A Matter of Wife and Love by Mila

Seeing the hatred lurking in Jodie’s eyes, Elyse languidly strutted over with a worried look. “Fabian and Fiona have not returned. Miss Foxy has volunteered to go look for them, but Chester doesn’t want to go. What about you?”

“Why should we look for them? They’re in Team A. Naturally, their teammates should be responsible for looking for them if they’re missing. We should use our remaining stamina to look for the key and leave!” Giada objected.

Hearing that, Gordon nodded. “The production team won’t leave them be. We should focus on our own task.”

He then turned to Jodie. “What do you think, Miss Alston?”

Jodie had been the most vocal about wanting to return the other day. Therefore, he believed she was most likely to agree with him.

“I don’t know,” she coldly answered before walking away.

Instantly, confusion was written across his face. Have I offended her in any way?

Meanwhile.

“Everyone has been split into groups, so looking for them is not our job. We have no reason to waste our time for them,” Chester insisted on sticking to his boundaries. “Miss Foxy, I know you want to be nice, but please remember that anyone who finds the key wins and can leave early. As for the other team, it is naturally the production team’s responsibility.” Ultimately, his words came off as rather heartless, even though they were merely debating their respective standpoints.

“While you’re not wrong, Fabian is a member of our team. Even if we have the key, we cannot leave without him,” Amelie said darkly. She did not get angry at him for his cruel words, though.

Her response made Chester gape in shock, and he eventually threw something in frustration. “Fabian is even our team leader! Why is he so unruly? He’s dragged our entire team down with him!”

He then glanced at Giada. “Either way, I don’t agree with looking for him. The production team only said anyone who finds the key first gets to leave first. They didn’t say the entire team needs to leave together.”

Nevertheless, Amelie did not believe that Fabian had committed any wrongdoing. The purpose of this show is for people to confess their love to the person they have a crush on. His actions are spot-on with what the show wants.

“So, why don’t we let Mr. Alston make the call?” Chester turned his attention to Leo after realizing he couldn’t persuade Amelie.

Although Leo might be a man of few words, his actions were much more effective. He was also much better at analyzing situations. He was unanimously recognized as the group’s leader during his brief time with them.
