Rebirth of the Wife in Despair by Tess Munoz

Chapter 289 Not Bad

Enduring her aching body, Eileen went to the bathroom to take a shower. The warm water cascaded down. from her head, neither cold nor hot. She closed her eyes but still felt something was off. She reached down to touch the sensitive area below, finding no signs of swelling. The pain had also significantly subsided.

“Ms. Eileen, rest assured, Old Mrs. Smith is fine.”

“I’m relieved to hear that Grandma is okay. Please return to your work. I need to get going now.”
