Chapter 20 " Oh ! I haven't tasted your cooking for a long time either . I'll go take a bite ! " The driver then started the car . Fia gave Eileen a good look . Three years ago , they were both university students . They were still so immature . Now , Eileen had already grown to become a sexy and attractive woman , becoming Hollywood's newest superstar Meanwhile , she had become Mrs. Maxwell . She had no career and she had not improved her fine art skills at all . I'm quite envious of you , Eileen , " Fia said from the bottom of her heart . Eileen was dumbfounded . She placed her hand one on top of another as she looked at her freshly - done nails . She then said , " I was just joking with you . Yes , I have my own home and car , and I'm quite famous too … But I lost a lot of things . " " What happened ? " Fia asked worryingly . Eileen was the only one that she was close to . Eileen gave it a thought and shook her head . " It's nothing . We all have to suffer a little in life . Suffering isn't scary What's scary is that our hearts waver , and we feel like giving up sometimes . She extended her arms and gave Fia a big hug . " My dear Mrs. Maxwell … We have to stay strong , no matter what " " Yeah … " Fia gave Eileen a hug as well . Both of them quietly cheered for each other as they suppressed the terrible thoughts inside them . " Mom , Grandma , where have you been ? Why didn't you take me along ? " Fia asked as she led Eileen into the mansion hand - in - hand . Eileen removed her mask and gently greeted them . " Long time no see , Ms. Echo , Mrs. Thea . " The two of them squinted and looked at Eileen . " Eileen ? " " Yes , it's me . " While Eileen looked prideful to outsiders , she was actually someone warm and friendly amongst friends and family . She sat down in between Echo and Thea and continued , "I thought you wouldn't recognize me anymore . " Echo nodded and said , " I almost didn't . You're becoming prettier and prettier . " Thea also agreed . " You're getting more confident too . " When the two of them looked at Fia , they both were very saddened . The two of them were around the same age , and they didn't look that different . But now , Fia was much more reserved . That was the scar left behind by an unhappy life . " You should stay here and chat while I cook . Eileen , please take care of my mom and grandma . " Fia and Mrs. Taylor went to the kitchen while Eileen asked what happened to Fia . Echo and Thea knew that the two of them were very close They hoped that Eileen would take good care of Fia for them . " That's ridiculous ! " Eileen said as she gritted her teeth . " It has been three years ! How did Esme become so shameless ?! " " Fia was worried that we'll get upset , so she didn't say anything , " Echo said in anguish . Thea huffed and continued , " They had already openly shown themselves while holding hands . Now , the entire Gryphon knows about this already . They're not even hiding it anymore ! Eileen frowned and asked , " So … Will you agree to Mr. Maxwell divorcing Fia ? " " No ," Echo and Thea said together . Eileen then asked worryingly , " But Mr. Maxwell had already said that he wanted to divorce and Fia even agreed to it . " Thea nodded . " That's why Echo and I will stop Esme instead . " Echo held Eileen's hand tightly . " Fia's your best friend , so please talk to her about it . Esme no longer treats her as her cousin . Even if she chooses to give up and leave , Esme will not give up hounding her Thea then followed up . " Even if there's no avoiding the divorce , we will protect Fia's rights . We won't allow her to be kicked about so easily by anyone ! " Eileen nodded . " I believe so too . Once Mr. Maxwell is back , we'll give him some more pressure . We'll show him that Fia is not alone . If he harasses Fia , we won't let him have a day of peace ! " " That's right ! "
