Chapter 101

The moment Eileen stepped out of the airport, she turned around, her curiosity pushing her to look for her fans, to see if they had turned up yet. But before she could see anyone, Egbert had already pulled her into a black business car.

Eileen was plastered against the car window, still looking back.

The car started rolling. Watching the airport entrance get farther and farther away, Eileen sighed and turned her head in disappointment.

The assistant driving the car laughed and said, “Eileen, you’re so popular now. How could your agency let you go back alone instead of sending a car?”

Eileen looked at the assistant curiously, then said, “They probably didn’t think anyone would pick me up.”

Just then, her phone rang. It was a call from Ophelia.

Eileen answered the phone, and Ophelia’s voice came through immediately, “Where are you? Whose car is that?”

Eileen turned around in surprise. She saw a white sedan following them. And driving it was Ophelia.

Eileen told Egbert, “Can you pull over? My agent is here to pick me up.”

Egbert was silent for a moment, then waved to the assistant to pull over,

Eileen switched cars.

Ophelia scanned the departing black business car, then turned to Eileen, “Was that Egbert’s car?”

Eileen buckled her seatbelt in the passenger seat and said, “Yes.”

“Are you and Egbert on good terms?”

“Very good.”

Ophelia frowned, started the car, and said, “I saw your live stream. You’ve attracted a lot of attention. You’re famous now.”
