Chapter 57 Just A Bastard
Then a low male voice came from the other end of the line.
"Go to bed early. I'll come and pick you up tomorrow."
It was Hector.
Eloise's heart skipped a beat. She pursed her lips and said, "Okay."
"Well, good night."
"Good night."
After the phone hung up, Eloise was stunned for a couple of seconds before she cleared her desk and
went to rest.
...
The following day, Hector came to pick up Eloise early in the morning to go to the Rogers family to do
her make-up.
After arriving at the Rogers family, Eloise gave Hector the proposal.
"The proposal for Solomon's birthday party has been made. See if there's anything inappropriate that
you want to change."
Hearing what she said, Hector took the file from Eloise and flipped it open.
The proposal was very detailed and had a lot of elements in it. All of which are Solomon liked.
It was clear that Eloise had put a lot of thought into this proposal.
No wonder it was so difficult for him and Solomon to see her these days. So that was what she was
working on.
"How's it going?" Eloise asked.
Hector pursed his lips and said, "No problem. You did a good job, Eloise, thank you."
"It's good that Solomon is happy."
Hector handed the proposal to his assistant.
"Solomon's birthday will go by this."
"Yes, Mr. Rogers."
The assistant took the papers and then left.
A glimmer of amusement showed in her eyes. She was relieved to have completed her task
successfully and thought to herself that she hoped Solomon would have a memorable birthday party.
The maids then began to put on their make-up and Solomon played the red-lipped Little Red Riding
Hood, just as he did that day. He looked lovable and still cute as ever.
Eloise played Granny but was the youngest one. She had light make-up on her face and looked
exquisite.
"Miss Eloise, you are beautiful!" Solomon spoke up to compliment her.
Eloise smiled, "Solomon, you are lovely too!"
And Hector was dressed as the Big Bad Wolf ... He had a cool face but looked very handsome, and the
outfit had a kind of anti-cute look on him.
Looking at him, Eloise wanted to laugh. She curled her lips and spoke, "Mr. Rogers is so handsome.
Solomon, don't you think so?"
Solomon looked at his daddy and nodded.
"Well, it feels like Daddy is even cuter than me."
Solomon actually used the word cute to describe Hector. Eloise couldn't help but laugh out loud.
She took out her phone and couldn't resist taking a few pictures.
Hector's handsome face darkened a little. But looking at the smile on Eloise's face, the corners of his
mouth involuntarily lifted and he didn't stop her from taking pictures.
Once everything was ready, the three of them set off for the kindergarten.
The atmosphere in the carriage was harmonious as the three of them exchanged lines.
Although neither of them had rehearsed, somehow Eloise didn't doubt for a second that they had a
good understanding.
When they arrived at the kindergarten, Hector went to park the car while Eloise dragged Solomon into it
first.
As soon as they got out of the car, Solomon spoke sweetly to Eloise and called out, "Mummy!"
Eloise was now playing the role of Solomon's parent, so naturally, his address to her changed.
Yet somehow, Eloise's heart fluttered hard at the sound “Mummy”. It took her a long time to come back
to her senses.
She stroked Solomon's head and spoke with a smile, "Well, let's go!"
Solomon took Eloise and greeted the teacher before going to greet the children.
"Solomon, is this your mummy? She's so good-looking."
"Yeah!"
Solomon smiled proudly and Eloise couldn't help but smile too. She then chatted to the parents on the
side.
Just then, a nonchalant voice came.
"Eloise, it's really you, huh?"
Eloise looked back and saw a woman who looked to be in her late twenties standing behind her,
wearing designer clothes and carrying an LV bag. She was wearing delicate make-up on her face and
was looking at Eloise with a disdainful look on her face.
Eloise was no stranger to this person. She was Robbie's sister, Ariella.
Beside her stood her husband and child.
It truly was a small world after all! She hadn't expected Ariella's child to be in this kindergarten.
When she was with Robbie, Ariella hated her and was always deliberately targeting her and saying bad
things about her in front of Robbie's parents. In contrast, she did her best to please Agnes every time.
When she saw Eloise, Ariella felt bad. She spoke in an arrogant tone and taunted, "Eloise, how can
there be a woman like you who looks like a jinx!"
Ariella rarely went back to the Gardner family, except to hear on the phone that her brother had nearly
broken his hand because of Eloise. The partnership between the Gardner family, the Thompson family,
and the Rogers Group had also fallen through because of Eloise.
Ariella didn't know exactly what was going on.
Eloise's eyes were downcast. She didn't want to argue with Ariella in public and in front of Solomon.
But Ariella clearly wasn't going to let go of her chance to reprove Eloise as she continued, "We Gardner
family and the Thompson family have had a good time during your absence. When you showed up, you
made a mess of our Gardner family and my sister-in-law's house, and put my brother in the hospital for
so long. And you also disgraced our family back then. After all these years, you're still the same as
ever, and all you do is drag the family down."
"Ariella, that’s enough." Eloise's eyes turned cold.
Robbie and the Thompson family, one had knocked her out and taken her away, the other had taken
her mother. Hadn't she brought it on herself to get to where she was today?
"What? Did I say something wrong?" Ariella stepped forward aggressively.
Seeing this, Solomon stepped forward and said, "Bad woman, don't bully my mummy."
Solomon looked at Ariella warily.
He had to protect his mummy while Daddy was away.
Mummy? Looking at Solomon in front of her, Ariella's eyes flashed with dismay. Yes, this was
kindergarten!
She looked at Eloise and curled her mouth mockingly.
"Is this the bastard you had with another man?"
There were a number of mothers of children around. Everyone knew that Ariella was Robbie's sister,
and they were fawning over her and sucking up to her. When they heard what she had said, there was
an outbreak of muttering.
"Miss Gardner, who is this? Who's the bastard?"
The parents, who had been chatting with Eloise, were now taking a few steps away from her.
Ariella, playing with her nails, smiled and said, "This is my brother's ex-girlfriend. She has a problem
with her ways of doing things and she betrayed my brother and had this bastard child with another man
back then."
"I'm telling you, when she shows up, nothing good happens. I don't know if her son is the same as her
..."
She had to say that Ariella's ability to turn the facts upside down was not at all weak. Eloise was aware This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
of all the stares from parents of children around her, while others were telling their children to stay away
from Solomon and not to play with him in the future.
Eloise was furious. She stared at Ariella and asked in a cool voice, "Who are you calling bastard?"
Ariella could say what she wanted about her, but at the moment Solomon was her bottom line. Eloise's
entire body exuded coldness.
