Elric commented, "Indeed, this brother's love runs deep. I even reminded him in the kitchen earlier, but he didn't listen."Wendy couldn't help but feel a bit gleeful, though she sighed and said, "Poor Alex, really."In the live chat, Alex's fans were extremely worried about him. Some even started to blame Olivia, and a few directed their anger at Lindsay for not helping Alex when he asked for medicine. However, Lindsay's fans quickly defended her, pointing out that she didn't owe Alex anything and that he was responsible for his own actions. After all, he knew he had a sensitive stomach yet still ate the food to please his sister.As the livestream ended, many viewers left comments expressing concern for Alex's health.At the Harper family home, Richard was away on a business trip, but Grace and the other four brothers were watching the livestream. Grace was worried about Alex's condition. "His stomach has always been sensitive. Now he's vomiting and having diarrhea in that remote v
Grace's face darkened upon hearing her son's words. "So, what should we do? Via has been pampered since she was little. She worked so hard to learn how to do chores and cook just to be on this show. It's not easy for her." After thinking for a moment, she suggested, "Why don't we let Alex and Via quit the show? That way, they won't have to suffer anymore, and they can avoid further conflict with Lindsay."Oliver immediately rejected the idea. "No, we can't do that. If they were to quit now, it would damage their reputation. Plus, it would look like they're giving in to Lindsay." He added, "Via has always wanted to make a name for herself in the entertainment industry. If we make her give up now, she'll be heartbroken."Grace asked, "Then what should we do?"Oliver's eyes lit up with an idea. "Mom, why don't you call Lindsay and ask her to quit instead?"Grace hesitated. "You mean, ask her to come back?"Oliver nodded. "Yes, she was so concerned about your health before. Just tell her
Grace didn’t expect Lindsay to see through their intentions so clearly. However, she didn’t directly admit it."I watched the livestream. Via performed very well and was excellent. Oliver said if you come back, he'd get you some good offers. Brandon mentioned you could have a second lead role in his new show."She sounded like they were doing her a great favor.Lindsay scoffed, "Well, I really appreciate that. I wouldn't dare to take Oliver's so-called offers. He's probably laid traps for me to fall into. I've been burned before, and I won't be fooled again. And in Brandon's new show, the first lead is Olivia, right? So, you still want me to make her shine by giving me the supporting role?”Grace had her phone on speaker as well.Brandon, who had a fiery temper, couldn't hold back when he heard Lindsay's sarcasm. He shouted, "Lindsay, don't be ungrateful. If you weren’t our biological sister, we wouldn't bother with you at all. What's wrong with supporting Olivia? Why do you always ha
Hearing the knock on the door, Wendy got up to answer it. When she opened it, she found Justin standing at the entrance."Mr. Ford, is there something you need?" Wendy asked.Justin glanced inside the room. "I'm here to see Lindsay."Lindsay walked over. "What do you want?""Alex can't stop vomiting and feels terrible. He wants to see you.”Lindsay raised an eyebrow. "He's not dying with some last words to share, so why should I go see him?"Justin looked at her in disbelief. "How can you say that?"Lindsay's tone remained cold. "What else should I say? I'm not interested in seeing him. That's it."She reached out to close the door, but Justin quickly pushed it back open. "Lindsay, regardless of the issues between you two, now is not the time to be stubborn. Alex said you know how to get the right herbs. He's really suffering. Please, help him."Lindsay scoffed. "It's already dark. You expect me to go up the mountain to find herbs now? Even if I could see in the dark, it's dangerous. I
But now, she truly seemed to have severed all ties with him and her siblings. How did it come to this?Justin observed Alex's disappointment and inability to accept the situation, feeling a pang of discomfort himself. He couldn't help but wonder if Lindsay would help him if he were the one suffering and needed herbs for medicine. He used to be confident she wouldn't abandon him, but now he wasn't so sure.As Alex began to feel sick again and rushed out to vomit, Justin suggested, "Let me ask the crew to take you to the village clinic."At that moment, Olivia walked in with a cup of hot water. "Yes, brother, let’s go to the clinic.”She knew Justin had asked Lindsay for help with gathering herbs. Though she didn't openly oppose it, fearing it would seem like she didn't want her brother to get better, she secretly hoped Lindsay wouldn't help. And indeed, Lindsay stayed indifferent, ignoring Alex's suffering.This realization brought a mix of relief and bitterness. If Lindsay didn't care
The next day, Lindsay made oatmeal and pancakes for breakfast.In the other group, Olivia accidentally overslept and didn’t make breakfast. They planned to eat at the place where they were helping out. Alex, after receiving IV fluids the night before, was no longer experiencing vomiting and diarrhea but looked pale and exhausted. Justin suggested he stay at the courtyard to rest.Alex got up to see the others off and saw Lindsay's group enjoying breakfast. Elric, Leslie, and Wendy were eating with satisfaction. He didn’t have much of an appetite, but the smell of the oatmeal and pancakes made him hungry. However, Lindsay didn't even glance his way, let alone invite him to join them. This made him feel even worse. He suddenly realized that with Olivia and the others having breakfast at a villager’s house, he would be left without food. This thought left him feeling dejected, much to the distress of his fans watching the live stream.Lindsay glanced at Alex, thinking he deserved his
In the past, Sharon would have despised this kind of environment and food. Now, she was just relieved to have something normal to eat after dealing with Olivia's cooking. She had a thought and, looking at Olivia, deliberately spoke up for the cameras.“We're out here, but I wonder what Mr. Harper is eating back in the courtyard. Should we ask our host to cook another plate of spaghetti and deliver it to him?”Olivia suddenly realized her mistake. She had completely forgotten to prepare breakfast for her brother. At home, the servants took care of everything, and after yesterday’s exhaustion, she had overslept this morning. She had been focused on how to perform well today and had overlooked her brother entirely. Internally cursing Sharon for bringing it up, she responded with a knowing look.“My brother always skips breakfast the day after he’s been vomiting. If he eats, it will only make him more nauseous. Giving him spaghetti would just make him feel worse. By lunchtime, I’ll ask o
Lindsay and her team went to a local farm to help with traditional olive oil pressing. Many viewers in the livestream had never seen this method of pressing oil before.Lindsay and Wendy helped steam the olive pulp, while Leslie and Elric worked on preparing the mats. The two then took turns operating the large lever to press the oil, which was a bit like ringing a giant bell. Both the stars and the viewers found the process fascinating.The farm owner, Jason Stone, chatted with the group as they worked. Leslie asked, "Is olive oil selling well for you?"Jason smiled and said, "It's alright, we make enough to get by when we take it to the town market." He then asked, "Have you all tried olive oil before? Do you know its benefits?"Leslie, Wendy, and Elric shook their heads. "We haven't tried it and don't really know much about it."Lindsay, however, said, "Olive oil has a unique, pure flavor. It's highly nutritious and often called the 'liquid gold of the Mediterranean.'"She went on
