Chapter 1289
Chapter 1289:
The coverage bolstered Colby’s image, even causing a rise in the Deleon Group’s stock value.
Suddenly, Eileen turned and asked Bryan, “Did you hire the journalists?”
“No, I didn’t,” Bryan responded. “I thought you did that.”
“Do you really think I’d do that?” Eileen replied, her voice sharp. “I wouldn’t risk your reputation, even if I wanted to cause a scene.”
Eileen didn’t believe Presley was behind it either. Presley had had Raymond send a message to her, likely to make her go there and misunderstand Bryan. Besides, Presley wasn’t foolish; she wouldn’t sabotage her own reputation.
“Someone else is pulling the strings,” Bryan said, frowning.
After hearing no reply, he glanced over to find Eileen already asleep, her head resting gently against the passenger seat, her breathing soft and steady. By the time they arrived home, it was nearly dusk.

“That was Amoura’s doing. I still can’t wrap my head around why she would go so far as to destroy Presley and push for a divorce,” Raymond whispered, his voice occasionally drowned out by background noise. Bryan decided not to push for more details and simply said, “Keep me posted on any updates.”
Raymond answered awkwardly, “Today’s mess was an accident. I didn’t have time to inform you. Plus, if I did, Amoura wouldn’t trust me.” To be honest, his subtle trick against Bryan today had thoroughly pleased Amoura.
Amoura now trusted him and allowed him to do things for her.
Raymond continued, “Of course, I only dared to pull it off because I knew you could manage it.”
Bryan abruptly ended the call; he didn’t need Raymond to flatter him.
Raymond stared at his phone screen, a shiver running down his spine. He quickly sent back half of the money Bryan had transferred and also sent a message to Bryan: “Mr.
“Dawson, you can always reach me. Five thousand is more than enough per task. After all, I’m part of the Deleon Group on the surface…”
His loyalty lay with the EB Group in his heart, but his thoughts were firmly focused on making money.
