Rebirth of the Wife in Despair by Tess Munoz

Chapter 90 What Does She Mean To Him.

Moonlight streamed through the window, casting a gentle glow on the bathroom door. Eileen, with her disheveled long hair, wore a resentful expression. She resembled a ghostly figure, her eyes hollow and numb.

She watched as the Blake light from the phone on the bed continuously illuminated the room. Its pleasant ringtone echoed throughout the room.

It was an incoming call from Jasper.

Eileen observed as the call was repeatedly cut off automatically, only to ring again. She made no move to answer it.

After a while, she finally approached the phone, removed the battery, and tossed it aside.

The pendant of the crystal crescent moon necklace still lay in the corner of the wall….

The wound on her hand hadn’t fully healed yet. After a few days, it had started to scab over. As long as she kept it dry, it wouldn’t reopen.

In the morning, Eileen descended the stairs to find Will and Elsie already having breakfast downstairs. Eric and Vera were also present.

At the dining table, Will seemed oblivious to anything unusual. As usual, he was discussing company matters with Eric.

Listening to Will, it seemed that he had gradually entrusted all the important affairs of the company to Eric. Most of the significant projects were now in the latter’s hands.

“Yes, Father.”

The Friedman family? The name sounded familiar to Eileen, but she couldn’t quite recall it.

After eating half a bowl of oatmeal, Eileen put down her spoon and silently stood up. “Father. I’m off to school now.”

She spoke up,

and only then did Will shift his gaze to her. “Have you completed all the

courses in the training class?”

Eileen replied, “I’ve caught up with the three months of classes I missed. Father, rest assured, I won’t fall behind.”

The tension on Will’s face finally eased, and he nodded in satisfaction. “Go ahead, be careful

on your way.”

As soon as Eileen took her school bag from Mary, Will quickly called out to her.
