Rebirth of the Wife in Despair

Chapter 262 All She Asks For Is Tranquility

Will looked at Eric with a puzzled expression when he mentioned merging with Caerulus Corporation.

Eric’s lips curled into a faint smile, a storm hidden in his eyes, as he calmly responded, “I’m just an employee at Caerulus Corporation. It would be better for you to discuss this directly with my stepfather, Mr. Smith. I don’t have the authority to make decisions on this matter.”

Confused, Will furrowed his brow and asked Eileen, “What’s going on here?”

Eileen, feeling flustered, replied, “I’m not aware of this matter, Father. He must be drunk.” She subtly squeezed Jasper’s hand and gently shook her head, saying, “Jasper, Eric will take good care of the company. Can we stop discussing this? Let me take you back to your room to rest.”

Jasper, ignoring Will’s increasingly gloomy look, drank the red wine in his glass and continued, “Father and Mr. Snow can discuss this matter. Once you two have reached an agreement, feel free to come find me at Smith Corporation. I’d be more than happy to make Caerulus Corporation the second largest subsidiary of Smith Corporation.”

Eileen then escorted the drunken Jasper back to his room. He rarely socialized and had little tolerance for alcohol.

By the time Eileen helped him onto the bed, he was already completely drunk, his hand resting over his eyes. Eileen tucked him in and said, “I’ll go make you a hangover remedy. Just bear with the discomfort for

a bit.”

As she was about to leave, Jasper grabbed her wrist.

Eileen turned to look at him and asked, “What’s wrong?”

“Did what I just say upset you? You don’t want me to take over Eric’s position at Caerulus Corporation, do you?”

“No, you’re overthinking it.”
