‘Previously, Rebecca practiced dancing with him alone, and the paparazzi exposed it.’
‘There’s definitely something going on between these two.’
‘Could they have had a secret romance before? Did Rebecca get dumped by Aaron?’
‘It doesn’t seem likely. From the beginning of the show, it was Aaron who initiated conversations with Rebecca.’
‘Rebecca seems to be avoiding getting close to him. That doesn’t seem like someone who got dumped.’
‘But there’s undoubtedly some connection or conflict between them.’
‘Let’s investigate this, paparazzi.’
Among the viewers, there was actually someone who owned a paparazzi company.
Upon reading the comments, they also felt that the relationship between Rebecca and Aaron was worth further investigation. If they uncovered something, it could be a major revelation. So, they instructed their paparazzi team to get to work.
Aaron realized that engaging in verbal disputes with Zac and Rebecca was a surefire way to invite trouble. They countered his comments every time, which frustrated him, mainly because Rebecca consistently took Zac’s side. Aaron began to question if she genuinely considered him her brother. The more he dwelled on this, the more discomfort and jealousy grew within him. After all, she was his sister, not Zac’s. As he directed his gaze towards Zac, a flicker of hostility became apparent on his face.
Furthermore, a previous incident concerning slots had already created a rift between them. This made Aaron wonder whether Zac had ulterior motives to separate his sister from him. When Aaron locked eyes with Rebecca, her demeanor appeared cold. Aaron realized that this situation couldn’t continue. He couldn’t allow Zac to take his sister away. He needed to find a way to bring her back.
Regarding the request from the four brothers to teach her a lesson and make her realize her mistake, he could temporarily set that aside.
Being her brother, allowing her to win for once didn’t appear to be a significant matter. It was a means to mend their relationship and avoid giving Zac the satisfaction of victory. With this in mind, he turned to her and asked in a gentler tone, “Are you cooking this afternoon?” Even though Rosie had recently started cooking, he still believed Rebecca’s culinary skills were superior.
Rebecca glanced at Aaron and replied, “Someone invited us for a meal, so I’m not cooking.”
This left him speechless. He had initially planned to approach her while she was cooking to help mend the relationship.
On the side, Zac noticed Aaron’s attitude toward Rebecca was slightly off. She was generally easygoing, but there was a lingering resentment toward Aaron and Rosie. Suddenly, it struck Zac that the Collins Family had found their long-lost daughter, yet they hadn’t disclosed her identity publicly or included her in social gatherings. What perplexed him was that they still treated their adopted daughter as the family’s heiress.
When he recalled the past few days of interaction between the Collins siblings and Rebecca, he suspected she might be the long-lost daughter the Collins Family had found. It seemed like they mistreated her, which led her to distance herself from the Collins siblings and potentially harbor a sense of aversion toward them. At this moment, Zac felt like he finally understood.
This realization further deepened Zac’s dislike for Aaron and Rosie. He pondered, If Rebecca wants to distance herself from them, why do they keep insisting on approaching her? They’re so annoying.
He smiled smugly at Aaron and said, “Don’t worry; I’ll take pictures of the meal and share them in the group chat when we eat. Then, you’ll know what you’re missing.”
Aaron was left speechless, thinking, Who the hell wants to see what you’re eating? That’s just masochistic. He snickered sarcastically and said, “Well, thank you.”
With a grin, Zac responded, “You’re welcome. I’ll satisfy your curiosity since you seem to enjoy it.”
Aaron was at a loss for words, thinking, This guy is as annoying as ever. “That’s unnecessary; it’s too much trouble,” he refused.
Nevertheless, Zac happily said, “No worries, it’s not troublesome.”
Aaron struggled to contain his annoyance, unable to comprehend Zac’s obliviousness. Since it was a livestream, he held back from voicing his true feelings, but he felt both irritated and frustrated.
Meanwhile, Rebecca observed Aaron’s efforts to suppress his irritation and thought he deserved it. She found Zac even more endearing now.
