Defying Fate: The Unstoppable Eileen novel Chapter 154

Eileen wiped her face with the back of her hand, then bent down to start packing up the stuff in front of the tombstone.

Egbert looked at the gifts in front of the grave.

The usually frugal girl had bought a lot of stuff today for her grandparents.

Suddenly, Egbert grabbed her hand and whispered, "Hold on."

Eileen looked at him, puzzled.

Egbert bowed deeply in front of Eileen's grandparents' tombstone.

Then he began to help Eileen pack up.

When they left, they both wore masks.

Eileen had originally come alone and planned to take the bus to the martyr's tomb.

But now Egbert was here, and she could hitch a ride for free. Eileen was quite pleased.

On the car, Eileen asked Egbert, "Did you come specifically to find me?"

"Yes." Egbert answered, then asked, "Why can't I reach your phone?"

Eileen felt heartbroken when she mentioned this. She said painfully, "My phone is broken, and it's the kind of broken that can't be fixed..."

Egbert glanced at her without saying a word, only sending a message at the traffic light.

Soon, they arrived at the martyr's tomb.

Egbert bowed to Eileen's adoptive father in front of his tomb.

Eileen thought Egbert was a really good person.

She introduced him to her father, "Dad, his name is Egbert. He just got dumped by his fiancée. Bless him to find true love soon. Let him be with his loved one forever."

Egbert was about to leave the tombstone. Upon hearing this, he stood up straight and began to bow again.

Eileen laughed and joked, "Are you that desperate to be with a woman?"

Egbert didn't say anything, just glanced at her.

Eileen also started to bow, she said to the tombstone, "Dad, bless me too, bless me to become a rich person, and to make lots of money every day!"

Egbert watched her silently.

When they left the martyr's tomb, it was already an hour later.

When Eileen was at Eternal Rest Gardens before, she felt very sad when she saw her grandparents' tombstones alone. But now that she came to the martyr's tomb with Egbert, she didn't seem so sad.

Eileen was very grateful to Egbert.

When picking up the car, Eileen suddenly saw a person standing next to their car.

It was Egbert's assistant.

After getting in the car, Egbert's assistant drove, and Egbert and Eileen sat in the back.

Eileen curiously asked, "Why are you here?"

Egbert's assistant handed over an unopened phone box from the front seat and said, "Mr. Reed asked me to buy a phone and deliver it over."

Eileen looked at the phone, and her eyes lit up.

She tightly grabbed Egbert's sleeve and pleaded, "Are you planning to change your phone? Do you still need your old one? If you don't need it, could you sell it to me with a discount? Please sell it to me!"

Egbert was taken aback.

He was silent for a while, looking at her pitiful appearance, pondered for a while, then said, "Okay."

Mr. Reed's assistant in the front seat was stunned to hear this.

Didn't Mr. Reed tell him that this new phone was bought for Eileen? How did it turn into selling her his old phone?

Eileen was very happy!

But at the same time, she asked cautiously, "How much are you going to sell it for? I've used your phone, it's not worth much, I can only give up to two hundred dollars... no, a hundred dollars!"

Egbert looked at her and said, "I can give it to you for free."

Eileen asked in shock, "Really?"

Egbert took out his own phone, then turned on the new phone.

He changed the SIM card, then transferred all the data from the old phone into the new one with one click.
