Shrouded Affections Winning Back My CEO Wife

Chapter 274

Chapter 274:

“I get what you mean. True love means no secrets, especially not about something this big.” Stella thought it over for a moment before giving her opinion. “However, from an outsider’s perspective, I really think you should wait to tell him until after you’re pregnant. That way, the joy might soften his reaction a bit.”

Her main concern was for Eileen and Bryan to have a good relationship; whether Bryan got angry at her or not wasn’t as important. As long as Eileen and Bryan were happy together, that was enough for her.

If Eileen were to tell Bryan about this now, Bryan’s unpredictable mood might spark conflict, threatening their plans to start a family.

Stella’s reasoning made sense, and Eileen resolved to reveal the truth to Bryan by the time of their wedding, pregnant or not.

“I appreciate your consideration for the Dawson family’s image in how you handle the situation with your biological mother. Once that’s resolved, I’ll set up a time for your mother and you to discuss the wedding details.” Stella laid out all the potential issues to Eileen, worried she might overlook something.

By noon, she had texted Eileen some choices for wedding venue layouts provided by the hotel, asking Eileen for her preference.

Learning Eileen had spent the morning talking with Stella, Bryan called Stella.

Whatever was discussed in the call upset Stella so much that she cursed at Bryan and left, abandoning her plan to join Eileen for lunch.

Eileen exhaled deeply and answered Bryan’s call. She should respect Stella more, considering her age; Bryan likely had insisted Stella leave.

“She did scold me, but she’s actually happy,” Bryan explained. Knowing Stella had left quickly, he guessed that Eileen had shared their plans to try for a baby soon with Stella.

Upon hearing that, Eileen felt resigned.

“Take some time to rest this afternoon. Jacob’s being discharged, and we’re having a gathering tonight,” Bryan added. He wouldn’t have suggested it unless it was necessary.

Who knew how late they would be up tonight?

After the call, Eileen joined Ruby for lunch upstairs and then went back to get some sleep.

She slept until the evening. When Bryan returned, he gently woke her with a kiss.

He was clearly in a good mood, the hint of a smile playing on his lips. Eileen, still groggy, nestled into his side. “Benita has driven them out,” Bryan said, his voice resonating gently above her.

Eileen murmured a response, having expected this after Benita’s apology.

“But they haven’t left the city yet,” Bryan added. “Raymond says they’re at a small motel.” Eileen felt that as long as they kept out of trouble and didn’t disturb her life in Onaland, she had no right to force them out of the city.

Still, she wondered about their reasons for staying.
