When I woke up the next morning, I was still in a daze.
“Wait, did I really touch Donald’s abs yesterday? Am I dreaming, or am I just that amazing now?”
As I went downstairs, everyone was already having breakfast. Jeremy, with a face full of exaggerated charm, brought me a glass of
apple juice.
“Good morning, Yunice,” he greeted warmly.
I narrowed my eyes at him. ‘Flattery from clowns often hides mischief. Why are you acting so nice out of nowhere?”
“Pfft-“Harvey couldn’t hold back his laughter.
Jeremy’s usual self–assured, roguish smile froze on his face, and everyone at the table turned their attention to us.
“I just thought, since we’re all filming this show together, we might as well get along,” he offered, attempting to explain himself.
‘Bullshit! You’re trying to hit on me!‘ I snapped inwardly.
Gasps came from the table, but I wasn’t done. ‘You shameless pig. Yesterday, you were sneaking off with Alicia, playing your sleazy games in the woods, and now you’re here batting your eyes at me? What do you take me for? You’re nothing but an ugly
toad who thinks he can flirt his way to the top!”
The entire table was silent.
“What? He probably took that drug from Alicia last night and slipped it into my apple juice so he could cook up some drama, take
dirty pictures, and blackmail me. Does this idiot actually think he can live the dream of having multiple partners? Please. Does he
have a death wish?‘
“Damn it!” Before I could blink, an irritable Harvey shot up, grabbed the water jug from the table, and hurled it at Jeremy. “I’ll beat you to death, you scumbag!”
Donald’s face was cold as he reached over and took the apple juice from my hand, slamming it onto the table with a thud.
The sudden chaos left me dumbfounded.
Jimmy adjusted his glasses and leveled a steely gaze at the now pale–faced Alicia. “After this is over, you’ll leave the Stone Family.”
Alicia panicked and pleaded desperately. “No, I didn’t do anything! Jimmy, she’s lying!”
“Whether she’s lying or not, the evidence will speak for itself,” Jimmy snapped.
Her hopeful gaze dimmed, replaced by a venomous glare aimed directly at me.
“Why are they fighting all of a sudden? Damn it! Wait, stop fighting! There’s a psycho killer in here!”

Everyone froze, their eyes widening in disbelief.
