Shrouded Affections Winning Back My CEO Wife

Chapter 107

Chapter 107:

When Eileen returned to the shop with coffee, Aniya had already finished serving the customer and was emerging from the break room.

Seeing Eileen, Aniya paused, hurried over to take the coffee, and said to the customer, “Sorry for making you wait.”

To Eileen’s surprise, Aniya refrained from criticizing Eileen’s slowness. She raised an eyebrow as she watched Aniya hand the coffee to the customer and say goodbye.

Essie and Aniya then huddled together, whispering and casting wary glances toward Eileen.

“Eileen, a customer is waiting for you in the VIP room,” Essie declared, her arms crossed.

Startled, Eileen, leaving her clothes by the door, turned her gaze toward the VIP lounge.

“Eileen, we’ve had a healthy competition since you started here. We haven’t made it more difficult for you here, so you shouldn’t do that to us either. We’re all colleagues here. From now on, let’s support each other,” Aniya proposed, her friendliness sounding slightly strained.

Confused by their change in tone, Eileen ignored them and headed into the VIP lounge.

Essie, pulling at Aniya’s arm anxiously, whispered, “Eileen actually knows Miss Warren, the future wife of the CEO of Apex Group! What if they’re really close? What if Eileen complains about us to Miss Warren?”

“We haven’t bullied her,” Aniya reassured. She then suggested, “Let’s wait outside and listen to what they’re discussing—”

They discreetly positioned themselves outside the lounge to eavesdrop.

Inside, Eileen was taken aback to find Vivian and Megan lounging on the sofa.

Vivian beamed, pleased not only to have found Eileen but also to see her in such a humble role.

“Miss Warren, Miss Beckett,” greeted Eileen, quickly adopting a professional demeanor. “Welcome. Are you here to order?”

“I found out you worked here, so I came to see you,” Vivian responded, her posture poised and crossed.

“Thank you, Miss Warren, for your concern. I’m managing quite well here,” Eileen replied.

Megan laughed mockingly, “Eileen, surely you don’t think we came just to see you, right?”

The hostility was palpable. Eileen knew they were not there to visit her but to stir up trouble.

However, Megan didn’t seem to realize Eileen’s politeness was insincere.

After chuckling, Megan’s expression turned to irritation, and she rolled her eyes at Eileen.

Eileen just smiled again in response.

“Since we’ve come all this way, let us take a look at the gowns,” Vivian suggested, rising to peruse the haute couture gowns. She nonchalantly pointed to two dresses. “Take those two down for me to try.”

“Okay,” Eileen replied, her tone neutral, as she carefully removed the gowns from the mannequins.
