Chapter 106:

“What’s wrong?” Bryan’s intense gaze met Eileen’s as if asking.

“Aren’t you interested in making money?”

Even though Eileen had grown accustomed to Bryan’s sarcastic looks and tones, each instance still caused her heart to ache.

She replied in a hushed tone, “Nothing. I’ll go shopping tomorrow.”

Bryan shrugged off his coat and loosened his tie. He explained, “I had a work meeting nearby. It’s late, so I figured I’d crash here for the night. Nothing more.”

“Okay,” Eileen replied, stepping closer to Bryan to remove his tie. He could feel her cool fingers graze his chest through his shirt.

After that, Eileen said, “I’ll prepare a bath for you.” She draped the tie over the sofa before heading upstairs.

Her bedroom boasted an attached bathroom, spacious and equipped with a sizable tub.

Filling the tub with clear, warm water, she ensured everything was okay before leaving Bryan to his privacy.

Bryan had claimed he was here only for sleep, and indeed, it was just that. He lay on the bed, his chest bare, holding her close with his sturdy arms.

Throughout the night, he held her in that embrace without shifting once.

Eileen dared not move, fearing any gesture might be misinterpreted as an attempt to seduce, inviting his potential mockery in return.

Her body remained tense, and she wasn’t able to fall asleep until late into the night. Exhaustion overpowered her, and she drifted into sleep.

At five in the morning, Bryan’s phone abruptly broke the silence of the room with its ringing.

Bryan swiftly reached for it, dismissing the call decisively. It was from Vivian.

Frowning, he muted the phone and put it aside.

Upon turning back, he noticed Eileen, her brow slightly furrowed, had shifted in his embrace, her nose against his chest.

Her warm breath gently caressed his skin, stirring a primal urge within him.

But he chose to endure the discomfort.

It was unusual to see her sleeping so deeply, her delicate skin exposed. Perhaps due to recent fatigue, a small pimple had appeared on her chin.

Her long, curly eyelashes fluttered softly, framing her petite nose and cherry-red lips.
