Chapter 64
Her soothing voice was later on finally able to break through the older woman’s state of shock. “Eloise, go and take a shower. I will prepare something for us to eat.”
Eloise’s grip suddenly tightened on Rena’s arm, her expression resolute.
“Rena, I forbid you from going back to that bastard!”
Rena’s gaze dropped, concealing the complexities of her plan.This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
She knew that becoming Harold’s mistress was now her only option. There was nothing else she could do. It was her sole means of protecting her father and keeping Eloise out of harm’s way.
She could not divulge her true intentions to Eloise, for her plan involved solving all their problems, securing their safety, and ultimately severing all ties with Harold.
Because of the man’s insanity and obsession towards her, she was left with no other alternative.
In an attempt to pacify Eloise’s worry, Rena made up a story. She promised to visit Hyatt and consult with Vera, exploring any possible avenues of help. Eloise, comforted by her repeated assurances, eased her grip slightly and looked as if she was starting to trust her words.
In a private hospital in Duefron, Harold was sent to a ward after receiving treatment.
He changed into a loose hospital gown, with layers of gauze wrapped around his waist.
Even so, he continued discussing business with his assistant.
At the same time, Cecilia arrived.
Her eyes were bloodshot as she stared at him in disbelief. “Harold, who did this to you?”
Not wanting to admit that he had indeed set up Eloise to hurt him, he immediately made up a story. Fortunately, Cecilia did not show signs of suspicion and even felt sorry for him.
Staring at her eyes that were laced with genuine concern, Harold wasn’t able to help but think of Rena.
Rena used to love him with all her heart. However, she barely spared him a glance nowadays. Even though he had been severely injured, she did not seemed to have been worried about him. What upset him the most was that she even did not bother to shed a single tear for him.
Harold found himself overcome with a sense of melancholy.
Leaning against the headboard of the bed, he enjoyed the attention his lovely fiancée pampered him with as she dutifully fed him with some food and water. Her actions defied the expectations of a spoiled young lady from a wealthy family.
Cecilia’s beauty captivated Harold, and he couldn’t help but feel grateful for her presence.
Instructing his men to leave, Harold drew closer to Cecilia, pressing his body against hers.

Blushing, she traced her slender fingers along his chest, softly urging him, “Please, get up! Your waist is wounded.”
Harold’s eyes held a deep intensity, brimming with a mix of desire and aggression.
Feeling his intense gaze, she couldn’t help but tremble in response.
The atmosphere quickly turned intimate, and their passion consumed them. Hours passed as Harold’s fervor showed no sign of abating, until they finally succumbed to exhaustion. Panting softly, Cecilia nestled in his arms, her demeanor shifting to that of a shy and spoiled child. “What has gotten over you today?”
He replied lazily, “Nothing at all. I simply missed you.”
