Chapter 1224:
Presley stood there, gazing at the door, lost in thought.
Eileen found herself grounded.
It had been several days since she last spent twith Gabriela, as she had been preoccupied with causing
trouble for the Deleon Group. Deep down, she knew that Bryan had used that as an excuse. He grounded her
because she hadn't spent enough twith him.
However, given how busy she had been lately, Eileen felt uneasy about her actions and decided to stay at home,
acknowledging her fault.
After all, she had just snatched a project from the Deleon Group, leaving Amoura humiliated. Now, she was
simply waiting to see what move the Deleon Group would make next.
“The weather's turning cold. It’s twe get Gabriela swarmer clothes,” Ruby said as she put away
Gabriela’s things. She added, “Since you're stuck at hwith nothing pressing, we can also spend stime

“No, Raymond's coming to pick it up,” Bryan replied, giving her a once-over. Seeing his wife during the day was
rare, so he had no plans of leaving the house.
Eileen quickly sensed something was off. She said, “Raymond’s got enough on his plate. Don’t trouble him—why
not drop it off yourself?”
“No,” Bryan said, his voice firm as he placed his large hand on her waist and gently nudged her toward the
bedroom. Eileen sped up, putting sdistance between them as she darted into the dressing room. “I'm taking
my mom and grandma out for a bit. We're going to shop for snew clothes for Gabriela.”
So, it didn’t really matter if Raymond cto get the document or not. She couldn't be by Bryan's side anyway.
Though Bryan's expression darkened, he just said, “Don’t walk around too much, or your legs might get weak.”
“Alright,” Eileen replied, though she had a feeling that her legs would indeed feel weak later, but it wouldn't be
from walking.
She hurriedly finished changing and, as she walked toward the door, found Bryan leaning against the wall near it,
watching her with a look of dissatisfaction.
She stood on her tiptoes and planted a kiss on his cheek. “I'll be back soon, | promise.”
