Chapter 147:
“What do you mean?” Denzel shook his head, a puzzled frown on his face. “But I do feel like something is off.”
“It’s Mr. Dawson. Will he let someone he barely knows give him a ride home?” Ryann said. “And I’m betting Dawson is at tonight’s dinner for Ms. Curtis. Those two have a rather unique relationship!”
Denzel paused, uncertainty clouding his features, then asked, “Why’s that?”
“Didn’t you notice how Mr. Dawson took his eyes off Ms. Curtis? It was like he was glued to her,” Ryann said as she ushered Denzel inside.
Denzel took the towel offered by a servant and gently dried Ryann’s face. “What are you getting at?”
“I bet it was Ms. Curtis who left that mark on Mr. Dawson’s wrist!” Ryann’s tone grew impatient yet explanatory. “Ms. Curtis is Mr. Dawson’s woman, Denzel. Don’t try to get close to her.”
“So, sending that invite wasn’t a mix-up? You meant to bring Mr. Dawson and Ms. Curtis together tonight?” Denzel’s voice carried a hint of realization.
Ryann nodded, her impatience evident as she reiterated her point to Denzel, who finally seemed to grasp the full picture.
The soft patter of misty rain drummed against the car windows. There was only silence inside the car.
Eileen drove as quickly as she could, eager to get Bryan and Milford home.
Upon reaching the gates of the villa, she opened her mouth to speak but was interrupted as Milford flung open the car door and dashed out. Her eyes widened in surprise, following Milford’s retreat. Then, she turned to look at Bryan, who remained seated beside her.

Eileen started to say something, then turned to watch Milford.
Milford hurried to the door, leaving her alone in the car with Bryan.
Eileen wondered why Bryan hadn’t exited the car yet.
She stole a glance at him, then quickly averted her eyes.
“Mr. Dawson, we’ve arrived,” she said.
“So? Are you trying to avoid me or something?” Bryan turned and leaned casually against the door, adjusting his posture to face her.
Eileen offered an awkward smile and shook her head.
“Of course not, I just—”
“That’s good. Because avoiding me isn’t an option,” Bryan interjected, smirking as he adjusted his tie.
Yet, he made no move to leave the car.
Eileen had been waiting for a long time, and yet Bryan remained seated in the car. “It’s still drizzling. There’s an umbrella in the trunk. I’ll grab it for you,” she eventually said.
It seemed worthwhile to hand him the umbrella and send him on his way.
“You’re lying,” Bryan countered abruptly.
At his words, Eileen stopped her move to unbuckle her seatbelt.
She turned to face him and retorted, “I’m not lying. I did this for your sake; I wanted to give you the umbrella because I didn’t want you to get soaked, Mr. Dawson.”
