Rebirth of the Wife in Despair by Tess Munoz

Chapter 229 How To Heal

The place where she was staying was quite close to the school, and she hadn’t left the building for many days. Looking at the bustling, lively streets, Eileen’s mood brightened considerably. Without a phone, Eileen realized there was no one she needed to worry about.

She didn’t have many friends to reach out to, so her world was quieter than anyone else’s.

Before she knew it, Eileen found herself in a familiar alleyway shop. It was the same place where Elm had once taken her to eat.

Eileen didn’t know why she ended up here.

As she was about to turn around and leave, a woman in her forties or fifties came out from inside. She was carrying a basin of water and immediately recognized Eileen. “You look familiar… You’re Elm’s friend, aren’t you?”

Eileen nodded.

“Perfect timing. He gave me something for you last time. You haven’t come to collect it for days. Wait here, I’ll go get it for you.”

Eileen didn’t know what it was.

The last time she came here for a meal, she had only seen the boss, not the boss’ wife. Hence, Eileen didn’t know how the woman recognized her.

After a short wait, the lady boss came out with a gift box wrapped in black and adorned with a pink ribbon. “This is from Elm before he left. He asked me to give it to you. I thought you weren’t going to pick it up after all this time.”

Eileen latched onto several keywords. “He left? Where did he go?”

The lady boss said, “He said he’s taking his mother to Remdik for medical treatment. It might be a long time before he returns. Didn’t
