Chapter 241
Over an hour later, the production team sent a car to take Nicole to the airport.
The live stream kicked off for the day.
The six guests showed up on camera.
Marley said, “Since Nicolas and Nicole can’t continue due to health reasons, we’re cutting the original four teams down to three.”
He turned to Caleb and Jett. “Mr. Hammond, Mr. Kingsley, how about you two team up
next?”
Both of them replied at the same time, “No way.”
After that, they exchanged looks of obvious annoyance, making it clear they had zero interest in being paired together.
Marley was speechless. “These two are just too spoiled,’ he thought.
But he couldn’t afford to upset either of them, so he asked, “So, what do you guys want to
do?”
Caleb said, “Let’s reshuffle the teams, or we can each join one of the other two groups.”
Jett chimed in, “I’m all for reshuffling.
“Didn’t some viewers ask for the guests to switch teams before? Let’s just do it today.”
Marley thought it over. “Alright, let’s switch up the teams.
“You two will draw lots. Whoever you pick, that’s your new teammate.
“The remaining two will automatically be a team.”
Alicia and the other three didn’t have any objections to this plan.
Caleb stepped forward first. “I’ll go first.”
Jett rolled his eyes and stayed silent.
Marley mixed up the slips of paper with the other four guests’ names and placed them in a bowl for Caleb to pick from.
Caleb kept chanting in his mind, ‘Please let it be Alicia!’
He grabbed a slip, opened it, and instantly looked sick.

Chapter 239
Everyone looked over, and Landon looked just as miserable.
Both of them thought at the same time, ‘Seriously? I ended up with this guy? What rotten luck.’
Seeing Caleb’s result, Jett burst out laughing. “You got paired with your arch-nemesis, Caleb. Man, you really drew the short straw.”
Caleb shot him a glare. “Go draw yours already.”
Jett stepped up, grabbed a slip, and looked genuinely surprised when he opened it.
He waved the slip at Alicia. “Alicia, I’m counting on you to look after me today.”
Caleb’s face turned even darker when he saw Jett had ended up with Alicia.
If he hadn’t seen this nutcase draw it himself, he’d have suspected Jett was cheating.
Alicia looked surprised too, clearly not expecting to be paired with Jett. “Alright, I’ll have your back today.”
She couldn’t shake the feeling that this was exactly what Jett wanted.
There was no way he ended up with her by accident. He definitely had an agenda.
She was just going to watch and see what kind of tricks he’d pull.
After splitting into three teams, everyone went back to hustling their get-rich schemes from before.
Alicia took Jett up the mountain to check out the wild tea.
Jett wasn’t as fit as Alicia, so he was already out of breath after just a short climb and asked to stop for a break.
Seeing Alicia looking totally unfazed, he sat down and sighed, “Alicia, you can really tell you’ve trained. You’re built tough.”
Alicia crossed her arms and looked at him. “You’re just out of shape.”
‘This guy’s not just a mental mess, he’s physically weak too,’ she thought.
Jett looked speechless. “You can’t say that about a guy.”
Alicia rolled her eyes and didn’t bother to respond.
After resting for a bit, Jett got up and kept climbing.
By the fifth break, they were almost at the top.
Chapter 239
Jett looked at Alicia and pointed to a nearby hillside. “Those wildflowers over there look really pretty. Let’s go pick some.”
‘He’s definitely up to something. No way he actually cares about wildflowers-he’s finally making his move, Alicia thought.
So she didn’t refuse. “Sure.”
They walked over together, with the cameraman trailing behind.
The wildflowers really were gorgeous.
There was a cluster of bright red wildflowers growing right at the edge of the hillside. Jett bent down to pick them.
Suddenly, he slipped and was about to tumble down the slope.
Right away, Alicia knew what he was up to. She reached out, grabbed him, and went along with his plan, letting herself fall too.
She’d checked out the terrain earlier. As long as they were careful, they’d only end up with a few scrapes.
