Chapter 1189:
Gabriela decided to sleep on the small bed in the living room, which had wheels for easy movement, but it was
difficult to take upstairs. Seeing the hope in Stella’s eyes, Eileen smiled and agreed, “Okay. She rarely wakes up
at night, but if she does cry, you can have someone call us.”
“Sure!” Stella quietly wheeled Gabriela’s bed away.
Eileen then went upstairs with Bryan.
“You look exhausted. I'll give you a massage later. Go take a shower first,” Bryan said, gently massaging Eileen’s
waist. Eileen indeed felt worn out. She turned and headed into the bathroom. As soon as she did, Bryan made a
call to Raymond.
“Why did you invite the Deleon family?” In the stillness of the night, Bryan's voice cut through the study, sharper
than usual.
He believed it was a mistake Raymond shouldn't have made. On the other end of the line, Raymond hesitated.
Hadn't he acted on Bryan's hint? Why was Bryan calling in the dead of night to question him? Was it because

Thinking of this, Raymond quickly responded, “Mr. Dawson, it’s my fault. | thought we should let the Deleon
family in to avoid causing trouble, so | invited them. You can punish me.”
“You'll lose this quarter's bonus,” Bryan replied, feeling frustrated. How could Raymond's tone be like this after
making such a mistake? He didn’t sound apologetic at all.
Raymond gritted his teeth, thinking he would have to negotiate with Bryan about his bonus later. For now, he
just needed to help Bryan through this.
“Mr. Dawson, please tell Mrs. Dawson not to be upset. | won’t—" He suddenly stopped mid-sentence when he
was about to say that he would never make decisions without permission in the future. He hadn't made any
decision without permission after all! Making a promise now could backfire if Eileen decided to punish him later.

Changing his approach, he said, “If | mess up again, you can dock my pay again.”
Bryan was left completely speechless. Raymond would rather face punishment than promise not to repeat the
mistake.
“Is something going on with you?” Bryan asked.
Raymond replied immediately, “Yes, I've been in a bad mood. | hope you and Mrs. Dawson can forgive me.” His
apology cquickly but hollow, lacking sincerity.
“Why are you here?” Eileen’s voice came.
She had cout of the bathroom but hadn’t seen Bryan, so she had clooking for him.
The study door was slightly ajar, and Bryan had yet to turn on the light. Eileen felt odd seeing him on the phone
with someone in the dark.
She pushed open the door and walked in directly.
Bryan immediately hung up and said
