    Chapter 64 Involving Eileen


    “If you want to join in, I’ll let you have a go at her first…” Zachary smirked cynically, adding, “If you don’t


    mind, we can do it together. After all, we’ve been friends for so many years. It’s okay to share a


    woman. All these years, I’ve never seen you touch a woman. It really makes. me wonder if you’re


    incapable down there!”


    In response, Eric red at Zachary and warned, “If you say one more word, I’ll make you


    mute.”


    Zachary’s slender, phoenix-like eyes were slightly red, and his lips, as if stained with blood, curled up in


    a very enticing manner. He burst intoughter, his shoulders shaking. “Are you angry? How interesting.


    I’ve never seen you like this in all these years, Eric.”


    Thinking of Eileen, Eric suddenly felt like things were slowly slipping away, eluding his grasp no matter


    how hard he tried to hold on.


    Somewhere deep within his heart, it felt as if there was an empty hole, and he didn’t know how to fill it.


    For him, it felt like something was missing.


    “After all, it has been ten years. Is there really not a shred of emotion? How about we make a bet? Let’s


    bet on whether you will fall in love with Eileen. The stake is ten percent of the shares in Monarch


    Entertainment Club. If you win, I will work under you in the future, and you can order me around as you


    please,” Zachary suggested.


    Eric picked up the suit jacket from the couch and put it on. While fiddling with the cor button with his


    well-defined fingers, he asked, “Don’t you have anything better to do?”


    “What’s the matter? Are you scared?” Zachary asked.


    Dressed neatly, Eric cast his deep and piercing gaze upon him. “Who do you think has more worth


    living, you or Eileen? If you want to mess with her, I won’t stop you. However, don’t blow our cover. If


    Will finds out, who do you think will end up worse off, you or me?”


    After saying those words, Eric left. Every step he took was a risky move.


    Suddenly, he stopped at the door, ncing at Zachary sideways. “Drop those absurd. thoughts.


    Otherwise, I won’t mind taking you to the seaside to clear your head.”


    Eric was there to apany Will to meet a few clients.


    Will only decided to bring Eileen back from Peach Fishing Vige after they secured a partnership with


    Smith Corporation.

    Therefore, all her movements and actions were known.


    However, every time, Eileen would still surprise him.


    After finishing her song, Elsie ascended the stairs. She saw Eric, who had been ignoring her, brush


    past her and leave. With her eyes beautifully made up. Elsie nced at his retreating figure. It’s been


    three months since I saw him! Yet, he ignored me. What a heartless jerk.


    Elsie quickly entered a private room, taking in the decadent scene within. A handful of men were


    intimately embracing and kissing their femalepanions. A nauseating smell wafted over, causing a


    wave of nausea to rise in her stomach.


    Upon hearing the sound, many men’s gazes were fixed directly on the mature yet charming and


    enchanting woman.


    With a suppressed smile, Elsie walked in and sat next to Will. Almost immediately, Will wrapped his


    arm around her waist. His hand ventured toward the thigh revealed by the slit in her gown.


    Elsie shyly pretended to pull away, her face flushed with embarrassment. “What are you doing? So


    many people are watching!”


    At this moment, someone joked, “Will, you’ve got a good eye! I heard she used to be a teacher. How


    did you get your hands on her?”


    Even though Will was wealthy, he couldn’t shake off his uncouth, ruffian-like demeanor. In front of the


    group of his unsavory friends, his true nature was revealed instantly. “It doesn’t matter how good-


    looking they are. If they don’t say yes, just pin them down on the bed and nail them. They’ll behave


    then.”


    A joke was made, but Elsie’s face didn’t reveal any emotion. With a hooked corner of her mouth, she


    suppressed the displeasure in her eyes.

    Elsie leaned in and whispered something into Will’s ear.


    “Eric?”


    Elsie nodded. “Yes.”


    Will gently caressed the delicate, smooth leg, lost in thought. “Let him be! He’s in charge of most things


    at thepany. It’s not a big deal if he takes some time off to rx now and then. Why have you


    suddenly taken an interest in him? What’s brewing in that little head of yours?”


    Will was naturally suspicious. Elsie said with a yful pout, “I’m just telling you about his presence at


    Monarch Entertainment Club so that you won’t me me for hiding it from when he mentions it in the


    future! You’re always so suspicious.”

    Will’s brows rxed, and he hugged her, nting a kiss on her neck. “All right, don’t be mad… How


    about we go shopping tomorrow? You can buy whatever you want.”


    “Hey, what are you two whispering about over there? Is there something we’re not supposed


    to hear?”


    “What else is there to talk about? It’s all about those things in bed. You’re not getting any younger. Be


    careful not to hurt your back in bed.”


    “Hey girl, when you have some free time, buy some supplements to help this old guy out. If he can’t


    keep up,e find us. We guarantee to make you feel like you’re in heaven, unable to leave the bed


    the next day.”


    Usually, there would be a grain of truth in every joke, and Will knew his friends well enough. to know


    what they meant.


    Meanwhile, the wound on Eileen’s abdomen had already scabbed over, though it would itch from time


    to time.


    The inability to scratch was what made Eileen most ufortable.


    The doctor said there would be a scar, but she didn’t mind.


    After she was able to get out of bed, she let Matilda go home.


    At that moment, Eileen didn’t really need anyone to take care of her.


    Aside from Eric’s visit, no one had visited her since.


    To them, her existence was insignificant.


    However, Sharon would visit her every night. Knowing that Eileen wasn’t ustomed to the food


    outside, Sharon would prepare meals at home and bring them over.


    Although Eileen was supposedly recovering in the hospital, she didn’t gain weight. Instead, she even


    lost a few kilograms.


    Upon hearing a knock on the door of the ward, Eileen, who was engrossed in reading a book. on the


    balcony, shifted her attention from the pages to the entrance. Without standing up, she uttered, “Please


    come in.”


    The door swung open, revealing a bodyguard dressed in a sleek ck suit. In his hand, he held a


    delicate pink lunchbox. “Ms. Eileen, your meal is ready.”


    Eileen offered a gentle smile as she rose from her chair. “Just leave it there for now. I’ll eatter.”

    “Mr. Smith anticipated your response, so he instructed me to ensure that meal before leaving.”


    It was an order from Jasper.

    “I’m not particrly hungry. Can I set it aside for now?” Eileen inquired. I no longer have control over


    my own life, and now, I don’t even want the right to decide whether or not to eat to be taken away from


    me.


    Deep down. Eileen remained a rebel. She was unwilling toply with others’ instructions.


    The bodyguard added, “Inside, there are roasted chestnuts personally prepared by Mr. Smith, as well


    as sweet and sour pork… If they are left untouched for too long, their taste will be affected.


    Did he really prepare the food himself? Eileen had never consumed a meal cooked by anyone other


    than Sharon.


    Even Eric had never cooked.
