When I Was A Wallflower Chapter 260


    Chapter 260


    Seeing the hatred lurking in Jodie’s eyes, Elysenguidly strutted over with a worried look. “Fabian and


    Fiona have not returned. Miss Foxy has volunteered to go look for them, but Chester doesn’t want to


    go. What about you?” “Why should we look for them? They’re in Team A. Naturally, their teammates


    should be responsible for looking for them if they’re missing. We should use our remaining stamina to


    look for the key and leave!” Giada objected.Hearing that, Gordon nodded. “The production team won’t


    leave them be. We should focus on our own task.”He then turned to Jodie. “What do you think, Miss


    Alston?”Jodie had been the most vocal about wanting to return the other day. Therefore, he believed


    she was most likely to agree with him.“I don’t know,” she coldly answered before walking


    away.Instantly, confusion was written across his face. Have I offended her in any way?


    Meanwhile.“Everyone has been split into groups, so looking for them is not our job. We have no reason


    to waste our time for them,” Chester insisted on sticking to his boundaries. “Miss Foxy, I know you want


    to be nice, but please remember that anyone who finds the key wins and can leave early. As for the


    other team, it is naturally the production team’s responsibility.” Ultimately, his words came off as rather


    heartless, even though they were merely debating their respective standpoints.“While you’re not wrong,


    Fabian is a member of our team. Even if we have the key, we cannot leave without him,” Amelie said


    darkly. She did not get angry at him for his cruel words, though.Her response made Chester gape in


    shock, and he eventually threw something in frustration. “Fabian is even our team leader! Why is he so


    unruly? He’s dragged our entire team down with him!”He then nced at Giada. “Either way, I don’t


    agree with looking for him. The production team only said anyone who finds the key first gets to leave


    first. They didn’t say the entire team needs to leave together.”Nevertheless, Amelie did not believe that


    Fabian hadmitted any wrongdoing. The purpose of this show is for people to confess their love to


    the person they have a crush on. His actions are spot-on with what the show wants.“So, why don’t we


    let Mr. Alston make the call?” Chester turned his attention to Leo after realizing he couldn’t persuade


    Amelie.Although Leo might be a man of few words, his actions were much more effective. He was also


    much better at analyzing situations. He was unanimously recognized as the group’s leader during his


    brief time with them.Then, Chester shook his head when he turned to Leo and even shot Amelie a look.


    “Miss Foxy might be popr among the viewers, but she can be short-sighted.” Implicitly, he was


    using her of being an emotional woman.Still, Amelie understood what he meant but simply smiled


    instead of arguing against it. Since I am a woman, showing my feelings is perfectly eptable.In


    contrast, Leo did not respond immediately to Chester, but instead, he coldly stared down at him. As the


    sun rose, it shone upon him, making him appear even more attractive and handsome.Then, she turned


    to stare at Leo through her mask when she heard Chester’s question. At that moment, she looked


    directly into his eyes and felt her heart skip a beat at the icy intensity of his gaze. Like Chester, a man


    like Leo will undoubtedly prioritize profit and victory. She worriedly frowned at the thought.“We’ll split


    up. One group will focus on looking for the key, while the other group looks for the other,” Leo abruptly


    dered.However, Amelie was taken aback by his words and narrowed her eyes at him. He still has


    the same icy expression as before, and the only indication of emotion on his face is his lips are pursed


    tightly, revealing his determination.On the other hand, Chester was so confident that Leo would fully


    agree with him, but he was surprised to hear the decision. After all, it would affect their search for the


    key. However, they were being recorded at all times. If he continued insisting on searching for the key,


    his reputation would be impacted when the show was finally aired. Hence, no matter how unwilling he


    was, he had to nod and pretend to be understanding. “You are both thoughtful and thorough.”Since


    they had decided to divide into two groups, it was time for them to divide amongst themselves.“I’ll look


    for the two missing people,” Amelie volunteered.“I’ll look for the key,” Chester stated. They had both


    chosen ording to their own stances.The others were soon divided into teams as well.“I’ll go look for


    the two of them,” ke said, joining her without hesitation.As soon as Leo heard that, he scowled, and


    his demeanor turned even colder.“I’ll go look for them as well,” Jodie dered, going over to their team


    in an unusual turn of events.Then, Giada turned to Leo. “I’ll follow Mr. Alston. Whichever team he joins,


