Chapter 543



However, Kallie knew there was more to the story. It likely had something to do with Saniya’s boyfriend. Now, Kallie’s curiosity was piqued even further. Was it Stan or Dean?

The following day, Saniya showed up on the set as expected.

Saniya wanted to talk to Elaine, but Elaine was avoiding her like the plague.

After yesterday’s events, everyone had seen Saniya’s true colors.

Even Debbie, who was usually gentle, was curt with Saniya.

Saniya felt aggrieved and a little furious. She had never been given the cold shoulder like this before. She blamed Kallie for all of it.

Kallie could feel Saniya’s resentful stares from behind, but she merely gave Saniya a dismissive glance. Saniya wasn’t even worth her time, let alone her effort.

The next day, they began to immerse themselves in rural life.

Saniya didn’t want to do any work. She had initially sought Elaine out, hoping to exploit Elaine’s sympathy and willingness to help with farm work.

However, no one was willing to be taken advantage of anymore. Reluctantly, Saniya had to tackle the tasks herself.

She constantly looked on the verge of tears. Despite everyone engaging in the same chores, Saniya acted as though she was being subjected to undue hardship. Her behavior didn’t go unnoticed, sparking criticism from many viewers:

“Oh my gosh! She is only watering vegetables. The show hasn’t assigned any heavy labor. Her face makes it look like she’s been asked to move mountains. She is definitely playing the victim.”

“Sophie does more work than Saniya and still has a smile on her face. I never realized how much Saniya exaggerates.”

“Crying like that just sours the mood. I can’t stand watching her constantly in tears.”

Meanwhile, the three adults and little Sophie were worlds apart from Saniya. Their interaction was warm and natural, like old friends reconnecting, rather than strangers who had just met on the show.

Some had expected Sophie to burst into tears, requiring Kallie’s soothing presence given her young age. However, the bright and charming Sophie proved them all wrong.

Sophie not only held her own but also cheerfully lent a hand to both Elaine and Debbie.

Completely smitten with Sophie, Debbie often pulled her into a hug, exclaiming, “Kallie, you have to let me keep Sophie! I really adore her. I have never met a child as adorable as she is.”

Kallie chuckled, giving Sophie’s cheek a gentle pinch. “What do you think, Sophie? Do you want to stay with Debbie?”

Sophie eagerly nodded and dashed over to Debbie, but then she took Debbie’s hand and said in a serious tone, “But Debbie, I can’t stay with you forever. You have to promise to send me back to my mom. She is the best mom in the world, and she will miss me if I’m away too long.”

Charmed by Sophie’s adorable demeanor, Debbie asked with a playful grin, “Does your mom scold you if you do something wrong?”
