Chapter 16
Chapter 16:
Eileen stood out among her colleagues, her height and slim figure drawing attention. Once she had ensured everyone was aboard the bus, she approached Bryan. “Dawson, everyone’s settled in. There are a couple of vacant seats at the front. Will you be taking the bus, or…?”
She had noticed a few high-end vehicles parked close by, likely owned by Kian and Jacob. It seemed improbable that they would prefer the bus over their luxurious cars.
This observation led her to appreciate Bryan’s grounded nature despite his status. Bryan promptly said, “I’ll join you on the bus.” He then turned to Kian and the others, saying, “What about you? Will you ride the bus or drive?”
Kian looked toward Vivian, considering that Bryan’s choice to take the bus might influence her preference. However, he knew the bus’s environment wouldn’t match the comfort of his own car. He suggested, “Perhaps you and Vivian should go there in my car. Or maybe Miss Curtis could drive you both.”
Eileen waited quietly, ready to adapt to the proposed plans, her gaze shifting to Bryan for direction. However, Vivian quickly interjected, “It’s unfair to ask Eileen to drive for that long. She’s here to enjoy herself, just like everyone else. Kian, you’re not being thoughtful.”
After making her point, Vivian turned to Eileen with a friendly smile and then moved closer to Bryan, linking her arm with his. “You can drive me, Eileen. You can take the bus with the others,” she said.
Bryan frowned at Vivian’s words, but he remained silent. Jacob couldn’t resist a jest. “Vivian, it’s not Miss Curtis you’re worried about; you just want Bryan all to yourself for a few hours. Remember to control yourselves, okay?”
Vivian’s cheeks turned pink with embarrassment, and she sought refuge behind Bryan, casting a sharp look at Jacob. “See? I’m right!” Jacob stopped himself from teasing Vivian further when Kian fixed him with a stern look. He then turned to Eileen, chuckling, “What are you waiting for, Eileen? Time to get on the bus.”
With a strained smile, Eileen responded, “Okay.” She then made her way onto the bus. The bus started but abruptly halted just a short distance later.

Standing from her seat at the front, Eileen approached the driver to inquire about the issue. “What’s going on?” At that moment, the door opened, and to Eileen’s surprise, Bryan stepped onto the bus, taking the seat beside hers. His gaze held a silent intensity that unsettled her.
