Rebirth of the Wife in Despair by Tess Munoz

Chapter 286 Can You Help Me Unzip

Under the pretext of sobering up. Jasper led Eileen to the rest area.

Upon entering the room, Eileen felt guilty. “I’m sorry,” she said. “The call earlier was indeed from Yvette. I didn’t tell you because I didn’t want to worry you. I didn’t expect them to show up.”

Jasper appeared somewhat tipsy, his eyes filled with exhaustion. He had been busy all day, starting preparations from four in the morning, and he hadn’t had a good rest the night before..

Eileen poured a cup of warm water and sat next to him. Jasper looked at her without any intention of blaming her. He gently stroked her long hair and said, “I know. Don’t take what they said to heart. If they bother you again and you don’t know how to handle it, let me know, okay?”

“Alright, I won’t keep things from you next time. I know you don’t like it when people discuss these matters in front of you, which is why I didn’t tell you.”

“Hug?”

Eileen moved closer, allowing him to hold her for a while.

After the engagement party, they planned to stay at a hotel because it was close to the airport. Their schedule was tight, as she was leaving for Pillere the next day.

Jacqueline had barely sat down when she headed to the rest area. However, she was stopped at the door by Fabian. “Mrs. Friedman, this is a private rest area. You cannot enter.”

“I just want to have a few words with him and then I’ll leave. Can you let me in, please? Or perhaps you could go in and tell him. I’ll wait outside for a moment.”

With an expressionless face, Fabian spoke in a professional manner. “The attendance of the Friedman family is solely on the account of Mrs. Smith. I believe you understand this very well.”

Yvette was visibly upset as she spoke. “Mr. Sherwood! In the end, you’re just an assistant to Jasper. What right do you have to say such things? If you don’t go in and ask, how would you know that Jasper doesn’t want to see me?”

Fabian replied, “You’re right. I’m just an assistant who follows Mr. Snow’s orders. I hope you won’t put me in a difficult position.”

Yvette exclaimed, “You!” She took a step forward. Her confrontational demeanor suggested that she wasn’t going to back down.

“Enough, Yvie,” said Jacqueline, who tried to stop her.

Yvette didn’t say anything. In a gentle and polite tone, Jacqueline said, “I’m already very happy that you let me stay today. Please convey my apologies to Jasper. Whatever compensation he wants, I will agree to it, even if it involves shares in Friedman Group.”

Yvette hastily said, “Mom, how can you do this?”
