Pampered By The Ruthless Underground Boss

Chapter 531:

“Yes, Khloe did it on purpose! But we will always support Giuliana. Khloe, you should quit the show and leave the entertainment industry.”

“Our poor Giuliana! She can’t even cry. Khloe, you are so heartless!”

Sloane was also frightened by Khloe’s commanding presence. Her face stiffened as she fearfully snuggled into Eric’s embrace. “Eric…”

Since they had no water, Eric had been extremely thirsty, making him irritable. “Khloe, stop messing around. No one is in the mood to play with you right now.”noveldrama

With Giuliana’s sudden silence, Khloe had no actual plan of hurting her. After all, there were cameras around. She wasn’t gullible enough to give anyone grounds to find fault with her. She retracted the dagger, her expression cool and detached. Before walking away, she said, “The water source is just ahead. If you don’t believe me, stay here.”

As Khloe turned and walked away without looking back, everyone exchanged uneasy glances. Panic surged in their hearts. They couldn’t help but recall the scene when Khloe skillfully dealt with that venomous snake, instinctively feeling that no matter how many unknown dangers lurked in the jungle, Khloe could handle them. Now that Khloe had left, they felt like they had lost a valuable protector.

With this realization, Skyla quickly stood up and chased after Khloe. “Khloe, wait for me. I’m coming with you.”

Eric also stepped forward.

When Sloane saw this, displeasure filled her eyes. She strode forward, clung to Eric’s arm, and asked sweetly, “Eric, do you think she can really find water?”

“I don’t know,” Eric replied with uncertainty. His expression faltered for a moment before he quickly feigned calmness. “But it’s only a three-hundred-meter walk to find out. Let’s go.”

If this were the old Khloe, Eric would have likely disregarded her. After all, he used to think that although she had strong academic ability, she was unkind and cold-blooded, someone who only caused trouble for others.

But since they joined this show, Eric had witnessed Khloe’s changes more clearly and up close. She had excellent archery skills, could build survival shelters, cook well, and face danger fearlessly. She was also quick and efficient in resolving issues. Besides, every word Khloe spoke seemed to come true.

With Khloe shining so brightly now, Eric felt that he must choose to trust her this time.

The change in Eric’s expression did not escape Sloane’s sharp eyes. She felt a sense of foreboding in her heart, and her resentment toward Khloe’s return intensified. She became even more determined not to let Khloe have an easy time.

Watching everyone follow Khloe, Giuliana felt both angry and anxious. But, of course, she didn’t dare to stay behind. She suppressed the fury in her heart, caught up with them, and shouted at Khloe, “Khloe, if there’s no water, you have to do whatever I say. If I ask you to kneel, you can’t stand until I say so.”

“And if there is?” Khloe asked.

“Then I’ll kneel and apologize,” Giuliana shouted.

Khloe turned to Giuliana, slightly curling her red lips. “Remember what you said.”

Giuliana glared at Khloe as if she wanted to swallow her alive. Khloe’s calm demeanor really got on her nerves. “Fine! Let’s see how long you can keep up this act.”

Finally, they reached the three-hundred-meter distance.

Giuliana’s eyes swept the surroundings. The trees towered into the sky, their broad leaves obscuring the view. Weeds taller than a person grew wildly on the ground, with no sign of water.

Giuliana said mockingly, “Khloe, where’s the water? Weren’t you so confident just now? You even called me trash. Bah! You made fools of your teammates just to show off. You are so disgusting!”

Khloe paused. Standing by a clump of tall grass, she reached out and parted the dense foliage, revealing a clear spring. Her lips curled slightly. “It’s time to kneel.”
