Defying Fate: The Unstoppable Eileen novel Chapter 55

Ophelia shot Eileen a frown. "You know stuff about computers?"

Eileen shrugged, modestly replying, "Just a little. Tiny bit, really."

Without some computer skills, she wouldn't be able to nab PrismPulse Entertainment's dirty laundry before it was aired, then hand it over to Phyllis.

Ophelia stared at Eileen for a moment, then advised, "Regardless how you got the passwords, I suggest you knock it off. We're gonna have someone else manage your Twitter from now on."

Eileen blinked at her. "Manage?"

The implication was subtle.

Ophelia coughed and grumbled, "A few things have happened. Basically, the company sees potential in you and they've made a new development plan for you."

Eileen looked lost. "I don't get it."

Ophelia responded somewhat irritably. "It means, the company will be focusing more resources on you."

Ophelia was being delicate. She didn't want to tell Eileen straight up that her video went viral, got the company's top dogs’ attention, and now, with her online reputation boosted, they had decided to make her their main act next year.

She was worried Eileen might let it all go to her head.

After spilling the beans, Ophelia sneaked a peek at Eileen's reaction.

Eileen was just staring back, her face full of fear and humiliation.

Ophelia felt uneasy. "What's with that look?"

Eileen lowered her head, covered her mouth, and said helplessly, "Ophelia, just tell me. Is there someone from the higher ups who wants to pull something shady on me? Showbiz is such a filthy place."

"Rubbish!" Ophelia was so mad she almost missed a turn. "What the hell do you take our company for?"

Eileen blinked at Ophelia.

Ophelia was so mad that her stomach hurt. In the end, she just glared and told Eileen about her video going viral.

Eileen burst into laughter after hearing it...

Ophelia knew all too well that this person couldn't be praised even a bit, as she'd become conceited at the slightest compliment.

Ophelia yelled, "Stop laughing!"

"HAHAHAHAHA!" Eileen couldn't stop laughing.

Ophelia's face darkened even more. Just then, her phone rang. Ophelia put on her Bluetooth headset and barked into it, "What?!"

A minute later, Ophelia hung up, her expression looking terrible.

She had no mood to argue with Eileen anymore, and told her, "I'll drop you somewhere, then you can grab a cab back to Cinema City."

Eileen looked at her and asked, "What happened?"

Ophelia said, "There's some issue with Colin, I need to head over."

Colin?

Eileen thought of Colin, who shared her dislike for Hubery, and said. "Isn't he supposed to be joining that talent show. He's been taking classes at the company recently, hasn't he?"

Ophelia said, "The show has started, he went for recording yesterday."

Eileen raised an eyebrow. "His recording didn't go well?"

Ophelia shook her head. "There are a hundred trainees, performing their first solo acts over three days. His was a duet dance. His partner had an emergency and is now in the hospital, which might cause him big trouble."

Eileen was stunned.

Ophelia had already found a spot to park the car, and said, "Get off here."

Eileen didn’t move, and she just said, "I'll go with you."
