“What are their differences?” Alison’s mom asked.

From the moment she was born, she had protected Alison wholeheartedly for fear of suffering some grievances. However, her excessive indulgence had caused her daughter to be too naive.
Alison’s mother saw that Alison was in the wrong, and she decided to teach her a bit of tough love. “Many things are not what you think. So, promise me you’ll stay away from Jade.”
“Why?” Alison could not help but raise her voice, which immediately attracted others‘ attention.
Alison’s mother was helpless and closed her eyes. “We won’t discuss this matter now. Now be good and stop talking back. If you keep behaving like this, don’t blame me for being rude.”
Alison was not happy. But knowing her mother was not joking, she reluctantly shut her mouth.
“The second game is coming up later, and you’re still not going to play?” Calvert asked indifferently when he saw Ash’s triumphant smile.
Ash grunted and blinked. “It’s not that I don’t want to play, it’s just that I’m not good at shooting. I’ve never held guns before.”
“Besides, with you here, I’ll never get a turn.” Ash smiled. “We are a team, and you are powerful. You’ll do the shooting, and I’ll give you moral support.”
Calvert looked away and pursed his lips. “Moral support, huh?
“But if you don’t participate in any match today, they won’t be happy. Even if you’re not good at it, you have to choose one. Or do you want to keep acting like a pathetic damsel in distress?”
Ash looked innocent, “I don’t quite understand what you mean. What do you mean I still want to continue acting? When did I act?”
“You can’t fool anyone forever, my fiancé-”
Calvert’s big hand suddenly wrapped around her waist. With a smirk, he lowered his head slightly. “Femme fatale and original. Those are your real traits.”
Her waist was already sensitive, and Calvert’s movements came suddenly. Ash was slightly stunned, and then the numbness spread from her waist to the top of her head. She clenched her teeth and squeezed out a voice from between her teeth, “Let
go
“Why? You can hold my arm, but I can’t hold your waist?” Calvert asked with a smile.
Ash took a deep breath. It itches”
Calvert heard her let out a faint moan and didn’t plan to let go of his hand. Instead, he said, “Then bear with it. So many people are watching”
“You did this on purpose?”
“I don’t want others to suspect.” Calvert raised his eyebrows. Meanwhile, Ash had no choice but to stare at the man viciously.
Everyone followed the planning host to the second scene, and the shooting competition this time was a double shot. This time, the field staff would release a balloon into the sky, and each balloon would count as one point. The highest score would win 350 thousand dollars in rewards.

Hearing this reward, everyone was not as excited as the previous challenge. After all, it was only 350 thousand dollars, and the last one was a company.
But everyone was everyone, and Ash was Ash. She looked at Jackson excitedly. “Jackson, I know you can do it.”
“Since when did Ash become a money–loving junkie?” Brooke watched from the side and smiled softly. “Well, at least she doesn’t have to worry because Jackson is a good shooter. If he continues to play, we will have all the prizes and leave others mad.”
Brooke approached and spoke, “Don’t you want to tag with Calvert? I know you want to win so badly, but don’t be too hard on yourself, okay? No matter what the result is, I will give you another reward.”
‘It’s different. What you give is different from what I won.” Ash didn’t want to participate. “Isn’t there still a hunting challenge later? Can I participate then?”
Brooke paused and answered, “Why don’t you go with Dad? You two will likely win that challenge.”
Josh smiled gently and took his wife’s hand, “Now that Ash has decided, why don’t we go together? Lachlan, come with us.
Okay.” Lachlan was good at shooting, but not as talented as Jackson.
Because they were a family of three, the host temporarily changed the rules so that three people from their family could compete. The host would take the two highest scores.
osh considered the overall situation and was just slacking off throughout the entire competition. In the end, the best performer in their family was Lachlan, who scored 67 points in three minutes, two points behind first place.
Calvert and Ash stood behind and watched, and Ash clicked her tongue. “This is the downside of big families. Don’t give in when we go hunting later.”
‘Do you want to win? Or is it for the prize?” Calvert looked at her sideways and asked lightly.
She shrugged. “Is there a difference between the two? If I want to win, I will get the prize, and if I want the prize, I must win. I don’t think the difference between the two is too big.
So, do you need further context, or is that enough to answer your question?” Ash’s analysis was organized. Calvert didn’t say a word, obviously convinced.
The two games ended, and it was lunchtime. The most important game of the day was the three and a half hours of hunting in the afternoon.
