    Chapter 259


    “Why are you here alone?” Downstairs, Jodie was still angry when she heard someone ask her a


    question. She irritably looked up and saw who was approaching, then she frowned in disgust. “Get


    lost!”


    Elyse was used to her arrogant attitude and wasn’t surprised by it. In the past, Elyse couldn’t stand it


    and even fought with Leo because of Jodie’s behavior. As a direct result of that incident, he


    reprimanded his sister, resulting in Elyse and her developing a negative impression of each other.


    Moreover, she had a reason for approaching Jodie, so she didn’t mind her arrogance. She pretended to


    be friendly and said, “I don’t mean anything else bying here. It’ste at night, and it’s deserted


    around here. You’ve never experienced this, so I thought I’d watch for you.” Then, she leaned in and


    pointed to the top of their heads, speaking in a hushed voice that only they could hear. “Cameras are


    installed here in advance, and the production team watches our every move. We can’t talk nonsense.”


    After hearing those cameras were installed, Jodie suddenly remembered that she was participating in a


    TV show. So, is the earlier incident in which ke rejected me captured on camera? She was very


    concerned about her image and felt embarrassed at the thought of the production team seeing her


    viciousness. In addition, she felt so humiliated and annoyed that her face turned red. I hate this! I would


    never havee if I had known it would be on this terrible TV show! Later, she wished she could


    disappear immediately and return to herfortable home as if nothing had happened.


    Then, Elyse patted her shoulder understandingly and led her to arge tree. Since the tree had so


    many leaves, Elyse reasoned, nobody would go near it, and the production team wouldn’t bother to


    install cameras there. After ensuring it was safe, sheforted Jodie with a few words. “It’s fine. The


    production team will decide what to broadcast regardless of what is captured on camera. Moreover, the


    Alston Family is a force to be reckoned with. They definitely won’t air any clips that upset you and Leo.”


    Soon, Jodie’splexion improved a little after hearing her words. If those clips were broadcasted, the


    entire country would see ke ignoring her, and she would be embarrassed to face people in her


    social circle in the future. Even if they weren’t aired, she couldn’t be reckless and forget about it. After


    all, the production team knew, and while they wouldn’t say it out loud, they must beughing at her in


    their hearts. She thought about it and felt so upset that her eyes turned red.


    “By the way, where’s key?” Elyse asked, pretending to care.


    However, Jodie pouted and didn’t respond.


    Nevertheless, Elyse pretended not to know ke had rejected her and praised him. “ke is a great


    person. He’s good-looking, talented, has a good personality, and I heard he’s very loyal. He’s


    impable.”


    “He hasn’t even been in a rtionship yet, so where does his loyaltye from?” Jodie finally


    responded with a hint of contempt and sarcasm in her words.


    Then, Elyse chuckled and covered her mouth. “Yeah, I was talking nonsense. If he was in a


    rtionship, why would hee to participate in this program?”


    All text ? N?velD(r)a''ma.Org.


    The seemingly casual remark immediately made Jodie think of Foxy. That horrible woman! She’s


    always cozying up to ke for no reason. He obviously came for her! The more Jodie thought about it,


    the more annoyed she became. So, she picked up a stone from the ground and threw it hard at the tree


    opposite, causing a loud thud.


    Seeing that, Elyse smiled and seemed to not want to disturb Jodie anymore. Thud! She was about to


    leave when something fell from her hand.


    Afterward, Jodie lowered her head to pick up another stone to continue throwing at the tree, and her


    gaze soon fell on the object. It was Elyse’s phone. Although the phone had no signal, it couldn’t make


    calls or go online but could still take pictures. There was a photo on the screen, and as the light


    reflected from it, Jodie’s expression changed visibly when she saw it. She didn’t even bother picking up


    the stone and instead picked up the phone. Confronting Elyse, she asked, “What does this photo


    mean?”


    Elyse coughed awkwardly and quickly tried to snatch her phone back. “Jojo, pretend you didn’t see it,


    okay? I saw your brother feeling sentimental, that’s all… So, please don’t tell your brother.”


    Meanwhile, Jodie dodged sideways, causing Elyse to miss the phone. Her eyes were fixed on the


    photo, which was taken upstairs. Despite the dim light, Jodie could see the white fox mask at a nce.


    My brother is sitting beside her, his eyes lovingly fixed on her. She even has his jacket draped over her!


    “Does my brother like Foxy?” When Leo agreed with Foxy’s opinion earlier, Jodie didn’t think much of it.


    She didn’t suspect anything was wrong until she saw the photo. “How is that possible?” The fact


    shocked her. “How could my brother show such affection to an unknown woman so quickly?”


    She knew a great deal about her brother. Despite his stern and aloof demeanor, Leo is pretty


    affectionate, particrly regarding his romantic rtionship. Apart from Elyse by his side, there is


    Amelie, who has divorced him. Even Amelie, who has been with him for four years and has given him


    her all, cannot win his heart. How does Foxy manage to capture my brother’s heart so quickly?


    “What kind of hypnotizing skills does Foxy have? It’s one thing for key to be attracted to her, but


    even my brother—” Jodie’s eyes bulged with rage and sadness.


    This woman is here to ruin me, right? Both men who got involved with her are mesmerized by her!


    “She’s shameless by ying with two guys simultaneously!” Nheless, she was not a forgiving


    person. The man she liked and her brother had fallen for the same woman, which was a great shame


    for her. It was like Foxy repeatedly pping her in the face or rubbing her face in the dirt. Suddenly,


    Jodie tightened her grip on the phone, her thumb twisting into an odd shape and her face darkening.


    When Elyse saw that her goal had been achieved, she didn’t stay for long. She pretended to be


    embarrassed and forcibly took the phone back, covering her face and running away.


    …


    The following day, the members of Team A gradually returned to the minibus. The whole group was


    exhausted and copsed before reaching the bus.


    “Miss Foxy’s analysis was right. The key isn’t easy to find.” A member from Team B, Gordon Jark,


    spoke up.


    “She has 100 million fans on social media. If she’s not capable, how could she achieve that?” Giada


    spoke up. Even though she was green with envy on the inside, she couldn’t show it because she was


    still in the program. Instead, she looked at Amelie with awe, mirroring Gordon’s expression.


    On the other hand, ke sat quietly at her side. His bangs fell gently over his eyes as he gazed


    absently in Amelie’s direction with a soft, shy grin on his lips. “She’s always been so outstanding,” he


    chimed in, his eyes deepening. He tried hard to be worthy of her, but he still couldn’t catch up to her.


    His affection for her was almost instinctive and couldn’t be concealed.


    However, Gordon pressed his nose and hid his smile. “It seems like you like her a lot, key. How


    come I heard that you used to like someone with thest name Dillon?”


    Then, ke grunted lightly without exining further.


    Meanwhile, as Jodie watched from the sidelines, she felt a sudden, sharp pain in her chest at the


    sound of his soft grunt. Then, she red at Foxy, not far away, who was standing next to her brother.


    The two of them were engrossed in conversation.


    That shameless woman! Soon, a ruthless and vicious look appeared in Jodie’s eyes. You better watch


    out!
