Amelia didn’t pick up on James’s hint, smiling faintly. “I’m just repeating rumors I’ve heard.”

*At least you admit it’s just gossip!* James wiped the sweat off his forehead.

Amelia added, “But the wealthy are known for their extravagant tastes, and that Young Master Jenkins is really hard to pin down.”

*You didn’t need to add that last part! Seriously!* James was mentally exhausted, too scared to even look at his young master.

Carl sat calmly, dressed in a black suit and trousers, his lips red and teeth white. His slightly raised eyelids had a cold, dangerous glint to them.

Amelia finally sat up straighter, pouring him another cup of tea. “What I said before was just joking around. There is one thing that can be explained from a medical standpoint. Not allowing people to get too close could mean there’s a history of allergies.”

James was once again shocked! *She h

    Carl also straightened up, a genuine smile forming in his eyes. “Alright.”The way they interacted felt entirely natural, as if they had just become friends.But James couldn’t shake the feeling that the atmosphere was a bit strange—difficult to describe. He’d never seen his young master act this way with anyone before. It was like Carl was consciously emitting some sort of pheromone.If anything, this kind of behavior from the young master was rare, almost unheard of.Just sitting under the locust tree, lightly laughing and adjusting his collar, was enough to leave one defenseless.James couldn’t help but entertain a bold guess: *Could it be that the young master... has taken an interest in the little doctor?*He quickly pushed the thought away, not daring to think about it any further, keeping his head down.Meanwhile, Elder Ye had finished boiling water and called for them to start preparing the

    Edgar didn’t take Amelia to a nearby affiliated hospital, but rather to the Caesar Hotel in the city center. The roads were packed with cars, and traffic was everywhere.Edgar craned his neck, constantly glancing around, worried about wasting time.Amelia sat in the back seat, her voice calm and composed. "Big Brother, don’t rush. Tell me about the patient’s condition first.""I can’t really describe it. He suddenly collapsed, and I didn’t even see him. This patient has been frail since childhood, with a history of anemia. Though she’s adopted by the Cromwell family, and treated like a granddaughter by Old Mr. Cromwell, she looks quite similar to Miss Seventh, the real granddaughter. That’s why Old Mr. Cromwell dotes on her like his own. So, when you go in later, make sure to pay attention," Edgar whispered, glancing at the driver.Amelia casually responded, "But didn’t Miss Seventh get lost when she was you

    Mary immediately nodded, signaling for everyone to try the desserts, but her eyes couldn’t seem to leave the young lady. How rich must someone be to live so extravagantly?They were wealthy in their own right, but there was still a big difference between types of wealth. Take buying handbags for example—while they might buy Hermes bags worth hundreds of thousands, at most they would buy three and rotate them. But this girl—everything she ate, used, didn’t even seem to care about how much it cost.The young lady had already taken a seat. It turns out the woman who had pushed the door open earlier was just her personal caretaker.“Miss, what would you like to eat? I’ll have them prepare it,” said the caretaker.The girl’s voice was soft. “Auntie Ashford, you sit too. You don’t have to always take care of me.”“That’s not possible. My duty is to take care of you, Miss,&rdquo

    Edgar froze. "Little sis, I... I don’t have anything serious, right?"Amelia withdrew her hand and spoke calmly. "Relax, take care of your sleep and diet, go get checked at the hospital. It needs treatment."Edgar had originally asked Amelia to help treat Miss Abby, thinking that he would get a favor from his sister. He never imagined that the one who needed treatment the most would turn out to be himself.Amelia stood there, graceful and beautiful. She had changed into a black hoodie before leaving, her long legs partially visible, her long hair jet black, and her neck slender and pale. Her face was even more chillingly dangerous.Auntie Ashford noticed her immediately, her intuition telling her she didn’t quite like such a look—too sharp and aggressive for beauty.As Amelia approached, the bodyguard said, "This is the Little Divine Doctor. If Miss Abby has any symptoms, you can explain them to her.""Explain?" Auntie Ashf

    Amelia stood up straight, no longer engaging in conversation with Auntie Ashford. She grabbed her black bag, her long legs elegant and cold as she turned to Edgar. "Big brother, let's go. These people don't need treatment."Edgar nearly had a heart attack from the anger. "Little sis, listen to me. Miss Abby is Miss Abby, and the Cromwell family is the Cromwell family. You—""Uncle Monroe," a soft yet noble voice suddenly interrupted.Auntie Ashford immediately changed her attitude, bowing respectfully. "Miss, what brings you here?"The young lady, holding up the hem of her skirt, moved with grace like a fallen angel. Her pale face and delicate features exuded a pitiful elegance. "What do you mean, 'I am I, and the Cromwell family is the Cromwell family'? the Cromwell family raised me. When I am able, I will surely repay them."Auntie Ashford shot a glare at Edgar, irritated. This manager really talked too much!Edgar, however, was all

