Chapter 119
However, Elaine and her group couldn’t see what was happening.
+
Bianca noticed that Trevon had gone to exchange ingredients but hadn’t returned for a long time. A sense of unease crept up on her, along with a bad premonition
Sure enough, a staff member soon mentioned that Trevon was over at Elaine’s side. Bianca’s heart sank.
She knew that Trevon was used to eating Elaine’s food in the past, but she never expected him to completely ignore her pride and go freeloading off Elaine right in front of thousands of live–streaming viewers.
It painted a picture that Bianca wasn’t capable enough. This was a major humiliation for her.
What worried her more was that Elaine’s cooking might win Trevon over.
Suppressing her frustration. Bianca composed herself and headed toward Elaine’s kitchen However, what she found was worse than expected.
Not only had Trevon tried to freeload a meal, but he’d been outright rejected. Elaine had refused to feed him.
Bianca tried to ease the situation by shifting the topic. “Hey, why I
by haven’t you brought the ingredients back yet?”
“Alright. I’m on it.” Trevon snapped back to reality and went to get the ingredients.
Meanwhile, Kayla, who was starving, tagged along with Bianca, curious about when they’d finally get to eat. To her dismay, Trevon hadn’t even returned with the ingredients yet.
When Kayla glanced at Elaine’s side, she noticed that they were almost done eating, Judging by the leftovers on the table, it was a feast with veggies
and meal.
Elaine’s
Kayla’s face fell. She grumbled, “When are we finally going to eat! We’re starving over here. And are we really only getting vegetables for lunch?”
Chelsea and the others overheard this and immediately realized how miserable their meal situation was compared to
Chelsea’s lips curled into a smirk. Her cheeky reaction didn’t annoy viewers. On the contrary, they found her cute.
Kayla’s complaint pushed Bianca to the brink of irritation. Kayla was being stupid to say that out loud. Saying that in front of Elaine was basically serving herself up for ridicule.
At this point, both Trevon and Kayla felt like complete liabilities to Bianca. The viewers would only think she was incompetent compared to Elaine, dragging her reputation through the mud.
Not long ago, she had been building an image as a capable mastermind. Now, Bianca felt utterly humiliated.
Still, Bianca kept up appearances, comforting Kayla with a calm smile. “Don’t worry, Kayla. As soon as my brother brings the ingredients, I’ll cook right away. It won’t be long”
“Alright” Kayla reluctantly agreed, though her sulking face clearly showed her displeasure.
Bianca sighed inwardly. She had hoped they would be helpful, but they were just making everything worse. This variety show wasn’t going well for her. It was suffocating her.
With Trevon gone to fetch the ingredients and Kayla and Blanca leaving, the livestream finally quieted down.
But the culiar discourse was anything but calm.
The moment Trevon’s bold request to have Elaine feed him aired, followed by F Elaine’s veiled jab, it sparked a heated
aliscussion among netizens.
Seeing the spake in viewership and new fans flooding in, the production team cleverly seized the opportunity to stir things up further. When viewers first saw Trevon confidently ask Elaine for food, their outrage skyrocketed.
[F’in speechless. Trestan is just like that shameless coworker I used to have who always hinted at me to treat him to lunch. What a weirdo! We weren’t even Tricods!]
The Years family is so wealthy. Didn’t they bother teaching basic manners? No matter how rich your family is, society won’t tolerate that kind of beluvior. Honestly, Elaine did nothing wrong |

When Elaine fired back, calling Trevon a “begear,” the furious audience couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
[She called him a beggar! Genius! Why didn’t I think of that for my annoying ex–colleague? Next time someone asks me for free food, I’ll use that line.J
[Elaine is a hero. She’s literally speaking on behalf of all of us. I’m just a casual viewer, but I’m so close to becoming her f
fan now.]
[Wow, Elaine’s last line definitely had a hidden meaning. Trevon was stunned silent. There’s got to be some juicy drama behind all this that we don’t know about. I’m dying to find out!]
[Honestly, that ‘mascot title for Bianca is starting to feel really gross.]
The tide of online opinion surged, but Daniel and the production team had it all under control.
More buzz meant more traffic and engagement, exactly what they wanted.
However, the Yeats family called them several times, probably about public opinion, but Daniel didn’t answer.
Their biggest backer was Radiant Media. If the Yeats family wanted to make a scene, they should go after Radiant Media. They shouldn’t trouble a smull–time director like Daniel.
The assistant walked over excitedly. “Mr. Parker, our show has jumped to the top spot. We need to hold on!”
Daniel was full of confidence and made a gesture. “With Elaine here, no problem at all.”
No one dared to openly call people our in the entertainment industry, except Elaine. If she didn’t like someone, she would call them out directly.
Usually, it was always the fans who argued while the celebrities hid in the background.
In the eyes of the audience, Elaine was truly a breath of fresh air.
Just for this reason. Daniel was sure Elaine would be the key to the show’s popularity
Elaine didn’t take what had just happened to heart. After eating, Chelsea and Sebestian went to do the dishes, while she sat in the yard to rest, waiting for the production team’s next task.
Laura
walked over and said to her, “I just saw
“What?” Elaine saw the mysterious look on her face and guessed there must be something going on for her to bring up Trevon
Laura said. “Trevon just tried to trade a fish with one of the villagers for some vegetables. Guess what? The villager said his fish was dead and refused to trade it for freshly picked cabbage. They had a whole basket of it
She added, “The villager reluctantly gave him a small basket and told him not to come back next time. Trevon was so mad, saying the villagers were greedy and it was a bad deal for him. Bianca had to drag him back”
As she spoke, Laura couldn’t help but burst out laughing. She was sure the viewers would roast them online.
Laura asked, “Do you think that small basket of cabbage will be enough for six people to share?”
Elaine didn’t say more.
Laura, the award–winning actress, was starting to show her mischievous side, actually enjoying Trevon’s misfortune.
Although Elaine had expected Trevon to have a rough time, she didn’t think it would be this bad.
The village’s fish pond was leased by Elaine. Since villagers were allowed to fish there, they naturally didn’t care about Trevon’s dead fish.
A small basket of vegetables might look like a lot. But once it’s cooked, it’s probably only enough for one dish
Thinking about it, Elaine couldn’t help but laugh.
By the time Bianca’s group was done fumbling around, it was already almost 2 pm.
When the two teams gathered again, it was obvious Bianca’s team was completely worn out.
Daniel clapped his hands. “Floren Village is so beautiful. This afternoon, we’ve planned a little activity to help you better appreciate the village’s stunning scenery

His words sounded nice, but the guests all felt like there was a trap waiting for them.
