Rebirth of the Wife in Despair

Chapter 191

Chapter 191 Aiming Beyond Te

If this trend continued, Elm’s concentration would suffer, affecting not only him but also Elm.

Leaving the library, Eileen wondered if Elm would start bringing his girlfriend along more often in the future.

Who knew what was going on in his mind?

The heart of a man was a mystery.

Eileen’s life was routine in Jasper’s absence. Time flew by, and as the school day ended, Eilee packed her backpack. Just as she was about to leave, Vera suddenly approached.

“Eileen, are you free? It’s been a while since Eric and I shared a meal with you. How a heading home together tonight? I’ll cook; I promise you’ll love it. Sharon taught me a i about cooking before.”

Eileen declined, “I have a class later; I won’t be able to make it.”

“Class? Is it the enrichment program?”

“Yes.”

“Why not come back to the Olympiad Math Class?”

Eileen pursed her lips, about to say something when Yvette walked over and sneered at Vera. “You’re really foolish. I remember who came last in today’s test. It was you! Only Eileen, for the sake of your friendship, gave you the opportunity to remain in the Olympiad Math Class. by claiming to be heading to some kind of enrichment program. You’ve got some nerve to ask her to come back to the Olympiad Math Class!”

Vera remained indifferent, smiling faintly but not saying anything.

Eileen, picking up her backpack, spoke up for Vera. “I go to the enrichment program because it helps me aim to become the top scholar. I didn’t do it for anyone.”

Yvette chuckled. “Eileen, since when did you care about rankings?” The animosity in her eyes. toward Eileen seemed to have diminished.

Eileen looked at the few remaining people, one of them with thick glasses, standing tall at over six feet. He appeared somewhat shy-a quiet and reserved boy named Benjamin Raker who ranked first in the entire Petalburg High School. He was the competitor Eileen wanted to

surpass.

The six students left behind were all elite members of the Olympiad Math Class and abo part of the top seven students in Petalburg High School

One of Benjamin’s good friends, Jason Barley, threw his arm around Benjamin’s shop lider “Benny, it looks like your first-place position is secure from now on. I used to be right behand

and now even the second spot has been snatched away. I’m so heartbroken! Even though there’s only one person in between us, I still feel the great distance

you,

Benjamin, with an indifferent expression, pushed away the person leaning on his shoulder. He walked up to Eileen. “See you at the International Mathematical Olympiad

Eileen nodded. “Sure.”

After speaking, Benjamin left the classroom without glancing elsewhere. Outside, Jasor voice could still be heard. “Do you think this year’s dial-stream top scorer in Hulbury come from our school? I remember last year or the year before, the top scorers in both and sciences were from Cloudbury Public School”

Benjamin replied. “I’m not sure, we’ll know once the exams are done.”

“Anyway, it won’t be me. It’ll either be you or Eileen.”

Eileen then said to Vera, “I’m leaving

The enrichment program followed a teaching style similar to Jacob’s. Sometimes, the tear would get inspired and delve into more advanced topics. However, this particular topic involved mostly arithmetic methods.

The compact study time left Eileen with hardly a moment to pause.

There was no time to think about anything else.

Jasper would send her messages every day, reminding her to eat and take her medicine, even though she had mostly recovered.

At Seatown, Jasper was at the venue, raising his glass and toasting with several influential figures in the business arena. Most of the people surrounded Jasper, exchanging bustness cards, and many were keenly interested in the Smith Corporation.

His achievements were evident to discerning eyes, marking him as an excellent heir to the Smith family.

With the rich and powerful clambering to please him, the beautiful socialites were not far behind

but also from socialites and heiresses eager to share a drink with him. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

However, Gavin skillfully intercepted all such attempts.

When Jasper had his accident and lost the use of his legs, it made headlines and stirred up a storm. Now, seeing him standing, it was clear that his legs had been healed.

If Jasper didn’t want to drink a particular toast, no one dared to force him.

The banquet concluded at nine o’clock.

However, at eight, the lights at the banquet hall suddenly went out, plunging the entire sp into darkness.

The next moment, several beams of blue light illuminated the stage. A woman dressed it elegant, long, navy-blue gown sat at a piano. As she began playing, the tumultuous noise in the room immediately hushed.

The audience silently watched her on stage.

With her hair flowing like seaweed, she accompanied the ethereal music, evoking thoughts mermaids in the deep sea.

Under the stage, murmurs arose. “Could this be the heiress from the Raker family who just returned from studying abroad? I haven’t seen her in years, but she’s truly exceptional! In all of Seatown, I doubt anyone can surpass this heiress.”

As the performance reached its conclusion, Elizabeth Raker gracefully lifted her skirt in acknowledgment, eliciting applause from many in the audience.

Observers keenly noticed that Elizabeth’s gaze was directed at someone, and all eyes followed her line of sight.

To everyone’s surprise, the object of her attention was none other than Jasper.

Fabian swiftly retrieved information about Elizabeth on his phone, providing Jasper with the details.

Remarkably, they were high school classmates, although Jasper had no recollection of it.

With only half an hour remaining until the event’s conclusion, it became apparent to onlookers that the heiress of the Raker family regarded Jasper with more than casual interest.

However, Jasper seemed indifferent to her advances.

From the beginning to the end, Jasper maintained an icy and distant demeanor, radiating an

r

aura of restrained aloofness that

As Elizabeth descended from the stage, she walked over to Gregory. “Dad.”

Gregory Raker, one of Seatown’s most influential merchants with connections to the authorities, gazed proudly at his daughter.

“Let me introduce you. This is Jasper Smith, the CEO of Hulbury’s Smith Corporation. And this is my daughter, Elizabeth.”

The two exchanged glances, nodded, and greeted each other.

Gregory said, “You’ve returned from abroad, and you didn’t even say hello to your father? You truly surprised me!”

“As long as you’re happy”

At that moment, Fabian leaned in close to Jasper’s ear, covering his mouth, and whispered something.

Jasper’s gaze briefly hardened as he checked his phone in his pocket, where there were unread messages from her and a missed call.

“Did Eileen send you any messages?”

“Ms. Eileen did not.”

Without saying goodbye, Jasper abruptly left the venue-an action that was considered impolite according to proper etiquette.

Observing his swift departure, the gleam of a smile faded from Elizabeth’s eyes.
