The door had been replaced with a new anti-theft one. Eric had been staying at Undella Mansion for

several days, not leaving the house at all. Instead of going back to work, he chose to spend time there

with

Eileen.

Eileen rarely came downstairs, and if she did and saw him, she would quickly turn around and leave.

Mary returned and prepared lunch.

It was the weekend, and school was on holiday break.

Vera also returned to Undella Mansion.

As they sat at the dining table, Mary brought out two more plates and cutlery.

Vera said. Eric, you’ve been staying here these days. Why didn’t you tell me? Can I stay here too?”

Eric picked up two sets of plates and cutlery, his voice deepening. Ask her to come down for dinner.”

Mary said with a troubled expression. “Ms. Eileen said she doesn’t want to dine with strangers…”

Eric’s

‘s gaze flashed sharply, startling Mary. She shrank back a liule. “I’m just conveying Ms. Eileen’s wishes.

Vera glanced at Enc. Enc, how long does Eileen plan to keep this up? The homeroom teacher asked

me to persuade Eileen to return to school. I share the same sentiment. It’s just one exam, and she still

has a chance if she returns to school. The progress in our class is fast. If she doesn’t return to school,

she won’t be able to

to keep up. Eric, you should also persuade Eileen. She really can’t continue like this.

“Mind your own business. I’ll talk to Eileen. After dinner, go home early

Vera didn’t expect Eric to rush her to leave. However, she didn’t want to go. In fact, she had her own

selfish reasons, mainly because she didn’t want Eric to be alone with Eileen. Now that she was his

girlfriend, even if Eileen no longer had feelings for Enc, she would still feel uncomfortable.

“Eric, I want to be with you. Don’t worry. I won’t cause you any trouble. I know there’s not much I can

do, but I can stay here with you. help with cooking and cleaning

“Listen, I’ll be back in a few days. Eileen is sick. She’s alone at home, so I can’t leave her. Finish your

meal and go home early to do your homework Eric’s voice was soft, but it was clear from his tone that

he was displeased, and his words were not up for debate.

Mary was tidying up the kitchen, almost believing what was said.

Vera narrowed her eyes, her expression unreadable, disappointment visible on her face. She knew that

not matter what Erie said, she had to listen, but she didn’t want to… She just wanted to stay by his

side. Vera’s reliance on Eric had grown significantly.

“But Eileen has never considered us as family, right?”

Vera grumbled unhappily.

Eric’s face darkened instantly. “Is that what you think? Have you forgotten whose connections get you

Petallurg High School: Vera, I don’t want to hear such words from you again.”

“Ms. Eileen, you’re here. Come and cat quickly!”

Eileen was dressed in a black knitted long skirt, her slightly curled hair cascading down. On her wrist,

she casually draped a woolen coat. She appeared to be wearing light makeup, her lips brushed with a

subtle shade of lipstick. “No need,” she said. “I’m heading out for a bit.”

“Where are you going?”

Eileen had clearly just woken up, a hint of fatigue still lingering in her eyes. She handed her coat to

Mary without even glancing their way.

Walking into the kitchen, she poured a cup of warm water. “Some personal matters,” she replied. “By

the way, if I don’t come back today, handle things as you see fit. Whether you stay in the mansion to

keep an eye on things or go back for a few days of rest

“Oh, when are you coming back? You can’t possibly never return, can you? What about my salary?”

Eileen took a sip of water and placed it on the table. I will transfer this month’s company earnings to

your card. Even if I don’t return. your salary won’t be affected

When I have some free time, I’ll come over and clean up so it’s convenient for you when you return.”

“All right, as you wish.”

Eileen looked our the window and saw a familiar Maybach driving up and stopping outside the

courtyard. “They re here. I should leave now,” she said.

“Ms. Eileen, if there’s anything you need, just give me a call.”

Oh my, it’s kind of scary to think she’ll be living here alone from now on.

Eric was eating the food in front of him. As she passed by, he put down his fork. I’ll wait for you to come

back tonight.”

Eileen slowly halted her steps. “No need. If you like living here. I’ll give it to you.

From now on, whoever he brings home to stay has nothing to do with me.

Eric should know where she was going, but he couldn’t stop her because he was no match for the

Smith family. The current Eric did not have the strength to contend with the Smith family.

Richard personally escorted her home, a level of honor she hadn’t anticipated. Given Richard’s status

in the Smith family, even outsiders showed him some respect. Although Eileen had been idle at home

for nearly a month, it wasn’t as if she had done nothing. The painting she had competed with had won

a prize. which was a good start for her.

She charged her phone, which had been dead for a long time, and turned it on. She saw countless

missed

calls

The first call she received when she turned on her phone was from the Smith residence –

This included…

Although the string of phone numbers was unfamiliar, she saw a series of photos from foreign lands in

the email account associated with this number. There were pictures of a Remdik street square, a flock

of pigeons pecking at bread crumbs, and another one of a pigeon perched on his leg, his handsome,

slender hand holding a piece of bread, feeding it.

Even though this was one of the few pictures where the face was not shown, she knew this was Elm.

Three days after he left, these photos never stopped coming.

Eileen didn’t exchange any words with him. She simply said Thank you” from behind the screen, where

he couldn’t hear her.

It was precisely because of this that he saw a glimmer of hope.

Upon arriving at the Smith residence, Eileen stepped out of the car. The housekeepers’ faces lit up with

joyful smiles

es upon seeing her. They cagerly ushered her into the villa where Jasper was waiting. “Ms. Eileen,”

they said. “Old Mrs. Smith has been waiting for you for quite some time.”

“Thank you.

Eileen entered the foyer, where rows of housekeepers stood as if they were specifically waiting for her.

Upon entering the living room, one could immediately see an elderly woman sitting on the couch.

holding a cane in her hand and watching the opera channel.

Upon seeing that hunched figure. Eileen immediately felt a sense of familiarity.

Richard stepped forward. “Old Mrs. Smith, Ms. Eileen has arrived.”

Layla was helped to her feet by the housekeepers beside her. She turned to them and said. “You all

may leave now I’d like to have a chat with her.

Everyone left, leaving only Eileen and Layla in the room.

Eileen had anticipated this.

Layla said, “Come and sit here

“Alright.” Eileen nodded and stepped forward.

“Take a seat here.”

Eileen took a seat next to Layla. “I never expected it to be you.”
