Chapter 496
Although surprised, Eileen stepped forward. The brief video they had just filmed would no doubt attract the attention of countless viewers once it circulated.
“We have a daughter,” Eileen said quietly.
Stella stood frozen, her gaze fixed on the couple in front of the camera. It wasn’t until Bryan motioned for Jarred to turn off the camera that Stella snapped back to reality.
“You… You have a daughter?” Stella stammered. Tears welled up in her eyes as she stared at Eileen and Bryan, her face a mix of disbelief and emotion.
Eileen turned toward Stella and gave a slight nod. “I’m sorry for not telling you sooner. Our daughter is five months old now.”
As Stella pieced together the timeline, she realized why Eileen had disappeared. It became clear that Eileen had been overseas, dealing with the difficulties of childbirth.
Stella’s lips trembled as she fought to contain her emotions. She was overcome with feelings, but the words wouldn’t come.
“Congratulations, Stella! Four generations under one roof. Our family now has an heir!” someone said cheerfully.
“Yes, congratulations!” another voice chimed in.
More people caught on and began offering their congratulations, creating a warm atmosphere.
Stella exchanged pleasantries with them, but as the guests left and the house grew quieter, she was left alone with Bryan and Eileen, struggling to find the words to express her feelings.
Finally, Bryan broke the silence. “I’ll release the video and visit you with Gabriela soon.”
“That’s great!” Stella nodded vigorously, her aged eyes sparkling with anticipation.
When her gaze shifted to Eileen, her smile faltered. “Eileen, I…”
Sensing Stella’s hesitance, Eileen quickly reassured her with a warm smile. “When we come back with Gabriela, we’ll visit you together.”
Bryan and Eileen soon left, eager to share their news with the world. They approached several media outlets and offered apologies for the sudden wave of personal updates, formally announcing Bryan’s integration into the Curtis family and the birth of their daughter, Gabriela.
Upon its release, the video caused an uproar.
Bryan, although he had been out of the public eye for some time and appeared slightly disheveled in the video, still retained the chiseled features that had always captivated the public.
The announcement of Bryan’s integration into the Curtis family was captivating, but it was Eileen who delivered the final surprise when she revealed the birth of their daughter. This revelation instantly captured widespread attention.
“This couple is infuriatingly adorable!”
“I heard Bryan used to be a domineering CEO. His actions now seem beneath him, but why does it still feel so… compelling?”
