Chapter 149

The crew gathered for a meal, almost two hundred of them.

The private rooms couldn’t accommodate everyone so they were dining in the main hall.

During dinner, Eileen and Egbert were seated together.

Egbert seemed a bit down, not saying a word.

Eileen, being the warm-hearted person she was, served him food and drinks.

Chad, watching from the side, couldn’t help but sneak in a chuckle when he turned his head.

Egbert’s face instantly darkened..

Eileen, seemingly frightened, started peeling shrimp for Egbert, carefully placing the peeled shrimp in his plate, while whispering, “Eat more…”

Egbert didn’t respond and remained silent.

Chad suddenly said, “If you’re not going to eat it, I will.”

And with that, he went for the shrimp with his fork.

Egbert moved his plate aside, looked up, and glared at Chad.

Chad snickered.

Eileen peeled another shrimp and gently put the shrimp in Egbert’s plate.

Egbert glanced at her and finally, he didn’t lash out.

He calmly said, “Just enjoy your food.”

Seeing Egbert no longer angry, Eileen immediately grabbed a huge crab, bigger than her face, cracked it open and started munching away.

They kept eating until 1 am.

On their way back, everyone walked.

After a full meal, Eileen, hands in her pockets, turned to Egbert and asked, “Are you leaving tomorrow?”

Egbert replied, “The day after tomorrow.”

Eileen’s eyes lit up, “So you’re staying for one more day?”

Egbert looked at her, “Are you not welcoming me?”

Eileen quickly replied, “No, of course, I welcome you.” She then started to probe, “Are you free tonight?”
