Chapter 83 Perhaps Eric Is His Biological Son

Eileen was constantly bothered by him until just before class started, and only then did he leave. If shehad known it would be like this, she wouldn’t have returned to school. No sooner had Eileen settled intoher seat than the vice homeroom teacher called her to the office.

Inside the office, the vice homeroom teacher was rummaging through the drawer. “Please have a seat!”

Eileen pulled a stool from the side and sat down.

Soon, the teacher pulled out an aspiration form.

“You haven’t been to school for such a long time, and you’re not answering your phone, Eileen. Hassomething happened at home?”

The vice homeroom teacher was the Clusian teacher of Class Six. After Elsie resigned, Xenia becamethe homeroom teacher in charge of Class Six. Most of the class affairs were also managed by her inthe past.

Eileen had a fairly good impression of her. She wasn’t opportunistic and treated everyone equally. Atleast she wasn’t like Elsie, who approached her with insincere flattery and hidden

motives.

“Everything’s fine, Ms. Carter. Did you need me for something?”

Xenia handed Eileen a form. “All your classmates have already filled out their aspiration. forms. Lasttime I visited your house, there was no one there. Now that I’ve finally caught you at school, I thoughtI’d have you fill out your form. You’re the only one left in our class who hasn’t done so. The higher-upsare also urging me to hurry up.”

“Your dad didn’t attend the parent-teacher conference for this mid-term mock exam either.”

Eileen hung her head low, clutching at the hem of her clothes, at a loss for words.

Will never cared about her.

Sometimes, she wondered if she really was his biological daughter.

His concern for Eric far exceeded hers, to the point where she even thought that Eric was his biologicalchild instead of her.

“I understand where you’re coming from. Just know that your future is in your hands. It would be ashame if you go along with this setup. You’re beautiful, and I appreciate that, but relying solely on yourlooks for attention won’t get you far. I prefer students who are intelligent and knowledgeable. I’ve saidmy piece, but don’t let it bother you. You’re my

student, and it’s my job to guide you. I know about your grades, and you’ve genuinely improved thistime. I believe these are your real results. I know what others might say, but don’t let it get to you.”

Nowadays, it seems like the affluent kids, regardless of their academic prowess, choose to studyabroad. Once they’re back, they often rely on family enterprises, sustaining their opulent lifestyles.

Only a handful venture into creating their own paths.

“Ms. Field mentioned you’re thinking about heading to Lumiose for education. Yet, I’d prefer if youconsidered Hulbury University. And, if you can, aim for that top scholar position at Hulbury.”

In the past, these were things she didn’t even dare to dream of.

Eileen lifted her head to look at her. “Do you also wish for this?”

Xenia was puzzled. “Hulbury University is an aspiration for many students. You’ve got the capability, sowhy not? Eileen, education is the simplest way to alter one’s fate; no one else can determine it for you.I hope you consider it thoughtfully. Will you persist in your diligent studies at school or carry on withyour external courses? I wouldn’t want to lose such a high- achieving student. If you keep putting effortinto your abilities, a bright future awaits you,

sure.”

Eileen fell into deep thought.

Almost all of Eileen’s affairs were decided by Will. What she was to do next, or which university shewas to attend, she rarely had a chance to make her own decisions.

Regardless of this life or the previous one, it seemed that Eileen could always see the end of herjourney.

After obtaining a university degree and graduating, a marriage intertwined with business awaits her.After marriage, without a career of her own, she would become a full-time housewife.

The value she held in Will’s eyes was just that.

She contemplated that only by leaving the Swan family, by not relying on all the material conditions thatWill provided for her in life, would she be able to break free from the fate that had been arranged forher.

“Once you’re in Hulbury University, you’ll have the opportunity every year to qualify as an exchangestudent abroad. When you’re good enough, you won’t have to rely on your family.”

“Abroad?”

Eileen pondered that perhaps going abroad was the only way to sever her ties with the Swan family.

In this way, Eric would not harm her while seeking revenge on Will.

At this moment, it seemed as if Eileen had figured something out.

She had never left Hulbury city before, always kept like a caged canary, trapped in a marriage. that wasalready an empty shell. Her thinking was narrow, and she lacked deep insigh

This could be her only chance.

Eileen has filled out her preferences, with Hulbury University as her top choice.

She had made up her mind. Before she graduates from university, she would go abroad as anexchange student behind Will’s back and return after three to five years.

Even if Will cut off her financial support, by that time she would have already been able to supportherself. Perhaps by the time she returned, Will would have long forgotten about this daughter of his.

Will might even be dead by then and the Swan family would have fallen into Eric’s hands.

Regardless of the outcome, she’d either replace herself in Fandar or delighting in the northern lights alongthe Ordano River.

In her previous life, Xenia had never uttered such words to her, but it made sense that history didn’thave to repeat itself.

Perhaps her destiny had already taken a turn.

Just like Vera, without her intervention, Eileen would continue to thrive. Ultimately, she’d be with Eric,get married, and start a family, easing the regrets and pains of Eric’s past life.

She had to endure for three years and then persist for another three.

In her past life, Eileen had endured decades of pain, so these three years were but a fleeting momentfor her.

Eileen returned to the classroom. The forty-five-minute lesson was almost over.

The last row, initially quite empty, now appeared very crowded with Elm and his group’s arrival.

Just as she settled into her seat, Eileen noticed that her desk had been tampered with. The draft paperfrom the previous class was scattered all over the desk, turned upside down in a complete mess.

In her absence, it was unclear what had transpired.

But none of that matters anymore.

Soon, she would be switching to another class.

This was the condition she presented to her homeroom teacher. She could select Hulbury University asher top choice, or even achieve the highest score in this year’s college entrance. examination inHulbury City. Her only request was to switch classes,

Life has been challenging since Eric began oppressing her.

If Elm continues to harass her at school, she will undoubtedly lose her sanity,

She noticed that Elm was seated behind Vera. Between her and Elm, there was Albert and an aisle.

Before Eileen had a chance to open her textbook, the bell signaling the end of class rang.

The math teacher didn’t have a habit of going over time, so as soon as class ended, Walsh hurriedover to Eileen, curiously asking, “Eileen, why were you absent for so long? What did the homeroomteacher say to you?”

Eileen opened her bag and took an ibuprofen. “It’s nothing, just discussing matters about ouraspirations.”

“Is this enough to talk about for an entire class? There must be something else.”

Walsh’s question attracted quite a few bystanders, all of them appearing to be quite interested in thegossip.
