Chapter 182 Just Like A Couple

Vera played with the sunflower bouquet in her hands. “What a shame. I bought Eileen’s favorite flowers, but she’s no longer here. But I think Mr. Smith is quite nice. Eileen must be very happy with him!”

Vera noticed that Eric’s face was expressionless. However, his eyes were like a deep abyss, filled with a chilling coldness. Without saying a word, he turned and left.

After Eileen’s departure, there was silence for two weeks.

During that time, Jasper stayed by her side, helping her recover.

He waited until she was fully recovered and able to leave her bed.

Sunlight streamed in through the floor-to-ceiling windows, illuminating the bed. Eileen, dressed in a thin nightgown, her arm bathed in sunlight, looked fair and delicate. Every detail, from her hair to her fingernails, was exquisite. Her slightly curled long hair was tied into a twist braid, resting on her left shoulder. A crescent-shaped necklace hung on her exposed, sensual collarbone.

Her face had regained its color, and her thin lips seemed to be tinted with the hue of a poppy flower, alluring.

Outside the window, the branches and leaves were lush, with tender buds sprouting in several places.

The family doctor examined Eileen and removed his stethoscope. “Ms. Eileen, you have fully

recovered.”

“Thank you, Doctor,” Eileen said.

The doctor nodded. “You’re welcome.”

Jasper sat beside her on the left side of the bed, holding her hand and gently caressing the back of it. “I have already informed the Swan family, so there’s no need to worry. Do you want to go to school tomorrow?”

Resting her head on his shoulder, Eileen said, “I will go tomorrow! I also want to go walk. It has been a while since I last went out.”

“Alright. I will accompany you.”
