Chapter 953:

To her surprise, as soon as she stepped out of the ward, she ran into Keith.

“Eileen?” Keith’s expression softened when he saw her. “What are you doing here? Is your grandmother not feeling well?”

“No, she’s alright. I’m here to visit a friend,” Eileen replied, shaking her head with a smile.

“What brings you here?”

Keith’s smile dimmed slightly. He sighed and said, “My wife is unwell and recovering here. But it’s nothing too serious. No need to worry.”

Despite his words, Eileen could see the lingering concern in his eyes.

“By the way, I heard VQ Group has run into some trouble lately and is planning to file a lawsuit,” Keith said. “I’ve been tied up at the hospital and haven’t had a chance to look into it thoroughly. What’s the full story?”

Eileen took a moment to collect her thoughts before explaining. “Conroy impersonated a VQ Group manager and arranged for the Byrd family to contract the site to him. He then took the money and disappeared, leaving the workers demanding payment.”

Eileen observed Keith closely as she spoke. Once Keith grasped the situation, he advised, “This is indeed a problem. If you can’t provide evidence that Conroy took the money and ran, you’ll have to pay the workers yourself. Otherwise, VQ Group’s reputation will suffer.”

“Yes, I get your point,” Eileen replied. “I’ve gathered evidence that Conroy impersonated a VQ Group manager, and I’m planning to file a lawsuit. As for the Byrd family… They haven’t supported Conroy?” She cautiously mentioned the Byrd family.

Keith frowned upon hearing this.

Explore captivating tales on . com “If the Byrd family didn’t support him, why did they help him in the first place? Something’s not right. Watch out for any potential traps.”

It was clear that Keith wasn’t aware that Conroy had been backed by the Aston family when he had approached the Byrd family.

“I appreciate the warning,” Eileen said with a smile.

“You’re welcome. If you need any assistance in the future, feel free to reach out to me. I’ll do what I can to help,” Keith said, just as his phone rang.

Eileen nodded and stepped aside quickly. “I won’t bother you anymore.”

“Alright, let’s discuss this another time,” Keith said as he hurried off.

Watching him leave, Eileen took a moment to think before slowly making her way out of the hospital. Once she got into her car, she immediately called Bryan.

“I’m worried that my identity might have been inadvertently exposed to the Aston family,” she said.

If it wasn’t Keith who had helped Conroy, then it had to be another member of the Aston family. The only one who might have a motive to cause trouble for her was Kamila. Kamila might have learned the fact that she was Keith’s daughter… Could this be Kamila’s way of warning her to stay away from the family?

“I had a feeling this was the case,” Bryan replied.

“So, when I submitted the evidence that Kamila had absconded with the money to the authorities, I mentioned that there might be someone backing him. The court will look into it.”

“Why didn’t you tell me that before?” Eileen asked with a snort, getting into the car and buckling up. She tucked her long hair behind her and pouted. “You’re so sneaky. I’m starting to worry you might even sell me to someone in the future.”
