Chapter 80 Your Brother Will Feel Unhappy

“Look, I can’t sleep anymore since you arrived. Shall we have a chat for a bit?”

Eileen asked, “What does ‘shoot the breeze’ mean?”

Mary slapped her thigh. “Oh my, you don’t even know this! Let me explain. ‘Shoot the breeze means to have a conversation.”

Eileen nodded thoughtfully. “What would you like to talk about?”

Mary whispered, “When I went out earlier, I overheard something. Oh my, that scream was as intense as the rumors of secret affairs in our village. It was so thrilling. Mr. Swan, your father… he’s in great shape. I assure you, your father can still have children. You’ll have a little brother soon.”

Listening to Mary’s accent, which had a dialect from an unknown region, Eileen found it. quite intriguing.

Mary sounded bold and straightforward, seemingly unbothered. Yet, the things she spoke of…

Will had multiple relationships with quite a few women, but he would never abandon his own child. Even if there were any, he would make sure to handle it properly.

Once, a woman in her twenties came to the door, causing a commotion with a child in her

arms.

Eileen heard nothing about her after that. The whereabouts of that child were also unknown.

That had only happened once.

A desk lamp glowed on the table. The scent of burning charcoal filled the room. Mary’s snoring was loud, and the pain in Eileen’s arm from last night’s incident kept her awake.

She took a short nap on the narrow bed. When she woke up, the sky outside had brightened.

Eileen carefully got out of bed, making sure not to disturb Mary. Wrapped in a blanket, she quietly closed the door and stepped outside.

It had snowed all night, and a thick layer had already accumulated outside. The cotton slippers had also been dried since last night.

Slipping them onto her feet, she felt somewhat warm.

She sneaked out the back door, as they must not find out that she had returned last night.
