Rebirth of the Wife in Despair by Tess Munoz

Chapter 173 You Promised To Help Me

Eileen sneered, “Anyone would be afraid to sit beside a murderer!”

Is she scared? Ha! If she was scared, she wouldn’t have been so disobedient, going out on dates with another man!

He didn’t defend himself, so it seemed this matter was indeed true.

Even if he were to kill someone, he could do it flawlessly.

Eileen said, “She was with you for a year, Eric. Aren’t you sad? How could you do it? She really liked you.”

“Like? Are you jealous?” His tone was calm and indifferent.

Eileen’s eyes stared at him as if he was an emotionless monster. She wasn’t just asking about Lilian; she was asking for herself.

She wanted to know the feeling of being responsible for the death of someone she had once loved.

Did he have a moment of regret? Will he regret the decisions he made? Has he ever sincerely cared for

“People like you don’t deserve to be liked by anyone.”

A wave of shyness washed over Eileen’s face. She didn’t respond, but she noticed his resting on her.

Upon reaching Undella Mansion, the car came to a halt, and the two of them got out.

Eric locked the car and took out some fireworks from the trunk.
