When the Family 79

Chapter 79 Are You Really That Scared of Him?

At the moment, various documents about the show were spread out across her computer screen. Julia had already familiarized herself with most of the details. She’d be paired up with a celebrity to participate in the show together.

Two days later, Jean left the Ginger family’s villa with her suitcase packed and ready.

Everyone in the Ginger family already knew she was going on the variety show.

Jean hadn’t planned to hide it. After all, once she appeared on live television, everyone would find out anyway.

He hadn’t even come home, so there was no way he would’ve been willing to help a half–sister he’d barely interacted with get on a show.

With that thought, Sienna quickly shook her head. “No… Easton wouldn’t do something like that.”
