Chapter 1081:
Keith, upon hearing this, cast a glance at the door before heading back with his suitcase.
Harrell approached Kamila and asked, âMom, are you really going to make this compromise? From what Dad said, if he finds out that Eileen is his biological child, heâll probably give her the family fortune. Wonât we be able to keep this secret from him for long?â
âThen we need to get rid of Eileen before your father finds out the truth,â Kamila said coldly.
She then turned and pulled Harrell into a corner, whispering, âGo get Jaliyah back right now. There are matters that we canât handle publicly.â
After a night, Eileen felt more relieved, her fear of having been kidnapped dissipating. However, the scandal involving the Aston family was blazing across the internet once more.
Out of nowhere, a swarm of paid trolls began posting, claiming that Eileen was a jinx and discussing the whole story of Dottie and Keith.
A video posted just ten minutes ago by Jaliyah had stirred the situation. In the video, Jaliyah played it smart. She cleverly avoided mentioning Eileen directly, but her words clearly referenced Keith. It seemed that despite all these years, Keith still hadnât been able to let go of his feelings for Dottie. As a result, Jaliyahâs mother-in-law had been treated unfairly.
Now, it was clear that Eileen didnât hold as much importance to Keith as Dottie did.
On top of everything, numerous pictures of Keith and Eileen were circulating online. The images of these two, who were supposedly ârelatedâ by blood, interacting so warmly together made for quite a heartwarming scene. Keith had shared such a close bond with Dottie like this.
The hateful comments from netizens on the video suggested that Eileen was trying to exploit her connection with Dottie to get close to Keith, hoping to stabilize the VQ Groupâs situation quickly.
Get lost in stories on gⱯlnÏνðâsï¹ð¬ð¸ð¶ âI have a husband. Why would I need anyone else to help stabilize the VQ Group?â Eileen angrily commented, trying to defend herself.
However, her comment was quickly buried under a flood of other remarks. Occasionally, a few responses countered her claims.
âYou have three husbands?â Bryan asked, standing beside the bed. âI havenât heard you refer to me as such. I thought you didnât have a husband.â
Eileen was momentarily stunned, but then she stood up and retorted, âI did that once.â
Bryan raised an eyebrow. âOnly once? No wonder people think youâd turn to someone else to stabilize the VQ Group.â
It was clear that he was complaining now.
âSo, are you saying youâre not important to me?â Eileen asked. She got out of bed, helped him adjust his shirt, and lightly brushed her fingertips across his chest. âCan I just get rid of you then?â
Bryan suddenly wrapped his arms around her waist, his deep eyes filled with discontent. âDo you want to try?â
âBryan, I want to go back to Onaland,â Eileen said softly. After fastening the last button on his shirt, she wrapped her arms around his neck and leaned against his strong chest.
She had come to Alverton thinking it was just about returning to her family. She hadnât anticipated that she would encounter so many problems.
