Chapter 25 Wolves on the Prowl
"Ugh, I need a break. I can't go on anymore!"
"Totally. Training all day is killing me. I don't care about prize money or a dorm. Let's just quit."
Overhearing, Kaylee snapped, "How can you be so selfish? We're a team. Your lousy performance affects us all!"
The two shrugged carelessly. Jezebel quipped, "Who cares? If we drag you down, tough luck!"
Sonya chimed in, "Exactly. You chose to be in our group. The instructor put us together, not our call."
In reality, the pair planned to sabotage Violeta deliberately.
Before the assessment, Zelena approached, pretending to be concerned for Violeta, saying, "My family wants my sister back. Do your best to ruin Violeta's chances. Only then will she be willing to leave and return to the Blake family."
Jezebel and Sonya fell for Zelena's manipulation.
Of course, Zelena promised them a handsome incentive.
Zelena had dangled fifty thousand in front of Jezebel and Sonya to ensure their cooperation in sabotaging Violeta.
Why would they refuse to get fifty thousand without the struggle of earning a high ranking and currying favor with Zelena?

However, with Jezebel and Sonya in their current state, ending up in the bottom ten seemed inevitable.
Violeta suspected Zelena had poisoned their minds behind her back.
Kaylee asked them, "What more do you want to start moving again? Isn't the fifty thousand prize tempting enough?" Certainly not! Why go through the hard work for the money when they could slack off and still receive the same amount? Jezebel and Sonya just rolled their eyes at Kaylee, not bothering to respond. Persuasion didn't work for them.
