Shrouded Affections Winning Back My CEO Wife

Chapter 809:

“It’s already midnight.” Bryan’s voice, soft but firm, filtered through the crack in the door. “You should get some rest now. Make the phone calls tomorrow.”

Eileen, still riding the high of catching the adulterer, felt as alert as if she had just had her morning coffee. She wasn’t sleepy at all, but she accepted Bryan’s advice, powered off her phone, and retreated to her room. Yet, despite her best efforts to drift into sleep, she tossed and turned restlessly.

By the time morning rolled around, the moment her eyes fluttered open, Eileen called Ruby. Bailee and Huey had packed up and moved out of the Baker family home, with Ruby taking up residence just across the street from their place. Between their hectic work schedules, Ruby had slipped seamlessly into the role of their chef and housekeeper.

Having lived with them before, Ruby knew the drill and had planned accordingly. She always just left after cleaning the table.

Ruby sighed, her concern hanging heavy in the air. “Bailee’s been married all this time, and still no sign of a baby. I’ve asked her more than once, and she tells me she hasn’t used protection. Do you think something might be wrong with her or Huey’s health?”

“They’re both swamped with work. Maybe it’s just the stress and the fact they’ve been married for so long. Maybe you should give them a little more time,” Eileen replied, thinking perhaps Bailee and Huey were still enjoying their honeymoon phase, but she didn’t want Ruby to know that.
