Rebirth of the Wife in Despair

Chapter 207

Chapter 207 She Actually Dared To Come Back

Upon returning to the classroom, Eileen was surprised to see that Vera had been discharged from the hospital so soon.

Since the Olympiad Math competition was scheduled for the following week, Eileen had to rejoin the team that day.

If she successfully passed the exam, all she needed to do next was complete the remaining courses, and graduation would be just a matter of time.

With that, she had already accomplished more than half of what she wanted to do.

On that day, Eileen was busy with her usual affairs. In the afternoon, Natalie invited her to have lunch. On the way to the cafeteria, Eileen noticed that quite a few people were staring at her.

However, she realized that the girls who were looking at her were all holding a magazine. Eileen didn’t pay much attention to what others were doing. After finishing her meal, she had to attend her Olympiad Math Class,

Natalie remarked, “Eileen, don’t you think they’re acting strange? It’s like they’re all looking at you!”

Eileen had the same feeling. She asked curiously, “Is there something on my face?”

“No, not at all. You look great every day!” Natalie sincerely complimented her.

After reaching the cafeteria and finishing her meal, Eileen didn’t have time to go over Natalie’s lessons with her. All she could do was give Natalie her own notes, which she had reorganized to make it easier for her to remember. If Natalie could remember everything. passing the test would be no problem at all.

When she arrived at the Olympiad Math Class, Vera was already there. The moment Jacob saw Eileen, happiness was written all over his face. He had even personally cleared a vacant

seat for her.

“Benjamin has gone to fetch the book for you, so just wait a moment!”

“Alright.” Eileen put down her backpack and took her seat.

“You truly didn’t disappoint me. Teachers from other schools have been complaining to me that the second-ranked student in the entire grade has managed to secure the only available spot The last time I attended a meeting, they were talking about you. You’ve really made me proud Jacob was brimming with pride. In his heart, he was secretly thrilled, thinking that he might finally be recognized as an outstanding teacher that year

Benjamin and Jason walked into the classroom. Benjamin placed the materials on Eileen’s desk. She was sitting on the first seat of the second row, with Benjamin to her left and Jason to her right.

“Ah, who would have thought there would come a day when both of us friends would be separated.”

Benjamin spoke to Eileen in a casual tone. “Welcome back.”

Eileen nodded. “Thank you.” She tilted her head slightly, and the corner of her eye unintentionally caught Vera’s gaze. Eileen pretended not to see it and turned her attention. back to her book. This wasn’t the first time Vera had given her such a look, but it made her feel as if Vera was a stranger to her.

She couldn’t describe the distant and seemingly hostile look in Vera’s eyes.

It was a look that was inconsistent with Vera’s personality.

When the class began, Eileen understood all the content taught by Jacob, thanks to Jasper. The teachers he hired had taught her most of the lessons in advance.

Meanwhile, on the ground floor of Smith Corporation building, a figure in dark attire, wearing sunglasses, heavy mascara, and a thick layer of slightly powdery foundation on her face, was chewing gum. She looked quite out of place compared to the average person, especially with her hands and neck covered in tattoos.

The receptionist looked at her, slightly surprised, but also finding her somewhat familiar. “May I have your name, please?”

Nancy lowered her head to remove her glasses, her red lips curling into a smile. “How come you don’t recognize me?”

Upon seeing the familiar face, the receptionist exclaimed in surprise, “Ms. Mulligan? Are… are you here to see the CEO?”

“Isn’t that obvious? I’m going up first, so don’t call him. I’ve been here before, understand?”

The receptionist replied, “Yes, understood.”

Adorned in a pair of long boots, Nancy strode toward the elevator reserved for the CEO.

The new receptionist on the side curiously asked, “Who is this person? Why is she dressed so strangely?

All the long-time employees at Smith Corporation knew that their CEO once had a gulfriend in high school For unknown reasons, she wanted to break up with him No one knew what happened, but they both ended up in a car accident on the highway Jasper nearly

lost his life in that accident.

Fortunately, the Smith family managed to keep this matter under wraps, so not many people outside knew about it. However, for some unknown reason, this woman mysteriously disappeared later on.

“This lady used to date Mr. Smith quite publicly in the past. Not only did everyone in the company know about her existence, but even the Smith family… Even if they didn’t like her, they didn’t dare to do anything to her because she was under the CEO’s protection. After all these years, she has actually returned!”

The one-hour meeting had just concluded.

Fabian held a magazine in his hand as he walked out. “A hundred thousand copies have been sold, but Ms. Eileen probably doesn’t know about this yet. Should we ask the other for compensation?”

company

On the cover, a man and a woman were walking hand in hand on the beach. The man’s silhouette from the back was visible, while only the woman’s side profile could be seen. The backdrop of the blue sky and the vast sea made for a very evocative scene.

The woman looked at the man beside her with an affectionate and longing gaze. Anyone who saw it would mistakenly believe that she was deeply in love with the man by her side.

However, these two individuals were none other than Jasper and Eileen. They were photographed surreptitiously while taking a stroll in Seatown and ended up on the cover of a magazine.

That magazine company specialized in featuring couples on their covers. It was not very well-known, and its past issues had average sales. However, the moment the latest issue hit the stands, it unexpectedly started to fly off the shelves.

A hundred thousand copies of the magazine were all sold out.

By the time Fabian found out about it, the magazine company was in the process of printing

more.

However, just half an hour ago, it was halted by an order from Smith Corporation, as they had already infringed upon someone’s personal portrait rights.

The picture was taken without the individuals in question being aware, after all

Jasper glanced at the cover, a smile spreading across his face. “This is a great picture Lets pretend we are unaware of the situation”

Fabiati was taken aback Pretend we don’t know?

What does he mean?

Jasper gave Fabian a sidelong glance, his eyes shimmering. When Fabian had a sudden. realization, his face brightened. “I understand now,” he said. “I will immediately instruct the legal department to withdraw the lawyer’s letter.”

Pretending not to know implies that Mr. Smith approves of their actions. Is Mr. Smith deliberately ignoring the matter and allowing the magazine to continue selling just to reveal his relationship with Ms. Eileen? The magazine company is going to benefit greatly from this. Mr. Smith rarely makes public appearances. Even at banquets, he seldom shows up.

Soon, they arrived at the entrance of the CEO’s office. This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

When Jasper noticed that the door was slightly open, his gaze intensified as he came to a halt. “Do I have another appointment today?”

Upon hearing the noise from inside, Fabian replied, “No, you don’t.”

Fabian stepped forward and pushed the door open, only to find Nancy sitting in the CEO’s

chair.

Fabian’s expression suddenly changed. She actually had the audacity to come back!
