Chapter 298 No Fun If You Die So Quickly
The curriculum at Pillere Art Academy was far from easy. Eileen led a monotonous life every day, filled
with eating, sleeping, and attending sses.
Seizing the rare opportunity for exchange and learning, Eileen dedicated most of her time to her
studies.
Every afternoon after school, Eileen would call Jasper to chat about everyday matters.
Gideon took his students to participate in an international paintingpetition. Apart from meal times,
they rarely saw each other.
As soon as Eileen returned to the hotel, she retreated to her room, asionally keeping up with the
news from back home.
As she was about to put down her phone, a push notification caught her eye. It was news about
Caerulus Corporation.
She clicked on the news and immediately noticed the prominent headline: Caerulus Corporation
Merges with Smith Corporation Subsidiary.
The feast hosted by the acting CEO of Caerulus Corporation ended with his dismissal due to improper
management. Currently, Clifford Quayle, the director of the nning department of Smith Corporation,
has taken over Caerulus Corporation.
ording to an internal interview from Smith Corporation, the primary reason for the merger with
Caerulus Corporation was the former CEO, Eric, failing toplete the project development on time.
The consequences could cost Caerulus Corporation hundreds of millions inpensation, and there’s
also a risk that the legal representative might end up in jail.
In order to ensure the project started on time, Caerulus Corporation had no choice but to merge with
Smith Corporation…
Hulbury News reports and continues to monitor this issue.
After considering the text, Eileen came to one conclusion-Eric had been sidelined. If he resigned, it
would mean that he would no longer have any influence over Caerulus. Corporation. Caerulus
Corporation would still be a Swan family business.
Suddenly, Eileen felt clear-headed. Eric was the sessor her father had nurtured and the one he
valued the most.
This incident must have been a huge blow to her father.
To avoid any contact, Eileen turned off her phone immediately after reading the news.
With Eric’s capabilities, even without Caerulus Corporation, he would find other ways. However, this
was also good, as it could dy the time Eric used to wreak havoc on the Swan family.
At this moment, the dealer was indeed getting in touch with Eileen, but the person reaching out to her
was not Eric but Elsie.
Eileen spent a restless night, her heart filled with unease. Today, Delh was preparing for a
competition. Recently, she rarely came home, leaving Eileen alone most of the time.
That day was the weekend, so there was no need to go to school.
At eight in the morning, there was a knock on Eileen’s door. She had just finished freshening up and
went to answer it. “Grayson?”
Grayson’s expression was serious as he held a ne ticket in his hand. “Eileen, why didn’t you answer
your phone? It seems like something has happened at your home.”
Upon hearing the news, Eileen was’ momentarily taken aback. “What… What did you say?”
Grayson replied, “Yesterday, a person named Elsie called Professor Combs’ mobile phone, saying that
your father suddenly fell ill and was taken to the hospital. Upon hearing this news, Professor Combs
immediately arranged a flight for you at noon. There’s still time, so you should quickly pack up. I’ll drive
you to the airport.”
Eileen didn’t pack anything. In a hurry, she hopped into Grayson’s car, and they left.
She turned off her phonest night, which was why she didn’t receive Elsie’s call.
She never expected thatst night’s unease was a harbinger of things toe.
The weather today was far from good, with rain falling and the sky gloomy, mirroring her inner state. It
was as if her heart was shrouded by ayer of dark clouds that just wouldn’t disperse.
On the road, Grayson also tried tofort her. “Don’t worry, Eileen. Nothing bad will happen. Professor
Combs has already arranged your leave.”
Eileen hummed in response.
Why would Father fall ill at this time?
ording to the timeline, it should have been after my university graduation. Could it be that Eric
elerated his actions, which is why it happened earlier?
In his previous life, Will’s death came without any warning. He passed away suddenly one night.
It was the day she was preparing to marry Eric.
The traffic was rather heavy on the road. An hour and a halfter, Grayson dropped her off at the
airport and then left.

Eileen didn’t wait long at the airport before she boarded the ne ahead of schedule.
The flight to Hulbury would take over eight hours.
She should be able to reach the hospital by around nine o’clock in the evening at the earliest.
At the same time, Eric also received news of Eileen’s return to the country.
Serene Hospital.
Willy unconscious on the hospital bed, a breathing mask covering his face. The heart rate) monitor
showed normal readings, yet there was no sign of him waking up.
In the exclusive VIP ward, Zachary was the one receiving treatment this time.
In an unspoken understanding between the two, Zachary calmly discussed Will’s current situation.
As Zachary was writing his report, he scoffed without lifting his head. “You really went all out just to get
her back. You’ll stop at nothing to achieve your goal. I really underestimated you before.”
Eric asked, “How long until he wakes up?”
Zachary put down his pen with a smile, crossed his legs, and said, “That’s up to you. What do you want
him to be? After all, I owe you a favor.”
Eric turned around, his inscrutable gaze carrying a hint of scrutiny. A smirk tugged at the corner of his
mouth. “So, you’re willing to do anything for my sake, and my ns against the Swan family just
happen to align with your interests? Are you also thinking of using my methods to deal with the Swan
family? But as far as I know, the Swans had no prior involvement with you.”
Both of them were testing each other; both were as cunning as foxes. It was as if they were ying
some twisted game.
The two men grabbed into each other’s weaknesses. In another sense, Zachary was indeed on the
same line as Eric, being in the same boat.
A hint of curiosity flickered in Zachary’s eyes. “Tsk, don’t give me that look. I’m not Eileen.” He
approached Eric, his gaze fixed on the view beyond the floor-to-ceiling window. “I don’t owe you any
favors. Once I’ve repaid you, we’re even. Next time you need my help, it won’t be as simple.”
“Whether we hold a grudge or not, there’s one thing you must remember-as long as you destroy the
Swan family, I will always support you. Otherwise… I wouldn’t have dedicated so many years to
studying medicine. Regardless of the reason, even if you investigate, you won’t find anything. It has
been many years, and everything has already been destroyed and erased by him.”
He had promised her that he wouldn’t take any action against the Swan family.
However, he never promised not to seek assistance from others.
This was simply the consequence that Will himself had brought upon.
“He should regain consciousness in approximately two days. The medication he received earlier is not
lethal, but upon waking up, he may exhibit signs of having suffered a stroke. If you want him to
maintain his current condition, administer the medication once every three days. Overdosing him would
result in a quick death due to poisoning, and that wouldn’t be enjoyable at all.”
That would be letting him off too easily.
Around nine o’clock, Eileen disembarked from the airne.
In her hasty departure, she forgot to inform Jasper.
He still remained unaware of her return to her homnd.
I think I’ll n a surprise for him.
Eileen stepped out of the airport terminal. Amidst the hustle and bustle of the pick-up area, her eyes
immediately caught sight of Eric, who was staring right at her.
Eileen couldn’t help but feel like she was being observed by a predator. She knew that returning to her
home country was a trap, but she had no choice. After all, Will was her father, and he was ill… She had
toe back eventually.
