Chapter 1738

chapter1738

Worst came to worst, she just had to agree to Warwick Bourn's proposal and become his lover for three years.

The thought of Warwick made her heart resist uncontrollably.

Climbing the mountain was slow, but descending was much faster. In just over an hour, they were back down at the foot of the mountain.

At the foot of the mountain was the village where they were filming.

The production team had arranged accommodations in advance, renting a house from a villager. It had a courtyard and several rooms, enough to house them all.

The male artists shared one room, and the female artists shared another. The production team occupied the other rooms.

At dinner, the crew announced the next task.

Pairs were to be formed, and it was clear they wanted to create some drama- each pair would consist of one male and one female artist.

And the groups were to be formed freely.

As soon as the director finished speaking, the artists exchanged glances. Those who had previously worked together or were easygoing quickly paired up.

However, Charles didn't take the initiative.

Sienna gave him several meaningful looks, but he didn't acknowledge her, leaving her no choice but to pair with another male artist who was actively seeking a partner.

Thelma, almost like a lucky afterthought, ended up with Charles. She belatedly said to Charles, "Mr. Sullivan, don't worry. I won't drag you down."

Charles, indifferent to whether anyone held him back, replied, "I won't drag you down either."

Thelma was a little surprised. She hadn't expected Charles to be as approachable as he turned out to be. It starkly contrasted with his reputation.

Perhaps it was because she had resolved in her heart to find Warwick after the program ended that she wasn't as cautious around Charles anymore.

As long as she avoided any actions that could spark gossip, viewers wouldn't latch onto any rumors. This way, she wouldn't trouble Charles.

As for Warwick... His jealousy ran deep. If she agreed to him, she might not get any more acting opportunities for the next few years.

"Can you start a fire?" Charles asked her.

Snapping out of her thoughts, Thelma nodded. "Yes, I can."

"Then you start the fire, and I'll cook Winning today means we can

choose tomorrow's tasks first, &\

Charles said, confident in his

cooking skills.

Looking at Thelma, he figured she didn't seem like the type who could cook.

Half an hour later, while the other

two teams still struggled to get their fires started, Thelma had already

skillfully lit hers and even begun helping Charles chop vegetables.

"This fire keeps going out!"

"We can't get ours lit either!"

The other two teams turned to see Charles and Thelma calmly working away, their fire burning steadily. They were amazed.

Not only that, but the duo had already started preparing ingredients, making the others anxious.

Sienna's eyes darted around before she ran over to ask Charles, "Mr. Sullivan, our fire won't light. How did you do it?"

"It was Thelma who lit it," Charles replied coolly. Couldn't she see he was busy preparing ingredients?

When Sienna heard it was Thelma, she initially looked surprised, then subtly tried to disparage her.

"Thelma, can you teach me how to start a fire? Oh, now that I think about it, didn't you grow up in the countryside?"

In truth, Thelma didn't look like

someone who grew up in the countryside. Her features were strikingly refined and eye-catching, more like someone who had lived a pampered life.
