Chapter 318
Lovebot continued, "We won't be showing the votes, just the results."
"Alright folks, one at a time, head into the booth."
Kalilah quickly stepped out of the tent when she heard the announcement. She was the first to cast her vote in the little dark room. Chloe was the last to go in.
Inside, Chloe found nothing but a plain table with a small lamp on it. On the table were a card and a pen. The rule was simple: write the name of your crush on the card and drop it into a box that looked like a piggy bank.
Chloe didn't take long and soon came out. At Lovebot's request, the men and women lined up in two rows.
After a while, Lovebot started announcing the results.
"Unfortunately, only one couple matched in this crush vote."
Everyone looked surprised, and the live chat went wild.
[Only one couple? My money's on Diana and Connor]
[Yeah, they seem to be the only mutual crush. Clax is cute, but it looks like one-sided love from the younger guy]
[I'm dying to know, if only one pair made it, where did everyone else's votes go?]
[Stop dragging it out, just tell us already!]
Lovebot floated above everyone before announcing, "The successful match is Juztin and Faith!"
Lovebot's mechanical voice continued, "Now, please, lovebirds, head to Angel Island and enjoy your romantic dream journey."
"Wow! It's me!"
"Yay! Juztin, it's us! High five!"
Faith eagerly high-fived Juztin and twirled around, lifting her dress hem with pride. The helicopter arrived quickly, and Faith and Juztin boarded together. Waving goodbye, Faith called out, "Ladies, make way! Lobster, shark fin, and foie gras, here I come!"
The live chat buzzed:
[Faith looks more excited about the food than the date]
[Even though Faith and Juztin are a screen couple, they hardly talked today, didn't see that coming]
[They seem more like old friends. Sure, they're both good-looking, but no sparks flying]
[I can't believe Connor and Diana didn't make it. Who did they vote for?]
[I just need to know who Chloe's crush is! Judging by Pax's face, it's definitely not him!]
[I'll pay extra, just show us the votes, production team!]
After Juztin and Faith were whisked away in the helicopter, Lovebot continued, "The rest of you, stay on Devil Island and look forward to tomorrow's journey of the heart."
Pax walked over to Chloe looking jealous. "Sis, who did you vote for, Juztin or Barrett?"
Chloe gave him a glance. "That's grown-up stuff, kiddo. Mind your own business."NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
Chloe went straight into the tent. Pax plopped down and started drawing circles in the sand, sulking.
Meanwhile, Diana's eyes were
already red. She glanced at Connor,
who wasn't looking at her, lost in his
own thoughts. Diana didn't say anything, just bit her lip and went into the tent.
Once inside, she couldn't hold back her tears anymore. Chloe was about to sleep when she noticed Diana silently crying on her bed.
Then Kalilah walked in. Seeing Diana
in tears, she felt a twisted sense of satisfaction. She approached,. pretending to console her, "Diana, I thought Connor would vote for you. Guess you're not the one he's into."
