Defying Fate: The Unstoppable Eileen

Chapter 18

Egbert was knocking on the door for over a minute, but there was no response from inside

Just as he was about to call Josiah to check if they had already left, the door suddenly swung open

Eileen emerged locking rather disheveled

Her appearance was a far cry from how she looked earlier when she was downstairs, back then, she had on a coat over a loose white long sleeved shirt and jeans

Now she had taken off her coat which was hanging off her arm. Two buttons on her while shirt were undone revealing her collatione

Egbert’s face instantly darkened, and his gaze shifted towards the interior of the room.

Egbert held the door open, looking at her coldly

Eileen swallowed hard, appearing somewhat flustered, “What are you doing?”

Seeing her reaction, Egbert’s expression became even more stem. His eyes locked on her unbuttoned shirt collar from his angle, he could even see a glimpse of her chest. He asked coldly. “Do you even know what work is?”

Eileen was puzzled, ‘What?”

“Dunng work hours, you should know how to differentiate between work and personal life is this how you’ve always been conducting yourself at work?”

His rebuke was so straightforward that Eileen bit her p in embarrassment it was the first time she had been scalded during a show

She pressed her lips together, warling to calm the situation. She didn’t care about apologizing anymom, muttered sulkuly. Fine, I was wrong, okay? Let’s just go”

“What about him? Egbert refused to let go of the door His megant fingers were still pressing against the door, clearly not intending to let her off the hook just yet.
