Defying Fate: The Unstoppable Eileen novel Chapter 245

Downstairs, the housemaid was on a long-distance call with the lady of the house.

They were discussing the best time to get pregnant so that the baby bump wouldn't show up in the wedding dress and whether the weather would be too hot or too cold during the postpartum period.

Just then, a loud noise came from the second floor.

The housemaid almost thought it was an earthquake! She looked upstairs in shock.

"Bang, bang, bang!" The loud noise continued, and it sounded like a fight? Then, a door-banging noise suddenly arose!

She cautiously climbed upstairs to take a look.

There she saw the young master of the house in his bathrobe, standing helplessly at Ms. Lopez's door, gently knocking and cooing, "Let me see your hand, I'm sorry, I was wrong, I shouldn't have fought back, did I hurt you, open the door, let me take a look..."

Upon hearing this, the housemaid hurriedly reported to the lady over the phone in a low voice, "Oh no, ma'am, it seems like things aren't going well, they're having a disagreement, the young master hurt Ms. Lopez..."

Before the housemaid could finish, Egbert's gaze swept over abruptly from the corridor.

the housemaid was taken aback and quickly hung up the phone, then awkwardly returned downstairs!

In the room, Eileen sat on the bed, rubbing her reddened wrist, infuriated.

Egbert had the nerve to fight back after taking advantage of her! She was so angry!

Outside, the man's knocking continued.

Eileen was fuming, but she dared not make a sound. She was afraid that if she made a fuss, it would seem like she couldn't take a loss, and she would feel more embarrassed!

She simply lay down on the bed, pulled the blanket over her head, covering her ears tightly, ignoring the person outside!

The knocking lasted for a long time. After it stopped, Eileen peeked out from under the blanket, raising her right hand, the red mark on it was particularly noticeable.

Eileen swore to herself, "I'll definitely improve my physical strength tomorrow! I'll defeat Egbert!"

The next morning, Eileen got up early. As soon as she came downstairs, she saw Egbert sitting on the living room couch, flipping through the documents she hadn't had time to tidy up yesterday.

Eileen rushed over, gathered the documents, then reached out to grab the material Egbert was holding, shouting, "These are secrets, no peeking!"

Egbert laughed and let go, saying, "Got your eyes on Gentry from BlueSky Group?"

Eileen didn't answer him, she stacked up the documents, put them in her backpack, then picked up her nunchaku and went to the small garden to practice.

As Eileen swung her nunchaku, Egbert leaned against the balcony door frame with his arms folded, watching her back and saying, "Gentry is indeed a talent, but it won't be easy to poach him, he's leading a team, BlueSky Group promised him 10% of the shares when they poached him."

Eileen swung her nunchaku with alternating hands, maintaining her horse stance, without turning her head she said, "Who said I can't promise shares?"

Egbert raised an eyebrow, "How much are you planning to give him, five percent, seven percent? You hold twenty-six percent of the shares, but that's not a lot, Ableson also has twenty-three percent, if you shift shares to Gentry, the controlling rights will definitely change again."

Eileen turned to look at Egbert, challenging, "Who told you I only have twenty-six percent of the shares?"

Egbert was taken aback, and his eyes narrowed.

At this moment, Eileen put her nunchaku on her waist, gestured to Egbert by the door and said, "Come here."

Egbert paused, but straightened up and walked towards her.

As soon as he approached, Eileen threw a punch at Egbert's face, "Beat me and I'll tell you!"

Egbert tilted his head to avoid the attack, his dark eyes slightly raised, his left hand gripping her right hand.
