Chapter 1254:
Raymond's resignation had been a significant event. His decision to join the Deleon Group had sent shockwaves
throughout the entire business world.
The secretary, clearly nervous, sat back down and said, “Raymond resigned the day after receiving his paycheck,
and... Well, the last tyou askedto send him the contracts for review, things took a turn. Eighty percent of
those contracts have now been signed over to the Deleon Group. The remaining twenty percent are from our
long-term business partners, the ones who refused to work with the Deleon Group. Raymond's sudden
resignation wasn't by the book—he paid a penalty for leaving like this. The money was wired straight from the
Deleon Group's official account.”
In other words, the Deleon Group had poached Raymond, and they made no attempt to hide it. It was a bold,
deliberate move.
No wonder Bryan had been swamped with work lately. The only thing his secretary could do was help keep his
schedule on track.
Eileen exhaled deeply, giving the secretary a reassuring pat on the shoulder. “You can go hnow. I'll handle
the rest from here,” she said calmly.
With that, she turned on her heel and made her way into the CEO's office.
“Go ahead and clock out for the night. Be here by five in the morning tomorrow to get everything ready for the

who had just entered.
He then heard only soft footsteps.
Bryan paused, looked up, and finally saw Eileen.
“What brings you here?” he asked, rising from his seat. He circled his desk, guiding her to sit on the sofa, and
handed her a glass of milk. “I thought | told you to rest after dinner.”

Eileen took a sip and said, “If | hadn't shown up, | wouldn't have even known Raymond resigned. Why didn’t you
tellsomething this important?”
“Telling you wouldn't have fixed anything; it would only make you feel worried.” Bryan reached for a tissue, softly
dabbing the milk stains from the corner of Eileen’s mouth. “He left, but it’s not a big loss. I've just got a bit more
work now; that’s all.”
Just a bit more?” Eileen tapped her watch lightly. “You have been working until this hour every day recently.”
Raymond had handled half of their workload before.
Not to mention, a huge chunk of it was incredibly tedious. Looking up documents, reviewing contracts, and
researching cases all took up a lot of tand energy.
Raymond's abrupt departure left Bryan without anyone he could trust to take over the job right away, which
meant he was overloaded with work.
“Starting tomorrow, I'm coming to the office with you,” Eileen declared.
Bryan immediately shook his head. “You don’t have to do that. It's exhausting, and you'll be worn out by these
tedious tasks. How can you manage that?”
