Chapter 12

On the retum fight, Phyllis was always badmouthing Eileen to Bblythe whenever she had the chance

“She’s bossy like a dictator”

Eblythe didn’t really buy into it. occasionally consoling Phyllis Saving fifteen euros for next time sounds pretty cool, we wont be so stressed then

“But I didn’t buy a single souvenir Our trip to Pans was a waste” Phyllis complained

We can buy next time After bluffing for a bit. Bblythe suddenly glanced at Egbert sitting diagonally in front, whispering Egbert might not be joining us next time”

Phyllis was taken aback. “Huh? Why?”

“Actually, the last guest wasn’t supposed to be him, but Kaleb But Kalco fell sick, so Egbert was asked to fill in for an episode”

1 see” Phyllis said. “I was wondering how our team could afford a top-notch star like Egbert. But it shows how influential Kaleb is if he could pull in Egbert”

“Actually, Egberts first role was with Kaleb They know each other privately, they re good friends

Phyllis nodded satisfied feel lucky to work with Egbert He’s the type of person anyone would look up to

Then, Phyllis started to gossip out of the blue Blythe, what kind of woman do you think someone like Egbert would marry? I can’t imagine”

Blythe thought for a while and said Probably someone gentle understanding with great temperament and good looks?”

Phyllis nodded as she listened. “Only such a woman would be worthy of him.”

“Hey your leg” Before Phyllis could finish a familiar impolite female voice rang out from the front

They both looked over only to see it was Eileen sitting next to Egbert

Eileen, probably needing to use the restroom, got up from her seat stood next to Egbert, and impatiently nudged Egberts knee with hers, seemingly annoyed that his long legs were in her way

This action woke up Egbert, who was taking a nap.

Phyllis and Blythe were a bit homfied by this sight. They thought Egbert would get mad

But the next second Egbert just moved his legs to let Eileen pass without a word

Then they saw Eileen, like a mafia boss, hands in her pockets, swaggering her way to the restroom

Phyllis and Blythe were left in a daze

Finally, Bblythe swallowed and whispered. No matter what type of woman he likes definitely not like this”

Phyllis nodded in agreement. No man would like such a woman. less he’s stUE

The first episode of the show ended in this joyful atmosphere

Everyone went their separate ways after getting off the plane

Eileen was the first to leave She took a taxi straight back to her small apartment with her luggage.

The moment she got home, she collapsed on the bed

After a twelve-hour fight, she was utterly exhausted

She took out her phone from her bag All this time she had been using the phone provided by the show crew and her own phone was dead.

She plugged it in to charge and went to take a bath When she came out the phone was half charged so she unplugged it and tumed it on

She had missed five or six calls and had a dozen unread messages

She glanced at the caller ID. Ableson Lopez s house had called twice Sarah once, Hedy once, and there were two other calls, e from the company and one from Ophelia

Eileen chose to ignore everything related to Ableson’s house and called back Ophelia, while checking WhatsApp

Ophelia picked up quickly She had been watching the live broadcast these days. As soon as the call connected, she started scolding Elleen. “Do you really understand your responsibilities as Travel Concierge? How could you openly act like that towards Hubery Your words were infunating What the hell”
