When they arrived at their destination, Lauren was still in a daze. It was Derek who had helped her down from the oxcart. She looked at Wyneth, wanting to approach and chat with her while affectionately looping an arm through hers. 'But... she knows Finn. By the way Finn is treating her, could they possibly be... a couple?' This realization filled Lauren with a wild excitement that quickly transformed into a touch of sorrow. 'If I were to approach Wyneth now, she would surely think I'm just trying to suck up to her, right?' The more she thought about it, the sadder Lauren felt.

Lost in her thoughts, she heard Wyneth call out, "Lauren." Looking up, she saw Wyneth not far ahead, gazing back at her. "Are you planning to play the snail back there?" Lauren stared at Wyneth's fair, beautiful cheeks for a moment before abruptly bolting forward as if jolted into action, tightly clinging to Wyneth's arm. "Of course not!"

"Let's go then."

"Alright!"

As Lauren followed Wyneth, the cameras shi

    As the destination approached, Giada was overcome with an insurmountable feeling of irritation, keen to unleash her fury. But due to Finn's involvement in the show, she felt obliged to suppress her emotions. Instead, she softened her voice, pleading with an air of melancholy, "I'm not blessed with a strong constitution, you know. It's not like I asked for this. Can't you help me out?"Harry was truly vexed. He, too, wished to vent his frustrations, but the ever-present camera crew forced him to swallow his anger. With him being the only young male in the team, he grudgingly circled back to Giada and asked, in a stereotypically blunt male fashion, "What kind of help are you expecting? It's not like I can carry you, right?"The very idea of having him carry her had indeed crossed Giada's mind but seeing Harry's apparent revulsion nipped that thought in the bud. 'Who does he think he is? I'd rather have Finn carry me if it came to that. What's Harry to me anyway?' With a sweet smile, Gi

    Like when Wyneth wanted to participate in a variety show, Finn tried to dissuade her but failed.So, Finn stayed with her. The same thing happened when Wyneth asked him to leave but he would not listen either.The stubbornness ran in their blood, and they could never persuade each other to do anything.They were just one of a kind.Before they began, Derek asked, "Finn, do you want to make a bet?"Finn narrowed his eyes cautiously as soon as he heard the word "bet". "What kind of bet?"'Is this guy really into my sister?'I'm going to punch him in the face if he dares to drag Wyneth into this.'Derek smiled faintly as he looked at Finn's hostile gaze."I was just thinking that if I won, can you follow me back on Facebook?"Finn was stunned as he heard that. "What?"'Is that it? That's all he wants?'"Is that all?"'No way. It can't be this simple. I'm sure that this brat is just using me to get closer to Wyneth.'Things would be so much easier for him once he got closer t

    However, Derek did not feel any extra pressure just because his opponent was Finn.Instead, he was very calm."Finn, how about this, whoever finishes first will be the winner, okay?" Derek proposed.Finn nodded coldly.Then, he turned his head and looked at Wyneth's face as if he thought about something."Come and cheer for us if you have nothing else to do."After all, he only wanted to milk five more buckets for Wyneth.Wyneth was speechless.She wanted to turn him down, but Lauren had already grabbed her wrist and dragged her over."Finn, you can do this!"Lauren already wanted to cheer for Finn before he asked, but she was afraid that others would think that she was only doing that for attention. However, she ran over without hesitating now that she had gotten the opportunity."Thanks." Finn nodded and shifted his gaze to Wyneth. "What about you?"Obviously, he was asking Wyneth to cheer for him too.At that time, Derek spoke up, "Even though I have a very strong heart

