Chapter 82 Grand Entrance
"Yeah, Zara, everyone's super busy. Who's got tto hang out with a bunch of kids? This place is falling apart.
No way big stars like Michael and Karlie would show up here," one of the reporters grumbled, frustration evident
in his voice.
"Totally, maybe we should just bail," another reporter chimed in, looking around with a skeptical expression.
Sreporters were already thinking about leaving, their patience wearing thin. Zara, trying to keep things
under control, calmed the reporters down with a few reassuring words and then went to find Chloe.
Over by Chloe, things were a mess. Philip, Rena, and Dora were all huddled around her, trying to figure out what
to do.
Philip stressed, "Chloe, if Michael and Karlie don't show, we're going to look so bad. Can you call them again?
See where they're at?" His voice was tinged with panic.
"Philip, chill. Chloe's already stressed. If they don't come, we'll figure something out," Rena said, her voice
steady as she tried to ease the tension.
Philip shot back, "What can we figure out? We promised they'd be here! We can't just make stuff up now." His
frustration was evident in his furrowed brow and raised voice.
Zara, equally worried, chimed in, "Yeah, Chloe, can you try calling them again? With all these reporters here, we
really need them to show up."
Even Dora, usually the calm one, was starting to regret believing they'd come. "Who are Michael and Karlie? Are

"Look, everyone, don't stress. If they don't come, I'll explain to the reporters that it was my idea to get them here
to raise funds, and it has nothing to do with you guys," Dora said, taking responsibility.
While everyone else was freaking out, Chloe stayed surprisingly calm, checking her phone now and then.
"Relax, guys. Michael and Karlie will come. If they don't, the Davis Family will cover all the orphanage's future
funds," Chloe said confidently.
Another ten minutes passed, and the chatter got louder. Reporters were starting to pack up, and Zara was trying
to get them to stay a bit longer.
One of them, who knew Zara, confronted her, "Zara, | chere because you said Michael and Karlie would be
here. Otherwise, | wouldn't have bothered with this rundown place."
The reporter's words hit Zara hard.
Chloe felt a knot in her stomach. She could handle the pressure, but Zara had brought these reporters to help
her out. If Zara got humiliated because of her, it wouldn't be fair. Zara had always had her back, and now Chloe
needed to step up.
Chloe walked up to the reporter and said, "Hey, this isn't Zara's fault. It was my idea, and | messed up."
The reporter, still packing up, snapped back, "What's your apology worth? You're wasting my time. A bunch of
students like you trying to get Michael and Karlie? What a joke. | can't believe | fell for this. If you can't deliver,
don't make promises. Zara, this is the last t| trust you. I'm out."
After chewing out Zara and Chloe, the reporter called his colleagues to leave.
Just then, the sound of roaring engines filled the air. Everyone turned to see a group of sleek motorcyclists
pulling up to the orphanage gate. Leading the pack was Liam.
As he took off his helmet, everyone was stunned. He was incredibly handsome. Students from Quest University,
who saw Liam more often, were more used to him. But the reporters were witnessing something totally
unexpected. They went nuts, snapping pictures of Liam like crazy.
Liam was confused by all the attention. Wasn't he here to help his idol with svolunteer work? Why were
there so many reporters? Where was she?

Seeing Liam, Chloe finally felt a bit of relief. At least someone was here to back her up.
As the reporters focused on Liam, a

Seeing them, everyone was overjoyed. Dora, Philip, and Rena quickly went to greet them.
Chloe turned around, took a deep breath, and finally relaxed. Her tense features softened when she thought no
one was looking.
Just then, another car sped towards the orphanage.
