Chapter 303: How Much Does She Need a Man?
Chapter 303 How Much Does She Need a Man?
Seeing Gloria's suggestive invitation message, Harrison frowned.
As an adult man, he knew exactly what Gloria's invitation meant.
Normally, he should go meet Gloria and turn her down firmly.
But meeting Gloria at this particular time—
He'd probably be walking right into her trap.
With his wedding to Elena coming up soon, he didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble because of his own impulsiveness.
But he and Gloria had been friends for years, and Gloria had taken pretty good care of him back in school. If he just ignored Gloria completely, that wouldn't be right either.
With this in mind, Harrison picked up his phone and made a call.
After Elena left her house, she got in her car, started it, and drove to the entrance of the residential area. She found a somewhat hidden spot and parked.
She was going to sit here and see if, now that she'd created the perfect opportunity for Harrison, she could catch evidence of him going out to respond to Gloria's sexual invitation.
If that happened, Harrison would really disappoint her.
Although she really liked Harrison and was ready to spend her life with him and raise their children together, if Harrison really went to have a one-night stand with Gloria, there was no way she could accept a Harrison like that.
Even if he was the children's biological father.
Elena's life had always been in her own hands. She wouldn't fill her life with grievances for anyone's sake.
Elena sat in her car, quietly watching the exit of the residential area.
If Harrison's car came out from here, then her relationship with Harrison would probably end right there.
Just then, Charlotte called again.
Elena answered and talked to Charlotte from inside her car.
"Elena, did something happen on your end? Why do you need me to call you in the middle of the night to meet up? Did you set your sights on some hot guy and want to have a late-night date with him?"
Charlotte never had much of a filter around Elena.
Facing Charlotte's teasing, Elena couldn't respond as easily as she used to.
She thought quietly for a moment, then said to Charlotte, "It's not me going out on a date with a hot guy."
"It's Harrison."
Charlotte was surprised to hear this news.
She pressed further, "You mean Harrison is going out on a date with someone else?"
Elena replied, "I'm not sure if Harrison will go out. I just saw a message on his phone from another woman inviting him to have sex before the wedding."
"If he goes out, then the relationship between him and me would be over."
Elena's mood was somewhat low.
Charlotte cursed over the phone, "What kind of woman is that? She's totally a slut, isn't she? Knowing Harrison's about to get married, and she's still trying to seduce him?"
"How desperate for men can she be?"
Charlotte's words made Elena laugh softly.
She said to Charlotte, "Whether it's a man or a woman, as long as they're living in this society, they'll face all kinds of temptations."
"If someone tempts him and he resists the temptation and doesn't respond at all, then he's a man worth trusting and respecting."
"If he responds to this woman's seduction, then he's a bad man."
Elena's words left Charlotte confused.
In her view, no matter what the outcome, if Gloria could send Harrison such a date invitation, then Gloria definitely wasn't a good woman.
After they chatted for a while, Charlotte said to Elena, "Elena, I'm free right now. Why don't you give me Gloria's hotel address, and I'll go watch her?"
"What if Harrison doesn't take his car out? If you're watching at the entrance of the residential area, wouldn't that be useless?"
Charlotte's suggestion gave Elena an idea.
Actually, Charlotte had a point.
If Harrison didn't leave through this exit, or if he left the residential area in someone else's car, wouldn't Elena be waiting here for nothing?
She quickly agreed to Charlotte's suggestion and sent Charlotte the address that Gloria had sent to Harrison's phone.
After Charlotte received the message, she headed to the Majestic Wave Hotel.
Meanwhile, Elena was still sitting in her car, waiting at the entrance of the residential area.
The sex they'd just had left her feeling exhausted. While keeping an eye on the entrance, she stayed in touch with Charlotte on her phone.
Charlotte sent her a message: [Elena, I'm already at the entrance of the Majestic Wave Hotel.]
Elena replied: [Okay, got it.]
Charlotte sent another message: [Elena, I've opened a room right across from Gloria's room. I can see Gloria's door perfectly.]
Charlotte also sent Elena photos.
Looking at the photos on her phone, Elena's expression became very serious.
A few minutes later, another message from Charlotte came through.
[Elena, a man came to knock on the door. His back is to me, I can't see his face clearly.]
[He's wearing a light blue shirt and dark blue pants.]
Holding her phone and looking at this message, Elena's thoughts became a mess.
If she remembered correctly, that was exactly what Harrison was wearing today. He'd returned to his room and taken off that outfit before going to the bathroom.
Thinking that half an hour ago, Harrison had just had passionate sex with her, and half an hour later, he was rushing to the hotel to meet Gloria's invitation—Elena felt sick to her stomach.
It seemed she'd misjudged Harrison.
Harrison really wasn't worth marrying.
Elena's tears welled up in her eyes at that moment. The pain in her heart was beyond words.
She couldn't imagine that Harrison, who said he wanted to marry her, would actually respond to Gloria's seduction and have sex with Gloria.
Sure enough, all men in the world were the same—all unfaithful bastards.
At this moment, Charlotte at the hotel couldn't feel Elena's sadness at all.
She called Elena and urged her over the phone, "Elena, hurry up and get here. I saw Gloria open the door for this man."
"The man went into her room, and Gloria seemed to have had quite a bit to drink. As soon as she opened the door, she threw herself at this man, and they started making out."
...
Charlotte described everything in detail, and Elena listened carefully. At Charlotte's urging, she started her car and headed to the Majestic Wave Hotel.
