Chapter 30
Jade aggressively tears into the smuggled snacks, devouring them in the shadows of the dressing room. Let those idiots starve, she thinks bitterly. She refuses to suffer for no reason. But her mind is racing-she has to devise a foolproof plan to break Tara.
Meanwhile, miles away in a sprawling, ultra-luxury mansion, Danny is seated at his massive mahogany desk, reviewing corporate contracts. On his secondary monitor, the live feed of The Elite Circle is playing in high definition.
Ever since Tara left for the shoot, a strange, suffocating emptiness has settled over his house. He finds himself constantly checking the broadcast just to see her face. Unsurprisingly, she has completely dominated the narrative, handling every crisis with breathtaking competence.
As the camera closes in on a stunning shot of Tara tending the fire, her features illuminated by the golden flames, Danny smirks. He opens the platform’s donation tab and casually drops twenty ‘Grand Trophies’-the most expensive digital gift available.
The screen instantly explodes with blinding luxury animations.
The chat goes absolutely feral:
“Holy crap! A billionaire whale just entered the chat!”
“Who is this guy? Definitely one of Jade’s rich stalkers.”
“Are you blind? The gifts triggered the exact second the camera zoomed in on Tara!”
Danny watches the frantic speculation roll across the screen. A dark, predatory smile curves his lips as his long fingers dance across the keyboard, unleashing another massive wave of Grand Trophies, drowning the chat in digital gold.
In the production van, the technical crew is panicking. “Look up this ID right now!” the assistant director shouts. “This ‘D.G.’ account just tipped over hundreds of thousands of dollars in three
minutes!”
Out in the yard, Tara is completely oblivious to the digital earthquake she just caused, her focus solely on keeping the fire alive.
“She looks so gorgeous just breathing!”
“The whale is back! He is 100% throwing cash at Tara!”
“Lmao look at Jade in the background, she looks livid.”
Jade is indeed staring daggers at the camera crew’s monitor. She watches the explosive tipping history of the mysterious “D.G.” account, perfectly syncing with every single shot of Tara.
Who the hell is this guy? And why is he throwing millions at that worthless bitch? Jade seethes internally. A sudden, sickening wave of insecurity hits her as she thinks of Evan. Ever since Tara humiliated them and shattered the engagement, Evan has been distant, his gaze lingering on Tara entirely too often. Jade bites her lip hard, tasting iron. She will not allow this. Once this nightmare of a show is over, she will seduce Evan back into total submission. Whatever Tara wants, Jade will steal and destroy.

Chapter 30
The following morning, the director announces the daily challenge. The cast must travel to the local, grime-covered fish market and sell the morning’s raw catch. The team with the highest sales will earn a premium seafood feast for dinner.
“Selling fish?” Jade crinkles her nose in genuine disgust, whispering, “That is so incredibly smelly…”
But the moment the red recording light blinks on, her face snaps into a radiant, innocent smile. “Oh wow, I’m so excited! I’ve never experienced the hustle of a real market before!”
The chat immediately rips her to shreds:
