Defying Fate: The Unstoppable Eileen

Chapter 176

Egbert’s attitude was giving Eileen the jitters

She quickly explained, “Mr. Reed, I didn’t mean anything by it, I was just caught up in the thrill of victory. I didn’t mean to disrespect you, I really…”

“Sit down,” Egbert said again.

Eileen didn’t dare refuse him and gingerly took a seat.

She perched herself on the edge of the sofa.

Egbert looked down at her, “Are you satisfied with your performance?”

Eileen quickly shook her head, “I’m not, I did poorly, I still have a lot to learn from you.”

Egbert raised an eyebrow, “Learn from me? Learn what? Learn how to be stingy?”

Eileen was quick to reply, “You’re not stingy, you’re generous, and the most tolerant person I’ve ever met!”

“And do you learn how to hold grudges from me?”

“You don’t hold grudges, you’re always looking out for us, and you’re our role model!”

“Chatting during training, do you think that’s something to be proud of?”

“No, you’re right to admonish me. Next time, I’ll correct it and strive to be a committed and responsible young person!”

“Do you find making all these excuses tiring?”

Eileen looked at him, hurt, shaking her head, “No, I mean it…”

Egbert looked back and suddenly laughed.

He sat down next to her and casually said, “We’re even.”

Eileen gazed at him.

Egbert laughed lightly, “You caught me off guard, and you weren’t scared of me. Weren’t you brave? Weren’t you going to take me down?”

Eileen lowered her head, muttering, “You were the enemy then. My teacher told me to be ruthless against enemies.”

Egbert raised an eyebrow, “Teacher?”

Eileen realized her mistake and quickly corrected, “My primary school teacher taught me!”

Egbert didn’t say anything more, just looked at her.

Eileen asked, “Can I go now?”

Egbert leaned back on the sofa and said slowly, “You don’t want to stay with me?”
