Rebirth of the Wife in Despair by Tess Munoz

Chapter 129 What’s Wrong With You

Richard halted Eileen, who wondered why Jasper was at the school at this hour.

Unable refuse, she reluctantly took the seat behind the passenger seat.

The car’s air conditioning was pleasantly warm.

Sitting in the car, Jasper appeared pale and weak. He coughed a few times, covering his mouth with a clenched fist. His breathing sounded irregular, as if he was in discomfort.

Silence filled the car. After a while, Eileen broke the eerie silence. “Why are you here today? If you’re not feeling well, why didn’t you go to the hospital?” she asked with concern.

“It’s just a common cold, nothing serious,” Jasper replied.

Eileen nodded in response.

Then, Jasper asked softly, “Yesterday, I heard from Yvette that you weren’t here when she came to pick you up. Where… where did you go?”

“Pick me up?” Eileen was somewhat puzzled.

Isn’t he here to pick up Yvette?

Jasper nodded. “Yvette was worried because school ended late, so she called him. Didn’t you run into him?”

Jasper gazed at her, as if trying to discern something from her very being.

So that’s what Yvette said!

Eileen never called Eric to come and pick her up.

He knew she had already left the condominium.

Eileen felt it was better to avoid unnecessary trouble. To her, this wasn’t a big deal at all.

Yvette was probably only using her as a shield, an excuse to avoid confronting Jasper.

Eileen responded calmly, “My phone ran out of battery, so I didn’t receive any calls. Yesterday, I accompanied a sick friend to the clinic after school. I must have missed it!”

Did he come here to ask me these questions? But it shouldn’t be the case. It’s such a trivial matter, not enough for him to come and question me. Perhaps Yvette knew something, or maybe she saw something Did she see me leaving the school with Elm and then tell Jasper about it? Did Jasper come looking for me

because of that

Is your friend feeling better now?”

Much better replied Eileen with a faint smile. Although she wore a smile, she felt uncorortable as it seemed like Jasper was interrogating her.

The way he spoke made Eileen feel like she had done something unforgivable.

The pressure was overwhelming, making it difficult for her to catch her breath.

Thank you for your concern. Oh, by the way, my class is about to start. I need to go. You should probably head back. Don’t forget to take your medicine,” she said.

Jasper nodded, his eyes filled with tenderness. “Okay.”

He continued to gaze at Eileen’s retreating figure.

You’re saying thank you? It’s only been a few days. Have we become so distant? Eileen… Why are you hiding things from me? Are you so desperate to hide your affairs with Elm from me? There are some words that I want to hear straight from you, or is it that… you have fallen for him?

As Eileen got out of the car, the smile on her face vanished in an instant.
