Chapter 414


    In a live stream, Bernice caused quite a stir, and everyone was calling her out and telling her to leave


    the show. She couldn''t handle the pressure from all the public bacsh, and ended up leaving that very


    night. She even left all her stuff behind in the grotto.


    #BernicePersonalityCrumbles# quickly became a trending topic on social media. Many people from all


    over were throwing money to keep the topic down.


    However, Chad and Hank wouldn''t back down. If others were willing to pay for public opinion, they''d


    outbid them. After all, their Chief was loaded.


    So, the Bernice incident was all over social media, buzzing like a beehive. Until the next evening when


    a new guest joined Adventures in the Abyss, the buzz started to die down.


    But why was this new guest so popr? Because it was Palmer, the male lead from Endless Longing


    and a TV drama starring Astrid. Palmer was already a well-known celebrity, and this was his first time


    on a reality show. Plus, he and Astrid had just finished working on a drama together, so his addition to


    the show instantly drew more attention than Bernice.


    But Palmer wasn''t one for gossip. On the show, he and Astrid kept it strictly professional, disappointing


    the fans of their drama.


    Palmer didn''t exactly shine on the variety show. He barely spoke, and seemed like he could be easily


    reced. This had fans all worked up.


    Comments read:


    "Is Palmer serious? He''s been on the ind since yesterday and he hasn’t said more than ten


    sentences!"


    "He really doesn''t fit in."


    "Maybe he''s intimidated by Elio''s strong presence, so he doesn''t dare to get close to Astar?"


    "I noticed that too, feels like Palmer is scared of Elio!"


    "Also, Palmer''s reactions are really slow, so are his movements. He’s like a sloth!"


    Thements section was filled withughter, while Bernice, off-screen, looked cold as ice. She had


    hoped to use this show to make aeback in the entertainment industry and expand her fan base.


    But instead, Astrid turned her into aughingstock.


    Now, the projects she had lined up were mostly cancelled, and many investors had started to distance

    themselves from her.


    Bernice was in a bathrobe. Holding a ss of wine, her lips were stained with the red drink. She looked


    sultry.


    She was totally a stark contrast to her public image.


    Then, the doorbell rang.


    Bernice put down her ss and went to answer the door.


    She was surprised to see Hawthorne standing there, "Hawthorne, what are you doing here?"


    It was snowing outside, and Hawthorne came in with a cold aura, looking displeased, "Why did you


    make a decision on your own?"


    "Hawthorne, don''t be so angry. I did it for your own good." Bernice closed the door, brushed the snow


    off Hawthorne, and looked worried, "Why didn''t you rest at home if you''re sick? Why did youe


    here? I know what I''m doing. I won''t let Star and Elio be together!"


    Hawthorne shook off Bernice''s hand with a disgusted look, "There''s no chance for me and Star


    anymore. I''ve been doing a lot of thinking, and I''ve made many mistakes. Now, I just hope me and her


    can go back to being friends."


    "Friends?" Berniceughed sarcastically, "Hawthorne, you''re a grown man. Don''t be so naive. You love


    her, so you must have her."


    "That''s enough!" Hawthorne retorted angrily, "It''s because you''ve been feeding me this wrong idea


    since I was young, so I ended up like this with Star! You also had the one you love, but look how that


    turned out."
