Rebirth of the Wife in Despair

Chapter 225

Chapter 225 I Really Envy Him

Jasper had a motive for locking Elm in the basement. He simply wanted to give Elm a minor punishment.

When Eileen disappeared last time, Jasper had arranged for someone to investigate the matter. Everyone in the neighboring building had seen Elm leaving the room Eileen had rented, and some even heard them arguing.

However, the situation was more complicated than Jasper had anticipated. Although Eileen was not living in the unit near the school, someone had noticed that a student from Petalburg High School, dressed in uniform, was frequently seen entering and leaving that

unit.

There was no one else but Elm.

Jasper didn’t care about what had happened between Eileen and Elm in the past. But now, he couldn’t tolerate any interaction between them.

Outside the hospital room, Mary felt uneasy. She looked back and saw several bodyguards in suits standing at the door. Sensing that something was wrong, she quickly picked up her phone to make a call.

After spending a night together, Mary found Ruth to be quite agreeable. After all, gifts can blind even the Swire. Ruth had just given her a token of appreciation. Although it wasn’t much, it was roughly equivalent to a day’s wage.

Elsie was personally taking care of Eileen in the hospital room. She poured a cup of hot water and placed it on Eileen’s bedside table. “You always manage to make people worry about you. Thankfully, you’re okay. Don’t be upset about the exam. There’s still a chance to do well in the midterms.”

“Yeah,” Eileen responded, her tone devoid of any emotion because the person she didn’t want to see was still there.

“Remember to rest well. If you need anything, just call for me. I’ll be outside and can hear you.”

Sorry for the trouble, Aunt Elsie.”

“We’re all family here: no need for formalities.”

Indeed, they were a family now, as Will and Elsie had just obtained their marriage certificate
