Chapter 852: Tina’s Drunken Chaos

Everyone stood frozen, staring at Tina as if lightning had struck the room. Her sudden outburst was utterly baffling.

Ruud, however, was unexpectedly elated. His daughter had given him an order-how could he refuse?

"Listen up, everyone! Women carry 10 pounds, men carry 20 pounds. We're running a 20-kilometer extreme cross-country route around the outskirts. Start and finish here-at the Brookes family estate!" The Brookes family gawked at him, their disbelief palpable.

"You're joking, right? A 20-kilometer run? Carrying weights? With one hand? What do you take us for, superheroes? We'll be dead halfway through!"

Ruud quickly realized he couldn't treat the Brookes like his soldiers. Adjusting his approach, he leaned toward Ian and lowered his voice.

"Dad, come on. Tina's serious! If we ignore her, she might come up with something worse. Let's just go along with this-it's safer."

Ian cast a wary glance at Tina. He didn't know what had gotten into her, but between a grueling run and some unknown chaos, he figured the former was the lesser evil-even if his aging body protested the thought. After a long sigh, Ian relented. "Fine. Everyone, follow Tina's orders!"

Resigned, the Brookes began scouring the estate for anything that could weigh 10 or 20 pounds. They stuffed their backpacks with books, pots, and even bags of rice before lining up in a loose formation. Within moments, the group set off down the road.

Tina, meanwhile, climbed into a car with a bamboo stick in hand, her expression stern. "Follow them. Don't let anyone slack off," she instructed the driver.

Brandon, jogging alongside Jared, glanced back at Tina in disbelief. "What the hell did you do to her?"

Jared frowned. "Me? I didn't do anything!"

"Then why is she acting like this?" Brandon grumbled. "This is insane. I haven't even married Angela yet-I'm too young to die!"

Jared ignored him, pulling out his phone. He scrolled through his contacts and called Dexter. No answer. Annoyed, he tried Hayden, who picked up almost immediately.

"Serena? What's up?" Hayden's casual tone was at odds with the chaos around Jared.

"It's me," Jared muttered.
