Rebirth of the Wife in Despair by Tess Munoz

Chapter 299 Desire Eileen

Eric opened the passenger door of the car, only to find that Eileen remained motionless.

“Where are the others? Why are you the only one here?”

Eileen hesitated, reluctant to get in the car

“The matters of the household are not to be taken lightly Father is seriously ill, and we cannot let even a hint of this leak out. Also, don’t expect an outsider to come to our aid

“Why are you so afraid that I will harm you?”

Noticing his invasive and possessive gaze. Eileen took a step back. No matter how she thought about it, she felt that Eric’s invitation was a trap she was being lured into.

After the engagement banquet. Eileen hadn’t seen Eric again. He had been relieved of his position, yet his face still bore an expression of calm and tranquility as if nothing had happened.

“Stop wasting time, and get in the car!” Eric’s attitude changed rapidly, his narrowed eyes radiating a

warning.

Eileen was cautious and alert around him, but in the end, she still got in the car.

Eric inched closer to her, and Eileen knew what he intended. She quickly buckled her seatbelt first, saying. “I can do it myself”

Eric’s mouth curved into an inscrutable smile, his fingers lightly lifting a strand of her hair. “Did you get a

haircut?”

With feigned calm, Eileen averted her gaze and casually responded. “Yes, because it’s too long.”

In reality, she didn’t cut much off, just the split ends caused by the weather. Who knew that Eric would pay

such close attention?

The more he behaved this way, the more Eileen felt a numbness in her heart.

“Don’t cut it again,” he said, tucking her hair behind her ear.

Eileen gently moved his hand away. “Eric, you’re being too controlling. It’s my hair, after all. Let’s just focus on driving”

“Alright” Eric laughed, his gaze casually drifting over her fair, delicate hand adorned with a simple silver ring. His eyes held a hidden tumult, like the vast sea stirring up colossal waves.

He suppressed his emotions and quickly drove away from the airport.

There weren’t many people traveling by plane at night. Eileen was still not accustomed to the time difference in Hulbury. She was still very alert and fully awake throughout the journey. Watching the trees rapidly receding, Eileen suddenly spoke. Father has always been health-conscious, abstaining from smoking and drinking. How did he fall ill?”

“Are you suspecting me?”

Eileen stated. ‘Eric, you don’t need to beat around the bush with me. I know you’re behind this. I’ve never understood why you won’t let him go. Father had already planned to hand over Caerulus Corporation to

you. Yet, why can’t you let him be? Father values you more than me. I simply can’t think of any other reason why you would want to harm our father.”

In this life, Vera did not die.

If Vera’s death in the previous life was the reason for Eric to take action against the Swan family, then what about this time?

Vera was perfectly fine. Eileen had changed Jasper and also altered the fate of Vera. Logically speaking, Eric had no reason to take action.

In her previous life, she didn’t understand.

In this life, she still didn’t understand why Eric chose to act this way.

Eric drove the car closer to a fork in the road. This place was devoid of surveillance cameras and was perfectly concealed in the shadows. Even vehicles passing by with their high beams on would not easily spot it.

He stopped the car. “Don’t you understand yet, Eileen? If one were to say that everything that I have done was all for you…”

Upon hearing these words, Eileen felt it was so absurd that she almost wanted to laugh. “You don’t need to tell me all these grandiose words. You’ve never done anything for the sake of someone else. Do you think I would believe what you’re saying, Eric? Besides… I don’t need you to do anything for me right now. You have Vera and also Yvette… Isn’t that enough for you?”
