Shrouded Affections Winning Back My CEO Wife

Chapter 1239:

Presley blinked in surprise, shaking her head quickly. “That wasn’t me. If anything, it was probably Colby. He has been suspicious of me, thinking I’m cheating on him with Bryan. As for why he aired his dirty laundry in public like that, I have no idea.”

Amoura’s face grew stormy. “That fool is hell-bent on driving a wedge between Eileen and Bryan, and he doesn’t even give a damn about his dignity, let alone the Deleon family’s reputation.”

No matter how much Amoura berated Colby, Presley didn’t argue back. She disliked Colby as well.

“You’re aware that Eileen and Bryan’s most capable assistant is Raymond Brooks, right?” After a pause, Amoura continued, “Stella was the one who found him. He came from a poor background, one of those bright kids Stella sponsored through school. He’s got a younger sister. Why don’t you get someone to reach out to him and see if you can dig up any information?”

“Got it.” Presley was willing to do what Amoura had asked her to do. After all, if things went south, she would simply lay the blame squarely at Amoura’s feet. That way, Bryan wouldn’t pin it on her.

Presley said, “Colby’s always watching me like a hawk. You’ll need to send a couple of your people to help me out.”

Amoura shot her a sidelong look, causing Presley to avert her eyes awkwardly. “Otherwise, I can’t make a move,” Presley added.

“Fine,” Amoura replied. “I’ll assign someone to you once we’re back.” She then closed her eyes, leaning back to rest.

Though they seemed to be working toward the same goal, each had their own intentions.

Eileen suddenly sneezed, a chill creeping up her spine. She glanced over at Bryan, who had just walked out of the bathroom, and asked, “Did Jarred mention that I went to the ladies’ gathering today?”

“He did,” Bryan replied. However, Jarred had only said that both Eileen and Stella had gone there. Bryan had learned what had happened from Jacob.

Bryan crawled into bed with his hair still damp. “Jacob had nothing but praise for you. He said you’ve got a sharp business sense and know how to handle people. Called me lucky for finding such a gem.”

Eileen laughed lightly, deciding not to bring up her request for Raymond to investigate Amoura. After all, she didn’t have any solid proof yet.

“He even went on about how Gabriela will have the same character as you,” Bryan continued. “Said if we ever have a boy, he would be more charming than me.” He wasn’t pushing Eileen to have another baby, just relaying Jacob’s words.

Jacob admired Eileen so much, and Bryan felt happy to hear him praise her.

“Not happening!” Eileen sniffed, sounding a little annoyed. “You’ve already brought me more than enough headaches.”

Now that they were married, women still came buzzing around Bryan.

Eileen had to admit, Bryan had that kind of allure. Every move he made exuded a certain nobility, a charm that was impossible to miss. Even she, who saw him every single day, sometimes found herself getting lost in his presence.
