My Sugar and Your Spice (Amelia and Leo)

Chapter 285

Chapter 285 Snake Bite

The sun rose early the next morning. At the break of dawn, the contestants had already woken up, and the host made his appearance. Their task for the day was picking and making tea. It was then the contestants realized that there was a mountain near the camp, and on it were fields of tea leaves. These people went all their lives drinking tea, but not once did they ever make tea. Delighted by the task, they urged the production team and everyone to set off at once.

But then, a scream pierced through the air. Everyone froze, then Chester ran into Team A's tent.

"Giada's in trouble, huh?" Fiona approached Amelie.

Amelie looked around. The girls were all here, save for Giada. Just when she was about to say something, two more cries rang from the tent, and everyone ran toward it.

Just before they could enter the tent, Giada screamed shrilly. "A snake! A snake bit me!"

Everyone's faces fell. Fabian tore the entrance's curtains open, and everyone looked inside. Giada was all curled up, holding her leg. She was screaming and looking as pale as a ghost. Chester was white as well, hiding in a corner. And then everyone saw a green snake slither out of the tent, moving as fast as a bolt of green lightning.

"Am I gonna die?" Giada burst into tears, fearing for her life.

Chester snapped out of it. "Where's the doctor?"

Fabian ran inside and picked Giada up. And then he quickly darted over to the production team. The staff members were taking it seriously. Fortunately, they had a medic with them, and Giada was taken into the trailer. With the snake emergency looming over them, the contestants' earlier passion was fully doused. They waited for a while, and the doctor eventually came out.

"How is it?" Chester asked in a hurry.

The doctor took his gloves off. "The snake is not venomous, fortunately. I've given her the serum, so she should be fine."

Chester heaved a sigh of relief, but he asked, "Where did that snake come from?"

Giada hobbled out of the car, and Chester quickly held her.

"Yeah. Where did that snake come from?" Giada's eyes were red with fear, and she looked at the tents. We barricaded the tents with sulfur. There's no way any snakes could've gotten into the tents."

Obviously, someone put the snake in her tent when everyone was sleeping. Or so she accused.

"Yeah, true. We did that." Everyone looked at one another in suspicion.

"Why don't we call the cops?" someone suggested.

"What say you, Foxy?" Suddenly, Giada turned her attention to Amelie. "I'm in distress. Perhaps we should call the cops."

What is she trying to say?

"What are you talking about? You think Foxy was the one who sabotaged you?" Fiona snapped. She didn't like Giada's attitude.

Giada didn't hold back. "I see no other suspect. She knows what she did last night."

What? Amelie gave Giada an awkward look and turned her attention to Leo. Leo was in the distance, looking at them calmly, as if he was just a spectator. When Amelie looked at him, he met her eyes, but she saw no panic in his gaze. Only serenity.

Something happened last night? The other contestants gave Amelie a gossipy look.

Amelie quickly looked away, lest someone saw her meeting eyes with Leo. "A bold yet uncorroborated accusation, Miss Yates." She thought I would put a snake in her tent just because I saw her hugging Leo last night? That's a big leap of logic there.

Giada shuffled over to Amelie and huddled closer to her. Then she hissed quietly, "I know you've hooked up with Mr. Alston. You got mad jealous because I hugged him last night, and that snake was your attack on me."

Me, hooking up with him? Where did she get that idea? Gods, she's stupid. "I didn't do anything, Miss Yates. Do not accuse me of something I didn't do." She took a step back. Don't want her stupidity to rub off on me.

"I'm pretty sure you're just denying your crimes. We might have to call the cops," Giada growled.

"What are you, stupid? Just because you got bitten by a snake doesn't mean someone put it there, dumb*ss!"
