Chapter 03 The Stars Arrive
Finished
All the celebrity guests had taken the stage–except Easton. He was meant to be the final surprise; the grand finale.
Just when the audience thought the reveal segment was over, Taylor gave a mysterious smile to the camera. He waved his hand and said, “Not done yet. One more friend still hasn’t shown up!
The comments exploded with question marks.
“There’s more?”
“Who could be so big that they’re saving them for last?”
“If it’s not a megastar, this mystery act is just clickbait.”
“Unless it’s Easton, I won’t be impressed.”
“No way it’s Easton–he barely does variety shows.”
“Let’s be realistic. Maybe it’s that rumored film queen?”
“Don’t tease us like this. I’m dying to know. Who is it?”
“Who the heck needs this much build–up? Don’t tell me it’s some producer’s pet project.”
Easton saw Taylor waving him over. He gave a faint smirk and walked over slowly, unhurried.
He still had on his casual denim jacket, a pair of stylish black sunglasses perched on his nose. Just like that, Easton swaggered into frame.
He pulled down his sunglasses slightly to reveal his bright, dark eyes, his brows arching just a little. Then, with a cool flair, he gave the camera a small wave.
The comments section went nuclear–question marks and exclamation points flooded the feed.
“Am I seeing things? Did I skip lunch and start hallucinating? Is that him?”
“What the heck!”
“Oh my god, it’s really Easton!”
“That’s Easton!”
“The production team really outdid themselves–how’d they land Easton?”
“The secrecy was insane. I follow his schedule religiously and didn’t catch a hint!”
“I’m gonna faint. I must be dreaming–this is too good to be true!”
“Totally worth the wait! They got Easton!”

“Easton is too good–looking. I don’t even care about the show–I’ll just watch him every day and drool.”
“Waving at the camera like that should be illegal, Easton! Actually, never mind–do it more. I’m obsessed.”
“So the final reveal was Easton… fair enough. He’s worthy of the finale.”
“It’s just Easton in my heart now. No one else exists.”
With the final reveal, all the celebrity guests had taken the stage. At that moment, nearly every comment in the livestream was just one name, Easton.
Meanwhile, Behind the Spotlight exploded onto Twitter’s trending list.
“Easton” and “Behind the Spotlight” shot straight to the top two spots. Other guest names also cracked the top ten–one single variety show had taken over the whole platform.
“The show’s live? Easton’s in it? I’m locked in.”
“Easton, here I come! Someone drop a stream link!”
“The production team really splurged. This cast is crazy expensive.”
“Wow, I’m going to watch now!”
“Easton rarely does variety shows–I have to support this one!”
“I’m super happy with this lineup. Props to the team–they know what they’re doing.”
The stream continued.
Next up was the introduction of the regular contestants.
Jean stood under the tree a short distance away with the other civilian guests. Sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting straight down on all of them.
It was a little too bright.
Jean squinted instinctively.
Julia stood off to her right, separated by a few people.
There were as many regular contestants as there were celebrities to match with.
They were all around the same age–young, and visibly nervous.
Besides Jean and Julia, there were several boys and girls the show had found from who–knows- where. They stood in a neat line, waiting for instructions from the crew.

Jean was scheduled to go last.
