Eileen grabbed the tent curtain, turning to Egbert, “You’ve got stuff to do, so I’ll just go ask them myself.”

With that, she was about to leave.

Eileen stopped and looked back at him. “You…”

Just then, Egbert stepped forward, grabbing Blake’s shoulder to stop him from speaking.

Blake looked at Egbert.

Egbert turned his head and said to Eileen, “Go on, I’ll stay.”

Eileen didn’t understand what they were up to, she mumbled an “Okay” and left the tent.

Egbert glanced at Derek, then patted Blake on the shoulder, signaling him to sit down.
