Defying Fate: The Unstoppable Eileen

Chapter 20

|| really like Phyllis Finally, someone’s standing up to Eileen. I’ve been itching to jump into the screen and give her a piece of my mind. What’s with her arrogance and nudeness]

Why didn’t they give Kenley a mask? Do you know how many fans Kenley has overseas? So nanow minded]

Phyllis was just trying to defend her friend. She didn’t mean to provoke Kenley. Okay, for the sake of you standing up for Kenley, we, Kenley’s fans, will let you off the hook for now ]

“Stop talking nonsense Phyllis Bblythe chided stemly.

She knew Phyllis had been holding grudges against Eileen. But this was the first time Phyllis publicly confronted Eileen. Not for herself, but for Kenley

Bblythe frowned, glancing over at Kenley, who was sitting on the couch with a helpless, bitter smile on his face. She wasn’t sure if it was just her imagination, but she felt that Kenleys attitude was a bit off today.

Josiah quickly intervened to defuse the situation

Eileen’s cold eyes scanned over Phyllis. After a while, she pulled out a mask and handed it over.

“You could’ve given it to me earlier Phyllis rushed over to take it

But Eileen swiftly withdrew her hand. Phyllis, who had run over for nothing, snapped, “Are you messing with me?”

Eileen turned to Kenley. “What did you break your legs or arms? Can’t you come and get it yourself?”

Kenley looked at Eileen with an innocent and aggrieved expression.

[Eileen is really sick)

Im so annoyed by Eileen now]

[Why does Kenley have to put up with this from Eileen? Can’t the production team kick her out!)

Phyllis sentiments echoed the comments exactly. She shouted, “I just like helping Kenley with things, why are you so nosy! Are you giving me the mask or not!”

Eileen gave Phyllis an annoyed glance. In the end, she threw the mask at her

Phyllis caught the mask and humed back to Kenley with an eager expression

“Thank you,” said Kenley gently. Phyllis face turned red instantly.

Before long, they all got on the bus Eileen initially sat alone in the last row of the bus, but Egbert strode on and sat next to her after he boarded.

As the bus started moving, the others chatted leisurely

Egbert suddenly started, “Do you know where Phyllis went last night?

Eileen was taken aback and looked at him.

“She was led to the back stairs by him, Egbert said. The “him” referring to Kenley

Eileen frowned Women in love have no brains

Egbert chuckled softly.

“What are you laughing at?” Eileen asked

“I just don’t think that’s love” Egbert replied.

Eileen thought of Kenley’s flippant behavior the day before She stared at the back of Phyllis’ head for a long time, then snorted and looked away. ‘Not my problem” Egbert glanced at her and said nothing.

Everyone enjoyed the day, except for Phyllis who kept asking Eileen for money.

However when they returned to their accommodation that night, Phyllis suddenly announced, “I want to be the team leader tomorrow.”

Eileen, who was calculating their remaining budget, looked up.

Bblythe also turned her head. “Phyllis, stop joking”

Im not joking. Why does she always have to be the leader? I can respect her, but why does she have to be the leader? We can’t even cat what we like, and we can only eat what she thinks is cheap. What’s the fun in traveling like this? Especially when Kenley is feeling unwell because of a head injury, she insists that we take the bus We get motion sickness from switching buses. How much money does that save? She made Kenley feel unwell! I don’t care, I want to be the leader tomorrow. If you won’t let me, refund me and Kenley our money. We’ll go our own way, we won’t go with you.”

Bblythes expression grew more senous. “Phyllis, this is not a joke. Even if you two go alone…”

“Bblythe, why are you always on her side! We’re supposed to be close, yet you always defend Eileen. Do you care about me!”

Bblythe stood up “It’s because I care about you that I’m reminding you…

“I don’t need your reminder I came to travel, not to be trained. I don’t need a coach telling me what I should and shouldn’t do. If you can’t accept me, let the production team replace me, and bring someone else!”

“Phyllis Bblythe was angry

Eileen stood up, blocking blythe, and looked at Phyllis. “You want to be the leader?”

“Yes!” Phyllis looked defiantly at Eileen, chin up

“Fine.” Eileen handed her the money she was holding

“Eileen, dont stoop to her level.” Bblythe tried to intervene

But Phyllis snatched the money, counted the amount, and declared, “Everyone can sleep in until ten tomorrow. We’ll start our activities in the atomoon. I won’t

everyone up so early like her. We’re here to enjoy ourselves, and I respect everyone’s sleep.”

Eileen chuckled, nodding lazily. “Suit yourself.”

Phyllis, holding the money, ran off to the guys’ mom to share the good news. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Once Phyllis left, Bblythe pulled Eileen aside, looking bitter. “She’s just a little girl. Don’t be mad”

The more Bblythe spent time with Eileen, the more she realized how strong Eileen’s organizing and coordinating abilities were. Among them, only Eileen could control the situation. Seven people travelled together, each with their own personalities and temperaments, but Eileen could manage everyone, ensuring the show

went smoothly

Being able to do that was a great merit in itself.

Bblythe had no clue what was going on with Phyllis, all she knew was not to piss off Eileen.

Tm not mad, if she wants to kick up a fuss, let her. I don’t give a toss” Eileen said, grabbing her towel and toothbrush, and heading straight into the bathroom to freshen up

She seemed completely indifferent to the whole thing. Bblythe stood outside the closed bathroom door, sighing deeply

– I kinda wanna give Eileen a piece of my mind. But then I remember what happened with Hubery on the first day]

– [Phyllis wouldn’t just burn money for no reason, would she? She saw what happened to Hubery]

– [I’m on Phyllis’ side. Kenley’s taken enough today, and he’s just a temporary guest, a visitor. But look at him, after a day out, he’s been run ragged. It’s enough to make me wanna cry]

I feel for Kenley too. He’s injured. You guys should be kinder to him. Isn’t that just basic decency?