    "She's quite arrogant!" Molly paced back and forth on the floor, her steps loud. "If she doesn’t want to help, then fine, but she really thinks she's someone important! Pfft!"The young lady furrowed her brows and tightened her grip on Molly's arm. "Auntie Ashford."Molly seemed a bit scared, muttering, "I just think that girl is so ungrateful. In front of so many people, Miss apologized, and she still wouldn't accept it.""The ungrateful one is you!" Edgar couldn’t hold his temper any longer after Amelia left. "From now on, whoever wants to be the manager can be! I’m not doing it anymore, running around here cleaning up your mess! Calling a doctor when there’s nothing wrong, is this a joke?"Hearing this, the young lady’s eyes shifted. "Uncle Monroe, calm down. It’s just a small doctor.""A little doctor? Miss Abby, do you know how important the Little Divine Doctor is to Mr. Cromwell?" By this point, Edgar had

    "I don't care what methods you use, but I don’t want to see her in LA again!"Mary forcefully hung up the phone, her eyes filled with disgust.She hadn’t planned to make things so ugly. After all, even raising a dog for years would create some attachment. But some people were like a stubborn adhesive—no matter how hard you tried to shake them off, they just wouldn’t go!Thinking about this, Mary suddenly seemed to remember something. She took out her phone and sent a message…That night, in ClearWater Alley, Amelia was locking her car when the sky had already turned dark.Normally, she wouldn't have paid attention to the streetlights, which flickered on and off.But as soon as she entered the alley, she noticed several figures trailing behind her.With her black bag slung over her shoulder, her thin lips curled slightly, her eyes already exuding a faint, cold charm.At the second streetlight turn,

    It couldn’t be anyone from her past either, since her current identity was well protected. But no matter who it was, coming to the alley meant they had crossed a line with her.After all, the elderly lived there.The thug trembled in fear, nearly at his wit's end: "I—I don’t know, this lady, we’re just doing some odd jobs. Someone above pays us, and we do the work. We don’t know who sent us here."His words were confused and stumbling.Amelia, however, detected something off in his tone. "So, you’re taking under-the-table jobs?"The thug hesitated, glancing at the man he had knocked over.Amelia immediately raised her foot and stepped on the man’s hand.He immediately curled up in pain, his hand slapping the ground desperately. "Yes, yes! We’re taking under-the-table jobs!"Amelia finally moved her foot, turning her gaze back to the terrified man. "Looks like you’re the lead

    After saying this, Morgan took the lead and went upstairs.The others followed in succession.Susanna, from start to finish, dared not look toward the delivery room. Her face was pale, as if she might collapse at any moment.Downstairs, only the Cromwell siblings remained.Amelia’s eyes settled on Susanna's shoulders, her brow furrowing.The connection ran too deep. Simply relying on exorcism might not be enough.She wasn’t sure if the production team had noticed that the storyline was no longer following the original script.The changes were subtle; the director overseeing the filming hadn’t paid much attention.Besides, for a successful variety show, unexpected twists are what make it more captivating.Amelia glanced at the camera, confirming that the equipment was still functioning properly.She couldn’t promote superstitions on national television.Any supernatural phenomena would surely draw too much attention.Amelia pulled her gaze back and refocused on the far end of the corri

    It happened in an instant!Morgan was fuming with rage. "What did you say?!"Amelia spoke slowly, her tone casual but sharp: "There’s still a camera here. Keep your image intact, Big Star Morgan."Morgan’s face twisted with fury, his features contorting in anger.Killian stepped forward. "Do you even understand basic manners? Is this how a 'study slacker' behaves?"Amelia’s eyes darkened, her voice low: "As a public figure, your job is to set an example and guide your fans with the right values. But what are you doing? Inciting your fans to attack others online?""Maybe you should spend more time polishing your acting skills—those 'eye-searing' performances of yours.""You’re good at pushing others down, but when it comes to being on screen, your acting is just awful.""Your fans might blindly praise you, but do you believe it?"Amelia’s words were calm, almost as if she was just stating facts. "You're so plain-looking, yet you got the lead role as soon as you debuted. Must have some

    To maintain the authenticity of the show, the accompanying PDs withdrew from the scene.There were cameras in every corner of the hospital, so they couldn’t escape observation.The hospital wasn’t big—just two floors—but the corridors were deep and dark.With so many people around earlier, it hadn’t felt eerie. But now that the PDs were gone, the cold, abandoned air rushed in, making the atmosphere tense.It was clear that, apart from Amelia, the other girls were nervous.Especially Susanna, who instinctively touched her stomach as she looked toward the delivery room.Viewers at home were confused:"Why is LuLu touching her stomach?"Suddenly, the sign above the delivery room door tilted and fell with a loud crash.The noise shocked everyone!Morgan, too, jolted, but he also realized this was his chance to act."This hospital looks old, so things may fall off the walls. Everyone be careful; we don’t need to go there," he said, walking ahead with apparent concern. "Where there are ligh

