Chapter 72 Parker seemed pretty cheesed off, and he said, "Isn't this your place? Where the heck are you going at this ungodly hour?" Parker was known to have a short fuse, and he had an air of domineering arrogance around everyone.

Everyone was scared of him, but Harvey didn't give a hoot.

His tone beceven more nonchalant, and he said, "I need to go back to check sdocuments." Parker was at his wit's end with him. He waved his hand and said, "Just get lost! You're a professional lawyer, always busy solving problems for others. Man, you're swamped!" Harvey's tone was tinged with sarcasm, and he said, "Horigan Inc. pays8 million a year to be their legal consultant. I thought you knew, Dad!" Parker picked up a knick-knack and hurled it, shouting, "Get the hell out!" Harvey beat a hasty retreat.

No sooner had he sat in the car than his father followed him out. He opened the car door and yelled, "You're really something, aren't you? Driving hafter downing all that booze? If you're so capable, why not just rocket off to space?" Harvey got out of the car and handed the keys to the driver.

The driver was a longtfamily employee. Seeing that the young master was in a foul mood, he didn't say much, just drove him to his apartment.

The car cto a halt.

Harvey slumped in the seat, he exhaled softly and said to the driver, "You can head back now!" The driver left reluctantly.

Harvey just sat there, pulling a cigarette from his pocket and putting it to his lips.

The flfrom the lighter illuminated his face.

He held the cigarette delicately between his fingers, inhaling slowly. The smoke filled his lungs, causing a painful sensation.

He found it oddly comforting.

He smoked four or five cigarettes in a row before getting out of the car and entering the apartment.

He opened the door, and the room was dim.

But it wasn't completely dark, and the living room curtains were drawn, and the soft moonlight filled the room, creating a beautiful and romantic atmosphere.

Harvey tossed his coat onto the sofa and tiptoed into the master bedroom, turning on a bedside lamp.

Eloise was sound asleep.

Her face was really pretty, resting on the pillow, her brown hair spread across it in an indescribably beautiful way.

Harvey's hand slipped under the covers, gently stirring.

Eloise woke up.

Her eyes were moist. She bit her lip and looked at him.

She didn't resist, didn't move away, just let him have his way.

Harvey lifted her head and kissed her.

The kiss deepened.

After a while, Eloise couldn't help but lay her face on his shoulder, not letting him kiss her anymore.

Her breathing was a bit chaotic, and she said, "Why are you back? You smell heavily of alcohol." Harvey breathed out a few words: "Yes, I had a few drinks at the family party." He held her and sat on the bed, but it didn't seem like he was planning on taking things further. Eloise softly said, "Why don't you take a shower? I'll make you a midnight snack, okay?" Her voice was soft, Harvey couldn't resist and kissed her again.

Their passionate kiss seemed set to last until the end of the world.

Eloise involuntarily held him tight, her delicate fingers left trails on the back of his shirt. They were both moved by their emotions, and Harvey wanted to take things further. But he felt that it might be too hasty for Eloise tonight.

In the end, he broke off the kiss.

He said, "I'll go take a shower! Makescheesy grilled corn."

He shed his clothes and entered the bathroom as he spoke. Who would have thought such meticulous man Would leave his clothes carelessly on the floor? Eloise knew he did it on purpose. Her face turned red, her heart pounding, and she dared not look at his body.

Eloise picked up his clothes and put them in the laundry basket, therm headed to the kitchen. She was quite the cook, and she had it ready in no time. The cheesy grilled corn looked great and smelled divine.

Harvey cout of the shower and sat down at the table to eat.

Having been to so many social events, he preferred home-cooked meals more.

Eloise's cooking might not be gourmet, but it was right up his alley.

He dealt with a few work messages on his phone while eating, then looked at Eloise.

"Did you get a new hairstyle?"
