Chapter 1392
Ruben was not surprised, because her reply made sense to him.
Moreover, after he had spent these days with Eileen, he guessed her reply.
"You have met my father, who is seriously ill. His only hope is to see me get married and have
children. Although I can''t have a child at the moment, I can get engaged.
Please put on an act with me," said Ruben.
Eileen still shook her head.
"I don''t know who else to go to but you. It''s just an act. Let''s pretend to get engaged. Help me,
Eileen.”
Ruben''s attitude was unusually sincere. He said, "I know you have no feelings for me.
And it''s unlikely that well continue to develop our rtionship, but you''re also questioning your
feelings for Luke, aren''t you? Although I don''t know exactly what you''re hesitating about, ying
this scene with me is an opportunity for you and Luke, isn''t it? You''ll be able to see him more clearly
through this, and you''ll get rid of those doubts, won''t you?"
Maybe it was because Eileen had a little pity for Ruben’s father. More than that, given the second
half of what he said, she agreed to his request.
"Didn''t he get a clue from the look on your face?" asked Ruben.
Letting out a soft breath, Eileen said," Maybe I''m acting too real. Although I don’t know how to act
warm and fuzzy. I’ve always been good at showing a cold look on my face."
"I didn''t notice that you had a talent for acting before." Ruben chuckled as he said," Do you want to
get him back?"
Eileen had a nk look in her eyes.
Ruben said, "I know what you’re thinking. Sometimes, cancer isn''t incurable."
Eileen said, "All his rtives are dead. If I can''t be cured, I''ll end up dead, too. So why should I give
him hope?"
After thinking for a while, Ruben said, "It''s also romantic that you can spend the best part of your life
with him."
Eileen shook her head.
"Since you have your own thoughts, I won''t get involved." As Ruben couldn''t persuade Eileen, he
gave up.
Eileen could not describe how she felt.
She was at a loss except for feeling mncholy and ufortable.
She wondered what she should do with Brad.
Luke was abroad while she had to be hospitalized. Brad was smart. If she stayed in the hospital for
a long time, then Brad would definitely know about it.
Her chest was heaving, and she didn''t know what to do.
While she and Ruben were still talking, Ruben''s cell phone rang.
He answered the phone. It was his mother calling him. Then, his expression immediately changed a
lot. He suddenly ran outside of the cafe.
Eileen was stunned, then got up and paid for the coffee.
When she got back to her room, Brad was already asleep.
However, her chest was still heaving up and down from anger. She looked like she had suffered a
lot.
She shook her head. Then she took off Brad''s shoes and tucked him in.
Since she couldn''t sleep, she took out the letter Luke had left. Then, as she looked at the letter in
silence, she was lost in thought.
She was moved at the moment when he risked his life to save her without hesitation.
Besides, she felt scared because she was afraid that she wouldn’t see him through and would be
hurt again.
She had been living a tough life for the past eight years, so she didn''t want to make the same
mistake again. She wanted to say yes to him, but she was also afraid. Therefore, she was hesitant
and torn inside...
She didn''t remember the saying that anyone was humble before love until now, even if one was a
king.
She wondered if this was a humble act on his part.
She did not sleep all night.
If she left Brad with Brandy, it would definitely not work, because Brad would be hurt too.
She thought it was a tough question!

Early the next morning, she was making breakfast for Brad, but Brad didn''t want to eat.
She knew Brad''s doubts, so she went over and hugged him as she said, ’’Let''s find a way to get
your dad back. What do you think?"
"You and Mr. Lyall are already engaged, so why are you looking for my dad? Daddy doesn''t want
me anymore!" Brad''s little face looked sorrowful.
