Rebirth of the Wife in Despair

Chapter 65 Reading

Eileen set her book down and walked over. The bodyguard opened the lunchbox, revealing three layers inside.

The first layer contained roasted chestnuts, the second layer had just a few pieces of sweet and sour pork, and the third layer held a nutritious savory oatmeal with vegetables.

Ever since that night when Eileen learned about her illness, she had spent most of the nights. alone in the small pavilion downstairs of the inpatient department, wiping away her tears.

His voice carried a hint of amusement as he helplessly asked her, “Why do you always seem to be crying whenever I see you?”

Eileen’s eyes glistened with tears, a few droplets clinging to her long, dark eyelashes. When she looked at him, she saw the pain in his eyes.

He gently wiped away her tears,

He was the kindest person she had ever encountered, even though she didn’t know who he

was.

Eileen never imagined that she would find warmth in the company of a stranger she had never met before.

Since then, he would visit her from time to time. Even her three meals a day would be delivered punctually. What was truly astonishing was that it seemed like he knew exactly what she liked to eat.

Eileen didn’t know why he was being so kind to her.

The bodyguard explained, “The roasted chestnuts dish is a recipe Mr. Smith learned from your housekeeper, as is the sweet and sour pork… This is the first time Mr. Smith has cooked, so please don’t be too critical, Ms. Eileen. If the food tastes really bad, you don’t have to force yourself to eat.”

“Why are there only three pieces?” Eileen asked.

“Ms. Eileen, your serious injury hasn’t healed yet, so you shouldn’t eat too much meat. Once you’re fully recovered, Mr. Smith promises to make up for it.”

I see… Eileen took the fork handed over by the bodyguard, ate the whole thing, chewed a few times, and then suddenly paused…

Her face didn’t show much emotion. She just continued to eat slowly, savoring every bite.
