Shrouded Affections Winning Back My CEO Wife

Chapter 127

Chapter 127:

Raymond sighed resignedly. “She left. She asked me to arrange your schedule and talk with her at the educational institution.”

Bryan frowned slightly. After a long silence, he nodded. “She has quite the temper now. Get me the receipt from the educational institution.”

“Mr. Dawson, forgive my impertinence, but I’m genuinely curious as to why you are doing this,” Raymond said hesitantly, for he couldn’t understand Bryan’s intentions toward Eileen.

Bryan arched an eyebrow and looked at Raymond. “Why do you care?”

“I’m just thinking that when Ms. Curtis left, she didn’t do anything to upset you or betray the company in any way. What you are doing to her now is probably a bit…”

Raymond implied that what Bryan was doing was a bit out of line.

“Yes, she didn’t,” Bryan sneered. “I just want to make things difficult for her because I’m a despicable person. It’s as simple as that.”

Raymond was taken aback by his words.

After a moment, he turned to retrieve the receipt and gave it to Bryan.

In the evening, Eileen went to Denzel’s house to tutor his child.

Seeing Eileen constantly sneezing and coughing loudly, Denzel instructed the servant to bring Eileen a glass of warm water.

“It’s warm outside. How come you’ve caught a cold?” he asked.

“Milford poured a bucket of ice water on me yesterday when I went to tutor him,” Eileen explained. “Sorry. I won’t let it affect the class. Besides, wearing a mask, your child won’t be infected.”

She hadn’t removed her mask since she stepped into the room.

Denzel’s eyes widened before a frown lined his forehead. “That child is uncontrollable. I reckon you won’t be able to handle it even if you go there tomorrow. Maybe you should request a day off and rest tomorrow. I’m meeting his sister’s friend at a club tomorrow night. I’ll talk to him. I’m sure he will agree to give you a day off.”

“Thank you, Vance. I already spoke to him and temporarily suspended Milford’s tutoring sessions. We’ll discuss it further when we have the opportunity and then resume the lessons.” Eileen smiled gratefully. Then, she excused herself and went upstairs.

Eileen had planned to accompany Bailee to the hospital on Friday evening since Milford’s tutoring session had been suspended.

However, before she could go to the hospital, Raymond called her.

“Ms. Curtis, my boss will be going to Circus Night Club for a business meeting. He wants you to come over and discuss Milford’s tutoring then,” Raymond said.

“Do you usually discuss business over drinks? How can we discuss Milford’s tutoring after drinking? Your boss would be drunk,” Eileen countered. “I’d prefer for him to meet me at the institution.”

After a moment’s hesitation, Raymond said, “The receipt you provided clearly states you will refund the full amount if the student doesn’t show significant improvement within a month.”

A week had passed. Eileen hadn’t been able to teach Milford anything.

“Except in cases of unforeseen circumstances,” Eileen reminded him.
