Shrouded Affections Winning Back My CEO Wife

Chapter 328:

Eileen felt Bryan’s growing dislike for Zola had turned into outright hatred.

“After the accident involving Vivian, Kian suggested I marry Vivian to provide her with a comfortable life,” Benjamin said with a forced smile. “It seems they always treat us like we’re just pawns.”

When Vivian had been in good health, she would often command Benjamin with a cold attitude.

Kian had not said anything about it. Indeed, when Benjamin had begun working at the company and started helping Vivian with certain duties quietly, Kian had even warned him.

“Let go of any silly ideas you have. Vivian is the Warren family’s daughter. Don’t get any ideas. If I find you with any inappropriate thoughts, I won’t hesitate to take action,” Kian had said.

At that time, Benjamin had thought the situation was ridiculously funny. He had only helped because he feared Vivian’s complaints, not because of any real fondness for her.

The elevator doors opened. Looking at Benjamin’s somber face, Eileen couldn’t help but laugh.

“My previous words still stand,” Benjamin said, removing his hand from his pocket. “We are suitable for each other.”

“I have something I can’t tell you right now,” Eileen hesitated, then met his gaze with a serious expression. “But soon, you’ll see why we’re not meant to be. I’m not the right one for you.”

She had been with Bryan for many years, and now, with a child involved, she felt even less deserving of Benjamin’s love.

Benjamin understood she was rejecting him and didn’t insist further. “Then here’s to working well together in the future,” he said.

“Sure,” Eileen replied with a smile and then exited the building.

Once Eileen arrived home, she planned to talk with Bailee about the new secretary and review the resume.

“Has Bailee not returned yet?” She removed her shoes in the entryway and noticed only Milford doing his homework next to Gabriela’s baby carriage.

Milford looked up and pointed upstairs, “She’s upstairs. She actually came back early and has been in her room since.”

“Really?” Eileen looked up the staircase as she took down her bag. Just as she was about to go upstairs, Ruby pulled her aside.

With her hands still wet from washing, Ruby quickly let go of Eileen and wiped her hands on her clothes. She looked worried. “Eileen, something’s not right with Bailee. Could you please talk to her? She won’t talk to me about it!”

“Don’t worry. She’s probably just exhausted from the job fair,” Eileen reassured Ruby. “You meet all kinds of people there.”

“I think it’s more than that. You should go and ask her,” Ruby urged, nudging Eileen toward the stairs. “Try to get her to come down for dinner.”

Eileen nodded, understanding Ruby’s concern. “Alright. Mom, you start making dinner. I’ll take care of this.”

Eileen, with a plate of fruit in hand, walked up the stairs and gently knocked on Bailee’s door.
