Chapter 1269:
Eileen nodded calmly. “Yes, we are aware of that.”
Winona said, “So you all decided to keepin the dark? Don’t you think that’s unfair? The Baker family has
always had only one son per generation. If Huey can’t have a son, | can.
“Mrs. Baker, | think it’s best to let the younger generation live their own lives. We shouldn't interfere,” Eileen
interjected with a polite smile. “You chere because you know how committed Huey is to Bailee. You want to
keep them from being together. We understand why you feel that way, but we're not going to interfere in their
relationship. Yes, Bailee has health problems. But even if Huey were the one with health problems, we wouldn't
interfere with their relationship. If you're uncomfortable with that, then you need to talk to Huey about it. We're
not in a position to help you here.
Perhaps feeling that Eileen’s words were a bit too direct, Ruby gently nudged Eileen and offered a smile to
Winona. “Mrs. Baker, at the end of the day, we have to let the younger generation handle their own affairs.
“You're lucky. Even if your daughter can’t have children, she got married. What about my luck?” Winona shot to
her feet. “It's easy to talk when you're not the one facing the problem!”

Eileen stood up, locked eyes with Winona, and said calmly, “If you can convince Huey to divorce Bailee, we won't
stand in the way, and we won't ask for any compensation. Beyond that, there's nothing we can do.” Frustrated,
Winona stormed out.
“Mom, by now you should know what Winona is like. She preys on the weak, but backs down when people stand
firm. If you give her an inch, she'll take a mile.” Eileen hated to see Ruby treated that way. “When it comes to
Bailee, just let things play out naturally. Stay < away from Winona as much as possible and don't worry about it.
As long as Bailee's happy, that's all that matters."

Lately, Ruby had found scomfort in Bailee's decision to try IVF, but Winona's visit brought her worries back.
Eileen tried to comfort Ruby, but when she realized it wasn't helping, she quietly went to the kitchen to get
something to eat.
Bailee seemed to have sensed Winona's visit and texted Eileen, hoping to find out what had happened. After
reassuring Bailee, Eileen decided to take Ruby and the others for a walk to relax.
Downtown Onaland was known for its picturesque river that froze in the winter, with fish swimming just below
the surface of the ice.
The picturesque scenery attracted many visitors.
Ruby walked arm in arm with Leyla while Eileen held Gabriela's hand as they walked along the riverbank. After
walking quite a distance, Eileen grew tired and found a bench to sit on and take a break.
"Eileen, have you been pushing yourself lately?" Ruby asked, concern written all over her face. "I've noticed
you've been either eating or sleeping lately. Are you feeling exhausted?"
"Yes, I've been feeling a little drained lately," Eileen said. She wasn't quite ready to bring up her pregnancy. With
Ruby preoccupied with Bailee's problem, Eileen wasn't sure how to break the news.
