Rebirth of the Wife in Despair by Tess Munoz

Chapter 12 Used To Being Alone

Eileen’s school uniform was different from the usual boring shirt and skirt. It was an English uniform, with a blazer and shiny leather shoes. The schoolbag was made of a special material as well.

Petalburg High School was right across the road from Cloudberg Public School, a regular public school. It was, however, the most desirable public school, and all the students who went to Cloudberg were intelligent and talented.

The students at Petalburg got in relying on their parents’ wealth and

power.

The students at Cloudberg were not so well off, but had gotten into the school by working hard.

The wealth gap had driven a wedge between both schools, and they had been rivals for the longest time.

Eileen blinked. She seemed to catch sight of Eric’s car among the black SUVs, stopping at the school across the road.

Sure enough, Vera got out of the car.

Was Eric sending Vera to study at Cloudberg?

Eric sensed someone was staring at him. He turned around instinctively, and was greeted by the sight of Eileen in her black uniform.

She had her hair up in a ponytail, her tall and slender figure making her stand out in the crowd.

Eileen had not expected for him to turn around all of a sudden. She merely nodded and smiled, greeting him.
