Rebirth of the Wife in Despair

Chapter 275

Chapter 275 Think About Her

Did he make a move on Yvette so quickly?

For the sake of the Friedman family’s connections?

It’s still about money and status!

What’s the difference between Yvette’s current life and her past life? Falling into his hands, she would only be living a life worse than death.

Suddenly, Eric took a step forward, brushing away the stray hair on her forehead. This unexpected move caught her off guard.

“It’s been such a long time. Aren’t you going to greet me, Eileen?”

Eileen forgot to dodge, causing Eric to smile faintly. His gaze was profoundly deep, harboring a potent mix of suppressed aggression and insanity.

Eileen could discern the true nature of his character hidden behind that hypocritical smile.

He was no different from beasts and animals.

Eileen took a step back, her gaze shifting away from him. “I have some things to attend to. I’ll be leaving first.”

Natalie glanced at Eric. When their eyes met, his smile suddenly vanished, replaced by a fierce look. Natalie was taken aback. At that moment, she felt goosebumps all over her body. It was terrifying.

“Eileen!”

Natalie followed her, stealthily whispering into Eileen’s ear, “Eileen, is Yvette dating your brother?”

Eileen wondered, Does this have anything to do with her? Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

Natalie was playing with her finger as she asked, “She’s with your brother, and you’re with Yvette’s brother. Eileen, I’m so confused right now.”

Her innocent, bewildered eyes were filled with curiosity.

Eileen quickly covered her mouth. “Stop talking.”

They hadn’t left yet, and they had been speaking so loudly. The people behind them might have already heard everything.

Eileen was tall with long legs, so Natalie had to jog all the way just to keep up.

Yvette curled her red lips, looking at the mature and restrained older man beside her with interest Mr. Snow, haye you given it any thought? Would you like to come with me to Atharta? You only need to accompany me for half a year, but of course if you think that’s too short, you can wait until I finish my business management studies, then we can return together! You know, others wouldn’t miss such a great opportunity. After all, I have both money and power, and I can give you anything you want In the future everyone in Hulbury will be looking up to you. I must say, you’re quite good looking Yvette slowly trailed her red-painted index finger down his black shirt, stopping at his abdomen “Do you, by any chance, have a sexy six pack underneath? How about you give in to me. Mr Snow? Ill show you what it means to live a good life!

Yvette’s tone was frivolous and arrogant. She treated Eric as if he was just a toy.

However, the man in front of her seemed uninterested in her every move. Eric’s expression remained indifferent. He caught her restless hand, his wolf-like eyes glancing at her chest, then shifting to meet her eyes. “If you’re looking to toy with someone, Ms. Friedman, I’m afraid you’ve got the wrong person.”

Eric casually put his hand in his pocket and left without looking back.

Pressing the car key to unlock it, he got into the driver’s seat, sat down, and without looking back, he drove off. All Yvette could see was the exhaust fumes of the car.

For Eric, ascending to power and status was simply a matter of time.

But for now, there was something he wanted even more.

Looking at the car that left, Yvette seemed somewhat lost. The reason she left was to forget him in some other way.

Yvette herself found it unbelievable. How could she have fallen for a man who was much older than her?

With her attributes, she had plenty of choices. Any man would come running at her slightest beckoning. She had always gotten everything she wanted with ease. Now, for the first time, she had fallen head over heels for someone and was experiencing the taste of rejection.

This feeling was far from pleasant. When she couldn’t see him, he was all she could think about. If she didn’t do something to distract herself, these thoughts would slowly consume her mind, pervading her entire nervous system, every cell, as if he was the only thing that existed.

She had thought she could let go.

Who does he really like, Vera or Eileen? Eileen is already set to marry Jasper. If it’s Vera… He has never looked at Vera the

way he looks at Eileen before… Perhaps his feelings for Vera are merely familial love. As long as Eileen marries Jasper, then… I still have a chance! Eric’s strength is simply not enough to contend with the entire Smith family. Regardless of whether Mom agrees or not, if I want something, there’s nothing I can’t have.

At Smith Corporation, Fabian was hesitating whether or not to share this news with Jasper. He was afraid that Jasper might be too soft-hearted. His engagement ceremony with Eileen was approaching, and he couldn’t afford a repeat of what happened last time when Nancy seized the opportunity to forcefully break them apart.

In the end, Fabian chose to keep this matter a secret. For the future of the corporation, even if he were to be blamed later, he was willing to shoulder it all by himself.

He was all set to enter the room and submit the thousand-word document. He knocked on the door, and as he pushed it open, he saw a man dressed in a blue shirt and black suit pants standing by the floor-to- ceiling window with one hand in his pocket. The man’s expression was serious as he spoke on the phone. “What kind of game are you planning to play this time?”

“Mr. Smith?”

Jasper furrowed his brows. “Who are you?”

The other party said, “I’m calling from the police station. We received an alert from Hepta Psychiatric Hospital in Hulbury. The suspect, Nancy Mulligan, killed someone during her treatment at the hospital. During our pursuit, Nancy’s car was hit by a large truck with brake failure and plunged off a cliff. We are

currently doing our utmost to locate her. We found her phone, and she happened to be on a call with

you…”

Jasper was struck with disbelief. Just five minutes ago, he had received a call from an unfamiliar number.

It was a call from Nancy.

“Congratulations! You will soon be engaged and have a perfect family. I believe you will be a great father when you get married and have children. Jasper… I have never forgotten about you in these ten years. You know… I love you more than anyone else. I am even willing to sacrifice my life for you! Because… in this world, you are the only one I have! If I were to die, would you still be with me in the next life?”

Jasper then heard a sudden loud noise. Instead of receiving a response from Nancy, he heard the police delivering the news of Nancy’s accident.

“Mr. Smith?” Fabian called out..

With a sense of urgency, Jasper pushed Fabian aside. “I need to step out for a moment. You take over this meeting and report back to me once it is finished.”

Nancy had started causing trouble again.

Fabian couldn’t bear to watch him continue making the same mistakes. “Mr. Smith, for Ms. Eileen’s sake, you can’t go! Think about her!”
