Chapter 34 Are You Really Into Elm?

The moment Eric’s gaze fell on her, Eileen snapped back to reality and pushed him away firmly, saying, “No!”

Her heart was racing with anxiety.

Eric composed himself and looked at her with an emotion she couldn’t quite decipher. “Eileen, you’re rejecting me,” he remarked calmly.

Eileen clutched onto her black pleated skirt tightly, reiterating, “I’ve told you before, Eric, you’re only my brother. Please stop doing these strange things to me from now on. Vera would be upset if she found out.”

She could not bear the thought of Eric playing with the feelings of two women simultaneously. While waiting for him to pick her up earlier, was he doing something like this with another woman in the car?

Eileen realized that she no longer had any feelings of love for him.

He only loved Vera.

Even Sarah, who bore a resemblance to Vera, was merely seen as a tool to bear a child for him.

Her heart once belonged entirely to Eric, but she had lost too much in the

process.

She was genuinely afraid.

Eric’s eyes turned cold as he responded, “You’re right. I’m sorry. I promise it won’t happen again, and I apologize for what happened last time as well.”

“It’s fine… I’ve already forgotten about it!”

“Good… let’s just pretend it never happened.”

With the car now unlocked, Eileen quickly opened the door and fled.

As she entered the entrance of the house, she saw Elsie descending the stairs wearing a captivating purple pajama set. Elsie greeted her “Eileen, did you just get back? Your father. has a party tonight and won’t be back for dinner. Let’s have dinner together.”

However, Eileen was too preoccupied to care about dinner. Her mind was filled with thoughts. of the tumultuous encounter she had with Eric earlier in the car.

Eileen felt a strong sense of disgust, and her stomach churned, making her feel nauseous.
