?Chapter 786:
“You’re wee.” Eileen yed with the baby and started a conversation with Dalores about the child. The servant lingered for a bit and then exited the room.
Eileen then questioned Dalores, “Have you seen Julio? Did he cause you any trouble?”
Dalores shook her head. “No. I’ve made my position clear to him, and he won’t being back.”
“What did you say to make him back off?” Eileen asked, curious.
“I told him I had an abortion,” Dalores said, touching her red eyes and dering firmly, “He won’t bother me anymore. He despises me now.”
A heavy silence fell over the room. Eileen hadn’t expected Dalores to say that to Julio.
“Regardless, this is my decision. I’ll handle whateveres from it. Thank you,” Dalores said, offering Eileen a smile.
Eileen soon left.
Stepping out of the vi, Eileen deliberately nced at Conroy. The woman inside hadn’t emerged for quite some time, suggesting she might be living there. With a frown, Eileen returned home.
During the meal, Eileen discussed with Bryan that it wasn’t practical to keep surveince on Conroy’s vi daily.
“There’s a security camera outside the vi that can be angled in that direction. However, we can’t make it too obvious. You really need to go to the office and can’t keep watch tomorrow.” While feeding Gabri, Bryan gave Eileen some advice. He added, “I need to attend a business banquet hosted by VQ Group tomorrow night. I think you should attend, too.”

What Bryan was hinting at was that it was time for them to expose Conroy’s real identity.
Eileen asionally saw Conroy at thepany. Conroy’s assistant helped him cover his identity, and Eileen always yed along. However, at arge banquet, it would be much harder for Conroy to maintain his act.
“I’m already tired of this. I’m curious to see how Conroy will handle himself,” Eileen said with a smile to Bryan. “But are you sure no one will recognize me there tomorrow night?” Despite the fact that Alverton was far from Onnd, businessmen always traveled around the world for work. Some businessmen who hadn’t seeded in Onnd might have moved to Alverton. It was possible that some of them had encountered Eileen before.
While Conroy and Kinsey, who had never left Alverton, were unaware of Eileen’s identity, that didn’t mean others at the banquet wouldn’t recognize her.
“I’m sure,” Bryan said, shaking his head. “But if you’re not holding Gabri, you might go unrecognized.”
Rumors in Onnd were notoriously oundish, often distorting the truth far beyond what outsiders might believe, including tales of Eileen’s supposed demise or infidelity. In fact, Bryan had reviewed the guest list for the banquet and noted no familiar names. He had just said that to tease Eileen.
Taking his words seriously, Eileen suggested, “Then maybe you should take Gabri, and I’ll just blend into the background.”
The following morning, Eileen busied herself selecting clothes for the banquet and a new dress for Gabri. She went to thepany at noon, ready to have lunch with Bryan and attend the banquetter.
Weighed down by Gabri in one arm and shopping bags in the other, Eileen struggled out of the elevator, breathless. That was when she encountered Jessica and her secretary, Tami Glyn.
