At that time, he was here to film another show. In the end, the show never got made. But that was when he found out this poor, far–off place even existed.

That’s why he chose this town.

Scarlett looked calm as usual.

For her, it wasn’t a big deal.

You live off the land when you have to.

There are mountains and a river here, so there’s no need to worry about food or water.

And since it was summer, you could just sleep anywhere.

Selina, Nelson, and Adam didn’t think it was a big deal either.

They decided to stick close to Scarlett and follow her lead.

Hazel didn’t realize how serious it was. She thought that if they gave a few small helps to these poor townsfolk, staying in their homes for a week shouldn’t be a problem.

Only Brianna felt frustrated. This week, they didn’t even get 200 dollars for living expenses!

She swore that after this week’s show, she would never come back as a guest again.

If she did, she’d be a fool.

[The director is really harsh. How is this different from a wild survival show?]

This is kind of interesting.]

[But isn’t this too much? What if they can’t find work or food? Won’t they go hungry for a few days?]

[What’s there to be afraid of? A few days of hunger won’t kill anyone. And there are so many mountains around–wild fruits grow on them.]

Looks like Scarlett won’t have any trouble. She’s strong, and with mountains all around, there’s definitely enough food. She might even live pretty well.]

[The others might have a rough time. But they can check out the town first. Maybe there’s still a chance Last week’s town, the committee was pretty nice. They even gave them jobs and places to stay l

After Michael finished talking, he let the eight guests roam freely.

This week’s rules were more open. They could form teams however they wanted

Selina immediately grabbed Scarlett’s arm. “Scarlett, I’ll stick with you?”

Nelson and Adam joined in. “Scarlett, can we follow you, too?”

Scarlett smiled. “Sure, no problem. Just stay with me.”

The other four guests left were Zayden, Brianna, Hazel, and Simon.

Brianna grabbed Zayden’s arm. They were clearly going to be on the same team.

As for the other two, Brianna hesitated. She wasn’t sure if she wanted to team up with them.

She thought Hazel and Simon couldn’t carry much or really do anything.

The rules this week had changed. There was no living allowance. If they weren’t capable, adding two more, might just be a burden.

Hazel hesitated too and glanced at Scarlett first. She decided to go over and apologize to Scarlett.

The livestream was on, and lots of viewers were watching. It was the perfect chance to explain why she had joined Gemma in speaking badly about Scarlett.

And with all the viewers watching, she figured Scarlett wouldn’t actually hit her.

If Scarlett really did dare to hit her, she could call the police!

Assault can get you detained and leave a record.

Last time at the hospital, Scarlett slapped her and Raymond twice, and it hurt so much that Hazel forgot to call the police.

Hazel thought for a moment and started walking toward Scarlett.

Her face was pale, and her eyes were a little red.

She looked wronged and innocent at the same time.

“Scarlett, I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have said those things. I–I didn’t mean to, I was just upset. You lived with our family for five years, Mom and I have treated you well, but… but you

but you still…”

Before she could finish, Scarlett suddenly spoke, “Hazel.”

Hazel froze. “W–What is it?”

A single tear still clung to the corner of her eye. It made her look pitiful.

Scarlett stared at her face. “Didn’t I tell you before? If you come bother me again, or try to put on a show, don’t blame me for not being nice. I even tagged you on Twitter and posted a meme at youl

The meme said, “Brat, take my punch.”

Before Hazel could even react, Scarlett moved like lightning, throwing a punch straight at her face.

But when the fist was still about two inches from Hazel’s face, it suddenly stopped.

didn’t

The punch didn’t actually hit her.

But Hazel suddenly clutched her cheek and started screaming.

“Ah! It hurts! My face hurts so much!”

Everyone around froze.

Scarlett’s punch hadn’t even touched Hazel’s face.

So why was Hazel screaming?

From the moment Hazel went over to Scarlett, the HD cameras had been focused on them.

The livestream viewers saw everything clearly.

They could see that Scarlett’s punch didn’t hit Hazel at all.

??? What’s wrong with Hazel?]

Lol, is she so used to playing fake sweet that she just does it on reflex? That punch didn’t even hit her face, and she’s screaming like that. Did she scream too early, thinking Scarlett would actually hit her? But Scarlett didn’t even throw the punch all the way. Scarlett knows exactly what kind of person Hazel is. She was trying to twist the story and dump the blame on Scarlett for the whole “calling her crazy” thing.]

Ugh, she’s so fake. I can’t believe I used to like her.]

Some of Hazel’s die–hard fans jumped in to defend her.

Hazel probably thought Scarlett’s punch was going to hit her. It’s just a normal reflex.]
