Chapter 601:
âIf Bryan isnât well, would that make you feel okay? Donât act tough with me. Life must go on, yes, but you can share your feelings with me. If youâre sad, Iâll be by your side to comfort you. If you need to cry, just cry,â Ruby said gently, running her fingers through Eileenâs hair. âYouâve lost so much weight. Can you really just let everything go?â
Eileen couldnât simply let go, but she couldnât make herself feel aggrieved either. She had just learned to cope in her own way.
Life appeared to have returned to normal. In the morning, Eileen had Ruby watch Gabriela while she drove to Freguson Groupâs headquarters.
At a red light, the bright morning sun flooded the car. She pressed the brake, put on her sunglasses, and answered a call from Raymond.
Raymond was temporarily overseeing the project in the village. He planned to return once construction began.
He provided an update on the project.
âGot it. Find out which hospital Bryan is in. Itâs important to obtain his health report to understand whatâs wrong with him,â Eileen instructed.
Even if Bryan had lost a leg and been truly handicapped, he wouldnât have feigned amnesia to make her this angry.
Thus, the situation might be more grave and troubling than she had initially believed.
However, from the start, Jacob and Josue had withheld information from her, forcing her to investigate on her own.
âMr. Dawson has returned?â Raymond asked, surprised. âThen why am I still here?â
Raymond had agreed to stay in the village because Bryan was there. Regardless of Bryanâs memory loss, Raymond had wanted to keep Bryan company.
Get the latest gαâηÏνðâsâ¤com âEven if he hadnât returned, you wouldnât be able to help him much by being by his side anyway,â Eileen said, ending the call abruptly, her tone tinged with frustration.
Upon arriving at Freguson Group, Eileen attended a six-hour meeting.
Although she had initiated this project for Bryan, it wasnât an uninformed investment. The potential for profit was clear, so Benjamin presented the investigation results, which received unanimous approval from all shareholders.
Detailed follow-up actions were collectively agreed upon, and the meeting adjourned.
As Eileen walked out of the meeting room, she checked her phone and found a message from Raymond.
Raymond had located Bryanâs hospital and learned that a renowned international doctor had arrived the previous night specifically to oversee Bryanâs case. However, Bryanâs medical condition was complex.
Aside from Bryan and his doctor, only Josue and Jacob knew the details. Raymond had been unable to uncover more.
Eileen pressed her lips together upon hearing this and immediately called Phoebe.
âYou finally remember to call me?â Phoebeâs voice was laced with dissatisfaction. âItâs bad enough you donât talk to me, but Bryan even took Jacob away. Jacob missed our sonâs hundred-day celebration.â
âThatâs why Iâm calling to apologize. But shouldnât you hold Jacob accountable? Do you want to get even with him now?â Eileen replied.
