Chapter 338

Chapter 338:

Eileen was in a meeting when her phone buzzed. She glanced down and saw there were messages from Josue. After a brief moment of hesitation, she clicked on the messages.

She saw several photos sent by Josue, capturing Bryan’s anxious face.

In Bryan’s arms, Gabriela stared at him with wide, confused eyes, seemingly startled yet not crying.

A slight smile appeared on Eileen’s face. Then, Josue sent another message that caught her off guard and tugged at her heartstrings.

“I forgot to mention, on the day you gave birth overseas, Bryan was at the hospital. He was the first to hold Gabriela. It must be fate.”

So, Bryan had been at the hospital that day? And he had held Gabriela!

“Ms. Curtis…” someone called out to Eileen, snapping her back to reality. She quickly set her phone down and looked up to see everyone in the meeting room staring at her.

With composure, she placed the document she was holding on the table and asked, “Could you repeat that?”

Everyone was momentarily stunned.

Josue had arranged for Bryan to work in a villa within the same neighborhood as Eileen. The villa was three stories, with its living room transformed into an office area.

Long rectangular tables were set up, adorned with several potted plants, and chairs lined up on both sides.

At the end of the room, there was a projector, giving the space a very professional look.

The only thing that broke the professional ambiance was the occasional sound of Gabriela echoing through the quiet villa.

She still couldn’t speak; her noises came not from her mouth but from her nasal passages.

Josue cradled her on the sofa, her large dark eyes roving around, mostly settling on Bryan.

Bryan sat at the head of the table, listening to people report on the progress of EB Group’s matters.

They were just waiting to offload the Warren Group’s shares and recover the funds.

“From what I’ve gathered, Ms. Curtis from Ferguson Group has already begun negotiations for the acquisition. It’s practically sealed.”

“If I recall correctly, Ms. Curtis was mentored by Mr. Dawson. Mr. Dawson’s guidance is really remarkable.”

“Yes, it’s unfortunate we didn’t move quicker. If we had brought Ms. Curtis, the general of EB Group, to collaborate with Mr. Dawson, EB Group would have reached new heights.”

Suddenly, a muffled laugh broke through their serious discussion.

Everyone turned to see Josue cradling the baby with one hand and covering his mouth with the other, his cheeks red as he suppressed his laughter.
