Chapter 607 Chapter 607: Josue pushed Jacob out the door, and as they left, Jacob muttered anxiously, "I hope they don't start a fight." Josue replied, "Don't worry. Bryan isn't in any shape to harm Eileen, but he's not going to lose to her in a fight either." "Nobody's going to get hurt." Once they exited, Bryan eased himself out of bed. His movements were slow but deliberate, and his tall frloomed over Eileen.
Eileen looked up and saw the stubble on his chin. It had been a long tsince she had been this close to him. His scent felt unfamiliar now.
Her eyes began to well up, and the effort of looking up made it harder for her to hold back the tears.

But Bryan's emotions were quickly quelled by his rational side. "You shouldn't have broughtback," he said. Eileen smiled, the bitterness clear in her voice. "It's not too late for you to leave now. I'll forget you and everything we had. I'll forget every word you ever said to me. And I won't let Gabriela know her father's nis Bryan. She'll have a stepfather, and he will-" Her words were cut off as Bryan suddenly kissed her passionately.
In the early morning sunlight, Bryan kissed Eileen passionately, their bodies pressed close together. Eileen tilted her head back, clutching Bryan's clothes tightly, allowing him to lead.
After a moment, Bryan stopped, resting his forehead against hers. "If I'm not around in the future, Jacob and Josue will be there to support you. Try not to be too hard on them," he said.
Though Jacob had been silent these past few days, Bryan had noticed his lingering bitterness. Jacob had forced Eileen to visit the hospital today, suggesting she might have done something to provoke him.
With their foreheads still touching, Eileen remained silent.
"You don't need to cto the hospital so often. I have doctors here," Bryan added, his hand sliding down her shoulder to cover hers. His fingers were stiff, lacking their usual flexibility and warmth.
Eileen glanced down and saw his fingers were a bit blue. "What happened?" she asked softly.

Eileen's gaze followed his hand, and she gently pushed him away after seeing his fingers.
"And you shouldn't bring Gabriela here. Hospitals aren't good places; they're full of germs" of germs Bryan moved a step away, standing beside her by the window, both of them bathed in the early morning light. Eileen smoothed her long hair. She had many questions, and so much to say, but she held back after hearing his words.
She nodded and said, "I understand. I'll make tto visit you amidst my busy schedule. If you feel unwell, haye Josue and Jacob notifyimmediately. Even if you die, they must inform me."
Bryan frowned and gently tapped her forehead. His touch was softand was deliberate, yet she remained still, allowing the gentle tap.
