Chapter 129 What’s Wrong With You

Richard halted Eileen, who wondered why Jasper was at the school at this hour.

Unable refuse, she reluctantly took the seat behind the passenger seat.

The car’s air conditioning was pleasantly warm.

Sitting in the car, Jasper appeared pale and weak. He coughed a few times, covering his mouth with aclenched fist. His breathing sounded irregular, as if he was in discomfort.

Silence filled the car. After a while, Eileen broke the eerie silence. “Why are you here today? If you’renot feeling well, why didn’t you go to the hospital?” she asked with concern.

“It’s just a common cold, nothing serious,” Jasper replied.

Eileen nodded in response.

Then, Jasper asked softly, “Yesterday, I heard from Yvette that you weren’t here when she came to pickyou up. Where… where did you go?”

“Pick me up?” Eileen was somewhat puzzled.

Isn’t he here to pick up Yvette?

Jasper nodded. “Yvette was worried because school ended late, so she called him. Didn’t you run intohim?”

Jasper gazed at her, as if trying to discern something from her very being.

So that’s what Yvette said!

Eileen never called Eric to come and pick her up.

He knew she had already left the condominium.

Eileen felt it was better to avoid unnecessary trouble. To her, this wasn’t a big deal at all.

Yvette was probably only using her as a shield, an excuse to avoid confronting Jasper.

Eileen responded calmly, “My phone ran out of battery, so I didn’t receive any calls. Yesterday, Iaccompanied a sick friend to the clinic after school. I must have missed it!”

Did he come here to ask me these questions? But it shouldn’t be the case. It’s such a trivial matter, notenough for him to come and question me. Perhaps Yvette knew something, or maybe she sawsomething Did she see me leaving the school with Elm and then tell Jasper about it? Did Jasper comelooking for me

because of that

Is your friend feeling better now?”

Much better replied Eileen with a faint smile. Although she wore a smile, she felt uncorortable as itseemed like Jasper was interrogating her.

The way he spoke made Eileen feel like she had done something unforgivable.

The pressure was overwhelming, making it difficult for her to catch her breath.

Thank you for your concern. Oh, by the way, my class is about to start. I need to go. You shouldprobably head back. Don’t forget to take your medicine,” she said.

Jasper nodded, his eyes filled with tenderness. “Okay.”

He continued to gaze at Eileen’s retreating figure.

You’re saying thank you? It’s only been a few days. Have we become so distant? Eileen… Why are youhiding things from me? Are you so desperate to hide your affairs with Elm from me? There are somewords that I want to hear straight from you, or is it that… you have fallen for him?

As Eileen got out of the car, the smile on her face vanished in an instant.

Upon entering the school, Eileen couldn’t stop the constant throbbing in her head.

Her heart thumped, making her feel restless.

After Eileen entered the classroom, she caught Yvette’s gaze. It was only a glance before she quicklystarted chatting with the person beside her.

Perhaps she was overthinking that day, as nothing happened.

She was on her own as usual, attending classes by herself. Her efficiency in completing homework hadsignificantly improved compared to usual.

Let’s not bother Elm today!

Eileen decided to let Elm rest for the day since he was sick.

The results of the test that Jacob arranged last time were out. As expected, Eileen came secondamong the six people.

The person in first place was a slender boy with thick glasses, often seen holding a workbook.

He sat beside her and was usually quiet.

However, Yvette’s restit was quite impressive. Although she rarely did her homework and

ramonally skipped classes, she managed to perform well.

I was as if she made no effort yet still did well in the test.

Perhaps this was a stroke of luck.

She didn’t attend the Olympiad Math team’s meeting again today. Jacob began discussing problems onthe blackboard as if he had grown accustomed to her absence.

A class meeting was held during the final period.

Jennifer announced some news. There would be a parent-teacher conference this Saturday, and allparents were required to attend. In addition, a winter camp would be held during the winter break.Those who wished to participate would need to sign up.

Not only their class, but the entire Petalburg High School would organize these activities.

Eileen stuffed the documents into her drawer.

Attending the parent-teacher conference was out of the question, as Will had never attended one. Inthe past, she insisted Eric come as her parent.

However, this time, there might not be anyone coming.

As for the winter camp, perhaps she would consider it. The end of the camp coincided perfectly withthe day before New Year.

She felt it wouldn’t matter whether she was at home during New Year.

After the last class, without the privilege of ending class early like other classes, Eileen went to thecafeteria to have dinner.

Walking on the path, she wore a long Blake wool jacket, her cute face slightly red from the cold, hiddenunder her hat.

She was walking along just fine when suddenly, a hand lifted her hat. Eileen turned her head to see noone. When she returned to her senses, someone was standing beside her.

Upon seeing him, Eileen wasn’t overly surprised.

“Where are you going?”

To eat, Eileen replied as she lowered her head. “School’s over. Aren’t you going home yet?”

All of a sudden, Eileen didn’t feel like going anymore

Are you going to this winter camp?

Is he asking me that? Just because of that?

Eileen muttered, “I’m not sure.”

“You’re not sure? Do you want to go, or… do you not want to go? Or is it because you know I’ go, that’swhy you won’t?”

Is he doing a tongue twister?

Eileen, who was walking steadily, slowed her pace.

“Elm…”

“Here I am!”

Eileen pursed her lips, lifted her head, and looked at him, her eyes revealing no discernible

emotion.

“Apart from tutoring you, please maintain your distance from me, just like before.”

Elm chuckled. “What’s the matter with you?”

“I’m doing this for your own benefit.”

Furthermore, she was not accustomed to this.

“How is that beneficial for me? Ms. Eileen, blink if you’re being threatened!” Elm raised an eyebrow ashe placed her cap back on her head. Then, he nonchalantly put his hands in his pockets and walkedaway.

She was being sincere.

On that day, she felt restless.

Her hunger overwhelmed her racing thoughts. She ordered a serving of non-spicy casserole and abowl of soup.

From behind her, Elm said, “I’ll have the same, please.”

“Of course, young man.”

Elm had his hands mcked in his pockets. Also, his backpack wasn’t with him. Could he be to thecafeteria too?

All of a sudden, Eileen didn’t feel like going anymore.
