NovelUpdateChapter 44 Whether it was out of gratitude towards Harvey or because of his charm, Eloise wrapped her arms around his neck and gave him a peck. Under Harvey's gaze, she felt a warmth spread through her body. She mustered up her courage and asked, "Should we keep going?" Suddenly, Harvey leaned in. He moved forward and she moved back. Eloise ended up lying down, barely managing to hold herself up. She didn't dare look at Harvey, and lowered her eyes. Her long eyelashes cast shadows in the light, looking like little fans.
He caught one of her hands and placed it on his face to feel. "Ms. Laurent, do you like it?" Eloise's eyes widened, and her face involuntarily turned red.

Harvey looked a bit disappointed. Actually, he had been really busy recently and was already tired. He was just momentarily attracted by Eloise in her black shirt, but then lost the mood to continue.
He tidied up the medical kit and then got into bed. Having someone else in bed was something he wasn't used to, so he simply pulled Eloise into his arms and intertwined their fingers.
Eloise was trapped in his embrace, not daring to move. She thought she wouldn't be able to sleep, but she quickly fell asleep to his steady heartbeat. That night, she slept better than she had in a long while.
When she woke up, it was already eight in the morning. She suddenly sat up and saw that Harvey was already up, tying his tie at the side of the bed. He was wearing a dark blue shirt and grey trousers, looking mature and handsome.
Seeing that she was awake, Harvey casually said, "I'll be heading out in a bit! Go hand pack your things during the day. I'll pick you up tonight." Eloise replied softly, "Wouldn't it be better if I just cover when you want me?" Harvey gave a slight smile, "It's more convenient if you stay here." He was busy with work, and it would be too much of a hassle to pick her up whenever he had free time. Eloise didn't argue anymore.

Seeing her expression, Harvey explained, "That's Marianna! She comes over for four hours every morning to make breakfast and clean. It won't disrupt our normal routine." Eloise nodded. She got out of bed to help him tie his tie. Eloise's fingers were nimble and she tied the tie nicely. Harvey couldn't help but ask, "Did you used to always tie Max's ties?" A pang of pain shot through Eloise's heart. Actually, she didn't. She often tied her dad's ties, Max didn't like her touching him. He always kept a distance from her.
Eloise quietly retorted, "Harvey, can we not mention him in the future?"
Harvey didn't say anything more. He pointed at the paper bag on the, m bedside table, "Denise dropped it off this morning. There's clothes and a set of underwear and panties, try them on." Eloise's face immediately turned bright red. She didn't dare to think about what Denise was thinking.
Harvey lightly pinched her face, "Are you blushing again? It's normal to be in love. No one will say anything."
After saying that, he left the bedroom. Eloise, her face red and ears burning, took the clothes to the bathroom to change. The clothes fit perfectly, and even the underwear was the right size. Thinking that Harvey was the one who picked out the sizes, she felt even more embarrassed.
In the spacious dining room, Harvey was sipping on his coffee while reading the financial morning news. Aside from his law firm, he also had other businesses, but most were handled by a professional team. He didn't need to devote too much energy to them. Eloise walked out of the bedroom. He lifted his head, looked at her for a while, then said, "You look great."
