Rebirth of the Wife in Despair by Tess Munoz

Chapter 33 The Young Girl Had Matured

While Jasper was driving in the opposite direction with Eileen, he decided to turn around at the upcoming traffic light. At that moment, he received a message from Eileen asking, “Jasper, where are you?”

Jasper had always kept his mobile phone with him, eagerly waiting for her messages, and whenever he saw one, he would reply promptly.

However, this time he turned off his phone.

The driver glanced at the rearview mirror and asked, “Is it a message from Miss Swan? Did she suspect something?”

“I think so… But I don’t want to lie to her,” Jasper neither confirmed nor denied.

He wanted to wait a little longer until he could stand on his own, and then Eileen would see him as his true self.

The driver suggested, “What if Miss Swan wouldn’t mind that?”

“It’s not that she minds, but I do. Let’s head back for now!” Jasper closed his eyes, feeling exhausted. What happened just now was incredibly dangerous. If he had not deliberately waited at the hospital gate or had left at the wrong time, he shuddered to think of the consequences Eileen might have faced.

Determined, Jasper opened his eyes again, a cold determination flickering in them. “Take the three of them to the police station, and they are not supposed to be released without my permission.”

“Yes, sir.”

Meanwhile, Eileen did not wait for any other messages, assuming that the boy she encountered earlier could not have been Jasper. If he were, why wouldn’t he have recognized.

Later, Eileen arrived at the Skyline Building for her piano class. Opting for one-on-one private teaching, she quickly mastered the piece she was working on, having practiced it countless times before.

After nearly three hours of piano practice, darkness had fallen outside. When the driver came to pick her up, he noticed that the person waiting for her was not Alan but Eric.

After playing the piano for an extended period, Eileen felt her finger joints getting a bit sore. When she noticed the car window rolling down, she hesitated before approaching.
