Chapter 760: Chapter 760

Chapter 760:

“Why are you still eating?” Jessica said sharply. “Miss Dawson has left. You’re here to take care of her, not to dine!”

“Even if she’s here to look after the baby, she needs to eat,” Raymond interjected as he tended to Gabriela. He was tempted to reveal Eileen’s true identity and shock them all. Conroy offered a strained smile and commented, “Mr. Brooks, you’re very thoughtful. It’s just that Eileen is from our company’s executive department. We’re concerned she might not make Mr. Dawson satisfied with her work here. Her entire focus should be on the baby.”

“Do you mean I should leave the table as soon as the baby is full?” Eileen asked tentatively.

Without hesitation, Jessica replied, “Of course. You’re here for the child. You should follow wherever the child goes!”

Eileen had nearly finished her meal anyway. Seeing Bryan’s expression darken, she subtly kicked him under the table. She then set down her utensils, stood up, and walked to the living room with Gabriela.

Despite this, Jessica’s animosity towards Eileen persisted. Jessica could see Gabriela demonstrate her affection for Eileen by hugging her and kissing her, treating her as if she were her mother.

Determined to drive Eileen away, Jessica set down her utensils and announced, “I’m full. Enjoy your meal. I’m going to the living room.”

She stood up and walked into the living room, pausing to watch Gabriela play by the floor-to-ceiling window. She then scanned the room, her gaze eventually landing on Eileen’s bag by the porch.

Since Eileen and Bryan had only recently moved in, there were few personal items around. A man’s briefcase and a woman’s handbag were near the door. Two down jackets and a woolen overcoat were hanging in the entryway. Bryan’s wallet was on the cabinet by the door.

New updates in g𝓪lησvℯ𝓵s․com Jessica glanced at Eileen, who was deeply engaged in playing with Gabriela, before turning away and walking toward the door. The primary reason for Bryan hosting Conroy and Jessica for dinner today was to express gratitude to Conroy for assisting him in finding a place to live.

Conroy felt uneasy around Eileen, and after having his fill of food and drink, he was ready to leave. However, Jessica suddenly said, “Eileen, hand over your company ID badge for now. You can retrieve it when you return to work.”

“Okay.” Eileen stood, walked to the entryway, searched her bag, and handed the ID badge to Jessica.

Jessica took the badge, squeezed it twice, and frowned, asking, “Did you put something inside?”

Eileen shook her head. “No.”

“Don’t lie,” Jessica retorted, opening the badge. “There’s something in here.”

She then extracted a black card hidden between the layers of the ID badge. The card, a symbol of status and wealth, was not something an ordinary person would possess—especially not someone like Eileen.

Eileen instantly recognized it as the secondary card linked to her main account. The card belonged to Bryan. Her primary card was safely in her wallet. Within seconds, she seemed to grasp the situation and met Jessica’s gaze. “A black card?” Jessica toyed with the card, appearing astonished.
