Chapter 745:
Kinsey cut her off, saying to Eileen, âCome with me.â
âOkay,â Eileen replied. She signaled for Lenny to go without her and then followed Kinsey to the balcony outside the canteen.
âWhat are you doing here?â Kinsey asked Eileen, his hands casually stuffed in his pockets.
After a long pause, Eileen, standing before him, said, âIâm your cousin, and I believe you should show me some respect.â
Kinsey appeared puzzled and stared at her.
âWhatâs with your attitude?â
Eileen shot a look at him. âJust because you have a higher position in the company doesnât mean you can disregard our family relationship. Do you really think Iâd hesitate to tell the whole company that youâre my cousin?â
âDonât do that!â Kinsey blurted out, glaring at her. âIâve already told you that our relationship must remain private within the company.â
Eileen raised an eyebrow and asked, âIf you want our relationship hidden, why did you ask me to come here with you?â
Kinsey glanced towards the canteen and inquired, âWhat are you doing here?â
Eileen was momentarily speechless. She realized that his question about her being at VQ Group the previous night was because he had intended to come here today. She understood that Bryan had likely come here for her. However, Bryan surely hadnât anticipated that his visit would make her unable to have lunch here.
âItâs lunchtime. Do I need to remind you again?â Eileen responded to Kinsey.

Eileen accepted the money and said, âWhy are you letting the important client eat in the canteen? Why donât you take the client to a nice restaurant?â
âItâs what the client requested,â Kinsey replied, feeling that the conversation was dragging. He added, âStop asking so many questions. You canât know anything about the matter.â
âI donât know much, but Iâm curious about one thing,â Eileen said, tucking the cash into her bag. âWhy canât I dine here while youâre entertaining the client?â
Not wanting to elaborate further now that Eileen had accepted the money, Kinsey said, âJust hurry up and leave. I have important matters to attend to.â
He then turned and walked back into the canteen.
After a moment of contemplation, Eileen left the balcony. Just as she was deciding where to go, a message from Lenny popped up on her phone.
âIâve reserved a spot for you. Join me! Itâs quite the visual treat today.â
A treat? Bryanâs presence here had clearly attracted attention. Bryan had even brought Gabriela with him. Gabriela was asleep, snugly cradled in his arms. Yet, the crowd seemed more focused on Bryanâs appearance, barely acknowledging the baby in his arms.
Eileen entered the canteen, surveyed the surroundings, and made her way to Lenny, who was seated at a table adjacent to Bryanâs.
Lenny had intentionally chosen this table to be near Kinsey. She waved enthusiastically as Eileen approached.
