Chapter 160
Kane instinctively led Winnie forward, the cameraman in hot pursuit.
The pair had barely crossed the threshold when the camera lens caught them off guard. A flicker of panic crossed their faces, and they instinctively shielded themselves, looking for an
escape.
“Whoa, what’s with the camera shyness?”
“I get it. Some folks just hate the spotlight. The type to dodge those street interviews like they’re dodging bullets.”
“Yeah, I’m one of those people. Don’t ask. Socially awkward club, right here.”
“Pretty normal reaction, I’d say.”
The audience was understanding, and Kane didn’t want to pressure them, but the show must go on. He cleared his throat and approached.
“Hello, we’re shooting a show and could use a couple like you for a challenge. Would you be up
for it?”
To Kane’s surprise, the pair who had been all cuddled up split apart like they’d been zapped. The man, clearly annoyed, flatly denied, “No can do. Find someone else.”
He was ready to bolt, but Kane, spotting a rare opportunity, moved to try again. That was when Winnie piped up, cutting him off, “Don’t bother. They won’t agree.”
Her clear blue eyes swept over the two with a hint of insight, “After all, they’re not really a
couple.”
Kane was still processing the clue when panic visibly washed over the pair at Winnie’s words. The man, now visibly flustered, snapped, “Enough already. Stop filming.”
With that, he pushed past the woman beside him and they hurried away, not even bothering with the B&B they’d come to.
The audience caught the guilty vibe too.
“They’re just a couple, right? Why the guilty getaway? It’s not like Kane and Winnie are some kind of boogeymen.”
“People have the right to decline. The crew can’t force them on camera.”
“Is it just me, or did that couple seem super sketchy?”
“Am I the only one who thinks they looked like deer in headlights?”
“Hold your wild guesses, people. That’s a bold assumption.”
“Whoa, could it be what I’m thinking?”

Chapter 160
“I gotta admit, this is juicy.
“What are y’all on about? They looked like a totally normal couple. ”
“Normal couple my foot. That man’s my husband and his ‘work trip‘ excuse was a lie.
The chat froze for a moment before exploding with shock emojis.
“This is insane. Was cheating caught live?”
“Reminds me of that street photographer who accidentally caught a scandal a while back.”
“No wonder they were acting shady. Sneaking around behind his wife’s back, huh?
“Did Winnie know all along when she said they weren’t a couple?”
“Let’s not overhype Winnie. It’s not like she’s got some kind of sixth sense.
“You’d be wrong to doubt. Winnie’s got a knack for the mysterious.
“She’s from the Supernatural Department, after all.”
“Lucky me, but she’s not even enrolled yet. How could she be that good? I don’t buy it.
“Is it really that hard to acknowledge her skills?”
The chat was ablaze with speculation as Kane, though suspecting the truth, sought confirmation from Winnie.
“You said they’re not a couple. You notice something?”
Winnie didn’t beat around the bush, “The guy’s aura shows he’s hitched. The girl? Not a ring in sight.”
A married man and a single woman, so what else needed to be said? Even the cameraman was taken aback. Talk about a twist.
Almost immediately, internet detectives started matching faces to social media profiles. sharing the man’s wedding pictures and his wife’s photos with her best friend.
The cheating scandal was undeniable.
Kane, oblivious to the online detective work, trusted Winnie’s insight. After witnessing her previous feats, his faith in her was solid.
Capturing a cheater on a simple show task left Kane unsure whether to laugh or cringe. He coughed awkwardly, redirecting the focus, “Let’s try the next couple.”
Winnie nodded, and with lunchtime looming, they headed to the B&B’s dining area.
While they moved on from the incident, the live audience buzzed with reactions.
“Classic Kane, catching a cheating couple on the first try.”
“Winnie has s got the eye for truth.”
