Yes you can enter back to UK alone but maybe asked a lot/few questions about EU spouse.

Yes you can enter alon back to uk

Yes. Your EEA sponsor only has to be resident in the UK for you to have the right to live here. She does not have to be physically present in the country every minute of every day, and she doesn't have to be with you when crossing the border.

I re-enter the UK all the time on my EEA residence card, and I'm rarely with my EEA citizen wife. At most they might ask where she is. You should just tell the truth: she stayed behind in France for a few days/weeks and then she's coming back as well. There is nothing wrong with that at all.
