Chapter 767
Conroy replied, “There’s no need for this. Kinsey and I are men; we can’t accept your money. I asked you to reunite with the Vazquez family, not to pay for it. You can go back alone. Kinsey and I won’t be coming with you.”
Eileen responded promptly, “Kinsey has depended on his grandmother’s family for twenty years. Why would he be ashamed to use a woman’s money? And as for you, you’ve been relying on your wife’s family and using her money for a long time. Why would you refuse to use your daughter’s money?”
“You!” Conroy clenched his teeth and glared at her.
“Never mind.” Eileen tucked the card away and said, “I only have two hundred thousand in savings. I’d prefer to use it to buy food for Grandma. I’m not going back, but if you visit Grandma, you can take me along.”
After finishing her statement, Eileen went to play with Gabriela by the window.
Noticing that Conroy hadn’t left, she inquired, “Mr. Finch, is there anything else? If you need it, I can give you the two hundred thousand dollars.”
Conroy stood up and adjusted his crumpled clothes. “No.” Casting a glance at Gabriela, he added, “Make sure you take excellent care of the baby. If anything happens to her, those two hundred thousand won’t be enough to cover even a hair on her head!”
With that, he walked out.
Eileen arched an eyebrow upon hearing that. “Then Gabriela must be worth a considerable fortune!” she muttered with a smile.
Conroy stormed out in frustration. Once back in his office, he paced restlessly, hands on his hips. After a while, he pulled out his phone and dialed a number. “Make the arrangements. I’m going back to the mansion tonight.”

He returned with Kinsey, deliberately keeping the matter from Eileen. However, Eileen learned of Conroy’s plans when Leyla sent her a message.
Leyla also asked Eileen to start a video call at eight in the evening to let her see the situation with the Vazquez family.
When Eileen received the news, it was late afternoon, around five o’clock. The hours until the call at eight dragged on as she waited with mounting anticipation. After all, her knowledge of Gianna, Conroy, and Kinsey was limited to what Leyla had told her. After finishing work, Eileen quickly ate.
Dinner at home was followed by a trip to the study with her phone, waiting for the video call. Meanwhile, Bryan was in the bedroom, spending time with…
Just before eight o’clock, Leyla initiated the video call. She remained silent, motioning for Eileen to hide the phone, and then sat back on the bed.
Whether due to her legs being in good condition or her eagerness for the task, Leyla had done all of this with ease. A few minutes later, the bedroom door opened, and Conroy and Gianna entered.
“Mom, Conroy returned today to discuss the matter about Eileen with you.” Gianna moved over and sat next to Leyla.
Leyla responded weakly, “What’s this about?”
“Eileen landed a job after moving to the city. It looks like she plans to stay,” Gianna updated Leyla about the events following Eileen’s departure.
