Pampered By My Mr. Lawyer novel Chapter 320

Chapter 320 Mr. Ryan You're Out of My League (2)

The atmosphere inside was weird.

Kenneth's finger traced over the card and his expression became sombre. No one could tell what he was thinking.

Eloise stood in the doorway, with tears in her eyes.

She was like a poor puppy.

Kenneth slowly got up and walked toward the door. Violet seemed to realize something and called out to him, "Kenneth!"

Kenneth didn't seem to hear her and paced to the door. His tone was gentle and loving as he said, "Why are you following me here?"

Eloise looked up at him.

So did Violet and the other people inside.

After a long moment, Eloise said, "I forgot the autograph!"

She was obviously lying.

Everyone in there could tell it, but no one dared to call her out on her lie.

Because Eloise was special to Kenneth.

A smile slowly lit Kenneth's face. Then he turned his head and said, "Violet, this is your fault! Give her your autograph so that she can go home early."

Violet was amazingly good at being nice.

Immediately, she opened her handbag, took out a fragrant photo, and signed her name on it. Her bottom wiggled as she walked over to Eloise. She handed the autograph to Eloise and teased, "Your Uncle Ryan is right. It's my fault!"

Eloise muttered a thank you.

She refused to look at Kenneth again, but Kenneth kept staring at her...

When Eloise turned to leave, Kenneth asked someone to drive her home.

"No need!" Eloise shook her head wildly. "I drove here."

Kenneth then said nothing more. He reached out, as if to stroke her hair, but finally dropped his hand and smiled, "Drive safe."

Eloise merely said, "Hmm." Then she turned to leave.

From beginning to end, Eloise did not question or complain about Kenneth because they were not lovers. There was nothing going on between them.

She was not even allowed to like him!

The luxurious bronze door closed slowly.

Inside, Kenneth resumed playing cards with Violet in his arms.

But Eloise was all alone. Her shadow lengthened as the lights above shone down the hallway.

...

A lively bustle resumed in the private room.

Violet snuggled up to Kenneth, serving him gently. Santiago and his friends teased, "You should have let her stay, Kenneth. She always tags along behind you like a puppy. Why did you let her go?"

Kenneth bantered a bit with them.

However, he suddenly got upset. He wasn't supposed to feel this way.

Kenneth was single and of course, he needed a woman. Eloise walked in on him with Violet just now, but it was not a big deal. Eloise and Kenneth were not in a relationship, so she was not in a position to stop him from fooling around. But he just felt uncomfortable.

"I'm out!"

In the end, Kenneth put his cards aside and left the party.

The room was quiet.

After a long moment, Violet forced a smile and said very softly, "Are you not feeling well? Go to my place and I'll give you a massage. You always have too much on your plate."

Santiago chimed in, "Yeah, let Ms. Harris take care of you."

Kenneth didn't want to embarrass Violet.

He would just let her!

....

Violet's home was elegant. Thinking that Kenneth would come, she had asked the maid to light a lamp in the bedroom.

This was Kenneth's favorite style.

Kenneth leaned back on the sofa, his eyes closed. He enjoyed Violet's company.

Violet leaned beside him and hummed softly. The tight-fitting dress set off her thin waist and soft breasts, making her look more alluring.

Kenneth listened for a while, but the more he listened, the more disturbed he became. He gently opened his eyes.

Violet crouched beside him and begged softly, "Stay with me for the night, will you?"

Almost all men were tempted to stay with such a beautiful lady.

However, Kenneth couldn't stop thinking of Eloise, who acted like she didn't care with tears in her eyes.

Nudging Violet out of the way, Kenneth put on his shoes and said in a businesslike tone, "I've got a lot to do tomorrow morning. It's a bit out of my depth!"

Violet was upset.

Clearly, this was just his excuse...

Kenneth pinched her face and coaxed, "I'm quite busy. Really!"

Violet stomped her feet but didn't dare take it out on him.

Kenneth walked out of the house. Kaleb, who was waiting in the car, was surprised to see him and asked, "You're not with Ms. Harris tonight?"

Kenneth hopped in the car and did not answer.

After a long while, he suddenly asked, "Do you think the little thing will be mad at me?"

Kaleb was confused.

Later, he realized who Kenneth was talking about and said with a smile, "Oh, she's just a little girl and will forget it in a few days."

Kenneth smiled faintly.

Kaleb was right. Eloise had a baby bottle in her bag. How long could her infatuation last?

Kenneth closed his eyes and whispered, "Go to the Clarks' mansion."
