Defying Fate: The Unstoppable Eileen by Lopez family's

Chapter 139

The third stage performance was about to start, with 500 audiences filtering in.

Eileen posted up on the celebrity coach seat, while the staff adjusted her audio device.

A few other coaches also gradually made an appearance.

When Eileen spotted Aurora, she showed up quietly.

She thought Aurora would bail because she didn’t want to record, but it looked like she caved.

Once everyone was present, the host delivered the opening speech, hyped up the atmosphere, and the

show started.

First up was the team of Karin, the champion of the second stage performance.

Their dance number was bang on, causing an explosion of excitement right off the bat.

The audience was pumped.

Next up was Hedy’s team, but their performance as pretty average, as expected.

After their performance, Eileen threw down the gauntlet.

She was challenging Hedy’s team.

Hedy looked like she saw this coming, although her expression changed, she didn’t say anything.

As anticipated, Eileen’s team took the win in this challenge.

Hedy’s team was completely knocked out.

Surprisingly though, Hedy didn’t look ticked off, even Aurora and Hubery seemed pretty chill.

Eileen, sitting in the celebrity coach seat, sensed something fishy.

She could understand Aurora being in a bad mood, keeping mum throughout the recording, but why

was Hubery suddenly so quiet? What’s the deal here?

By the end of the day’s recording, Eileen got back the five eliminated contestants.

Just as she stepped out of backstage, a staff member she didn’t recognize stopped her, “Ms. Lopez,

there’s a dinner party later, would you like to join in?”

Eileen was taken aback, she looked at the staff member and after a pause, she said, “Sure.”

The staff member then said, “It’s at the Velvet Jazz Suite in Royal Mirage Bistro, you know how to get

there? It’s just across the street.”

“I know,” Eileen nodded.

The staff member said, “Can you head over there by yourself then? I still have to notify others.”

Eileen chuckled, “Alright.”

The Royal Mirage Bistro as easy to find.

When Eileen arrived, she saw Aurora getting out of a car.

Upon laying eyes on Eileen, Aurora’s face changed, and she hurried inside.

Eileen leisurely followed behind her.

The Velvet Jazz Suite was just ahead, Aurora rushed in and closed the door behind her.

Eileen didn’t mind and walked over to open the door.

However, the room was pitch black.

The next second, a few people suddenly jump out from the darkness, attacking Eileen…

Backstage of the stage performance.

Karin couldn’t find Eileen anywhere, and saw Chad chatting with the general director in the hallway, so

she walked over.

Chad saw Karin, casually ruffled her hair and complimented, “You danced well.”

Karin wanted to say something but held back seeing the general director nearby.

The general director tactfully said, “Mr. Chad, you carry on, I’ll modify the list later. Starting next

episode, Aurora will no longer participate, and Monica from your company will become the fourth

coach, right?”

Chad nodded.

The general director then left.

As soon as he was gone, Karin immediately asked Chad, “Dad, have you seen Auntie Eileen?”

Chad looked around and said, “No, did she leave early?”

Karin furrowed her brows, “Unlikely, she usually checks on the contestants before she leaves, I just

came from the contestant’s room, they all said they haven’t seen Auntie Eileen, and we can’t reach her

phone either.”

“Can’t reach her?” Chad was taken aback.

After a moment of silence, Chad called over a director from the show’s crew.

The director went around asking and came back after a while, “One of the staff said they heard

someone told Ms. Lopez about a dinner party tonight, so she went. But the weird thing is, our crew

didn’t plan any dinner party today…”

Chad’s face changed, he asked sternly, “Do you know the location of the dinner?”

The director said, “I think it’s at Royal Mirage Bistro, the restaurant across the street. We order takeout

from there sometimes… oh, Mr. Chad….

Chad headed to the elevator, seeing it’s still upstairs, he went straight for the stairs.

Karin followed him, looking anxious, “Dad, nothing’s happened to Auntie Eileen, right?”

Chad kept his lips sealed, not answering. He took out his phone, contacting the bodyguards outside the

TV station.

When Chad reached the ground floor, the seven bodyguards outside were already there.

As Chad headed outside, he said, “Royal Mirage Bistro is nearby, it’s…”

Halfway through his sentence, Chad suddenly stopped, staring at the two people getting out of a car on

the roadside.

“Egbert?” He blurted out in surprise.

In the Velvet Jazz Suite at Royal Mirage Bistro, Eileen sat on the couch, playing with a switchblade in

her hand.

Her fingers glided skillfully over the blade.

“Umm…” Muffled groaned come from the darkness..

Eileen looked up to see Aurora, Hubery, and four burly men, all tied separately to chairs around the

dining table and gagged.

They glared at her angrily.

Eileen stood up and walked over, shaking her head, “You can’t blame me for this. The ropes, the tape,

and what’s this, a candle, a small knife, a whip, you guys brought all this stuff.”

In the middle of all this, Eileen put down her folding knife and pulled out a whip, which she cracked in

the air with a loud “snap”.

After testing the feel, she raised her hand again.

This time, the whip landed directly on Hubery’s face!

“Ugh…”

Hubery writhed in pain.

But he couldn’t scream!

Eileen raised her hand again and whipped Hubery’s other cheek!

This time with more strength, Hubery’s face instantly started bleeding, and the whip got stained with a

fresh red bloodstain.

“Let’s try the candle now.”

Eileen put down the whip, lit a candle with a lighter, and walked towards Aurora.

Aurora shook her head frantically, terrified.

Eileen laughed. “It was your designer who invited me to the dinner party, wasn’t it? You thought I

wouldn’t know? Sorry, I recognized him right away.”

Eileen swayed the candle from side to side, droplets of wax falling from it.

“At the entrance of the restaurant, there was no one except a waiter on the first floor. Hey, where’s the

dinner party? Where’s the entire production team? Where did hundreds of people go? Even if I arrived

early, there shouldn’t be nobody there. Why is it so quiet here? Ms. Aurora, your acting skills really

suck.”

By this time, the wax from the candle had almost all dripped off.

Eileen licked her lips, gave her hand a shake, and a scorching droplet of wax fell onto Aurora’s hand.

Aurora screamed in pain.

Eileen muttered, “This thing is pretty interesting, but the elders at home always say, kids shouldn’t play

with fire, it’s dangerous.”
