Chapter 184 

Joseph frowned deeply. “What kind of question is that? Selina, le serious! Don’t bring personal emotions into the show,” 

and 

Selina let out a dramatic whistle and shook her head in mock exasperation. “This is exactly why dealing with the Harvey family is such a headache. I was just following the show’s rules with a simple question. But your reaction? Over the boring. 

The others around them began to sense that Joseph’s reaction was extreme. Some wondered, ‘Is the relationship between Joseph and Selina so strained that he assumes she’s always setting a trap for him?‘ 

One wrote: [Mr. Harvey’s right. What kind of question was that? Is Selina trying to create drama between his future wife and Ashley?] 

Another person commented: [After how Selina treated Ashley earlier, I just see her as the villain. No surprise she’d target Mr. Harvey too 

Someone remarked: [Honestly, Joseph was overreacting. It was such a basic question. Anyone with common sense could answer that.] 

Another person wrote: [Where there’s smoke, there’s fire.] 

Joseph clenched his fists, convinced that Selina was trying to bait him or imply something more. However, the way everyone was stating made him realize he might appear paranoid. He knew he needed to respond calmly. Taking a deep breath, he said One is my wife, and the other is my sister. They’re both my family and both important.” 

“I’m done asking. Selina shrugged, not pushing any further as she leaned back on the couch. 

And just like that, the tension dissipated, leaving the audience without the explosive drama they had anticipated. It seemed Joseph had simply overreacted, perhaps seeing Selina as nothing more than a villain in his mind. 

As the evening segment concluded, the guests chatted casually before preparing for dinner. On their first day, Lance and Max had taken charge of the cooking to host everyone. From the second day onward, the guests would team up and earn their ingredients by completing tasks. The day wound down as they settled in for dinner. 

After the meal, Lydia pulled Selina aside and whispered, “Selina, are you tired? How about we take a walk? There’s something I didn’t get a chance to say earlier with everyone around.”

“Sure, Selina agreed. They headed out to the fields surrounding Cherry Blossom Manor. Away from the cameras, the and quiet were a welcome change from the chaos of the day. The fresh air, combined with the sounds of insects and birds, made the atmosphere serene. 

Lydia looped her arm around Selina’s shoulder. “Selina, about that question you asked Joseph… was there something more. 

to it? 

“Why would you think that? It was just a random question, Selina replied. 

“Come on, Selina. Think about it. Something’s not right with the Harvey family. Even if Ashley is their daughter, they lost you for 21 years. Now that you’re back, instead of making amends, they tiptoe around Ashley as if they’re afraid treating you well might upset her. It’s like they have this unhealthy obsession with her,” Lydia said with conviction. She knew Selina had no lingering feelings for the Harvey family, but if that hadn’t been the case, Lydia wouldn’t have brought it up, fearing it might be too painful for Selina 

“They definitely aren’t normal, Selina agreed. Since severing tied with il. – 19-

everything could return to its neat state in their perfect world. Yet, they still dared to act like victims, standing on some moral high ground while blaming her for everything. The irony was almost too much. They only came back to her after she had outmaneuvered them, appearing utterly defeated and embarrassed. 

Sometimes, Selina wondered if she should go to a hospital and get a genetic test, just to make sure she wasn’t carrying any of the Harvey family’s crazy DNA. The thought alone made her want to scream. 

As they continued walking, Selina and Lydia suddenly heard voices nearby. It was Ashley’s voice, along with another person’s. Lydia’s face lit up with mischief as she grabbed Selina’s arm and whispered, “Selina, we’ve got something interesting to watch.” Then, she thought, “Who’s Ashley with on Her first day here? Could it be Joseph? But the voice doesn’t sound like his… 

Meanwhile, under the maple tree stood Ashley, her delicate features softly illuminated by the dim glow of the streetlamp. “It’s okay, Garrett,” she said, her voice tinged with sadness. “I know Selina hates me. I’m used to it. Thank you for trying to help us patch things up, but the truth is… I don’t think Selina and I will ever be able to fix our relationship.” 

“Selin just too much, bullying you like that over and over. Even if there’s some history between you two, she shouldn’t be putting you on the spot like that on a live variety show. Garrett was seething. From the moment he first saw Ashley, he liked her. His anger flared again when he saw Selina drag Ashley into the drama, accusing her of being fake. He couldn’t imagine how much it must have hurt a young girl still new to the world. 

He was convinced Selina only dared to act this way because she was more popular at the moment, with more fans backing her up. If Ashley were the top–tier star, Selina wouldn’t have dared to cross her, knowing Ashley’s fans would tear her apart. 

“It’s okay, Garrett. Maybe I unknowingly did something in the past to hurt Selina, and that’s why she holds such a grudge. against me. If that’s the case, then it’s my fault, and I deserve all of this Ashley sighed.
