?Chapter 1298:


    Eileen nned to head to the hospital for a check-up and bring Gabri along for her vination.


    “Eileen is bad,” Gabri muttered, narrowing her big eyes the moment she heard about getting an injection. “Daddy left, and now Eileen is making me get an injection.”


    “If you don’t do that, you’ll end up getting sick,” Eileen gently said, holding Gabri close. “And you know, if Daddy were here, he wouldn’t even give you a heads-up. He’d just take you to get it directly. At least I’m telling you about it beforehand. So, am I really bad?”


    Gabri, in her childish way, thought that anyone who wanted to take her to get an injection was bad.


    As soon as Eileen med Bryan, Gabri quickly switched sides. “Daddy’s the bad one, not you, Mommy. So, can you not make me get the injection? It really hurts.” Gabri rubbed her small arm, which still showed a tiny red mark from the previous injection.


    The doctor had said that the red spot might not disappear.


    Gabri couldn’t remember much fromst time. All she knew was that she didn’t like it.


    Eileen grabbed a bag of treats and, together with Ruby, took Gabri to the hospital.


    Under the excuse of visiting Dalores, Eileen asked Ruby to take Gabri for her vination while she headed to her pre-scheduled prenatal check-up.


    By the time she finished the examination, almost an hour had passed.


    Eileen stepped out of the room and instantly noticed Presleying her way.


    Even though Presley was wearing a mask, Eileen recognized her right away.

    One of Presley’s eyes was bruised, and she nervously tugged at her sleeves as she saw Eileen. “Are you here for a prenatal check-up?”


    “That’s none of your business,” Eileen replied sharply, preparing to walk away.


    However, Presley quickly stepped in front of her. “Eileen, I want to talk to you about Bryan and me.”


    “I’m not interested in that, nor do I have the time,” Eileen said, walking past Presley.


    Presley kept pace with Eileen, saying, “You can’t avoid this forever. You know exactly why I was thrown out of the Deleon family; you just don’t want to face it. And with you being pregnant now, Bryan still has his desires.”


    Patients and nurses walking by began to throw them curious nces. Maybe it was because the topic of their conversation was too intriguing.


    Eileen found the whole thing irritating. “Believe it or not, I can take care of his needs myself, but nothing you do with your body will ever be enough for him.”


    She backed Presley into a corner where they were alone. “If you keep pushing us, don’t be surprised if we stop ying nice.”


    Presley didn’t mention that Bryan was behind her divorce because she didn’t want to fully burn the bridge and cut off any future chances to negotiate. Yet, no matter what, she could never turn this into a bargaining chip against Eileen and Bryan.


    Realizing Eileen wasn’t about to budge, Presley adjusted her tone. “But I had nothing to do with what happened that night. I didn’t bring the reporters. I’ve already faced the consequences. Surely Bryan owes me something for…”


    “Bryan owes you nothing. He can even file awsuit against you for defamation,” Eileen replied coldly as she nced at her watch. “Be smart,” she added before leaving.
