Chapter 519

Chapter 519:

“I have money,” Eileen said, pulling a card from her purse and handing it to Milford. “Use mine. You can pay me back after you graduate and start earning.”

The sight of the card made Milford’s eyes water, but he gently pushed it back toward her. “My life’s difficult, but I can manage. I don’t want to trouble you anymore. The principal spoke to me yesterday, and several professors will mentor me one-on-one. I might even graduate next year. It’s only six months away, right? I can do it…”

Milford’s voice trailed off, and before he could finish, he suddenly collapsed backward.

Eileen gasped, instinctively reaching out to catch him, but they both ended up on the floor.

Eileen’s shoulder hit the floor hard, the impact sending a jolt of pain through her body. Her hand inadvertently brushed Milford’s cheek. The heat radiating from his skin felt like a furnace blast, and Eileen yanked her hand back as if burned.
