Shrouded Affections Winning Back My CEO Wife

Chapter 155

Chapter 155:

Dressed in a black shirt, Bryan’s very presence seemed to put a chill in the air. Approaching with the intensity of an eagle stalking its prey, Bryan fixed his gaze on Arthur. Watching Arthur’s hand tugging at Eileen’s clothes, Bryan clenched his teeth, the tension visibly etching lines into his jaw. He reached out, grabbed Arthur by the collar, and hauled him away from Eileen.

With a quick jab to Arthur’s nose, blood erupted like a geyser. The pain sent Arthur sprawling, howling in agony, yet Bryan’s fury was far from satisfied. He raised his foot, delivering a punishing blow to Arthur’s stomach.

Eileen, coming back to her senses, felt tears welling in her eyes, warmth trickling down her cheeks. She hastily pulled her T-shirt down, desperately trying to cover herself. She could see the anger in Bryan’s eyes. The muscles in his arms spoke of the power behind his blow.

It seemed Bryan was hell-bent on delivering a crushing blow to Arthur. Eileen’s lips quivered as she whispered, “Bryan, please don’t…” Hearing that, Bryan paused and took a deep breath. Then, with a decisive shove, he sent Arthur hurtling into the swimming pool, the resulting splash painting the water a crimson hue.

Turning on his heel, Bryan grabbed Milford’s coat on the floor and draped it over Eileen’s shoulders. Then, with a firm hold, he scooped her up and made his way toward the exit. Only then did Eileen take notice of the chaos in the corridor. Jacob, Raymond, and several bodyguards bore visible injuries, while Arthur’s entourage lay scattered on the floor. In a corner, Milford lay unconscious.

“Milford…” Eileen instinctively wanted to say something. But Bryan shot her a sharp glance. “Stay quiet and mind your own business!” Silenced, Eileen shrunk in Bryan’s arms.

“You handle the aftermath here,” Bryan instructed his men sharply before stepping into the elevator. Within the confined space, the air was heavy with Bryan’s smoky scent, filling Eileen’s senses. His clenched jaw betrayed his anger.

Eileen knew she had been the one who faced the threat. She couldn’t understand why Bryan was so angry. She found herself uneasy about his demeanor.

In the car, Bryan secured her seatbelt before taking the wheel and starting the engine. The vehicle shot forward like an arrow. In just twenty minutes, they reached the Pianoforte Villas. As soon as the car halted, Eileen’s first impulse was to protest, “Why did you bring me here? I want to go!” But before she could finish, Bryan had stepped out of the car and shut the door.

The sound of the door closing sent a shiver down Eileen’s spine. When she snapped back to reality, Bryan was already opening her side of the door. He unfastened her seatbelt and, encircling her waist with his arms, lifted her effortlessly from the car.
