupert knew she was mocking himself but wasn't annoyed, "Sister-in-law, I'll catch up with you when I'm done."

Having said that, he quickly left before Hector could make a sound.

"How can Rupert be so funny? It's not like your character at all."

Eloise smiled and turned her head to look at Hector.

Only to see Hector raise an eyebrow, "You like his kind of personality?"

"Such an interesting character of course I like it."

As she watched Hector's eyes darken, she immediately reacted and hastily added, "But what I like most is your kind of character, though short on words and cold, all the tenderness is given to only one person, and I am honoured that I have become that person."

Is this her confession?

Hector smiled, even the tips of his eyebrows were tinged with laughter, "So you have to cherish it, you know?"

Eloise's eyes widened in surprise, this was not like something he would normally say.

Seeing what she was thinking, the smile on Hector's lips deepened a few points, "I will cherish you too, for the rest of my life."

Why are they suddenly confessing their feelings for each other?

Eloise, a little confused but still touched at heart, nodded heavily, "Well, for life."

Hector got up to go over and hug her when the knock on the door sounded again.

A flash of annoyance crossed his face and he said unpleasantly, "Rupert, get out of my way before I get angry."

Thomas at the door looked bewildered, what had the president done again?

"Prince, it's me." He raised his voice to identify himself to the people inside.

At the sound, Eloise burst out laughing, she saw Hector's slightly embarrassed expression and hurriedly coughed softly, "It's Thomas, not Rupert." She was holding back a laugh, but the laughter was still evident in her voice.

Hector gave her a look, quickly returning to his usual expressionless face, "Come in."

Thomas pushed the door open and walked in, and when he saw Eloise, he respectfully called out, "Miss Eloise."

Eloise nods her head.

"What is it?" Hector asked in a faint voice.

Thomas couldn't help but glance at Eloise.

Hector understood what he meant, "Just say it's okay."

"Here's the thing, I've been informed that the SA Group is trying to get in touch with Bergerian and should want to continue the partnership."

Previously, the SA Group and Bergerian were at loggerheads over the herbs, and with the SA Group running out of herbs for further experiments, there was some bad blood between the two parties.

Hector narrowed his eyes, "Looks like my suspicions were right."

Eloise frowned, "SA Group bought the herbs and they are still Khan Group's, right?"

He had mentioned earlier that Arlice might have teamed up with the SA group, so the speculation he was referring to would be this.

"Exactly. Without the herbs, the SA Group doesn't have the bottom line to salvage its relationship with Bergerian."

"So what should we do now?" Thomas asked.

Hector pondered for a moment, "Even if they work together again, both sides will keep an eye out because of what happened before, so as soon as there is a problem with one side, the other side will immediately terminate the cooperation." Thomas nodded and asked again, "So is there something for Killers to do?"

"No need. killers is not employed by me, she has her own organisation."

The implication is that Thomas should not move to ask Killers to do anything.

Eloise touched her hand, thoughtfully for a moment, and enquired, "Do you need to go to Italy?"

At these words, Hector looked at her, and although she looked calm, the unease that shone in her eyes betrayed what was really on her mind at the moment.

"No need." Hector said, "I'll have Ramm keep an eye on it, I don't have to go myself."

Just don't go.

Eloise was secretly relieved, she was afraid that he might be in danger if he went to Italy, after all that Bergerian was no good.

"Thomas, tell Ramm to send someone to keep an eye on the SA group and report back to me if there's anything."

"Good. I'll get in touch with Ramm right away."

Once Thomas was out, Eloise got up and walked over to her desk, her clear, clean eyes looking at Hector with a slight snort, "Are you and Killers close?"

Killers is beautiful, just your typical big beautiful girl.

However, she also knew that Hector and Killers were just friends and not so much as to go jealous or anything.

"Jealous?" Hector asked tentatively, his dark eyes rippling with a slight smile.

"I'm not jealous." Eloise shook her head.

She was only joking.

Hector lost his smile, "Just remember Killers and I are in a partnership, I've never meant anything else for her."

"I know ..."

Knowing that Hector took it seriously, she walked up to him and hooked her arms around his neck, her bright eyes meeting his on all fours, "Of course I know. You are my husband and you will only be my husband." Hector gives her a lot of security and she is not sensitive and suspicious.

At least so far, that is the case.
