[Wait, did he mute the mic? Zachary, what did you say to her? Why are her ears so red!]
The trending topics were dominated with hashtags: "What Did Zachary Say During The Muted 30 Seconds", "Zachary Blushing".
After the show, I looked at the trending topics and couldn't help but laugh.
Zachary blushing? Hardly.
Only the tips of his ears were a bit red, just like they used to be when we kissed before.
But his face never turned red.
I was scrolling through my phone when Joshua angrily knocked it out of my hand, shattering the screen.
I frowned at him, feeling a bit impatient.
His expression showed hurt from my reaction, and he angrily demanded, "Lillian! Why didn't you choose me?"
I found Joshua's outburst somewhat absurd. Had he forgotten how he had treated me?
When I first met Joshua, I was standing in the rain.
In the pouring rain, he gave me a chance, but only to be Verna's stand-in while she was abroad.
I once delivered wine to them late at night to enhance their dates.
And what did Joshua do?
To make Verna smile, he poured the wine over my head.
It was a cold winter night and I was left shivering and soaked.
Even participating in this reality show was because Joshua wanted to promote Verna, so he dragged me, with my tarnished reputation, into the show to make her shine.
I knew Joshua planned to use me to highlight Verna's grace and charm, ensuring her stardom.
Just thinking about it made me laugh.
I looked at Joshua and smiled slightly.
