Chapter 894:

Leyla let out a snort. She then leaned towards Eileen and whispered, “Make sure you remember who these people are.”

“I will, Grandma,” Eileen replied with a slight nod.

“Eileen is no child. She’s more than capable of running the Vazquez Group. And if she makes the company suffer losses, you won’t be footing the bill!” Leyla’s confident declaration silenced the room.

Hearing Leyla say this, no one dared to speak further.

“Enjoy your meal, everyone. Then, we’ll all show this shameless couple the door,” Leyla said.

The servants then ushered everyone to their seats.

It was Eileen’s first time at a gathering like this, and to make matters worse, Leyla had seated Gianna and Conroy at their table. The table was laden with delicious dishes, but the tense atmosphere kept everyone’s appetites in check.

Bryan, however, seemed unfazed. He picked food for Gabriela and Eileen, piling food onto their plates. The food was delicious, but the awkwardness in the air made it hard for Eileen to eat comfortably.

“Eat,” Bryan urged, placing a chicken wing in her bowl.

“You’ll only hurt yourself if you starve. This is your home. Don’t mind the others. You should feel comfortable here.”

He had a point. Eileen wasn’t embarrassed anymore. She shot Bryan a look before starting to eat.

Updates always at galnoνe𝓵s.com No one else had heard Bryan’s conversation with Eileen, since Bryan had whispered. Even Maximo, sitting right next to Bryan, was too preoccupied with figuring out how to help Conroy to notice the hushed conversation. Maximo turned to Bryan with a smile.

“Mr. Conroy invited you here, right?”

“Something like that,” Bryan replied with a polite smile.

Maximo glanced around and then leaned in closer.

“You’re close to Conroy, aren’t you? Whose fault do you think this is? Conroy has dedicated two decades to the Vazquez family! And he has stayed even though Eileen isn’t his. He has been running things for the eldest daughter of the Vazquez family…”

Bryan raised an eyebrow.

“I believe you know very well why he has stayed with the Vazquez family all this time.”

“Mr. Dawson, I can’t accept that. Sure, Conroy has made mistakes, but everyone does. He’s not a saint, but he has never done anything truly bad!” Maximo said.

Bryan saw right through Maximo’s attempts to defend Conroy and wiped Gabriela’s mouth with a napkin.

Maximo wouldn’t give up.

“Mr. Dawson, is this your daughter? She’s adorable!”

“Thanks,” Bryan said. He then gestured towards Eileen.

“And that is my wife. Isn’t she stunning?”
