Shrouded Affections Winning Back My CEO Wife

Chapter 140

Chapter 140:

“What on earth are you doing?”

The tranquil atmosphere was shattered by an irate voice, causing Eileen to nearly drop the pen in her grasp.

Raising her head, Eileen was met with a figure swiftly approaching. Before she could react, she was seized by the collar and yanked off the sofa and onto the floor, where she was dragged a few paces, her t-shirt coming undone to reveal her slender waist.

“Shameless! You seduce my son!”

The fuming reprimand jolted Eileen back to her senses, despite the pain in her side from the fall.

Looking up, she recognized the formidable figure. “Mrs. Deleon?” Eileen was shocked.

“Mom!” Emmett quickly approached and called his mother to make her stop. Then he instinctively reached to help Eileen up.

But Mrs. Deleon forcefully yanked Emmett’s arm back, saying, “You are not to touch her!”

“What is the meaning of this?” Emmett shook off his mother’s grip, asserting, “Ms. Curtis has been working overtime to tutor me. Why are you making such a scene?”

“Is she truly tutoring you or deliberately seducing you?” Mrs. Deleon’s shrill voice reverberated through the room.

Eileen felt her heart sink under Mrs. Deleon’s disdainful gaze. Gathering her long hair, she rose and smoothed her disheveled attire.

Eileen’s once soft, casual demeanor turned cold, unsettling Emmett.

Emmett quickly said, “Mom, please cease this unreasonable behavior. I get that you don’t want me to work, but there’s no need to make things difficult for others!”

“I’m not!” Mrs. Deleon scoffed, pointing accusingly at Eileen. “Do you know who she is? She’s the woman who seduced Bryan, driving your cousin Vivian into despair!”

Emmett was stunned, his lips moving but no words coming out.

Hearing Mrs. Deleon’s words about Vivian, Eileen suddenly recalled something.

The Warren family had a distant relative who married into a different family, a living son-in-law.

Emmett and Mrs. Deleon, whose name is Karla Bryant, were actually relatives of the Warren family.

“Why aren’t you saying anything?” Mrs. Deleon glared at Eileen. “Relying on your alluring facade, you shamelessly flirt without restraint. Failing to ensnare Bryan, you’ve set your sights on my son!”

Eileen’s face paled with each scathing remark. “Mrs. Deleon, regardless of the past, my relationship with your son is purely professional.”
