Chapter 44

Aurora was undoubtedly a shining star in the entertainment field, and her relationship with Egbert

always attracted attention, so it was pretty clear that the show wanted to capitalize on them.

The mission, as announced, was suddenly altered

Usually, the mission is to check in at five spots, but this time it’s increased to ten. The locations are set,

but so is the budget, it’s doubled. However, the time for the mission remains the same” The crew said.

Hearing this, everyone started to whisper among themselves

A staff member from the show clapped their hands to get everyone’s attention and said, “Since we

have more tasks this time, we suggest you split into teams. Six people can divide into two or three

teams.”

Aurora pouted, “Why is it that as soon as I come, the mission gets so hard?’ She then turned to the

others, saying softly, “I don’t know much about this game, I’ll follow your lead.”

Everyone was silent, and all eyes were on Eileen.

Aurora hadn’t seen the previous two episodes because she was too busy to watch any variety shows.

However, she understood the concept of the show. The meaning of Traveller 5+1 seemed to be that

there were five regular guests and one Travel Concierge, whose job was to take care of their daily

needs, basically like an assistant

Knowing that Eileen was the Travel Concierge, Aurora suddenly said when she saw everyone staring

at Eileen, “Hey, that’s not fair. Are you planning to have her run around taking care of everyone after we

split into teams? She’s a girl too”

Aurora thought she made a valid point, showing her calmness and understanding. But after she spoke,

she found everyone looking at her. She asked in confusion, “What’s up? Did I say something wrong?

Did you make Stewart do everything in the previous two episodes? Carrying luggage, doing chores,

running errands? That’s just too much!”

As she spoke, Aurora started to laugh, clearly taking her words as a joke. Considering the live cameras

were on her, she certainly didn’t believe the previous guests would make a girl do everything. They

would definitely be criticized by the audience.

“Aurora, I’ll explain later Hubery whispered to Aurora.

“Explain what?” Aurora asked in confusion.

Hubery shook his head, indicating now was not the time to ask.

Eileen shifted her gaze from Aurora and asked the others coldly. “Do you want to split into teams?”

“We can split Bblythe answered directly. The task is heavy, there are many spots to hit, and we need to

check in at specific locations. If we split up, we can use our time more efficiently”

also suggest we split into teams. Hubery interjected. He actually knew Aurora was coming, his

manager told him yesterday. His manager also told him that this episode might involve team splitting,

whether into three or two teams wasn’t clear. But if they split into two teams, it would be him, Aurora,

and Egbert. If three, it would be Aurora and Egbert

All of this was pre-arranged by the show. The show planned to use the reunion of Aurora and Egbert to

attract viewers. His manager told him that if he had a chance to work with a top star like Aurora, he

should seize the opportunity and show off.

That was why Hubery seemed so happy this morning. With a big star like Aurora around, as long as he

stayed close to her, he was certain to get screen

time

Ignoring Hubery, Eileen asked Bblythe, “How should we split, two teams or three?”

Bblythe frowned. “Let’s split into two teams.

Eileen nodded and immediately started splitting, “Me, Bblythe, Josiah in one team, Mr. Reed, Ms.

Aurora, Hubery in the other, any objections?” She asked, looking at the other three.

Aurora laughed at this, glanced at Egbert, and said gently, “I have no objections:

Hubery also said, “Neither do I.”

“That settles it then. Eileen interrupted Hubery. “Now let’s start splitting”

“I have an objection. Suddenly, Egbert, who had been silent, spoke up.

Everyone instantly turned to Egbert. Aurora’s expression changed slightly, but quickly regained its

calm.

Egbert glanced at the show’s staff and said nonchalantly, “I suggest we split into three teams.”

Splitting into three teams meant two people per team.

Eileen looked at Egbert and then at Aurora next to him, smiling, ‘Alright, if we split into three teams, it

would be more efficient. Who do you want to team with? Ms. Aurora? Or Hubery?”

Eileen kept her eyes on Aurora as she spoke.

However, a cold male voice suddenly sounded, “You”

Everyone went silent

Aurora squinted her eyes, giving Eileen a cold look. But as soon as the camera turned to her, her face

switched back to its previous softness. Ellen frowned, asking Egbert directly, “Why me?”

“No reason.” Egbert said.

“Well, I’m sorry, but I don’t want to be in a team with you. Eileen said.

Egbert didn’t respond, just quietly stared at her.

Eileen turned to Bblythe, “If we split into three teams, Bblythe, we’ll be a team.”

Bblythe was about to agree when she noticed Egbert’s cold gaze. She shivered.

Hesitating, Bblythe said, “I’d rather be with Josiah, His wife even messaged me before we left, asking

me to take care of him and remind him to take his medication.”

Eileen was taken aback, “Josiah is sick?”

Josiah chuckled, “It’s just vitamins. My wife is a nutritionist.”

Eileen said, “Well then…”

Bblythe quickly said, “You either pair up with Ms. Aurora, Hubery, or Mr. Reed. Josiah and I have

already decided to be in a team. Right, Josiah?”

Josiah, catching Bblythe’s hint, nodded and said, “Yeah.”

Eileen’s face turned sour, and she shifted her gaze to the other three people in the room. Aurora was

out of the question. She had just noticed that this woman was eyeballing her. Hubery? No way. She

was afraid she won’t be able to resist punching him every minute, until he passed out.

As for Egbert, out of all the options, the only one left was Egbert.

Eileen looked at Egbert. He seemed calm, and he was also looking back at her.

Eileen, feeling irritated, said, “Whatever!’ After that, she took out the show’s budget she had received

earlier, twenty thousand yen. She divided it into three parts, and distributed it to the three teams.

When Aurora took the money, her movements were exaggerated, almost as if she was snatching it

from Eileen’s hand. Eileen squinted her eyes, thinking to herself, “What’s wrong with this woman?”

She hadn’t told Egbert not to choose Aurora. If Aurora wanted to be in a team with Egbert, wouldn’t she

just say it herself?

Worried about ruining her public image, yet hoping others could see through her and expecting

everyone to cater to her every whim, did she think she was the center of the world and everyone

should revolve around her?

Eileen decided she also had a bone to pick with Aurora!
