Rebirth of the Wife in Despair

Chapter 195

Chapter 195 Will Not Know Without Trying

Eileen answered the phone, engaging in casual conversation about daily activities and meal choices. It seemed that Jasper had impeccable timing, as he was usually the one initiaung the calls. Eileen didn’t use her phone often, but when she remembered, she would send a text message.

After seven or eight minutes, Eileen served the cooked pasta.

“Apologies, Mr. Smith, for the party ending so late. May I have the pleasure of joining you for a drink?” A gentle and pleasant voice echoed from Eileen’s mobile phone, belonging to an elegant and wealthy woman.

Lost in thought while preparing the pasta, Eileen ended up burning her hand, which was quite unbelievable.

Elizabeth had just stepped out of the meeting room when she noticed a figure on the balcony. She approached and saw him slightly turning his body to make a phone call, so she immediately fell silent.

Jasper cast an icy, displeased glance at Elizabeth, startling her.

He was about to explain, but Eileen said, “If you’re busy, I won’t bother you. Go back to i hotel and rest early.”

The call was promptly disconnected. Eileen didn’t ask for any explanations. Even though she had heard everything, she remained magnanimous, refraining from prying or questioning.

For a moment, Jasper was overwhelmed with a myriad of emotions, feeling a subtle sense of loss quietly sweeping across his heart.

Jasper slipped his phone into his suit pocket. At that moment, his entire body, from the tips

past Elizabeth of his fingers to the tattoos on the back of his hand, felt icy cold. He walked with indifference.

Elizabeth suddenly spoke up. I’m sorry, I didn’t realize you were on the phone.”

Jasper slowly halted his steps. “Is that so? Well, you better be careful in the future. With your status, you’re not even qualified to speak to me.”

Fabian had just returned from outside, holding a pink gift box in his hand. “Mr. Smith, I’ve bought the gift Ms. Eileen requested. Ms. Eileen didn’t specify any particular flavor, so I bought one of each kind

Jasper pressed the elevator button to go downstairs. “Well done.”

Since that phone call, the two hadn’t spoken for two day’s,

However, she received the cotton candy that Jasper had someone bring back for her from Seatown.

Hulbury also had its own offerings. After trying many places, Eileen still found the taste of the cotton candy from the old spot in Seatown to be the best.

That day happened to be the day of the enrichment program exam. Without a doubt, Eileen would be the only one with the special qualifications to enter the Olympiad Math Class.

Eileen stepped forward to hand in her paper, placing it directly on top of the pile. Gilbert said to her. “Work hard. Don’t let Jacob down. He and I both think highly of you.”

Eileen replied, “I will, Mr. Campbell.”

Once the exam was over, Natalie was already waiting for Eileen at the classroom door. She seemed even more nervous than Eileen. Clutching her backpack strap, Natalie immediately approached Eileen when she saw her come out. “Eileen, was it very difficult? You’re so talented, you must have confidence in yourself. I believe you can definitely come in first.”

Eileen felt a buzzing in her ears. She had never met anyone who loved to talk as much as Natalie. Natalie was like a mosquito, ceaselessly buzzing around her ear.

Eileen asked, “Isn’t it time for lunch? Aren’t you going to eat?”

“I’m waiting for you! I want to grab a bite with you after your exam. There are a few questions. I don’t quite understand. I was hoping to ask you about them,” replied Natalie.

Eileen gazed into Natalie’s innocent, harmless eyes. Quickly, she averted her gaze. Let’s do it together then.”

“Well…

Natalie had been hanging around Eileen for quite some time. Ever since Eileen helped. Natalie out of a tight spot last time, that seemingly naive girl would always buy things for Eileen. Natalie would go to the snack shop, buy snacks, and then sneak them into Eileen’s desk when class was over. Among the pile of snacks, there was always a milk candy.

Eileen couldn’t eat it as it was too sweet.

In the past, whenever she ate something sweet, she would always get a toothache.

Eileen had once returned Natalie’s snacks, but the pitiful look on Natalie’s face made it seem as if Eileen was the one who had done something wrong

Eileen had never been so scared of someone crying before.

Rather than laughing herself, Eileen preferred to watch Natalie laugh..

If Eileen’s existence to Jasper was redemption, then Natalie and her smile were something

similar to Eileen.

Natalie’s smile was soothing to Eileen.

Eileen had seen Natalie’s grades. They were the worst in Class Two, and even in Class Six, her grades could be the lowest.

She originally thought that Elm was the one at the bottom.

During the last final exam, Natalie didn’t take the test because she was sick and absent.

As a result, Natalie’s grades weren’t on the bulletin board.

With her grades, she should have been in Class Six, but she was in Class Two instead.

Eileen didn’t ask much about the reasons behind such matters.

After they finished lunch, Eileen took Natalie to the library.

Eileen used to tutor Elm every day, but she had switched to tutoring him every Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. In reality, his grades were already good enough to get into Hulbury University. He had improved very quickly. After the last quiz, he was already ranked in the top ten of his class.

During those past few days at the library, Elm had been accompanied by his girlfriend.

As a result, Eileen felt like a third wheel.

That time, Eileen arrived at the library first. Seeing that Elm hadn’t arrived yet, she began teaching Natalie.

There, she realized that Natalie couldn’t even solve the most common questions.

Squeezing her pen, Natalie dared not lift her head. “Eileen, am I really stupid? Why can’t I learn no matter how much I’m taught?” This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

Tve switched several classes, and they all laugh at me, calling me an idiot. I wasn’t like this before. I used to be smart. However, when I was young, my family was poor, and we lived in a small mountain village. I fell ill, had a high fever, and didn’t get to take medicine on time. That damaged my brain, causing my poor memory Eileen, rest assured, I will definitely work as hard as you I can solve the questions you taught me last time now.”

Eileen asked. “Why don’t you change classes?

Natalie lowered her head so much that her face was almost touching the table. In a voice as soft as a whisper, she slowly said, “They despised me for being unintelligent and I was

constantly bullied. That’s why I had to switch classes multiple times. It was only when I was in Class Two that I faced less bullying. The teacher warned that if I changed classes again, I would be expelled.”

So, that’s the situation? Eileen reassured, “Don’t worry, no one will ever bully you again.”

“Eileen, which university are you planning to attend? Can I join you there?”

“Hulbury University.”

Natalie deflated like a balloon. “This is so difficult…”

“How will you know if you don’t give it a try?”

“I… will do my best.” Natalie was very beautiful, like a delicate doll, yet she also resembled at blank canvas, possessing qualities that many others lack.

One of those qualities was kindness.

Her kindness was evident. No matter how much others bullied her, as long as they apologized, she would always respond with a smile, saying, “It’s okay.”

That was something Eileen could never do.

Natalie didn’t have any true friends. Even if there were any, they were the kind with insir intentions, pretending to care.

The last time Eileen saw Natalie, she was helping the girls in her class by fetching hot wat carrying one cup after another. When Natalie accidentally fell, no one cared if she had been burned. Instead, they all blamed her for carelessly breaking expensive cups.
