Chapter 880:
His succinct explanation caused Conroy to inhale sharply in shock. He nudged Gianna and asked, âDid I hear that right?â
Gianna snapped back to reality, turned to Conroy, and questioned, âIs this Mr. Dawson fake? How could such a powerful person be like this?â
It was clear that standing within the courtâs family was second only to Eileen.
âWhat are you talking about?â Conroy grew irritated. âHe is the real Mr. Dawson. Why didnât you tell me before that you had met him?â
âI didnât know before he was Mr. Dawson,â Gianna replied, frustrated that Conroy was blaming her. But she knew now was not the time to argue with him. She forced a smile and said, âMr. Dawson, weâre family. Iâm your aunt-in-law, and Conroy is your father-in-law. This has all been a misunderstanding. Itâs late now. You should get some rest. We can talk more tomorrow.â
âIt is indeed late.â Bryan glanced at his watch and released Eileen, saying, âGo to sleep. Iâll talk to them.â
Gianna was left speechless. Trying to lighten the mood, Conroy jokingly said, âMr. Dawson, weâre old and canât stay up late. Letâs go to bed now and continue this discussion in the morning. What do you think?â
With a frown, Bryan gently pinched Eileenâs chin, pulling her back from her daze. âYou can go back to sleep now,â he said. His voice was low and soothing, a stark contrast to the noises of the fight outside.
Despite the simplicity of Bryanâs words, they left Conroy feeling disoriented.
âCanât you tougher it out?â Gianna snapped. âWhy are you so intimidated by him? Heâs your daughterâs husband!â

Eileen turned her attention outside and noticed a line of bodyguards in suits, adjusting their attireâthey were all brought by Bryan. Conroy and Gianna, once arrogant, now seemed deflated.
âThen Iâll go to bed first. Please keep your voices down. Gabriela has already fallen asleep,â Eileen said to Bryan.
âGo ahead,â Bryan responded.
Eileen then turned and walked back to Leylaâs bedroom. Since Eileen had left, Leyla had been anxious. She had changed her clothes and was stepping outside to check on the situation. Relieved to see Eileen return, Leyla grabbed her hand, pulling her inside.
âThese two are ambitious. It seems youâve backed them into a corner. Donât confront them directly. We can endure for now and choose the right moment later to teach them a lessonâ¦â Leyla advised in a hushed tone, fearing Eileen might risk her life by challenging Conroy and Gianna.
Eileen understood how Leyla had managed to survive all these years under the same roof with such ruthless people. Leyla was clearly good at enduring these kinds of challenges.
âGrandma, donât worry. Bryan is here now. He will handle Conroy and Gianna,â Eileen reassured her.
Leyla was taken aback. She furrowed her brow and asked, âYour husband is here?â
