GoodNovelChapter 215 Chapter 215: The person on the other end of the call hesitated. "What do you mean? Explain it toclearly!" Feeling a chill, Eileen instinctively wrapped her arms around herself. Noticing this, Bryan turned off the air conditioning in the car. From the back seat, Milford saw this and couldn't suppress a laugh.
Hearing Milford's laughter, Eileen glanced back at him. "Bryan, you really take care of Ms. Curtis well," Milford chuckled. He wanted to continue, but the stern look Bryan shot him through the rearview mirror silenced him. What had he said wrong? Eileen tucked her hair behind her ear, her cheeks tinged with red. As they arrived at the door of the educational agency, she exited the car but paused to look back. Through the slightly open window, she told Bryan, "Buy him two sets of clothes and shoes, along with sitems he'll need since he's living with us." Bryan nodded and responded patiently. He waited until he saw her enter the building before starting the conversation with Milford. "You're welcto stay with us, but there are three rules." Bryan's voice was cold as he continued, "First, you need to resolve any issues with Zola by yourself. We won't get involved." "Okay!" Milford replied swiftly.
"Second, don't upset Eileen," Bryan said.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMilford nodded, taking Bryan's words seriously.
Bryan continued, “Third, don't bother Eileen except for tutoring sessions." Explore more stories galηovlsMilford agreed to all the terms, but as Bryan laid out the conditions, his heart raced. Despite Eileen's earlier reassurances, Milford couldn't fully relax. He felt skeptical of Bryan's words, especially in front of Eileen.
He had expected Bryan to cup with srules, and it seemed that two of the three rules directly involved Eileen. Pondering this, he realized he needed to keep his distance from her while also currying her favor to live with them.
Milford didn't take the rule about Zola seriously. "Bryan, you and Ms. Curtis are really suited for each other! Ms. Curtis seems so distant to others, but with you, she seems different... When are you two going to get married?" Milford tried to flatter Bryan since Eileen wasn't around.
Bryan remained unmoved. "Cut the crap. Do you have your phone with you? Contact Zola and explain everything to her. Eileen and I won't be doing that for you." "I don't have a phone right now," Milford responded. “Maybe you could geta cheap one? I promise I won't play games anymore. I'll only use it for calls. I'll pay you back in the future." Bryan couldn't help but sneer. Milford assumed that to someone wealthy like Bryan, a cheap phone would still mean something in the range of two to three thousand dollars. Yet, Milford hadn't expected Bryan to be quite stingy.
In the evening, when Eileen went to tutor Adalina, she didn't bring Milford with her. However, she shared with Adalina that she had located Milford, and Adalina was overjoyed.
After her tutoring session, Eileen returned hand pulled out a stack of test papers she had prepared in advance for Milford. "Complete these at htomorrow. Also, I've uploaded sstudy materials in our chat. You should read them tonight." "I can't," Milford said, pulling out a vintage cell phone from his pocket. “I can't log into Whatwith this.” The phone looked brand new and was likely a recent purchase by Bryan. Eileen, taken aback, asked in a low voice, "Did you upset Bryan?" Milford immediately shook his head and said, "No, I didn't—” Before he could finish, he noticed Bryan stepping out of the kitchen. He quickly stood up and retreated a few steps. "Ms. Curtis, may I use your laptop? I'll return it tomorrow after I finish reading the materials." Eileen was at a loss for words. She turned and glanced at Bryan. His white shirt sleeves were rolled up, revealing his muscular arms. He raised his eyes and glanced at Milford, who looked pitiful, and then at Eileen.
"Go wash up and get ready for dinner. You're visiting your mom later, right?" Bryan said to Eileen.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEileen nodded and rolled up her sleeves to wash her hands, puzzled. Bryan seemed so gentle; why would Milford be intimidated by him? At the dinner table, Milford ate quickly. Once he was full, he used Eileen's laptop to read the materials.
After dinner, Eileen went to visit Ruby.
When she arrived, Ruby and the others were having dinner, and Ruby e could only eat ssoup. Eileen took the bowl and spoon from Bailee and said, "I'll feed her. You go ahead and eat."
She settled next to Ruby and skillfully fed her the soup, saying, "The soup smells great. Mom, you've taught Bailee to cook well.” Ruby smiled warmly and glanced at Bailee with pride.
"Mrs. Curtis, you're spoiling Eileen.
She can't cook at all. When you get tall, better, you really should teach her En.
properly," Phoebe teased. Eileen rolled her eyes at Phoebe. "Like you're any better at cooking."
