Defying Fate: The Unstoppable Eileen novel Chapter 202

The show crew finally had to call the emergency services!

The director's butt got a severe burn, and he was scared out of his wits, with the staff also freaking out.

Since the show hadn't officially started, there were no medical staff arranged by the crew, so the assistant director had to make the call - stop the recording and get the director to the hospital ASAP!

By the time Jarvis and his crew heard that the recording was over, it was chaos outside.

They decided to lend a hand.

As soon as Simon stepped outside, he saw Eileen standing in a corner, looking lost amidst the bustling crowd.

It was the first time Simon had ever seen Eileen look so frightened!

He felt an immediate wave of concern!

Jarvis and Jaqueline noticed too.

They quickly moved towards Eileen.

Jaqueline cautiously glanced at Eileen's face and asked softly, "You okay?"

Eileen kept her head down, looking at her shoe tips, remaining silent.

Simon felt a pang in his heart. He stepped closer, reaching out to comfort Eileen.

But as soon as he reached out his hand, Jarvis stopped him. Jarvis shot Simon a look, probably thinking it wasn't appropriate for him to touch a girl like that.

After brushing Simon's hand away, Jarvis turned to Eileen and suggested, "How about we find somewhere to chill out?"

Eileen looked up at them, her voice just above a whisper, "I didn't do it on purpose..."

Simon immediately responded, "I know, I know you didn't mean it."

Even though Jaqueline didn't like Eileen, she couldn't say anything seeing her in this state.

Simon assured her with a sympathetic tone, "Don't worry. I'm here and I'll help you sort this out."

As soon as Simon said this, both Jarvis and Jaqueline turned to look at him.

Eileen also looked at Simon suddenly.

Eileen sniffed, looking all pitiful as she blinked her eyes and asked, "Really? Will you help me cover the costs?"

The others went silent.

Eileen was on the verge of tears and pointed at the mess in the studio, lamenting, "How much do I have to pay for this?"

"Do you know? They even sent the director to a private hospital! It's a private hospital! The kind that doesn't take insurance! I offered to treat his wound, I know traditional medicine, I can even treat burn scars, but the director refused. I wanted to help him, he slapped my hand away and yelled at me... I was just trying to help!"

The trio was speechless.

Just then, Phyllis ran out!

As soon as she saw everyone, she asked nervously, "What happened? I was halfway through my makeup when I heard that Satan got beaten up, and Gates of Damnation got torn down. Who did it?"

Eileen and the rest was speechless.

Simon rubbed his face, looking drained, "This place is a mess, let's get out of here."

In the end, the five of them left together for the hotel booked by the show crew.

The official recording of the show will start in three days.

As soon as they got back to the hotel, Eileen started worrying about the compensation claim from the show crew.

She did a rough estimate, and the props and medical bills could cost her thousands of dollars!

Thousands of dollars! She could sell herself and still not come up with that kind of money!

Thus, Eileen had a couple of nerve-wracking days.

During these two days, she didn't receive any call from the show crew, but she did get a call from Egbert.

As soon as she answered Egbert's call, there was a gunshot on the other end of the line.

Eileen was stunned.

She immediately sat up and asked, "Egbert?"

There was no one's voice on the other end, just a lot of noise.

Eileen's heart jumped into her throat.

After a while, the noise reduced, and Egbert's calm voice came through, "It's me."
