The Scorned Heiress: No More Mercy novel Chapter 462

Jade cannot beat her at the games. She cannot beat her at the survival tasks. She definitely cannot rival Tara's professional pharmacological expertise. Tara's sheer competence has earned her team luxury room upgrades, gourmet meals, and effortless sleep. Even Julianna, who is competing entirely solo, has proven shockingly capable, earning her own upgrades to her living conditions and food.

The most miserable group by far is Jade's. Not only are they constantly at each other's throats, but they fail nearly every mission. Jade burns with a toxic mix of panic and indignation. She cannot fathom why she keeps losing to Tara at every turn. Thank God Julianna is here. As Danny's fiancée, her very presence gives Jade the perfect excuse to mock that wretched woman. Otherwise, Jade is sure she would suffocate from the sheer frustration of it all.

"Nikolai, Evan, we have to win at least once," Jade pleads, her voice tinged with desperation.

The show wraps up in less than two days. The network has the ratings, the viral moments are trending, and the show is a certified smash hit. Yet, Jade hasn't achieved a single thing she came here for. She desperately needs the two men on her team to step up and carry her to a victory.

Evan lets out a harsh, mocking laugh. "Easy for you to say. If you're so incredible, why don't you do it?" He glares at her.

Jade does nothing but run her mouth. When it comes down to the wire, she is a massive liability. A hundred seasoned experts couldn't drag her dead weight across a finish line. She possesses a truly unique talent—effortlessly dragging down the collective IQ and capability of everyone around her without lifting a finger.
