Rebirth of the Wife in Despair by Tess Munoz

Chapter 232 Is It Not Enough?

Eileen was forcefully seated in the chair. Eric picked up the fork and took a bite of the food. “See? It’s not drugged.”

Eileen couldn’t understand his actions. Hasn’t he been wishing for my death? Why, then, is he now concerned about my well-being? He took my snacks away, yet he served me food, something he never used to do before.

She wasn’t sure if it was because she had gone too long without eating, but she didn’t have any appetite. Her stomach churned, and she felt nauseous.

Clutching her clothes with an expressionless face, she stared at the used fork. Even if the food wasn’t drugged, she had no desire to eat anything he brought.

She didn’t believe he would be so kind-hearted.

“I… I’m not hungry at all.” Eileen tried to stand up and escape, but the man behind her pressed her shoulder down, forcing her to remain seated.

“Do you want me to feed you personally?”

“No,” Eileen instinctively refused without even thinking about it.

With a hint of hesitation, she extended a trembling hand and grabbed a tissue from the side. She slowly wiped the fork.

Eric watched her with a dark expression on his face.

Eileen ate slowly. Eric retrieved a comb from the bathroom and combed her hair from behind. Her hair had been washed the day before and still carried a sweet scent of strawberries.

Eileen remained rigid, not daring to move. In his room, she felt out of place.

She only finished the chicken stew, hardly touching anything else.

“I’ve finished eating. I’m going to wash up.”

Eric didn’t stop his movements. He combed through her hair over and over again as it addicted. “Eat everything”
