Shrouded Affections Winning Back My CEO Wife

Chapter 238:

Early in the morning, while in the bathroom, Eileen looked at the marks on her neck and began contemplating what to wear. She was in a dilemma. The lingering heat made choosing an outfit to cover the marks tricky since she couldn’t wear much.

Meanwhile, Bryan acted as if nothing was wrong, preparing breakfast for her. Despite her frustration, Eileen was determined not to skip a meal. She planned to eat first and pick her attire afterward. Bryan took a call from Denzel and rushed out, skipping his breakfast.

Left alone in the apartment, Eileen hastened her eating pace. Suddenly, the doorbell chimed. Eileen stood up and hurried to the door, saying, “Why are you back so soon? Did you—”

Her sentence was cut short when she saw Stella standing outside the door.

Stella’s eyes lit up upon seeing Eileen. “This brat actually lives here! I’ve been searching for him for ages.”

Eileen was only wearing one of Bryan’s shirts, which did little to hide the marks on her neck. Besides, the shirt barely reached her thighs, making it quite inappropriate for her to meet Stella looking like this. She moved aside uncomfortably and said, “Mrs. Dawson, please come in.”

“Are you having breakfast?” Stella peeked toward the dining room and said, “I’m a bit early. Did I interrupt?”

Eileen shook her head and responded, “No, not at all. Have you had breakfast?”

Stella nodded and replied, “Yes. Go ahead and continue to eat your food. Don’t mind me. I just thought I could stop by.”

As they talked, Eileen noticed two crumpled pieces of clothing in the living room. She quickly gathered them up and tucked them under a pillow.

With a flush of embarrassment, she said, “Bryan’s not here.”

“It doesn’t matter. I didn’t come here to see him anyway,” Stella responded nonchalantly.

If Stella wasn’t here for Bryan, then why was she here? Eileen wondered if Stella was here to see her. She felt a bit uneasy. “I have some work to take care of later.”

“That’s okay. I just came to check on you. I’m quite exhausted from the trip. Could I rest here for a bit before I leave?” Stella asked.

Eileen nodded. “Of course.”
