?Chapter 591:


    After a long pause, he asked, “Ms. Curtis, do you have any specific dietary preferences?”


    “No,” Eileen responded. “As long as Gabri and Benjamin are satisfied with the food, I’m not particr about my own meal.”


    “Really?” Bryan asked, raising an eyebrow. “When we met earlier, you seemed a bit off. Do you… Do you recognize me?”


    After asking, he frowned, looking down, his disappointment hidden behind a cigarette that he ced in his mouth before turning away. “I’ll get lunch ready in advance. Ms. Curtis, please continue with your ns.”


    “Okay,” Eileen replied.


    Bryan didn’t press further, and Eileen pretended not to hear his question. She turned and joined Benjamin, following the vigers up the mountain.


    They soon disappeared into the woods.


    Bryan’s expression darkened. He extinguished his cigarette and began preparing lunch.


    When Eileen and Benjamin returned from their mountain exploration, it was well past lunchtime, and the food that had been prepared was now cold. Not wanting to inconvenience anyone, Benjamin decided to reheat the food himself.


    Among the dishes, Eileen noticed Gabri’s favorite. The little girl still loved it and eagerly devoured the reheated food.


    After feeding Gabri, Eileen turned to find Benjamin warming the other dishes. He then took Gabri from her arms. “I’ll look after her. You eat first. Cold food might upset your stomach.”


    “Okay,” Eileen replied, ncing at the slightly ajar window in the corner of the Dury family’s yard before starting to eat. She hurriedly took a few bites, then switched forks to feed Benjamin some of his favorite dishes.


    “Let me feed you. You’ll feel ufortable eating cold food too,” she said.

    Benjamin smiled and epted the food.


    Eileen alternated between eating, feeding Benjamin, and yfully interacting with Gabri. The three of them looked like a happy family.


    Suddenly, the window closed.


    After lunch, Eileen and Benjamin returned to her ce with Gabri. While Benjamin worked on the investigation report, Eileen put Gabri down for a nap.


    In the evening, a member of the Dury family came over to invite Eileen and Benjamin to dinner.


    Eileen, apanied by Gabri and Benjamin, went to the dinner. She engaged in casual conversation with Benjamin from time to time during the meal.


    Benjamin helped Eileen with holding Gabri, and naturally, some physical contact urred.


    Time passed quickly, and before they knew it, there was only one day left before Bryan and Zelda’s wedding.


    When Eileen received the dinner invitation from the Dury family this time, she brought along the gift Benjamin had purchased and a small box.


    By the time most guests had left, Eileen and Benjamin remained.


    “Miss Dury, Mr. Dawson, I don’t mean to be rude, but I must ask—are you truly nning to get married?” Eileen asked.
