Don’t Fall for the Billionaire Lover

"Plus, this time, only four celebrities have been confirmed on the guest list. Ruben's planning to fill the rest with amateurs. You could easily steal the spotlight."

Chloe found the whole idea of the reality show almost laughable. It was set to start filming soon, yet only half of the eight celebrity guests were confirmed. She figured the remaining spots were probably still up in the air, hence the frantic scramble for replacements.

"It's just a tropical island getaway show. Think of it as an all-expenses-paid vacation. Just relax and enjoy yourself."

Tony grew anxious at Chloe's silence. His job was to convince Chloe to join the show. But he had known her for so long, and he knew she wasn't easily swayed. If she didn't want to do something, no amount of persuasion would change her mind.

Tony cautiously pressed on, "Chloe, do you have any concerns? If there's anything bothering you..."

"I'll do it!"

Chloe's sudden response caught Tony off guard. She was surprisingly agreeable today. He hadn't even needed to use his full persuasive arsenal. Chloe smiled, "I'll go. The crew starts filming tomorrow, right? I should head back home and pack my bags.

Tony was so surprised that he momentarily lost his words.

"Is there anything else?"

Tony shook his head. "No, that's it."

Chloe patted Tony's shoulder. "Alright then, I'll go get ready." She left through the stairwell first.

"

Tony, still in a bit of shock, soon couldn't hide his smile. He quickly made a phone call to report, "It's done. I've managed what you asked. She agreed to join the show."

After hanging up and basking in his success for a moment, Tony also left.

After Tony's departure, a head peeked out from the upper level of the stairwelt: Pax had been looking for Chloe but hadn't found her. The fact that Chloe was avoiding made him feel dejected. He randomly pushed open a fire door and sat on the stairs, feeling gloomy. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

However, it wasn't long before he heard the sound of the fire door below opening. Then, he overheard Chloe and Tony's conversation. Was Tony convincing Chloe to join a new reality show? Initially, it seemed harmless. But what puzzled him was the phone call Tony made afterward. Pax couldn't shake off the feeling that Chloe was being manipulated.

Pax's face grew serious. He recalled the details Tony mentioned. Ruben's new reality show? Coincidentally, he knew Ruben.

Two years ago, when Ruben was in

France shooting a commercial for a luxury brand, a model threw a

to

tantrum, and Pax had stepped in help. It was through Ruben that he got a foot in the door of the

modeling world. Ruben had said he owed him a favor, but they hadn't been in touch since. Fortunately, he had kept Ruben's contact information. Pax picked up his phone and dialed a number...

Meanwhile, Connor was also on a call. It was Diana who had called.

"Uncle Connor, please don't be upset. I had no idea the show was produced by Eldridge Entertainment. When the crew invited me and mentioned they'd invite you too, I agreed."

Diana cautiously asked, "Did the crew really not invite you?"
