Defying Fate: The Unstoppable Eileen

Chapter 160

Eileen gently patted her mouth, making sure no rice grains were left around her lips before swallowing. She stared at Egbert across the table and asked, “Why did you choose to be a drill sergeant?”

Egbert picked a piece of meat from his plate and placed it in Eileen’s Eileen immediately chowed it down and told him, “Your bribery won’t work!” Egbert just glanced at her and placed another piece of beef into her plate.

Eileen was delighted at this. After finishing her meal, she continued to eye Egbert’s plate, fork in her mouth. Egbert, knowing her habits, said, “You can help yourself.” Eileen tentatively took some greens, and seeing Egbert had no reaction, she proceeded to take most of the meat from his plate.

Egbert chuckled. After the meal, Eileen asked him again, “Why did you decide to be a drill sergeant?” Egbert casually replied, “They thought I was suitable and invited me “Eileen snorted, “I don’t know what they saw in you, what makes you suitable?” She then grumbled, “I didn’t expect this show to claim it’s a real-life military camp, yet the recruits are celebrities and so are the drill instructors, it’s so fake.”

Egbert took a sip of water and looked at her, “You didn’t want to see me?” Eileen responded, “It’s not that, I just think you and the term ‘soldier’ don’t go hand in hand Egbert raised an eyebrow, “Is that so?” Eileen pouted, “Don’t be mad, you’re a good person, you’re handsome, but the role of a soldier is a far cry from you, it seems a bit off.”

Egbert laughed lightly and said, “Off, huh…” Eileen consoled him, “No worries, your acting skills are great. You play it convincingly. When you ordered them to squat earlier, your aura was spot on, keep it up.”

Egbert didn’t say anything more, just gave her a look. After a while, someone came to get Egbert and he left. Seeing him busy, Eileen didn’t bother him and left on her own. After breakfast, she returned to

her dorm to rest. At 9 sharp, more training was scheduled.

When Eileen got back to the dorm, it was empty. Edna and the others were still squatting, and the other four female soldiers hadn’t returned yet. A few minutes later, Edna and the others finally returned, supporting each other, completely drenched. Seeing Eileen resting in bed, Edna immediately got angry. Just as she was about to say something, the alarm in the hallway suddenly went off.

Eileen’s eyes snapped open, noting the time, 8:55. There was a roll call at 9, so she grabbed her hat and bolted downstairs. Edna and the other two could barely move, but fearing another punishment for being late, they gritted their teeth and followed..

At 9 sharp, all eight recruits were in formation. It was their first time all being present and not late. Generally, besides morning training, soldiers also have special physical training in the morning.

Considering the physical conditions of the eight celebrities, they might not be able to handle such intense training initially.

So, on the first morning, Egbert arranged for them to learn boxing.

This could be seen as a way to help them adjust.

The two officers, or deputy instructors, first demonstrated boxing, then the recruits followed suit, later practicing in pairs.

After the deputy instructors’ demonstration, they started forming pairs.

The boys sorted themselves out quickly, but there was a problem with the girls.

Egbert came over.

Edna immediately reported, “Sir.”

Egbert said, “Speak.”

Edna said, “We want to practice in a group of three.”

By a group of three, she meant excluding Eileen.

Egbert glanced at Eileen, then said, “Alright.”

Edna sighed in relief; she thought Egbert would refuse.

One minute later.

Edna, Patti, and Jaqueline watched in envy as Egbert personally sparred with Eileen.

If they knew that being the odd one out would lead to personal training from Egbert, they would have chosen that.

The boxing techniques they were learning were a piece of cake for Eileen.

During their spar, Eileen told Egbert, “I’ll slow down, so you can follow my lead, no rush.”

Egbert glanced at her, then threw a punch.

Eileen was taken aback, reflexively dodged, then laughed, “Don’t mess around, I might hit you hard.”

Egbert chuckled, then moved on to the second technique.

Eileen didn’t take it seriously and leisurely followed his moves..

But when she got close to Egbert, he suddenly changed his attack direction.

Eileen frowned.

Five minutes later, all the recruits stopped.

The two deputy instructors watched in surprise as Egbert and Eileen suddenly started a real fight.

The camera focused on them.

Eileen dodged Egbert’s attack, her expression turning serious.

Her attacks got faster.

At this moment, she realized that Egbert actually knew how to fight.

And he was extremely good at it.

Eileen muttered a curse, then kicked at Egbert.

But at that moment, Egbert suddenly reached out.

He grabbed her waist with one hand, protected her head with the other, and they both tumbled down.

They landed on the ground, with Egbert underneath.

Eileen was pressed against his chest.

All she could hear was his strong heartbeat.

She was fuming.

Eileen suddenly pushed Egbert’s hands away, jumped up, and straddled him.

She grabbed his hands and pinned them above his head.

Then she leaned down, glared at him, and said loudly, “Egbert, you lied to me!
