Chapter 960
“Then we’re still great friends! Don’t worry, your secret is safe with me. I won’t tell anyone,” Tilda exclaimed, beaming with delight.
“Deal.” Eileen extended her pinky finger, and Tilda quickly linked hers to it, sealing their promise. Then, Tilda pulled out her phone and suggested, “Let’s add each other on WhatsApp.”
“No need for that. It’s probably best if we don’t stay in touch,” Eileen said, shaking her head.
Tilda put her phone away with a displeased expression. “Never mind, I was just being courteous. I didn’t really want to do it anyway.”
She then stood up, snorted, and left. When Jessica, who had been lurking in the shadows, saw Tilda approaching, she swiftly walked over and inquired, “How did it go? Isn’t she annoying?”
“Not as annoying as you,” Tilda replied without hesitation.
Jessica’s eyes went wide with shock. “What do you mean? I only brought it up because I care about you. Why do you think I’m being annoying?”
Tilda paused for a moment before saying, “I mean, not as annoying as you said.”
“How could that be possible?” Jessica’s frustration boiled over, and she exclaimed, “She took my stuff and had the nerve to flaunt it! How infuriating!”
“Enough. I’ve made a pact with her to stay out of each other’s way,” Tilda said, then pushed Jessica away and left.
Seeing this, Jessica quickly took out her phone and called Gianna.
“Tilda is such a fool! I can’t believe she made a pact with Eileen to stay out of each other’s way. How can I use her to deal with Eileen?”

“Did she really say that?” Gianna asked in surprise.
“Would I lie to you? If you don’t believe me, stop asking me to do things for you!” Jessica hung up the phone angrily.
Gianna tossed her phone aside and pondered the situation. In truth, she didn’t want Tilda to fight with Eileen now. She just wanted a chance to contact Kamila.
After a brief pause, Gianna retrieved her phone and made a call. “Hello, Mrs. Aston. I’m glad to finally speak with you. Unfortunately, the Byrd family has double-crossed us despite our earlier collaboration. It’s clear that Conroy is to blame. I hope you’ll be able to help us.”
“You are unable to handle the matter yourself. And now, you are expecting me to take on the Kamila situation?” Mrs. Aston’s voice was sharp.
Instead of getting angry, Gianna replied calmly, “Mrs. Aston, there aren’t many people willing to assist you in dealing with Eileen at this point. Today, your daughter encountered Eileen at the stable and was bullied by her. Jessica revealed to Tilda the truth about your husband’s relationship with Eileen, yet Tilda didn’t react with anger. Instead, she chose to make peace with Eileen, agreeing to stay out of each other’s way. Who else do you think you can trust to help you navigate this situation?”
“What?” Kamila’s voice darkened. Of all things, she hadn’t expected that Tilda would not only meet up with Eileen but also make an agreement with her.
“In Alverton, the Vazquez family holds significant influence. Meanwhile, in other cities, Apex Group and EB GICLIP are forces to be reckoned with. Who else can you trust to put in the effort and be loyal to you, aside from Conroy?” Gianna tried to persuade Kamila.
