Chapter 1008
Even when she needed to do a lip mask at night, it didn’t seem to matter to him.
That was why she had stopped using this lip balm, leaving it untouched for quite some time.
Eileen gripped Bryan’s collar tightly as he breathed heavily against her.
Suddenly coming back to her senses, Eileen pushed him away, whispering urgently, “Julio is here!”
However, when Julio slowly descended the stairs with one hand casually in his pocket, he immediately recognized Bryan’s car.
He didn’t say a word. He simply changed direction and drove off.
He did send Eileen a text, though, reminding her, “Reporters are nearby. Aren’t you worried about being on the news for this?”
The sound of the text notification echoed clearly in the quiet car.
Eileen took a deep breath to calm herself before replying, “It’s perfectly legal for me to be with Bryan, okay?”
Bryan drove Eileen straight back to the Vazquez Mansion. When they arrived, it was time for dinner, and Gabriela and Leyla were waiting for them at the table.
The moment Jaliyah returned home, she informed Kamila about Keith’s public praise for Eileen.
Kamila frowned, clearly upset. She didn’t like how Jaliyah was disrespecting Keith, and she was also frustrated with Eileen, who seemed to be constantly around her family members.

“Enough of this,” she snapped. “If you can give birth to a son soon, you can definitely win Keith’s favor.” Kamila then headed upstairs.
As she passed Keith’s study, she paused and cracked the door open. Through the small gap, she saw him sitting at his desk, staring blankly at the drawer on his left.
She clenched her teeth in frustration and returned to her bedroom. Pulling out her phone, she dialed Chana’s number and said, “Mrs. Brown, you mentioned before that you liked Eileen. I know you’ve seen her several times recently. Why aren’t you planning to have your son marry her?”
“That woman is arrogant and overly ambitious. I’m concerned she might try to dominate the Brown family if she marries my son,” Chana replied, having mulled it over and decided against the idea of letting Eileen marry her son.
Kamila said without hesitation, “Once she’s part of your family, she won’t have the power to control the political or business arenas. You can persuade her to sell her shares first. With so much money but no power, she’ll have to depend on the Brown family. You won’t need to worry she’ll take over your family then.”
Without the vast resources of companies like EB Group and Apex Group, if Eileen entered the political arena, she wouldn’t be able to run her business, and it would be…
It would be difficult for her to advance in the political field. She would have no choice but to comply with Chana’s demands.
Chana wasn’t easily fooled. She asked directly, “We aren’t close, so why have you suddenly brought up the Vazquez family’s granddaughter and urged me to go ahead with an old marriage arrangement? What’s your intention?”
“Mrs. Brown, since you asked me this, I’ll tell you everything you need to know. Eileen isn’t actually Conroy’s daughter. She’s the illegitimate child of my husband and Dottie. I’m worried that she’ll come to my family and take away everything that rightfully belongs to my son.” Kamila understood that if she wanted to work with Chana, she had to be completely honest.
