Defying Fate: The Unstoppable Eileen novel Chapter 124

"You..." Hubery was so angry he couldn't speak. "Stop making excuses! If you didn't want to see me, why are you on this show?"

Eileen couldn't help but laugh. "Did you get something twisted? Do you think you're some big shot? That I have to go around you every time I step out? You think your presence matters that much?"

"You... you... you..." Hubery was choked up by her words.

Just then, a staff member came over. He cautiously said, "Mr. Hubery... Miss Eileen..."

Eileen looked at the staff member. She calmly said, "Don't put my name together with his. It not only makes me sick, but I also fear he might go ballistic and attack me at any moment."

The staff member was petrified by her words.

Eileen turned to Hubery. "We've been filming all day, and I'm exhausted. But let me remind you one last time, don't spew that shit again. If you need to take a dump, go find a place to do it."

With that, she turned and walked away, leaving behind a stunned staff member and a furious Hubery.

The filming continued the next day. Today was song selection and team formation.

Eileen sat quietly on the side. When filming ended, it was still early. The director came over to explain the next steps to the stars.

The four coaches were free to leave and return a week later for the first stage performance. However, the three celebrity coaches had to stay. The celebrity coaches were closer to the contestants, less authoritative and more like friends.

The remaining celebrity coaches had to check the dance practice rooms daily to see how the contestants were doing. When Eileen went to check, she was accompanied by the lead dance and music teachers.

The first practice room they visited was Hedy's. Seeing Eileen, Hedy's face changed a bit, but she quickly composed herself and continued dancing.

Eileen noticed that Hedy's dancing seemed strained, which made her laugh.

The lead dance teacher then asked, "Miss Lopez, you seem to know how to dance. Would you like to give them some pointers?"

Eileen shook her head. "No thanks, wouldn't that be helping them for free?"

The dance teacher was speechless.

They didn't stay long in this room and moved on to the second one. In the second room, Eileen saw Karin.

Karin was not the core of this group.

This group consisted of five B-level female contestants. Four were from the same company, and only Karin was not. Karin was always marginalized. She stood in the corner but danced the best.

Eileen's gaze was mostly on her.

After a performance, the other four girls came over to Eileen and asked, "Miss Lopez, what do you think of our dancing?"

Eileen remembered the show's requirement, to encourage the contestants. But Eileen said, "Your dancing is below par. It's not extremely terrible, but it's hard to watch."

The four girls were silent.

The lead dance and music teachers were also silent.

The four girls were somewhat disgruntled. One of them scoffed and said, "We've only been practicing for a day."
