Chapter 1178:

“I won’t disturb you since you’re about to eat,” Presley muttered.

“Bryan, I used to be your teacher… Would you mind walking me out?”

After handing Eileen a fork, Bryan nodded curtly. “Okay.” Hearing Bryan’s words, Eileen nearly choked.

She spun around, her hand flying to her mouth as she coughed violently.

She left to see Presley off.

“Eileen, who was that?” Bailee asked, curiosity etched on her face. She sat down. “Bryan even escorted her out himself?” Bailee’s mind raced with questions.

“You can ask Bryan later, and you’ll find out who she is,” Eileen replied, her tone dismissive. Eileen glanced at the closed door, feeling suffocated. Yet, she continued eating, trying to distract herself.

Outside the ward, as soon as Bryan and Presley emerged, Presley began trying to get close to Bryan.noveldrama

“We used to be teacher and student, and you really agreed to see me off personally?” Presley said, her voice laced with warmth.

“I’m doing this out of politeness, nothing more,” Bryan replied, his voice icy.

Bryan’s cold tone instantly extinguished Presley’s enthusiasm, leaving her deflated.

“I know you blame my daughter for harming yours,” Presley said. “I apologize on her behalf, but your wife assaulted me at the police station. I think we’re even. You should let the matter go now.”

“Then why are you still here?” Bryan asked, his tone firm. Standing by the elevator, Bryan glanced at her sideways. “Since Eileen beat you, you didn’t have to come here to apologize.”

“I don’t want to apologize, but… The EB Group has taken action against the Deleon family. How could I not come?” Presley said, carefully observing Bryan’s expression.

Noticing Bryan’s frown, Presley continued, “Didn’t you know? Then it was your wife’s doing.”

“Regardless of who was responsible, you didn’t have to come here. Goodbye,” Bryan said.

When the elevator arrived, Bryan gestured for Presley to enter.

As Presley was about to step in, Bryan turned and walked away.

As Bryan walked toward the ward, he called Raymond.

“Did you take action against the Deleon Group?” he asked.

Raymond responded with a smile, “You heard the news already? I was just following your instructions to keep an eye on them. I discovered they were interested in a particular piece of land, so I instructed the land dealer not to sell it to them…”

“You’re quite bold to take action first and report it to me afterward,” Bryan said. “Release that land immediately. Don’t take action against them again without my permission.”

“What?” Raymond asked, perplexed. He suddenly recalled something and added, “I received a call today from a woman claiming to be the wife of the Deleon family’s eldest son. She said she was your classmate. Is that true?”

This meant that before Presley had visited the hospital, she already knew Bryan was the head of the EB Group. Presley was also aware that Bryan was Eileen’s husband. She had feigned ignorance and come to the hospital to test her luck.
