Shrouded Affections Winning Back My CEO Wife

Chapter 184

Chapter 184:

Bryan grasped Eileen’s hand and headed directly for the store, declaring firmly, “I’ll go there with you.” He was holding her hand tightly, clearly wanting to spend more time with Eileen.

Their trip to the store was brief. They were in and out within five minutes. Eileen then retrieved the breakfast from the car and prepared to leave. Bryan’s emotions fluctuated dramatically, and the initial joy had dissipated quickly.

Upon entering the in-patient department, Eileen turned around to see that Bryan was still standing by the car.

Her heart felt as if it were brimming with sweetness. She was still smiling when she returned to the ward. After placing the breakfast on the table, Bailee glanced at it and immediately recognized that it had been bought outside the hospital. Furthermore, it must’ve been purchased from somewhere far away. She believed she already knew who had brought it here.

Milford was already awake by the time Eileen handed him the toiletries. She said to him, “Go freshen up. Breakfast is ready.”

“Got it,” Milford responded, taking the items and disappearing into the bathroom, where the sound of running water soon filled the air. Bailee took a seat and leaned in to whisper to Eileen, “What’s happening with this boy?” Her voice was barely audible.

“He’s just going through a rebellious phase. It’s nothing serious. I plan to have a talk with him later before sending him back,” Eileen replied, deciding it was time for a serious discussion with Milford. Bailee finished her breakfast swiftly and proceeded to wash some fruit.

Meanwhile, Eileen quickly felt full, leaving Milford to finish his meal alone. “Did Bryan bring this food?” Milford inquired after swallowing a bite. Eileen was scrolling on her phone when she heard Milford; she quickly set her phone aside. “Well… He did.”

“There’s no need to be so nervous. You don’t have to lie to me. He’s aware I’m here, isn’t he?” Milford had pieced it together. He then asked, “Are you and Bryan seeing each other?”

Caught off guard, Eileen forced a smile, unable to answer. “You’re both adults; there’s no need to hide it,” Milford remarked, then put down his fork and discarded the food packaging in the trash. He added, “You’re definitely better than Zola, though.”

Hearing him mention Zola, Eileen seized the opportunity to ask a question. “Why did you run away from home?”

Bailee entered the room and noticed the ongoing conversation. She quickly set down the fruit and found an excuse to leave the room. Ruby was still asleep. Except for Ruby, only Milford and Eileen were in the ward. Milford sat on the sofa, looking out the window.

After a while, he said, “Zola wanted to find me a new tutor, but I disagreed, and we argued.”
