Chapter 130

Chapter 130:

She hesitated for a while before she began to delete the number.

What should her opening statement be?

If she were to make use of the opportunity of returning his coat to ask him out to discuss the tutoring matters of Milford, would he come?

Expectation bubbled up in her heart. She couldn’t tell where it came from.

Recalling the hours of the previous days spent at the club, she had watched him from the corner of her eyes.

He had spoken at length with Denzel but had not deemed it fit to spare her a glance.

That memory was an instant awakening from her daydream. She searched for Raymond’s number and called him.

“Ms. Curtis,” Raymond said as he picked up the phone. “Could you help me schedule a meeting with Mr. Dawson to discuss the tutoring of Milford? Also, inform him that he left his coat in my car,” Eileen said.

Eileen took the coat from behind her and touched it. It still had the faint smell of smoke on it.

“Well, I’ll set up a meeting for the discussion of the tutoring. As for the coat, I’m afraid you’d have to see to that yourself, as it’s a private matter. I’m driving now, so I have to go,” Raymond said as he glanced at Bryan through the rearview mirror.

After hanging up the phone, he stopped at the traffic light and asked, “Does this arrangement suit you, Mr. Dawson?”

To him, Bryan must have had Eileen in his mind to do what he had done.

“What? Do I need to praise you?” Bryan said coldly.

Raymond managed to stifle his smile and said, “No. It’s my job, after all.”

Eileen held her phone in her hand, letting it rest lightly on Bryan’s coat.

The screen of her phone reflected the confused look on her face.

Private matter? She didn’t feel the need to see Bryan privately.

She put the coat in the passenger seat and drove home.

Phoebe was surprised when she saw her drive home alone. “Where is Bailee?”

“My mom starts her electrotherapy tomorrow, so someone needs to stay with her at the hospital,” Eileen said as she sat down at the table and saw that there were various dishes. She gave Phoebe a thumbs up and said, “I didn’t expect you to be such a good cook, Miss Burton.”

“My cooking skills are okay. Don’t mock me with the title Miss Burton,” Phoebe said.

Eileen smiled, then began to eat.

“What’s the matter? Is there anything wrong?” Phoebe suddenly asked.

“How can you tell?” Eileen asked, surprised.

“You are frowning. Since we got here, everything has been going well except for the occasional melancholy at night. What then could put you in this mood?” Phoebe said.
