Jared paused for a moment and said, "Ms. Nelson, could you send me the actual evidence so I can verify it?" Yvette immediately got angry. "What do you mean? Do you think I'm lying and trying to defame someone?"

"That's not what I mean. It's just..." Jared hesitated. "I have to explain it to Mr. Nelson, and this list needs to be optimized before the next quarter. Changing the cafeteria contractor means choosing a new one at least a month in advance. It's quite rushed." Yvette snorted, "Do you think I didn't consider all this? I'll talk to Finn. Just put the name on the list. I have a friend who works in this area. I'll give him your contact info, and you two can discuss it." Yvette settled the matter in a few words. Jared didn't reply right away. Yvette casually remarked, "Jared, you've been working with Finn for three years, right?"

"Yes, I got promoted right after Mr. Nelson took charge of the company," Jared answered.

"Then you should know how much my dad and Finn dote on me. Do you think such a small matter is beyond me and that I have to bother Finn about it?" Yvette said.

Jared clearly understood the significance of Yvette's words. He often bought gifts for Yvette at Finn's request. Since Yvette lately damaged the company's image, he had been handling the fallout.

The priority that Finn and Cody gave to Yvette was obvious. Jared paused for a moment and then replied seriously, "Alright, I know what needs to be done."

Yvette gave a satisfied smile and ended the call. Her eyes had a gloomy look. She had been unsure about taking this step, but now, she thought, 'Felix, you forced my hand! You're all heartless to me, and you betrayed me! I'll make you pay for this!' She quickly sent a message to Lago, asking him to coordinate with Gideon and Jared. After completing these tasks, Yvette felt at ease and walked out.

Just as she opened the door, she was startled by the sudden appearance of Lonely Bird. Yvette turned pale. "Wh-What are you doing here?"

Her mind was a tangled mess. She wondered, 'Damn, when did she come? How much did she overhear?'

Shakira remained expressionless. "Your headset got disconnected. Everyone's been looking for you."

Feeling nervous, Yvette tried to explain it. "I had to... You know, nature calls."

Shakira sneered, exposing her flimsy lie. "Is there even a bathroom inside?"

Yvette was speechless.

Without caring how embarrassed Yvette felt, Shakira turned and walked out. Yvette watched her cold and proud silhouette, her eyes turning icy.

After the guests were settled into their accommodations, the program team gave them the usual tasks. Each group had six 'people, and their mission was to get to know the local villagers and score an invite for dinner.
