Defying Fate: The Unstoppable Eileen novel Chapter 189

Eileen pointed at the TV screen, her face full of surprise.

At this moment, Egbert's gaze fell on Eileen's face.

He fell silent.

After a moment, he tentatively said, "You does look like her."

Eileen immediately said, "Right? I thought so too. Do you have a picture of Isabel? I want to compare."

Egbert shook his head, "No."

Eileen seemed a bit disappointed.

Egbert added, "But I have your picture, it's my phone wallpaper, want to see it?"

Eileen looked frustrated.

This guy must be out of his mind.

Eileen stopped talking to Egbert, reached for the remote, intending to re-watch the recording.

But, Egbert grabbed her hand halfway.

Eileen pulled her hand back, hiding it behind her back, and looked at him.

Egbert stood up and said, "Stop watching."

Eileen still wanted to watch, gripping the remote tightly.

Egbert asked, "Are you hungry?"

Was she hungry?

Eileen rubbed her stomach. They had been driving the whole afternoon, plus she had cried a few times, so she had used up a lot of energy.

She was really hungry!

Eileen put down the remote and immediately stood up.

Egbert turned and walked towards the door.

Eileen quickly followed and opened the door for Egbert, making it easy for the man who was footing the bill.

They had dinner at a nearby seafood restaurant.

The restaurant wasn't big, it only had one private room, and the decor looked a bit old.

While they were waiting for their food, Eileen told Egbert, "This place has been open for many years. When I was a kid, my dad would sometimes take me here to eat."

Egbert rinsed the cutlery with water, dried them and handed them to her, saying, "Your dad is really nice to you."

Eileen immediately boasted, "Of course, he's the best dad in the world!"

Hearing this, Egbert instantly fell silent.

Her childhood, her youth, the most beautiful part of her heart, all had to do with the Howard family.

Under these circumstances, how should he tell her that she wasn't a biological daughter of the Howard family?

What would her reaction be if he told the truth?

Egbert lowered his head.

In the end, he was just too soft-hearted.

He couldn't bear to let her know the truth.

He couldn't bear to see her get hurt.

He couldn't bear to see her world collapse...

After a while, the food arrived.

Eileen took a bite of the French-style butter-fried oyster, then enthusiastically recommended it to Egbert, "It's delicious! You should try it!"

Saying this, she took an oyster for Egbert, then another one, and another one.

Egbert chuckled, gently saying, "That's enough."

Eileen immediately said, "Alright, then you've had enough, I'll eat the rest for you!"

Saying this, she transferred the remaining nine oysters from the plate to her own.

Egbert was a bit helpless.

Eileen was enjoying her food.
