Chapter 40
Chapter 40:
The car was enveloped in silence as Bryan reclined in his seat, seemingly asleep. Despite the car stopping at several red lights, he remained motionless, not even opening his eyes.
However, when they approached the junction leading either to Eileen’s home or his apartment, he unexpectedly instructed, “Head to your place.”
Eileen didn’t hesitate. She pressed the gas pedal and steered towards Springvale Lane, which caught Bryan off guard. He had half-expected her to refuse him. After they arrived and changed, Bryan encircled Eileen’s wrist with his arm. His voice was low and inviting. “How about we shower together?”
“That’s not really convenient,” Eileen said, only to be met with Bryan’s quizzical look, his raised eyebrow silently questioning her words.
Before Eileen could clarify, her phone interrupted them with a call from Huey.
Bryan released her and headed for the bathroom to shower.
“You’re truly a lifesaver, Eileen!” Huey’s voice buzzed through the phone, full of excitement.
Eileen, standing near the French windows, couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow at his enthusiasm. “What’s happening?”
Huey’s excitement was palpable, even over the phone. “I told my mom I’d quit gaming if I lost the match. Not showing up would have meant an automatic loss. But after she learned I got injured because of you, she assumed we were close and was thrilled. She’s agreed to let me keep gaming as long as you’re okay with it. Eileen, as long as you stay single, continue this little act with me. Just two more years, and I swear I’ll take this game global!”
With hopes for his future success, Huey believed his parents would eventually see his passion not as a waste of time but as a legitimate pursuit.
His upbeat demeanor had a contagious effect on Eileen. She was glad to hear that even though Huey had missed the competition, his gaming career could proceed without hindrance.
“I see. How’s your injury now?” Eileen inquired.
