Defying Fate: The Unstoppable Eileen

Chapter 105

When Eileen got the call from the production crew of Eyes on the Rendezvous, it was a week later. At the time, she was pestering Ophelia to treat her to some fresh juice. The call from the crew went straight to the office. After Ophelia hung up, her look towards Eileen, which was originally annoyed, immediately changed as if she had seen gold. After hanging up the phone, Ophelia slammed her hand on the table and yelled out. “Go buy twenty cups of fresh grape juice for everyone in the office!”

Seeing Ophelia’s sudden lottery-winning-like behaviour, Eileen quickly raised two fingers, anxiously shouting, “I want two cups!”

Ophelia, in an unusually good mood, kindly replied, “I’ll get you two cups!”

Eileen quickly raised another finger, “Three cups!”

When Ophelia glared at her, Eileen awkwardly withdrew the last finger, whispering, “Okay then, just two.”

Half a month later, Eileen joined the crew. After signing the contract, the crew sent all the scripts over. Eileen spent half a month at home memorising her lines, and only rushed to the filming location on the eve of the shoot. Eyes on the Rendezvous was being shot in a small town. When Eileen arrived, most of the other actors were already there. The accommodation arranged by the crew was a small inn in the town; although a bit simple, it was still clean.

As Janice was packing for Eileen, she suddenly said, “Eileen, I just saw Teresa.” Teresa, the lead actress of the drama – Hertha, was the so-called “Best Actress” Teresa. She was older than Egbert. She was thirty this year, and Egbert was twenty-five. Eileen was the youngest at only nineteen.

“What happened?” Eileen asked casually.

Janice whispered, “She was yelling at her assistant. She said the room is not good and wanted to change rooms.”

Eileen was puzzled, “Hasn’t she been here for a few days?”

“Yeah, she has been here for a few days and hasn’t complained before, but now she suddenly says there’s a problem with the room and insists on moving to the room next to Egbert’s.”

Eileen raised her eyebrows, “Who’s in the room next to Egbert?”

Janice said, “It’s ours.”

“That’s Teresa’s assistant.” Eileen looked at the few people in front of her. Teresa’s assistant, who was leading the group, seemed a bit cocky. He first scanned the room, then reluctantly nodded in approval, telling the staff, “This room will do. You see, Teresa only sleeps in rooms with south-facing windows. She only stayed in the previous room for two days and immediately felt uncomfortable. I guess this room is barely suitable.” The staff felt awkward and bent down to negotiate with Eileen, “Eileen, is it okay for you to switch rooms with Teresa? Teresa is