    I will.” She began to shoot him with obviously flirtatious looks.His cold gaze never looked at her, so he


    naturally did not notice her flirtation.Seeing that, a chill spread within Elyse’s eyes. Still, she did not say


    anything about it. “While I’m worried about Miss Shaw and Mr. Hargreve, I was raised as a delicate and


    sheltered kid,” she said with a chuckle. “If I look for them, I’ll easily give them extra trouble. So, I’ll look


    for the key.”When Gordon observed that everyone had chosen a side, leaving the team searching for


    the key with only a handful of members, he dered that he would search for the key.After they were


    done dividing into groups, they began to eat their breakfast.So, when the show host knew they would


    look for Fabian and Fiona, he told them where the two had likely gone.After breakfast was over, Leo


    told Giada to stay for the search. His words made Chester so happy that he had to add his convincing


    voice. Despite her reluctance, she remained because she did not wish to appear too defiant and give


    Leo a negative impression of her.Soon, the other four team members entered the forest ording to


    the host’s clues.While it was not a dense forest, it was particrly dark due to how tall and leafy the


    trees were. They were so tall that barely any sunlight made it through the canopy, making the area


    within the forest rtively humid. They could only smell the cool breeze of fresh air and the damp


    stench of rotting nts.At that time, Jodie rubbed her nose in difort. Without a specific goal, I


    would never willingly walk through this ce!While ke walked at the back of the group, Amelie


    frequently turned to check on him, worried that he would overexert himself and trigger an asthmatic


    attack. He would smile at her every time and shake his head to indicate he was doing fine.Meanwhile,


    Jodie was walking between the two and saw them exchanging nces and clenched her hand so


    tightly that her nails dug into her palm. I wish I could strangle this b*tch to death. What a flirt!“The path


    splits into two here, and both seem to have been walked through. We cannot be sure which path they


    took,” Leo said suddenly, stopping and turning to look back at them from the front of the group.Even


    though he was raised in a pampered environment, he ensured that he remained physically fit. Hence,


    the walk was not taxing for him.“I’ll go this way,” Amelie said, pointing to one of the paths.“I’ll go there


    as well!” Jodie swiftly said.Leo blinked and stared at Jodie.She uneasily shrugged and exined, “It


    looks wider and not so scary.”She felt threatened by her brother and noticed his re. He might not say


    much, but his eyes were highly observant. One look was often enough for him to see through a


    person’s demons. Moreover, she was so afraid of him that she did not even dare look him in the


    eye.“Mm.” Ultimately, he did not stop her from doing what she wanted.Although ke wanted to stick


    close to Amelie to take care of her, it felt terrible to force Jodie to walk the more arduous path. “Take


    care,” he said to Amelie with a warm smile.“Got it. You stay safe as well,” she replied.As she thought of


    him as a little brother, she did not think further about the interaction.However, to Jodie and Leo, that


    was not the case. He shot Amelie a cold, forceful re before silently marching away. On the other


    hand, Jodie couldn’t hide her rage as her nails dug into a nearby tree, snapping its


    branches.Eventually, the four had now split up.Amelie and Jodie continued hiking into the forest, and


    thirty minutester, a deep ravine appeared before them. The ravine’s stream flowed down a cliff, and


    its waters were so swift that it seemed dangerous.Amelie noticed faint footsteps on the ravine’s edge


    and had to kneel to get a better look at them.She is directly facing a cliff, and a slight nudge will cause


    her to lose her footing and fall into the river below. Despite her fears, Jodie gritted her teeth and inched


    closer to Amelie. So, she reached out her hands in silence…N?velDrama.Org owns this.
