Love Comes To Me
Chapter 141: I'll sleep on the couch tonight

Matriarch Godbold sighed, unable to figure out how Hector Rogers could have taken a shine to Eloise Thompson, a woman with such a complicated background.

"Mum, why are you so prejudiced against Miss Eloise! She doesn't come from a family as good as Reeva, but people have merit."

Matriarch Godbold grunted, "What could be good about it?"

The Eloise Thompson she saw was just always getting into trouble and going back on her word.

Rupert Rogers sniffed and said, "There's a lot more to it than that - seriousness, hard work, motivation, you see! They were thrown out by the Thompson family, her mother got sick and Miss Eloise carried on all by herself for so many years, taking care of her mother and completing her studies under the Thompson family's attack, which would not have been possible for anyone else.

Besides, think about it, the Thompson familyGardner family hates her so much, they must be smearing Miss Eloise in front of us and making us misunderstand her, you can't just believe what people say! You have to experience it for yourself to find out how good she is."

Matriarch Godbold's eyes twinkled slightly, which was true, and to be honest, Eloise Thompson was quite a heartbreaking little girl, but that didn't excuse her from being able to stay with Hector Rogers. Matriarch Godbold has always believed that what happened to Eloise Thompson was too complicated.

"Mum, the bottom line is that Solomon likes her, and so does my brother. It's not like you haven't seen it before, when any woman comes near my brother, he just turns away? And Solomon, since he met Miss Eloise, Solomon used to be a non- talker, but he's become more cheerful these days too."

Rupert Rogers saw the look on his parents' faces and knew it was working, so he continued, "I've never seen my brother so taken with a woman before! If you really want to see him bachelor for the rest of his life, that's fine with me."

At these words, the Hector parents looked hesitant, this matter was indeed out of their hands, and finally Matriarch Godbold spoke up with a huff, "Fine, fine, I don't care!"

Having said that, Matriarch Godbold left the study, and Fletcher Rogers said nothing.

Rupert Rogers stood behind him, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly as he spoke with a smile, "Mum, if you don't mind my brother anymore, then you have to mind me too! I'm starving, when can we have dinner?"

Then again, it's not like his parents can't talk about it after dinner, which makes his brother so angry that he leaves without eating.

But that's fine, maybe his brother went straight to his sister-in-law.

...

On this side, Hector Rogers came out and drove off.

The car drove aimlessly for some time and Hector Rogers' mood gradually calmed down.

His mind couldn't help but remember that some time ago, Eloise Thompson had avoided herself and Solomon at every turn, wanted to cut himself off, and never wanted to tell himself that the reason was because her mother had approached her and said those things. As you can imagine, she was probably very sad at the time!

Hector Rogers pulled off the road and lit a cigarette, mentally blaming himself a little for not finding out why sooner, otherwise he wouldn't have let her be aggrieved for so long.

After a long time, Hector Rogers put out his cigarette and finally turned the car around and headed in the direction of Eloise Thompson's house.

...

Eloise Thompson had just made dinner and was about to eat when she heard the doorbell and got up to open it. Before she could react, she was hugged by the person outside. Eloise Thompson was startled by the familiar scent at the tip of her nose, she looked at Hector Rogers and asked in a daze, "What are you doing here, what's going on?" For some reason, although Hector Rogers didn't say anything, Eloise Thompson was left wondering what kind of person comes up and hugs themselves. "It's okay." Hector Rogers' mellow voice spoke in response.

With the words, he slowly let go of Eloise Thompson.

Eloise Thompson was a little suspicious and after inviting him into the house, spoke up and asked, "Have you eaten?"

Hector Rogers shook his head, "No."

Eloise Thompson had to add a pair of bowls and then spoke again, "I'll go and fry two more dishes, so you can sit and wait."

She didn't expect Hector Rogers to come over, so she didn't cook much, and Eloise Thompson was just getting up when Hector Rogers stopped her. "No, that's enough."

At that, Eloise Thompson paused and sat back.

As the two ate calmly, Eloise Thompson's eyes glanced faintly at Hector Rogers, and she had a vague feeling that something was on the man's mind.

After the meal, Eloise Thompson washed the dishes and Hector Rogers was still sitting on the sofa, not looking like he was going to leave, and seeing that he was having a bad day, Eloise Thompson did not kick him out, after all, she knew that Hector Rogers was not that easy to After all, she knew that Hector Rogers was not that easy to get rid of.

But there was nothing to talk about between them at the moment! Should they just sit ... and think about it, Eloise Thompson then finally spoke up and asked, "Want to watch a movie?"

Hector Rogers nodded and didn't refuse.

Eloise Thompson was going to choose a horror film, but for fear of scaring herself, she ended up with an American blockbuster.

She brought out the snacks and drinks she had bought as well as the beer, Hector Rogers opened a beer and the film played on the screen, quite nicely at first, in a harmonious atmosphere and with Eloise Thompson watching enthralled. By the midway point, the eerie atmosphere came.

The hero and heroine of the play kissed and rolled in bed, and there were ambiguous sounds in the air. How can a good American blockbuster be... critical and it was her own choice, she hadn't even seen it!

And for some reason, Eloise Thompson's mind actually recalled the image of herself getting drunk last night, and they seemed to ... Eloise Thompson blushed and finally couldn't continue to sit calmly and watch any longer, she brushed herself off and spoke, "You go on watching! I'm going to take a shower first."

Having said that, Eloise Thompson thought about it and something was wrong, the female lead in the play had also just come out of the shower and seen the male lead then...

Hector Rogers looked at Eloise Thompson with a faint smile in the man's eyes and

Eloise Thompson stopped again, she coughed dryly and spoke, "It's getting late too, are you going home?"

The corners of Hector Rogers' mouth curved slightly as he shook the bottle of beer in his hand and his low, magnetic voice spoke, "I can't drive if I've been drinking, so I'll sleep on the couch here tonight."

Eloise Thompson blushed even more, wasn't that a fucking line from the hero of the play just now aaaaahhhhh!

Also, you can ask for a chauffeur if you can't drive, but in the end Eloise Thompson didn't say anything and spoke awkwardly, "So... then I'll go get your quilt."

After saying that, Eloise Thompson fled to her room in a hurry, with the sound of the heroine's wooing still coming from the TV behind her ...

Hector Rogers was laughing surprisingly hard out there, and the displeasure of the night's events was instantly dispersed in his mind. How could he let go of such an interesting girl.
