Chapter 364 Chapter 364: "I know you didn't mean any harm," Eileen said, noticing Milford's anxious expression. She smiled reassuringly. "I'm heading to the office now. You can stay hand look after Gabriela with Bryan. Just givea call if anything comes up." Relieved by her calm demeanor, Milford nodded gratefully. "Don't worry, I'll take good care of Gabriela." Eileen changed her shoes at the entryway and glanced up the staircase, but she didn't see anything. She vividly recalled how Bryan would often insist on seeing her off whenever she left for work.

Breaking the silence, Eileen said softly, "You know, your job isn't easy. The high salary you earn is due to the dangers and the need for secrecy." "I understand, but I need to keep track of your daily agenda and provide timely reminders," Dalores said, glancing up from the schedule, her lips curling into a small smile.

Eileen paused for a moment before asking, "The last tyou mentioned you couldn't leave because you were short on money, what happened? Is there anyone else depending on you?"
