Rebirth of the Wife in Despair by Tess Munoz

Chapter 216 I Don’t Need You

In the midst of her thoughts, a phone call interrupted and scattered Eileen’s concentration.

The call came from an unfamiliar number, and Eileen didn’t know who it was, but she had a hunch deep down.

Initially, a string of unfamiliar numbers appeared on the screen, but somehow, those numbers transformed into the name “Sarah.”

Eileen wiped her eyes, then looked up.

Eileen tugged at the corner of her mouth, forcing a faint smile. Tm fine. You can go ahead”
