Chapter 286
[Don't forget, the producers said this is a dating show. Could Juztin and Faith actually be dating? If so, I'm totally shipping them already!] [A hard-to-get heartthrob and an aloof goddess? Talk about a perfect match!]
[But come on, have you guys checked out Barrett? The ultimate heartthrob in period dramas. His looks are right up there with Juztin's, no doubt!]
When Faith got off the helicopter, she scanned the crowd and then made her way over to Juztin. She struck up a conversation with him. They had worked together numerous times and were old friends.
Meanwhile, Barrett greeted everyone with a beaming smile. He was incredibly handsome, but... there was something worldly about him. Not sure why, though.
So far, five out of eight guests had arrived, and they were all way more famous than Chloe.
Chloe suddenly remembered what Tony had mentioned earlier there would be some non-celebrities on the show, too. Could one be arriving next?
As she pondered this, the sixth helicopter landed. She had been casually enjoying the sea breeze until she saw a figure in white.
Pax!
Why was he here?!
Grinning from ear to ear, Pax ran over. The live broadcast displayed a brief introduction of him.
"Pax, 21, a French exchange student and part-time model."
The live audience wasn't too excited about him, but a few praised his joyful and handsome looks.
Pax ran straight to Chloe. "Chloe, did you really think you could hide from me? I'd find you even at the ends of the earth, hehe!"
Pax's confession made him a bit shy, and he scratched his head. This caught the attention of Kalilah and Barrett nearby. Kalilah asked, "Do you two know each other?"
"Yes!"
"No!"
They contradicted each other. Chloe massaged her forehead, feeling a headache coming on.
Pax, however, was in high spirits. "I'm trying to win her over, but she hasn't agreed yet."
Pax's words caused quite a stir in the live broadcast.
[The lovestruck boy-next-door and the career woman. This is so ship-worthy.]
[Pax is so cute, looking all clean and cuddly. I bet he smells nice, too.]
[Now I see why guys are into the fresh and innocent girl.]
The last two helicopters landed simultaneously, drawing everyone's gaze.
Who would the last two guests be?
The door of one helicopter opened,Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
and two people emerged from theet same aircraft. The live broadca !?
then
introduced the newcomers.
"Diana, 20, a celebrity artist."
"Connor, 28, CEO of CNR."
The live chat went silent for a second before exploding with comments.
[Production team, Ruben, I gotta hand it to you. This is the strongest lineup in reality TV history, hands down.] [Isn't that a bit much? We have a basic celeb and a CEO. Lots of CEOs are into reality shows these days.]
[Are you an alien? Maybe you haven't seen Connor, but surely you've heard of him? The heir to the wealthiest family, sole successor of the Sartori Corporation, member of the Eldridge Elites-that's Connor.]
[Could this be a sugar daddy situation?]
[Did you guys not notice that Diana got off Connor's helicopter? OMG! What's their relationship?]
[Diana's no ordinary person either. She's from one of the four grand families of Eldridge City. She's super rich. She shared the same last name with that guy Pax, but her family and Pax's couldn't be more different. One is high aristocracy, and the other is common folk. Such is the injustice of this world.]
[Connor's status aside, don't you think he is bewitchingly handsome?]