    Although it did not come to the point where everything was spoon-fed to Finn, it was pretty close to that.And now he was going to crouch down and milk a cow?Finn's face darkened as soon as he touched the cow.The cameraman even deliberately zoomed into his hand and the look on Finn's face turned even more awful. Finn just could not bring himself to touch the cow as his hand hovered in the air.Derek smirked after seeing that."Finn, why don't you just follow me back on Facebook directly? I'll milk your ten buckets for you."Finn's expression became even darker."Did I ask for your help?"Derek chuckled. "All right then. I'll get started first, okay?"Finn scoffed coldly, "Go ahead if you want to."He did not feel like talking to Derek anymore.Lauren noticed Finn just stayed there without doing anything, so she squatted down beside him with concern. "Finn, would you like me to help you with this? It looks very tough to milk a cow...""It's fine," Finn turned her down nonc

    Seeing Lauren's eager eyes, Wyneth felt like she was not holding just a jacket, but something very precious."Take it, take it." Wyneth gave it to her."Thank you!" Lauren took the jacket and tie thrillingly.That was probably her first time getting so close to her idol.She initially thought that it was already a great honor to be in the same variety show as Finn. She would never dare to dream of holding Finn's clothes in her arms.Lauren felt like after holding Finn's clothes, she would not need to shower that night. Also, she was going to keep the outfit she was wearing and frame it to cherish it forever.Wyneth had no idea what Lauren was thinking at all. Besides, she never knew what it felt like to be a fan of someone. However, after meeting Yoyo and now Lauren, she could understand them more.Finn was probably provoked by what Derek said earlier, so he adjusted himself and started taking the competition seriously.To him, it was fine to lose a competition or follow just a

    Coincidentally, Wyneth was coming out of the kitchen, and she saw Finn returning with Lauren. Then, she casually said, "Oh, you guys are back. Wash your hands and let's eat. We still have other tasks to do in the afternoon.""Wyneth, did you make all of this yourself?" Lauren looked at the dishes on the table, feeling surprised and astonished. She felt like it must have been very difficult to prepare such a feast."Yeah.""Wow! You're unbelievable! I mean it!" Lauren was genuinely impressed.Derek could not help but lift his brows and smile, giving Wyneth a big thumbs-up.However, when Finn saw the food on the table, his face immediately darkened.He stood there with an icy and gloomy aura. Nobody there noticed it, but the camera captured everything."Let's wash our hands and eat," Wyneth said.She spoke very softly, but her voice sounded gentle and powerful. Lauren recollected herself and reluctantly put down Finn's jacket before going to wash her hands.Derek followed suit.

    On the other side, the trio team did not share the same good fortune. They had wrestled with their morning task till midday, with the lion's share of the work falling to Harry and Henry. Giada had barely lifted a finger. Harry, having borne the brunt of the work, was now exhausted to the bone, his clothes soaked through, looking as though he had been dredged from the depths of a lake. Seeing him in such a state, Giada could not help but recoil, her distaste for his bedraggled appearance plain on her face.Harry, already worn down to a nub, felt a simmering resentment at her reaction. "What are you flinching for? If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't be in this state, would I?"Giada found herself speechless. She longed to retort, but considering she was still teamed up with him, and might need his help in the afternoon, she thought better of it. If she lashed out now, he might refuse to help her later. Biting her lip, she suppressed her temper and forced a chuckle. "I didn't mean anything

    By the time they wrapped up their chaos and returned to their lodging, the other team had already eaten dinner and retreated to their rooms for some well-earned rest. Upon hearing the news, the trio could only exchange blank looks.Meanwhile, Lauren had managed to wash off her day's exhaustion. Despite a day's worth of filming, she felt far from tired. In fact, she was bursting with energy. Fresh out of the shower, she darted straight to Wyneth."Wyneth, you can tell me about your relationship with Finn now, right?" Her curiosity was killing her, an itch she had restrained all day because of Wyneth's steadfast discretion. Now, her eyes shone with eagerness, fixed on Wyneth's beautiful face. "Are you two dating? No, wait, that doesn't seem right. So, is he pursuing you? Gosh, I can't even picture my idol chasing after someone."Wyneth just looked at her, wordless."So, is that it? Is that it?""None of the above," Wyneth finally spoke, shaking her head. "Family.""Family?" Lauren'

