Chapter 1010:

“Go back to sleep. I’ll handle it,” Bryan said, standing up barefoot and grabbing a clean pair of underpants from the cabinet to put on.

The sight caught Eileen’s attention, and her lingering sense of reason made her quickly say, “No, we have to keep up the act from before. If Chana discovers we lied, she’ll definitely get tough.”

“But you’re not in any shape to continue the act, are you?” Bryan said, glancing at her slender legs.

Even though she hadn’t yet left the bed, he knew full well that if she did, her legs would probably be wobbly.

“This is all your fault. Help me up,” Eileen grumbled.

Bryan chuckled slightly. He walked over and lifted her, then carried her to the bathroom so that she could freshen up and change her clothes.

Luckily, when Eileen entered the living room, Chana was seated. Leyla and Gabriela were in the back garden. Without hesitation, Eileen took a seat and said, “Mrs. Brown, I almost thought you weren’t coming. It has been days, and I haven’t heard a word from you.”

“Where’s your grandmother? I’m here to discuss your marriage to Benicio,” Chana said.

Eileen glanced toward the backyard before replying, “She’s not in a position to see guests right now. You can speak with me instead. How much are you offering for the marriage gift? Have you arranged the car and house for our marriage yet?”

Before coming here, Chana had already guessed that Eileen might take the initiative to ask for things.

Eileen smiled and quickly added, “Mind if I say something first? I’m not keen on living with the in-laws.”

“You’re aware of Benicio’s condition. How do you expect to care for him alone? The servants at the Brown family’s mansion have been tending to him ever since his accident. They know his needs inside out, so he can’t move out,” Chana replied sharply.

Eileen said without hesitation, “In that case, you can move out instead. The Brown family’s servants are well-trained in caring for Benicio. You can bring a few with you to your new place.”

Chana had dealt with many difficult people before, but she hadn’t expected to meet someone as shameless as Eileen.

She was completely stunned by Eileen’s words.

“Eileen, don’t you think you’re pushing your luck and overestimating yourself?” Chana finally snapped. “You’ve been married and already had a child. My Benicio hasn’t even married yet. What makes you think I’d agree to such demands?”

“If you’re going to be that blunt, then I won’t bother being polite, either.” Eileen shot a quick glance toward the door.

Outside, under the eaves, Bryan stood tall and composed. Despite his aura, the memory of Chana’s last encounter with Bryan was still fresh, leaving her with the impression that only a faint trace of Bryan’s graceful demeanor remained.

Eileen continued, “I can divorce a man like him whenever I please. If you’re not offering me anything worthwhile, why should I marry Benicio? It’s your Brown family that holds the power, not Benicio. And let’s be clear—you’re interested in me, not the Vazquez family.” Eileen leaned back against the sofa, crossing her arms with an air of authority.
