Chapter 192 I Have Fallen In Love Now

It was half-past eight.

Eileen sat in the back seat, gazing gloomily at the scenery outside the window. “If I hadn’t left. so early, I wouldn’t have run into them.”

She had left early that day, hoping to get home and rest early.

Unexpectedly, she ran into Eric and Vera, who had also just left.

They were planning to grab a late-night snack.

Eric didn’t give Eileen a chance to refuse as he led her to the car.

Both Eric and Vera happily discussed what to eat and their plans for the weekend.

Being with them made Eileen feel like a third wheel, completely out of place.

It was as if she was an outsider, forcefully inserted into their lives.

Vera turned her head and asked, “Eileen, what would you like to eat? Should we have barbecue or go for fish?”

Eileen was lost in thought at first, but quickly snapped back to reality. She hesitated before breaking into a slight smile. “I’m fine with anything. Actually, I’m not that hungry.”

“You haven’t been home for such a long time. If I didn’t know you would finish school at the same time, we wouldn’t even have a chance to meet.”

After some thought, Vera suggested, “In that case, why don’t we go for some barbecue skewers?”

Eileen unintentionally met Eric’s deep gaze in the rearview mirror, and her heart fluttered as she quickly looked away. “Alright then.”

She had never eaten barbecue skewers before, so she didn’t know if they would upset her

stomach.

The last meal she had with Elm had already caused her quite a bit of trouble.

The three of them arrived at a slightly upscale restaurant, where quite a few people were still dining at that hour.

Just as she was about to step in, Eileen felt her phone vibrating in her pocket. She paused, glanced at the two who had already entered the shop, and pursed her lips without saying a

word.

She stepped aside and answered the phone.

Vera was holding onto Eric’s arm, waiting to order when the waiter came over. She turned around and saw that Eileen was still outside, seemingly on a phone call.

“Eric, what would you like to eat?”

“I’m fine with anything. You should order first. I’m going to have a smoke.”

Vera nodded, responding. “Alright.”

The person who called was Jasper.

Every time he called, he would ask, “When will you be back?”

“Hurry up! Remember to head back and rest after you finish eating. Around half-past ten, I’ll have Richard come pick you up.”

“Alright.” His end was very quiet, with the occasional sound of someone passing by. She was familiar with this sound. He must be at a dinner he couldn’t turn down.

After hanging up the phone, Eileen turned around to see Eric standing outside the door, a cigarette in his hand. She nervously walked past him, ready to enter the shop, when suddenly, a strong arm grabbed her, pulling her into a dark alley where the streetlights. couldn’t reach.

“What… What are you doing? Mm…”

A chilling breath swept over as Eileen felt her lips being sealed by him. Her words turned into nothing but a mumble.

She struggled, but he pressed her hands against the wall, rendering her unable to move.

Eileen felt as though she was suffocating, struggling to catch her breath. After switching hands to keep her pinned, he gripped her tightly around the waist, pulling her body close to his. The overwhelming force seemed as if it was trying to merge her into his body.

Leaning against the icy cold wall, Eileen remained fully alert.

“Let… let me go!”

After kissing for some time. Eileen seized the opportunity to bite his tongue, but not too hard. Panting heavily, both of them had their noses touching, and all she could do was express he: resistance through her eyes.

Taking advantage of his loosened grip. Eileen pushed him away

Eric, as if he were watching a small rabbit struggling to escape in vain, reached out and grabbed her.

Eileen felt herself being held back by her collar, her body being pulled back towards him. He held her captive in his arms. “It’s been a while. You’ve put on quite a bit of weight.”

In the darkness, his features were indiscernible, yet one could imagine the playful glint in his

eyes.

“It’s none of your business!”

Eileen felt a pinch at her waist, his fingers gently squeezing her flesh. He was kissing her neck and a tingling sensation, like countless tiny electric currents, spread throughout her body.

In truth, Eileen wasn’t fat at all, she just had a bit more flesh on her. Before, Eileen was indeed very thin, to the point where people thought her waist could easily be broken in bed. Her skills had also improved quite a bit since then.

“You’re quick-witted, thinking that by running off to the Smith family, I wouldn’t be able to find you, huh?”

Eileen felt his lecherous hand on her chest. A forceful squeeze from him elicited a sensuous whimper from her. It wasn’t a reflexive response from her body. Instead, it was one caused by pain.

He had exerted too much force.

Eileen held onto that burning hand, preventing him from moving recklessly. She pushed him away forcefully. “Eric, enough! Aren’t you afraid Vera will find out? Don’t forget that she’s

still here.”

“Are you scared?”

Eileen sneered, “Yes, I’m not only scared but also disgusted. As if having Vera wasn’t enough, you still do this to me. Eric… when will you change your fickle ways? She likes you a lot, and you like her too. If… you truly care for her, you shouldn’t be doing this. It will really hurt her.”

Eric’s tone deepened. “I can’t believe you actually said that.”

“Because I don’t want to upset her, nor do I want to betray her. I’ve made this very you that this is the end. You wouldn’t want Vera to know and be upset either, right?”

clear to

Eric let her go, and Eileen smoothed out the wrinkles on her clothes. As she stepped out of the darkness, she said, “From now on… we won’t see each other again.

When Eileen walked into the restaurant, she ordered a few non-spicy dishes.

After finding Vera, she sat across from her.

“Where is Eric?”

“I’m not sure, I didn’t see him.”

“Why are you back so late?” Vera asked.

“I was on the phone,” Eileen replied calmly, changing the subject. “What did you order?”

“There’s a wide variety here, including your favorites. Try this juice. It tastes really good.”

Eric arrived shortly after. He told Vera that he had gone to buy a pack of cigarettes,

“But Eric, I thought you didn’t like smoking in the past,” Vera said.

“Ive grown fond of it now,” Eric replied.

Eileen couldn’t bear to stay in front of them for even half a minute.

Once everything was served, Eileen took a few casual bites.

She then contacted Richard and gave him an address. He arrived in about forty-five mi

Holding her backpack, Eileen left without any hesitation at all. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Stepping outside, she took a bottle of lemon water from the server and used it to wash off the overpowering scent of spices from her body.

Richard stepped forward, took Eileen’s schoolbag, and got into the car.

Vera looked out the window at the departing car, then turned her gaze toward Eric. He picked up a string of non-spicy corn and began to eat.

She somehow felt that something was off with the atmosphere but couldn’t quite put finger on it.

“Today, I heard from Yvette that Eileen might soon be marrying Jasper and becoming the wife of the CEO of Smith Corporation. Moreover, it seems like the Smith family has also accepted her.”

“Eric, does Eileen… really not like you anymore?”
