Chapter 1187:
When Amoura unveiled the painting, Eileen immediately recognized it as the work of an artist whom Stella
admired.
Eileen found herself looking at Stella, who was also gazing her way at that moment. However, Stella quickly
regained her composure and instructed a servant, “Quickly, put the painting away and arrange a return gift for
Mrs. Deleon.”
After issuing the instruction, Stella offered Amoura a courteous but insincere smile and said, “I have many guests
today. Please excuse me.”
Despite the painting, Stella’s demeanor toward Amoura remained unchanged. She took Eileen’s hand, and they
quickly walked away.
“Why do | feel like I've encountered this woman from the Deleon family before? Who is she?” Stella asked while
patting Eileen’s hand.
Stella knew that Javier's original wife had passed away many years ago.
Eileen shook her head and replied, “She didn’t show up in public until after her marriage to Mr. Deleon.”
“Miss Average,” Stella remarked without hesitation. “She doesn’t coff as likable at first glance. Don’t take
her to heart. Regarding Presley, | suspected she was untrustworthy back then, and | was proven correct.”

issues surrounding the rumors about Presley and Bryan. Within the family, who else but Stella could have
managed that?
Stella explained, “Bryan was quite young at the time. Having never had his parents around, he felt very isolated.
Presley was indeed quiet and well-mannered, fitting the profile of a lady from a distinguished family. She
appeared gentler than most, and she took good care of Bryan like a teacher. Bryan didn’t realize the need to
maintain proper distance, which led to the rumors. However, once | becaware of the matter, the situation
was resolved within three days.”

The resolution involved requiring Presley to leave the school. Stella had also ensured that Presley left Esterford.
“I think about it. If she could marry the son of her foster father, her intentions must be dubious,” Stella asserted.
Eileen was stunned for a moment. “She married her brother?” Indeed, Presley was brought into the Deleon
family by her mother, making her not biologically related to Javier. However, Javier's son with Presley’s mother
would be Presley’s half-brother.
“Not exactly. Presley was adopted. They aren't her biological parents,” Stella clarified, having thoroughly
investigated Presley’s background.
Presley cfrom a modest background, yet she had managed to stay with Javier's wife when she remarried
and even made Javier treat her well after his first wife passed away. This meant she was cunning and knew how
to manipulate people.
“I heard about your recent troubles with the Deleon family. You shouldn't worry about the Dawson family’s
reputation. You should settle scores with them. Yet, why did you invite them here?” Stella asked, puzzled. This
didn’t seem in character for Eileen.
