Rebirth of the Wife in Despair

Chapter 100 What Is She Here For

Eileen contacted Alan to pick up Vera first while she took Yvette’s private car directly to Eric’s

company.

Compared to the Friedman family’s Friedman Group, the Swan family was merely an inconspicuous nouveau riche. The Friedman Group building, worth several hundred million, was located in the city center and owned by the Friedman Group. Its value was expected to increase by dozens of times in the future.

Whether it was Eric marrying into the family or Yvette entering the Swan family, Eric would. always be the winner.

The driver in the car raised the partition. Yvette had already changed out of her school uniform and was applying lipstick in front of the mirror. Letting her hair down, she turned to Eileen and asked, “Do I look good?”

A melancholic veil shrouded Eileen’s eyes, making her emotions inscrutable. She felt an indescribable sense of strangeness in her chest. Tentatively, she asked, “Do you… truly like my brother?”

Yvette nodded without any attempt to hide her feelings. Her eyes were bright, radiating light. “Of course I like him. Why else would I go to such lengths to find him?”

“He’s eight years older than you, doesn’t that bother you? By the time you graduate from college, he’ll be nearing thirty, while you’ll still be in your prime. Perhaps… in these years. you might meet someone better than him… I think you should reconsider this. Don’t give your heart away so quickly!”

Yvette expressed her disdain with a scoff. “That’s true. He’s quite old. But he’s only eight years. older, which isn’t too bad. My parents have a twelve-year age gap, and they get along just fine. My dad listens to my mom in everything, a perfect example of a henpecked husband. But I haven’t thought that far ahead. I like him for now. Who knows if I’ll still like him in the future? And I’ve never met a man who pays me so little regard.” She grabbed Eileen and said, “Eileen, do you know? He’s the first person who dared to scold me. Even though he knows. I’m from the Friedman family, he never fawns over me like others do, always agreeing with me. You have no idea how fed up I am with all the people I’ve known since childhood, all of them insincere, either after my status or the Friedman family’s money.”

Eileen was rendered speechless.

Yvette asked, “Do you think this dress looks good on me? Will it be a bit cold?”

Eileen gazed thoughtfully at the innocent and lively Yvette. She really didn’t understand Eric. How would I know if all of this wasn’t his plan? It’s possible that even their encounter was orchestrated by Eric himself.