    "I heard," Hayden sighed, thinking she might tell him not to touch her."What do you think?" Wyneth asked."Me?" A small smile formed on Hayden's lips as he gently kissed her. "It's whatever you want."Wyneth's eyes sparkled. "So, you'll listen to me?"Hayden hesitated. "Except...""What?" Wyneth's tone shifted to annoyance. "You aren't backing out, right? You just said it's up to me.""It's not that I'm backing out," Hayden said, "I just have one condition. I'll listen to you any other time, but there's one thing I can't do.""What thing?" Wyneth asked.Hayden leaned in and whispered in her ear. Wyneth's face turned a shade of pink, and she pushed him away, gasping."You're such a creep!" she exclaimed.Hayden took her wrist, drawing her close and kissed her earlobe. "What's the matter? Isn't this okay for us? Don't you think so?" As he kissed her, he began to unbutton her collar. His voice was low and smooth. "Just listen to me this one time. For everything else, whatever y

    On the ride home from the hotel, tears rolled down Wyneth's cheeks nonstop. This time, though, she was not alone by the car window. She was nestled in Hayden's arms. He wiped away each tear, comforting her all the way."Don't cry. It's just a mix-up, okay? He said he's fine and will be around for a long time," Hayden whispered.Despite his soothing words, Wyneth's tears did not cease. Seeing this, Hayden, filled with concern, gently asked, "Is this not what you wanted?"Confused, Wyneth looked up. "What are you talking about? I'm beyond happy he's alive."Hayden smiled, gently wiping her eyes. "Then why are you still crying?""I'm crying because..." Wyneth bit her lower lip, with Hector's words echoing in her mind.She had always been upset, believing her father had not wanted her years ago. But just as she was about to leave, Cindy pulled her aside. "Wyneth," her mother said gently, "your dad did want you. When I divorced him, I had just one demand.""What was it?""I wanted o

    Everyone was silent. Just before entering the private dining room, Wyneth blurted out, "Is he really dying?" Hearing this, Andrew's steps halted. Before he could answer, she added, "How long does he have? Why didn't anyone say anything before?"Andrew sighed and turned around. "Is that why you're here?" Wyneth pursed her lips. A wave of uncertainty washed over Andrew. 'This mom and daughter,' he thought, 'they're here because they got it all wrong. Mom is acting differently toward Dad, too. She was all tough before, but now she's gone soft, probably thinks Dad is dying. And Dad? He's just laughing, like he's having a good time with all this mess.' Andrew hesitated, then said, "Let's talk inside." He chose to hold his words for now.Hayden and Wyneth walked into the private dining room. Cindy was passing dishes to Hector. As they entered, every pair of eyes turned their way. A divorced couple and six sons stared at Hayden. Used to the predictable world of leadership, Hayden now ventur

    In the end, Wyneth decided to stay. She could see the honesty in Matilda's words and knew she was sincere. Recognizing Matilda as not her birth mother made Wyneth realize she should not hold her to the same expectations. With acceptance, she focused on building her future with Hayden, freeing herself from doubts and reservations.With Wyneth's decision to stay, Matilda's heart swelled with joy and immense honor. Realizing Wyneth's sincere intentions, not merely chasing the Hamilton family's wealth, transformed their relationship. Matilda's newfound warmth toward her was evident. Gifts, once withheld, now freely flowed into Wyneth's room. At auctions, Matilda eagerly bid on items for Wyneth. During jewelry store visits, Matilda generously bought her gifts, swiping her credit card without hesitation, and welcoming her nearly as a daughter.Wyneth received a call from her mother. Even after so many years, her mom, Cindy, was still bossy. "Your father isn't doing well. You should come to

