‘Does this woman think that I’m a fool?’ Joyce quickened her pace, wanting to pretend as if she did not hear Mikayla’s question.
Unexpectedly, Mikayla caught up to her. Seeing that Joyce did not say anything, Mikayla’s eyes moved.
She seemed a little cautious. “Ms. Joyce, are you upset? I’m sorry… I didn’t know that you guys haven’t made it public…” Joyce took a deep breath.
‘This little two-faced b*tch shouldn’t have gotten the most promising actress award.
She should’ve gotten the best director award instead! 2 Mikayla could really direct and act out a whole one-man show by herself.
The grass and trees in the forest were wild and tall, with huge canopies of leaves shading the sky.
Occasionally, some sunlight sprinkled through the leaves. It was vibrant and soothing.
The path was very rugged, so it took a lot of effort to walk through.
They had to reach the scheduled checkpoint before dark, where they would be given some supplies.
Otherwise, they would have to sleep on the rocks.
Thus, Joyce was not in the mood to play along with Mikayla at this time. However, Mikayla was still relentlessly trying to add frills to the situation.
“Ms. Joyce, I just thought that you and Nathaniel have gone through so many hardships together, so you must have some feelings for each other.
I don’t mean anything else…” Mikayla’s cautious look was annoying Joyce.
Joyce stopped a dozen meters away on the path that was covered up by trees and looked back at Mikayla.
Mikayla did not expect Joyce to suddenly stop, so she subconsciously stumbled a step back and stood firm.
She waited for Joyce’s response. Joyce stared straight at Mikayla with cold and indifferent eyes.
“Ms. Mikayla, I’m two years younger than you, so you don’t have to be so polite. I told you that you can just call me Joyce.”
‘Why the hell is she calling me Ms. Joyce? Am I her teacher?!’ Joyce thought. Mikayla’s face turned pale. She could finally see Joyce’s displeasure and subconsciously panicked.
“Joyce… I-I’m sorry…” “Also, we’re on an adventure, not an emotional variety show, so I don’t need to share my private matters and personal feelings with you, right? The most important thing now is to pass the checkpoint, don’t you think?” Mikayla had to admit that Joyce had a different aura compared with ordinary actresses.
Joyce standing there with a clear and cold smile could already make others feel the pressure. Joyce’s gaze was crystal clear as if she could see through everything with a glance.
The darkness in Mikayla’s heart instantly had nowhere to hide, The audience waiting to see some drama on the live stream instantly commented on this scene.
(Joyce’s so cool and frank, cutting straight to the point! Awesome!) (Mikayla’s a little too nosy.
Why would she ask such a personal question if she’s not even close to Joyce?] [Joyce is such a straightforward character! I can tell that she’s been tolerating Mikayla the whole way and finally can’t help it anymore…
Hahahaha …] [Although I am indeed curious about Mikayla’s question, what Joyce said is also irrefutable!] (Mikayla didn’t do it intentionally. She’s just trying to bond. Joyce’s just too sensitive…) (No offense, but I think Mikayla’s a bit of a two-faced b*tch, especially in front of Joyce…)
The two ladies did not know about the live comments.
Mikayla felt humiliated by Joyce’s words. Mikayla realized that she had overstepped her bounds and felt a little guilty. Her face paled. In front of the camera, Mikayla’s nervousness was very obvious. She looked flustered.
It turned out that Joyce was not a rich and capricious princess, much less an easy-going lady. Mikayla could even imagine how Joyce’s fans would expose her thoughts and criticize her.
However, Joyce smiled faintly and looked at the cameraman. Her voice was flat and calm.
“Cut this part out later.” It was not a tone of negotiation, nor a strong command.
Joyce only spoke directly and did not allow others to refuse. After that, she turned around and continued walking. The cameraman almost dropped his camera.
He wanted to say, ‘I can cut it out… But I can’t do anything about the live stream now…’ Mikayla finally kept quiet and did not dare to say anything as she followed Joyce’s pace.
That cave was not on the map that Joyce saw earlier.
Since it was not on the map, there must be something fishy about it. Joyce used a stick to poke at the weeds covering the cave entrance. Mikayla also had the good sense to go forward and help.
The inside of the cave was dark, and the ground was flooded with water. It was eerie and dreary.
Even the smell was hard to bear.
Joyce took a deep breath and cautiously walked in with a flashlight, Mikayla was watching from the outside, She pursed her lips and spoke hesitantly.
“Joyce, this cave doesn’t have any cameras, so I don’t think it’s the place we’re looking for.
Let’s not waste our date’s efforts!” Her filming experience told her that places without cameras must not be important Joyce walked ahead and said in a flat voice. “Then you can wait outside.”
She did not force it. Joyce’s cameraman had already gone inside with her, leaving Mikayla with her cameraman outside. Mikayla frowned.
Although she was extremely reluctant, she still gritted her teeth and chose to follow Joyce inside the cave.
Otherwise, if a billionaire heiress like Joyce could go into this dark cave and Mikayla waited outside like a wimp, she would just be criticized by netizens.
Mikayla was planning to catch up to Joyce when she suddenly screamed.
“Ah…” Joyce looked back when she heard the scream. Mikayla looked like she had twisted her ankle.
She was lying on the ground and broke out in painful cold sweat.
She even shed tears… Seeing this, Joyce hurried back. “What happened?” Mikayla forced a smile, but her pale face could not conceal her pain. “I twisted my ankle.
I’m really sorry for slowing you down.” Joyce frowned. “Should I contact the staff to send you back first?” “No… I’m not going back. I can still hold on.” Mikayla gritted her teeth.
Although the pain was killing her, if she just left like this, she would lose her reputation. Then, the opportunity that she had lates fought for would be all for nothing.
Before Mikayla came, she thought that Joyce’s frank and cold character would be refreshing to the audience for a while.
However, what the viewers really wanted was a person with high emotional intelligence.
If Mikayla could gain a firm foothold and become a regular participant on this show, she would be able to raise her status in showbiz. Thus, Mikayla would not just leave like that.
Since this was her own choice, Joyce did not insist on anything. Joyce looked around and found a thicker branch from the cave entrance. “Here, make do with this first.”
Mikayla took it over and thanked her, then braced herself to stand up. Although there was no longer the pain of the moment just now, her mobility was nates still affected. Joyce stood up next to Mikayla, who winced in pain when she took a step.
Her legs went weak, and she was about to fall. Mikayla subconsciously tugged on Joyce’s warm.
Joyce also held Mikayla and intended to wait for her to stand firm before letting go.
However, Mikayla misunderstood that Joyce wanted to take care of her, so she did not let go and limped inside with Joyce supporting her. She looked like she was crippled.
Joyce was speechless and pursed her lips. She could not push Mikayla away, so she could only let Mikayla hold her. ‘I must change teammates!’ There was a flurry of comments on the live stream.