    Sebastian’s sudden comment left the director and the production team completely stunned.Not to mention the live viewers:"What does that mean???""I’m dying laughing! Kina, what are you doing?"Other guests also turned to look in their direction.Just when everyone thought his words were out of character for him, Amelia actually found it fitting. This was exactly the kind of Cromwell the sixth her grandfather always described."Brother, we can check the hint now," Amelia said, her tone action-oriented. She had a straightforward approach: finish the recording quickly, resolve the tension, and move on.The female star beside her would not survive the night if things continued this way.Of course, Amelia had no intention of acknowledging any familial ties in front of the public. She’d discuss it with Sixth Brother later, after everything was settled.To her surprise, Sebastian furrowed his brow. "You call me 'bro' so naturally. I already have a little sister, so change your way of addre

    He absolutely could NOT lose face!The more someone craves screen time, the deeper their thoughts run.Compared to him, Morgan and Killian’s performances were relatively bland.“Are you all sure about your team members?”The director’s voice rang out again.This time, in addition to the celebrity guests, all five passersby answered in unison, “Yes.”As the words fell, the curtains blocking the passersby were drawn away.Amelia lifted her eyelids, revealing her beautiful face, but her expression was always casual and nonchalant.She could hear the celebrities’ discussions.And she had already seen the passersby.She had entered because she felt the overwhelming resentment swirling overhead.If the resentment continued to fester, it would turn into a massive disaster.She hadn’t expected that there would be tasks involved as well.When the passersby from number 1 to 5 appeared on camera, not only did the audience feel stunned, but even the celebrities on set paused.Because Amelia’s app

    The third passerby was a middle-aged man with glasses, looking quite ordinary in terms of appearance and height, but his experience stood out. According to the profile, he was a surgeon.[Right now, 2nd and 3rd passersby are the best choices!]Next, the profile of the fourth passerby appeared—Carrie, majoring in media.But the key part was the extra line: “If Kina picks me, I can help you win!”Her bold statement immediately drew the attention of Sebastian.Killian commented with subtle sarcasm, "Sebastian’s fans are really enthusiastic. Most people can’t even make it to the show’s recording."With these words, everyone started to feel like the production team was favoring Sebastian.The trolls in the chat started to rise:"An idol with no academic qualifications should stay away from variety shows. It's already unfair, but soon enough, they’ll expose their low IQ. That’s going to be fun!"The tension was quickly building.Then the fifth passerby’s profile popped up, and it was like t

    "Mutual selection of passerby! It’s finally here!"The passersby selected for the show were randomly chosen by the system, but the production team would still screen them carefully.After all, Ultimate Survival had complex storylines for each location, often based on real events but modified for the show. Accurately recreating these stories was difficult and required some specialized knowledge.This time, the filming location was the abandoned children’s hospital.The team would definitely need medical professionals in the mix.The live chat exploded with guesses about who the passersby would be."Teachers, there are five passersby in front of you. Only through mutual selection can you pair up successfully. On the big screen, you’ll see their profiles. Two of them are medical professionals, while the other three have different specialties. You can choose based on your experience and preferences."The director’s voice echoed as the guests’ expressions varied.Especially for Morgan, who

    In the show, each celebrity was assigned a different position.They all wore blindfolds, and only upon arriving at the location would they remove them one by one.The selected passersby, however, were brought in by the staff and had the chance to see the full view of the venue.Carrie stood before the scene, her eyes shaking wildly.As Mia had said, the location for this episode was indeed an abandoned children’s hospital!Although she was from New York, she had never known about such a hospital in the nearby suburbs!The hospital looked worn down, suggesting it had been abandoned for years, with grass growing all around the outside.The show was filmed in real locations, and the production team had spent a lot of money to recreate the layout from the time.But the exterior hadn’t been renovated, so it looked especially aged.Among the celebrity guests, actress Vivienne was the first to arrive. She took off her blindfold and joked, "Is the production team trying to get new guests to q

    With a soft click, Amelia took off her helmet and noticed the cameras overhead. She raised an eyebrow.Elijah hadn’t mentioned that there was a filming crew nearby.He was still excited on the other side of the wall.Amelia, considering whether to ask the staff for more information, noticed the camera’s focus.In the shot, the director and the viewers could see the girl with long legs leaning on her motorcycle, one hand on the handlebar, the other typing a message.It seemed she hadn’t received a reply.Her slender, graceful fingers tapped the handlebar in slow rhythm, and her cool demeanor was simply mesmerizing.The camera panned over, and it was impossible to look away.Her face was flawless, ethereal yet not overly seductive, with deep eyes and a beauty mark just below her eye.When she looked up, the comments exploded."One minute, I need to know everything about this girl!""Which agency is this new girl from? I’ve never seen her before!""I just searched her up, and nothing cam
