Shrouded Affections Winning Back My CEO Wife

Chapter 233:

Even though everyone knew that Brandon had issues with Bryan, the media had refrained from reporting the news. Now, taking center stage to hold a press conference about the brewing tensions between him and Bryan, reporters had flocked in, eager to capture every moment. Lydia now found herself bombarded with sharp questions from the press.

A female reporter boldly raised her arm, catching Lydia’s attention. “Excuse me, Mrs. Dawson. Allow me to ask a daring question. Murray standing beside you is rumored to be the chosen wife for Bryan Dawson. Can you enlighten us on when we can expect to hear wedding bells?”

Before Lydia could respond, another reporter seized the moment, firing off another question. “It’s been speculated that your husband intended to sever all ties with his son Bryan due to Bryan’s romantic involvement with a certain woman. Now that they appear to be on better terms, is it because Bryan ended his relationship with that woman, or is it because he’s set to marry Miss Murray?”

This second question sought to uncover the underlying reason behind the reconciliation between Bryan and Brandon. As the spotlight shifted back to Lydia, she glanced at Zola, carefully choosing her words. “My husband holds a deep affection for Zola, who has grown up in our home. He has raised her as his own and is discerning when it comes to her future spouse. While Zola and Bryan share a close friendship, we won’t impose any decisions upon them. Bryan has no shortage of admirers, and we trust he will find a suitable match.”

After all, Zola was merely a person who had been raised within the confines of the Dawson family, and there were countless eligible daughters of affluent households vying for Bryan’s attention. With a deft maneuver, Lydia had deflected any direct mention of Eileen, subtly implying that Bryan would not be forced to marry Zola.

The affluent families eager to secure prestigious marriages for their daughters wasted no time in strategizing. Lydia’s words were a clear signal that Brandon had no qualms about Bryan’s marital choices and that the rift between Brandon and Bryan had been resolved. It felt like an open invitation for women vying for Bryan’s affection.
