Chapter 1241:

“Eat breakfast before you head out,” Bryan said, aware that Eileen had an important meeting today. He had woken up early just to make breakfast for her. “Not sure if it’s a stomach issue, but keep an eye on it for now.” Bryan approached Eileen, carrying a glass of milk and some toasted bread.

Eileen accepted the breakfast. The milk was perfectly warm, and the toast wasn’t greasy at all—just the way she liked it. She finished the milk quickly and took a crunchy bite of the toast, her eyes showing surprise and contentment. Although the weather outside was chilly, she felt she was not afraid of the cold after eating.

Once she was done eating, she gave Bryan a quick kiss on the cheek when he wasn’t looking and then swiftly left the house. Bryan couldn’t help but smile.

At the EB Group, Eileen was deep into a meeting, while Raymond patiently waited for her. Suddenly, the phone in Raymond’s pocket vibrated. He frowned and paused for a second. Noticing that Eileen was engrossed in her work, he quietly stepped out of the room.

His work phone had been muted, and it was his personal phone that was buzzing. His aging parents lived in a high-end neighborhood in Onaland, arranged by him. He had hired a caretaker for them and left his private number with the caretaker, just in case. Worried that something might have happened to his parents, he quickly checked his phone, only to find out it was his sister, Luella Brooks, calling him.