    Just at that moment, a knock sounded from outside."Sir, your mother is back," someone said.Hayden could feel the person in his arms stiffen, her body tensed. "Don't worry, I'm right here," he reassured her softly."Your mother heard that Ms. Walford is here. She wants to see her," the voice from outside continued.'Meet me?' Wyneth bit her lower lip lightly. 'Why does she want to see me? To insult me again?'"She hasn't eaten yet. She can meet her after eating," Hayden said, gently turning down the request for Wyneth. Outside, everything fell silent."Won't this offend your mom?" Wyneth's voice filled with concern as she asked.Hayden looked at Wyneth, pausing for a moment before speaking. "I know she's been mean to you," he said. Wyneth's eyes widened in surprise. "I'm sorry." He bent down and lightly kissed her forehead. "You've been treated unfairly." Seeing her blink, he added, "Let's eat first. After that, I'll go with you."Wyneth was a bit nervous, but not as anxious a

    Hector was speechless as Cindy mistakenly thought he was ill. Seeing her worried face, he felt the misunderstanding might not be so terrible. He shared a look with Andrew. His eldest son caught on immediately, giving a subtle head shake. Understanding the signal not to mislead Cindy any further, Hector hesitated before gently asking, "Can I see her? Even just a glance?" It had been many years since he last saw his daughter up close, and she had not called him "Dad" in all that time.Cindy, lost in thought, stared at Hector before finally nodding as if admitting defeat. "Fine, I'll call her."Later, Wyneth fell asleep. Upon waking, she found herself on the large bed in Hayden's bedroom. She saw Hayden sitting at the sofa, busy with a computer.Hearing her movement, Hayden immediately got up and walked toward her. "Awake? Thirsty or hungry? Want something to eat first?"Having slept through lunch, Wyneth was hungry, so she nodded. "Sure."After Hayden left to give some instructions,

    'He shifts moods so fast,' Wyneth thought as she stared at her unattended ringing phone.Observing her delay, Hayden asked, "What's going on?"In his mind, a thought flickered, 'She seems reluctant to take the call. Perhaps there's tension with her eldest brother?'"He's calling now; must be about him," Wyneth whispered."About your dad?"They had decided to be together, and Wyneth did not hide anything from him. "Yeah, my dad."Hayden did not utter a single word."I don't like him," Wyneth softly said, staring at her ringing phone. "Answer it for me and say I'm asleep," she whispered to Hayden as she cozied up to him. Without a word, Hayden picked up the phone and conveyed the message before ending the call.After ending the call, a curious Hector asked, "Well? Where is she?"Understanding the situation, Andrew said, "She didn't answer the phone; she's asleep."Despite hearing the words, Hector felt something was off. He sighed, "She really doesn't like me.""Don't worry, D

    "Trouble recognizing faces? What do you mean?" Hector Spencer asked.Andrew sighed. "Dad, he's Wyneth's ex-husband."Hector's eyes widened in surprise. "He is? No wonder I didn't recognize him. I must've barely seen him before.""Is that what's bothering you?" Andrew asked."What else would it be?" Hector replied, still taken aback.Andrew sighed. His dad, Hector, was good at many things and never stayed mad at people. But there was one funny thing about him: he could never remember faces of people outside their family. "You don't mind?" Andrew asked.Smiling, Hector replied, "Mind what? She's told everyone, so she must be ready. I've never been the dad she favored. If I object now, won't she dislike me even more?"Andrew was left speechless by this. He had not expected Hector to have no objections. "Seems like someone doesn't need your approval."Changing the topic, Hector asked, "What about your mom? Is she back?" He had been living alone for many years.Andrew exhaled. "I t

    Everyone rushed to check out Wyneth's Facebook and, sure enough, they saw her admitting to the relationship, along with a freshly taken selfie.At first, Wyneth only wanted to write a post. But after Hayden tasted the joy of going public with their relationship, he suggested taking a wefie for the official announcement. Feeling his excitement, Wyneth agreed.
