Chapter 219
Chapter 219 There Is A Difference
That night was destined to be a sleepless night..
The night wind rustled the heavy curtains. Eileen emerged from the bathroom, drying her hair with a
towel. She walked over to the bedside table, attempting to charge her broken. phone. The screen had a
crack in it. It had been fine during the day, but now the charging was intermittent.
Suddenly, a call notification popped up. The familiar phone number made her heart tighten.
She didn’t answer. Instead, she watched the phone automatically disconnect again and again.
She thought they would give up, but then messages kepting for several days.
One read: I know you don’t go to bed this early.
Another wrote: You’re misbehaving again, Eileen.
Another message read: Answer the phone! Otherwise, I don’t mind making a personal visit to the Smith
residence.
Eileen held her breath, her heartbeat pounding along with it.
She quickly received another video.
It was in the car….
He sent another message saying: You don’t want it to be seen by others either, right? Good girl.
When exactly did he take the picture?
She simply had no idea.
Eileen felt as if her entire body had plunged into an ice cer, a wave of coldness enveloping
her
Buzz’ Buzz’ Buzz!
The phone vibrated He had called again.
After waiting for half a minute, just as the call was about to end. Fileen finally answered the phone
With as calm a voue as possible he asked “What exactly are you trying for de
obr
Eileen heard the sound of the shower from his end. His breathing was also very heavy.
Little did she know, Eric was lying in the cold bathtub, using the bone-chilling water to quench the
unquenchable desire within him.
In the murky water, a solid object stood erect.
As he held it in his hand, it stirred up ripples on the water.
“I’ve sent you a piece of text. Read it out to me.”
After Eileen read it, her expression turned awkward. This was because the text Eric had sent was from
the twenty-seventh chapter of The Vine of Desire, specifically the part about the grapevine.
She recognized every single character, but when they were put together, Eileen could only feel her face
flushing red with embarrassment.
“Don’t go too far.”
She was not a fool, as she knew what the person on the phone was insinuating.
“Defying me? You should know there’s nothing I wouldn’t do. Don’t think you’re safe just because
you’re in the Smith residence! Nancy is back. How long do you think you can stay? Huh?”
A pang of pain seemed to prick Eileen’s heart, realizing that Eric knew everything.
The person on the phone fell silent for over ten seconds.
“Hurry up and read!”
Eileen’s heart skipped a beat. She bit her lip, speaking word by word. “In the brocade tent, an intense
atmosphere radiated from under the embroidered quilt. Behold the fragrant skin of the shining pair…”
Her voice was delicate, as if gently stroking the strings of a harp. The lingering melody wrapped around
the room and softly found its way into a man’s heart.
Apanied by the heavy panting of the man on the other end of the phone, Eileen wished she could
cover her ears to avoid his repulsive voice,
Half an hour passed, and just as thest sound fell, Eileen had finished reading
Feeling ashamed she hung up the phone
In thetter part of the night another call came through Edeen didn Canswer it not knowing
who it was.
She found it truly bizarre. She was certain she had already blocked Eric’s number. How could he still
manage to get through from the cklist?
Lost in thought, Eileen drifted off to sleep in her bed.
The rm clock rang at half past six.
Groggily, Eileen got up and descended the stairs, where the housekeeper had already prepared
breakfast.
“Ms. Eileen, didn’t Mr. Smithe downstairs with you?”

Eileen responded, “He’s probably still sleeping.”
“When I went to wake him up earlier, there was no one in his room.”
Eileen thought about how Jasper had already leftst night and probably hadn’t returned all night.
A hint of unease shed across Eileen’s face. “He must have gone out for somepany business.”
“I see.”
When Eileen stepped out of the house, she felt a sense of unease in her heart.
I wonder if it’s because the exam is tomorrow.
That’s why I’m feeling a bit nervous.
Petalburg High School
Students started to arrive for ss around eight o’clock.
“You say there’s nothing, but something big happened in Primas za yesterday. It seems like
Chandler was killed by someone. I saw it all. I was right there in Primas za, but I had no idea who
was responsible. Police cars and ambnces were everywhere. I overheard a room service staff
member saying that the ground was covered in blood. It was likely a brutal
scene.”
“Who on earth has Chandler upset to end up getting beaten so badly?”
A girl wearing the same school uniform burst into the group of girls who had just started chatting. She
was holding an entertainment magazine in her hand “Quick look! There’s breaking news.”
“What? The one who hit him was Jasper? Can you see who he was holding? It doesn’t seem to be
Eileen!”
On the magazine cover, Jasper was holding a person with long golden hair in his arms, who was also
wearing a ck coat. The paparazzi didn’t manage to capture the woman’s face clearly, only a vague
profile. Judging from her figure, she didn’t resemble Eileen at all.
Many women were holding virtually the same magazine in their hands.
It seems they all thought of something, “Oh my, could it be Jasper who hit someone?”
Chandler was also a spoiled rich kid. The wealthy moved in the same circles, and there was no one
who didn’t know about Chandler’s notorious escapades.
It was not too hard to guess. Most likely, this woman had caught Chandler’s eye, and Jasper went to
rescue her. That was how she was brought out of the hotel.
The magazine publisher was the same as before; the one who photographed Eileen and Jasper for the
same magazine.
This time, Eileen also found out.
Due to the magnitude of this incident, messages about Jasper were currently being pushed on mobile
phones.
Eileen gazed downwards, flipping through the photos taken by the paparazzi. It turned out that Jasper
had gone to rescue Nancy the previous night.
Eileen felt bitter, but she had already experienced such things countless times. Her heart had long
since grown numb.
Clutching her inactive phone tightly in her hand, she focused on the task at hand.
First, she turned off the phone. Then, she removed the battery.
Benjamin approached, holding a stack of thetest edition of exercise books. He tossed them to Eileen.
“Is your phone broken?”
“It’s fine. It’s still usable”
Since theirst conversation, Benjamin had been gradually increasing his interactions with
her
Eileen also understood why Jason would say that Benjamin was a psycho
He had won
awards of all sizes at school
He had also established his own tech studio abroad.
The studio wasn’trge, but it had already generated a substantial amount of money and even had its
own patented technology.
Eileen was not someone who could afford to not devote herself wholeheartedly to her
studies.
“Your exam is tomorrow. Aren’t you nervous?”
Eileen nced at his upper body, d in a ke sweatshirt. He rubbed the back of his neck. “It’s
alright. For me, it’s just an ordinary exam. If you’re feeling nervous, you can always do more
workbooks.”
The academic prodigy certainly speaks differently!
Eileen looked at the exercise books, which were not easily avable in bookstores. Benjamin had given
them all to her. Eileen expressed her gratitude with a simple “Thank you.”
Benjamin and Jason went to the yground to y ball.
Eileen set aside all distractions and focused on the task at hand.
When Eileen saw Jasper and Nancy together, a thought crossed her mind. If they truly reconciled, she
might just wish them well.
