Chapter 44


    Aurora was undoubtedly a shining star in the entertainment field, and her rtionship with Egbert


    always attracted attention, so it was pretty clear that the show wanted to capitalize on them.


    The mission, as announced, was suddenly altered


    Usually, the mission is to check in at five spots, but this time it’s increased to ten. The locations are set,


    but so is the budget, it’s doubled. However, the time for the mission remains the same” The crew said.


    Hearing this, everyone started to whisper among themselves


    A staff member from the show pped their hands to get everyone’s attention and said, “Since we


    have more tasks this time, we suggest you split into teams. Six people can divide into two or three


    teams.”


    Aurora pouted, “Why is it that as soon as Ie, the mission gets so hard?’ She then turned to the


    others, saying softly, “I don’t know much about this game, I’ll follow your lead.”


    Everyone was silent, and all eyes were on Eileen.


    Aurora hadn’t seen the previous two episodes because she was too busy to watch any variety shows.


    However, she understood the concept of the show. The meaning of Traveller 5+1 seemed to be that


    there were five regr guests and one Travel Concierge, whose job was to take care of their daily


    needs, basically like an assistant


    Knowing that Eileen was the Travel Concierge, Aurora suddenly said when she saw everyone staring


    at Eileen, “Hey, that’s not fair. Are you nning to have her run around taking care of everyone after we


    split into teams? She’s a girl too”


    Aurora thought she made a valid point, showing her calmness and understanding. But after she spoke,


    she found everyone looking at her. She asked in confusion, “What’s up? Did I say something wrong?


    Did you make Stewart do everything in the previous two episodes? Carrying luggage, doing chores,


    running errands? That’s just too much!”


    As she spoke, Aurora started tough, clearly taking her words as a joke. Considering the live cameras


    were on her, she certainly didn’t believe the previous guests would make a girl do everything. They


    would definitely be criticized by the audience.


    “Aurora, I’ll exinter Hubery whispered to Aurora.


    “Exin what?” Aurora asked in confusion.


    Hubery shook his head, indicating now was not the time to ask.


    Eileen shifted her gaze from Aurora and asked the others coldly. “Do you want to split into teams?”


    “We can split Bblythe answered directly. The task is heavy, there are many spots to hit, and we need to


    check in at specific locations. If we split up, we can use our time more efficiently”


    also suggest we split into teams. Hubery interjected. He actually knew Aurora wasing, his


    manager told him yesterday. His manager also told him that this episode might involve team splitting,


    whether into three or two teams wasn’t clear. But if they split into two teams, it would be him, Aurora,


    and Egbert. If three, it would be Aurora and Egbert


    All of this was pre-arranged by the show. The show nned to use the reunion of Aurora and Egbert to


    attract viewers. His manager told him that if he had a chance to work with a top star like Aurora, he


    should seize the opportunity and show off.


    That was why Hubery seemed so happy this morning. With a big star like Aurora around, as long as he


    stayed close to her, he was certain to get screen


    time


    Ignoring Hubery, Eileen asked Bblythe, “How should we split, two teams or three?”


    Bblythe frowned. “Let’s split into two teams.


    Eileen nodded and immediately started splitting, “Me, Bblythe, Josiah in one team, Mr. Reed, Ms.


    Aurora, Hubery in the other, any objections?” She asked, looking at the other three.


    Auroraughed at this, nced at Egbert, and said gently, “I have no objections:


    Hubery also said, “Neither do I.”


    “That settles it then. Eileen interrupted Hubery. “Now let’s start splitting”


    “I have an objection. Suddenly, Egbert, who had been silent, spoke up.


    Everyone instantly turned to Egbert. Aurora’s expression changed slightly, but quickly regained its


    calm.


    Egbert nced at the show’s staff and said nonchntly, “I suggest we split into three teams.”


    Splitting into three teams meant two people per team.


    Eileen looked at Egbert and then at Aurora next to him, smiling, ‘Alright, if we split into three teams, it


    would be more efficient. Who do you want to team with? Ms. Aurora? Or Hubery?”


    Eileen kept her eyes on Aurora as she spoke.


    However, a cold male voice suddenly sounded, “You”


    Everyone went silent


    Aurora squinted her eyes, giving Eileen a cold look. But as soon as the camera turned to her, her face


    switched back to its previous softness. Ellen frowned, asking Egbert directly, “Why me?”


    “No reason.” Egbert said.


    “Well, I’m sorry, but I don’t want to be in a team with you. Eileen said.


    Egbert didn’t respond, just quietly stared at her.


    Eileen turned to Bblythe, “If we split into three teams, Bblythe, we’ll be a team.”


    Bblythe was about to agree when she noticed Egbert’s cold gaze. She shivered.


    Hesitating, Bblythe said, “I’d rather be with Josiah, His wife even messaged me before we left, asking


    me to take care of him and remind him to take his medication.”


    Eileen was taken aback, “Josiah is sick?”


    Josiah chuckled, “It’s just vitamins. My wife is a nutritionist.”


    Eileen said, “Well then…”


    Bblythe quickly said, “You either pair up with Ms. Aurora, Hubery, or Mr. Reed. Josiah and I have


    already decided to be in a team. Right, Josiah?”


    Josiah, catching Bblythe’s hint, nodded and said, “Yeah.”


    Eileen’s face turned sour, and she shifted her gaze to the other three people in the room. Aurora was


    out of the question. She had just noticed that this woman was eyeballing her. Hubery? No way. She


    was afraid she won’t be able to resist punching him every minute, until he passed out.


    As for Egbert, out of all the options, the only one left was Egbert.


    Eileen looked at Egbert. He seemed calm, and he was also looking back at her.


    Eileen, feeling irritated, said, “Whatever!’ After that, she took out the show’s budget she had received


    earlier, twenty thousand yen. She divided it into three parts, and distributed it to the three teams.


    When Aurora took the money, her movements were exaggerated, almost as if she was snatching it


    from Eileen’s hand. Eileen squinted her eyes, thinking to herself, “What’s wrong with this woman?”

    She hadn’t told Egbert not to choose Aurora. If Aurora wanted to be in a team with Egbert, wouldn’t she


    just say it herself?


    Worried about ruining her public image, yet hoping others could see through her and expecting


    everyone to cater to her every whim, did she think she was the center of the world and everyone


    should revolve around her?


    Eileen decided she also had a bone to pick with Aurora!
