?Chapter 646:
“This is the wedding gift I prepared for Eileen. Although the actual amount may not matter to them, I intended it to serve as a positive sign. The sum of eleven million signifies that Eileen is the unique choice for Bryan.”
Ruby, seated next to Ste, was simply being amodating, frequently seeking Eileen’s input.
“Moreover, there’s something I haven’t disclosed.” Ste extracted a document from the ck box. “This document is the divorce agreement Eileen signed upon her departure from Onnd, but I reced it with a marital contract. It stiptes that, should they ever divorce, Eileen will be entitled to half of the Dawson family’s assets.”
This was a deliberate part of Ste’s strategy. Back then, even though the shares had been registered under Brandon’s name, the majority of the Dawson family’s assets had been shifted to Bryan’s ownership by Ste. Ste had hoped that, if Bryan ever failed, Eileen would still possess some assets of her own.
Regardless of whether the assets were Eileen’s or Bryan’s, it was certain that they would not end up entirely in Brandon’s hands.
Eileen suddenly nced up, remembering the moment she signed the document, and realized that she and Bryan were still legally married. So, there was no need for them to talk about remarriage.
“What exactly did I sign then?” Bryan suddenly rose to his feet, a whirlwind of emotions swirling within him. He approached Ste and retrieved both agreements.
The documents were nearly identical, except for one added use: if he were to acquire the Dawson Group’s shares and divorce due to irreconcble differences, half of those shares would be awarded to Eileen as rpense.
Ste had meticulously selected Eileen and wanted to treat her well. The earlier incident was a deep-seated regret, a mistake that could not overshadow all the benevolence she had extended toward Eileen.
Eileen felt a surge of warmth in her heart as she smiled, rose from her seat, and walked over to Ste. “Regardless of everything, I am deeply grateful for all you’ve done for me, especially for this agreement.”

She looked over at Bryan, who was holding the documents, his gaze contemtive. She knew what he was thinking.
Noticing the familiar marriage certificate and a photo in the box, she retrieved them and looked at them thoughtfully.
The photo captured her with a youthful face, her eyes expressing uncertainty and confusion. The man beside her had striking features. Although his appearance wasn’t asmanding as it was now, he was still intimidatingpared to how she used to be.
“I’ll hold onto these from now on,” Eileen said, putting the marriage certificate and photo into her bag.
If Bryan wasn’t interested in remarrying, she wouldn’t press the issue. Her insistence would only add to his burdens. But now, it turned out they were still married.
A sense of relief and a touch of sweetness filled Eileen’s heart. She chose to ignore Bryan’s reaction and returned to her seat.
