Rebirth of the Wife in Despair by Tess Munoz

Chapter 47 Not Calling Your Brother Anymore?

Eileen knelt on the ice cold Blake marble tiles in the study. She could see the reflection of the scar on her face on the floor. She touched it gently with her fingers, and felt pulses of sharp stings.

The study smelled of sandalwood, and it made her nose feel uncomfortable.

At that moment, she could hear footsteps outside the door and immediately straightened her kneeling position, and tightened the grip on her clothes. She knew what was going to happen.

Eileen’s head was hung low, with Eric’s shadow covering her within her eyesight. The study had a depressing atmosphere which made her feel suffocated.

“I shouldn’t have argued with my classmates,” She said quaintly.

Will took down the bamboo stick that was hanging on the wall, and stood in front of her.

She trembled with fear as she heard her father’s voice from the top of her head. “Three contracts cost more than nine million dollars. And if you include the money I contributed as well, it adds up to more than thirteen million dollars. Don’t you think I should punish for that today, Eileen? Yes or no?”

Vera, who was standing behind Eric, was so scared to look directly at them she backed up a few steps.

“Yes. It’s all my fault. I didn’t control my emotions well enough, and I shouldn’t have started a fight with them. You have every right to punish me!”

“Turn around.”

Eileen moved her knees and turned around. No one could save her now, could Eric?

But Eileen had never ever expected him to.

Will cased the bamboo stick in his hands, and swung vigorously. The first hit and her enture tark werd numb She couldn’t feel any pain until the second hit felt like a tear across her skin then the third hat the fourth
