Chapter 705
“You can rest at home tomorrow. I’ll handle things at the company,” Bryan replied, navigating the roads with practiced ease.
Eileen turned to him, curiosity in her gaze. “Does that mean you’re not going to leave all the business matters to me from now on?”
Bryan raised an eyebrow, his voice low and earnest. “Marrying you was to prove my commitment to you, not to offload my responsibilities onto you.”
If it weren’t for his desire to spend more time with Gabriela, he wouldn’t have transferred all the responsibilities to her before. And if not for the accidents later, he wouldn’t have burdened her with so much.
“The shares are still yours; I’ll manage the rest,” Bryan added.
Eileen’s smile broadened, a light touch of contentment settling over her features.
The following day, news of Brandon’s death broke. Despite the fact that he had been kicked out of the Dawson family, Brandon’s prominence ensured that his passing made headlines.
Bryan, after reading the news with indifference, made a call to the old mansion to check on Stella. Brandon was, after all, her brother. Although Stella was shaken and managing only small meals, her health was fine. Relieved by this, Bryan headed straight to the EB Group offices.
At the office, Bryan’s presence commanded an air of authority that even the most confident shareholders couldn’t match. The shareholders were all frightened, unlike when they had confronted Eileen. But Bryan was ruthless. He reviewed the surveillance footage from the last shareholders’ meeting and decisively identified those who had caused trouble for Eileen. He forcefully acquired their shares and ousted them from the company.
“From today on, the shares of EB Group, Apex Group, and Warren Group are mostly in my wife’s name. I’ll be overseeing them on her behalf. Any grievances, direct them to me. Anyone found disturbing Eileen will be promptly dismissed,” Bryan said, his tone unwavering and authoritative, brooking no argument.
Some people were dissatisfied with Bryan dismissing shareholders at will. They had wanted to talk to Eileen about this later, but when they heard Bryan’s words, they quickly abandoned the idea. They all lowered their heads, not daring to say anything.
Meanwhile, Eileen was relishing a rare moment of tranquility since Gabriela’s birth. When she woke up, Bryan had already left.

She spent her morning with Gabriela, then ventured out to the local square with Ruby, where they enjoyed some retail therapy, refreshing Ruby’s wardrobe.
During their shopping spree, Eileen’s phone rang. It was Roderick calling, his voice sounding excited.
“Eileen, good news! Judie has just delivered a boy. Congratulations, you’re an aunt now!”
Although Eileen couldn’t see Roderick, she could picture the smile on his face.
“Judie gave birth today? Congratulations! Which hospital are you at?” Eileen asked as she checked the time. She wanted to buy some gifts before going to the hospital.
His voice a little muffled, Roderick answered, “No, she gave birth a few days ago. I didn’t tell you because I thought you were going through hard times. But when I saw the news that Bryan returned to the company…”
