Chapter 185 If Only You Could Grow Up Faster

“Why are you here?” Eileen asked, clutching her chest and breathing heavily.

“Richard called me and told me you weren’t home yet. I figured you were still at school. I was worried because it was getting late, so I came to check on you,” Jasper said with a slight smile. “I didn’t expect the students here to be so enthusiastic.”

The two took the elevator down. Eileen couldn’t help but glance back at Fabian, who hadn’t. come down yet.

“It’s difficult for ordinary people to catch a glimpse of you given your status. From now on, just give me a call.”

He added, “The call didn’t go through.”

Eileen gasped as she belatedly realized one thing. “I turned off my phone because of the test. I’m sorry! You don’t have to wait for me in the future. You’re already very busy with work.”

“How can I be at ease leaving you alone?”

A faint smile graced the corners of Eileen’s lips.

No one had ever been so kind to her.

“Fabian parked the car at the school gate. It’s a bit far. Do you want me to carry you?”

Eileen shook her head. “No need. I’m not tired, just a bit sleepy. Let’s go home.”

As soon as she finished speaking, she felt herself being lifted off the ground. Jasper bent. down and hoisted her up in his arms. Startled, Eileen hooked her arms around his neck. “Some students are still

in class. We might be seen.”

“Let them be. What can they say about a boyfriend carrying his girlfriend?”

Eileen was concerned about his legs. They hadn’t fully recovered and needed to recover gradually. “If you’re tired, put me down.”

“I’m fine. I’m not tired.”

The quiet path was lit by streetlights. It seemed like Blake snowflakes were falling through the light.

Jasper walked slowly, wishing the road could be a little longer.

A snowflake fell on his shoulder, and he looked up.

“It’s snowing. Eileen.”

Not hearing her response, he lowered his gaze to the person in his arms, who had already fallen asleep.

Snow fell on her lashes. Her skin was as delicate and fair as the snowflake, resembling Sleeping Beauty from the fairytale.

When he stepped out of the campus, Fabian had already driven the car over.

In the black sedan not far away, Vera asked, “Isn’t the person being carried Eileen? Why is she still at school so late? Eric, is Eileen really not going home?”

Eric’s expression turned dark, his face suddenly revealing an indescribable chill. “It’s her own home. Why would she not return?”

Eileen was sound asleep and didn’t even wake up when they arrived at the Smith residence. Jasper carried her upstairs, with Fabian following behind, carrying her backpack.

As soon as Eileen touched the bed, she instinctively rolled into the blanket. Elm tucked her in, closed the door softly, and went out. He turned off her phone in the backpack.

“Tomorrow, request an hour off from school for her. Around half past seven, ask the housekeeper to wake her up.”

“An hour? What if Ms. Eileen gets upset after sleeping in and missing classes?”

“Her health is more important than anything else.”

She had undergone surgery. Despite resting at home for half a month, she was still weak. If it hadn’t been for the meticulous care she received in the past couple of weeks, she would have undoubtedly suffered from complications later on.

“Do we need to continue preparing the medicine?”

“She must take the medicine continuously for the last few weeks.”

“Yes, Mr. Smith.”

In the darkness, the young lady who was originally sound asleep woke up. She heard their conversation clearly.

Eileen held her chest and felt her heart beating irregularly. Is this what it feels like to be cared for by someone?

In her past life, Eileen caught a chill in the night and developed a high fever of thirty-nine degrees Celsius. When Eric couldn’t find her after coming back home from work, he began to

TH

question the housekeeper about her condition. It was then that Eric found out she was ill

He simply said, “It’s just a cold. She won’t die.”

Indeed, she wouldn’t have died. If it weren’t for the housekeeper discovering her fever had reached forty degrees Celsius the next day, he wouldn’t have called the doctor to come and

treat her.

It was after this incident that she began suffering from arthritis.

Every day, she had to consume a significant amount of medicinal tonics. As the saying goe even medicine was toxic in large amounts. Coupled with her chronic illness, this was how Eileen gradually became unhealthy.

So it turns out I’m not alone after all. There are people who care about me.

The next day, as expected, she overslept.

If I continue skipping the morning self-study session, Ms. Hayes will probably talk to m can’t be late tomorrow.

“Ms. Eileen, didn’t Mr. Jasper come down with you?”

Eileen sipped her medicine. Sweetened with honey, it wasn’t too bitter.

“Is he still sleeping?”

“I haven’t seen him come down.”

”וויד

go get him,” said Eileen, having just finished her meal.

Upon reaching the upstairs, Eileen noticed the door was ajar. She raised her hand and knocked lightly. The door swung open immediately.

The guy in the room had no shirt on, showing off his muscular physique. Tattoos covered his hands all the way up to his neck. Eileen had never seen his upper torso naked like this before. The tattoos consisted of unusual patterns, not resembling any animal designs.

Eileen immediately averted her gaze. As if noticing her behind him, Jasper picked up a grey shirt from the bed and started buttoning it up. “Aren’t you afraid of being late?” he asked.

“Why are you late today too?”

I’m going on a business trip to Seatown for a week. I won’t be here during this time. I’ll have Richard supervise you to take medicine regularly.”

‘Do you… need me to pack your clothes for the business trip?” She wanted to do something,

for him, considering all that he had done for her.

“Of course.”

Since they were already late, a few more minutes wouldn’t make much of a difference.NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

She had already gotten used to doing these things.

Eileen closed the suitcase and stood up, feeling a hand around her waist lifting her. She tensed up. “What’s the matter?” she asked.

“I wish you could grow up faster,” he whispered in her ear, his breath warm.

Turning around, she reached out to fix his tie. “Let’s go downstairs. Otherwise, I won’t even make it to my first class.”

The man leaned down and kissed her lips. “I’ll bring you a gift when I come back.”

“Okay.”

Eileen went to school but still couldn’t make it to her first class on time.

Jasper wanted to walk her to the school gate, but she quickly declined.

She didn’t want a repeat of last night.

The first class was a test, so Eileen hurriedly entered through the back door and took out her pencil case to start solving the problems.

With only half an hour left, Eileen was only able to complete half of her work, leaving the essay unwritten.

After class, Eileen accidentally dropped her eraser on the ground,

As she bent down to pick it up, Vera had already picked it up for her.

“Thank you.”

Vera placed the eraser on the table. “Eileen, did you give the notebook I gave you to Elm?”

Eileen suddenly remembered when Vera mentioned it.

“Sorry, I have your notebook with me. Don’t worry, I’ll give it back to you tomorrow. Do you need it? You can use mine for now.”

Jasper had compiled Eileen’s notes for her. They contained key points for this year’s college entrance exam, meticulously recorded with detailed explanations. Jasper even highlighted.

the most important points for her.
