Rebirth of the Wife in Despair by Tess Munoz

Chapter 62 Where Is Your Family

His gaze was so intense that it seemed like he wanted to devour her.

Eileen looked away, sitting on the edge of the bed with her head hanging, too afraid to meet his eyes.

In a soft voice, she said, “You’ve always protected me so fiercely since I was little, which is why I wanted to see the outside world. Eric… I’m sorry… I won’t run away again, and I won’t throw tantrums anymore.”

Arguing with Eric right now would be unwise.

Eric was already twenty-six, and Will was considering early retirement. Will was waiting for the right time to fully hand over the company to Eric.

Thus, she felt trapped, like a mouse in a trap, unable to escape.

At the end of the day, she could never outsmart Eric. Eileen should have realized it from the beginning. Since she couldn’t escape from the Swan family, she could only accept her fate. As long as she didn’t marry Eric, the tragedy of her past life wouldn’t repeat itself.

“My dad wants me to get married as soon as I finish college, and I’ve agreed to it, no matter who the person is. But, Eric, could you help me tell my dad that I want to choose who I marry? I don’t want to spend the rest of my life in an unhappy marriage.”

A shadowy look appeared in Eric’s eyes, but suddenly, he started laughing. He reached out and gently stroked her head. “Eileen, you’re still young, there’s no need for you to worry about these things. Right now, just focus on recovering. As for the future… we’ll talk about it. later…”

If she could, Eileen really wanted to slap him across the face and yell at him, “Isn’t all of this your fault? Why are you pretending to be the good guy in front of me? You’ve completely. ruined all my plans.”

Just as she had gained a sense of independence, he took it away from her decisively.

At that moment, there was a knock on the door. “Mr. Snow, the check-up is complete. Ms. Blake is fine now. She can leave once the bill is settled.”

Eileen saw Vera, looking pale, standing next to the nurse. Vera was frowning and clutching her stomach as if she was in great pain.

After briefly glancing at Vera, Eileen looked away. It turned out that Eric had come to the hospital to accompany Vera for a medical check-up.