Just as they arranged the food on the table and hung the meat in a basket over the well, Deuce came over to invite the four of them to dinner at his home.
In gratitude for saving the children’s lives, Deuce’s family had explicitly gone to town to purchase chicken, duck, and fish, preparing a hearty home-cooked meal.
Before they began eating, Zac snapped a photo with his phone and shared it in the group chat.
On the other side, Rosie was responsible for washing and chopping vegetables to showcase her efforts. She had put a lot of work into preparing four dishes and one soup, presenting them in an aesthetically pleasing manner.
The other three each took a bite of the dishes, finding them edible but rather ordinary in flavor. Leyla thought the food wasn’t as good as the meals they had on set.
Their phones chimed with notifications, and they opened the group chat to find Zac’s shared photo. It displayed a table filled with various dishes, and although it lacked the presentation of a restaurant, the food looked delicious.
All four of them, including Rosie, suddenly lost their appetites. However, being hungry from a long day’s work, they had no choice but to continue eating.
Moments later, more notifications arrived. They clicked on them almost masochistically, only to see Zac taking a selfie while enjoying a drumstick. The selfie was accompanied by a message. ‘This drumstick is roasted to perfection. It’s so good!’
After a while, he deliberately sent pictures of grilled shrimp and deep-fried pork ribs with a message.
‘These shrimps are grilled to perfection and have a delightful sweetness. Delicious!’
‘First time trying oregano pork ribs. Yum!’
Rebecca also chimed in, ‘I love the grilled shrimp dish. It’s so sweet!’
Keira added, ‘I like the oregano pork ribs. They’re so aromatic.’
Eric replied, ‘I prefer the bacon-wrapped meatloaf. It’s better than anything I’ve ever had.’
At this point, Aaron and the others were lost for words. They wanted to vent their frustration to the other group.
Aaron couldn’t hold on any longer and said, “I want to block Zac.”
Leon chimed in, “I’m kind of thinking the same.”
However, Rosie and Leyla remained silent, wearing only a smile. After all, Zac was a top-tier celebrity. Speaking out like this during the livestream might incur criticism from his devoted fans.
Just then, Aaron stretched his finger to the setting button. “Then, I’ll just block him.”
But Rosie, sitting beside him, advised, “Don’t do it, Aaron. Blocking him might prove inconvenient if something important comes up. Besides, I enjoy seeing Mr. Turner’s daily posts about delicious food.” In truth, she said this to earn favor with Zac’s fans in the livestream.
After hearing her words, he had to stop his actions. Although he wasn’t too happy about it in his heart, on the surface, he still habitually showed an indulgent smile. “Okay, I’ll go with what you say.”
Leyla glanced down at her food, pursing her lips, and pondered, One is hypocritical, and the other is too unconditionally doting. She then wondered, If I were dating Aaron, who would be more important to him: me or his sister? If both
Rosie and I were drowning, he would probably jump in to save Rosie. With these thoughts, she suddenly felt disconnected, and her affection for Aaron diminished.
Since Leon was aware of Aaron and Rosie’s relationship, he didn’t find it strange at all.
During the live chat, fans of the sibling duo praised their sweetness and affection. On the other hand, Rosie didn’t leave a favorable impression on Zac’s fans.
“If he wants to block, let him block. Zachy has never been afraid of being blocked.”
“With Zachy’s way of speaking, who knows how many people have blocked him? One more by Aaron won’t make a difference.”
“There’s no need for Jojo to play peacemaker here.”
From that point on, the comments in the live chat took a different turn.
“I suddenly realized Aaron is very devoted to Jojo, but she doesn’t seem to care much about him.”
“I noticed that a long time ago. Aaron and Zac don’t seem to get along, but Jojo doesn’t support her brother.”
“The key is that Zac has criticized Jojo several times before.”
“If it were me, I wouldn’t be so forgiving.”
“So, is Jojo forgiving or just pretending?”
