Eshal stood in fear as Keith slowly approached her. She noticed a knife on a table, so she quickly grabbed it.

"Don't take another fucking step, old man." She threatened him, but he didn't listen to her. She tried to stab him, but he successfully grabbed her hand and stole a knife from her.

"I know I hate your grandfather, right? I know you knew that as well. You read my journal, you read everything I wrote in my stupid fucking notebook, and you learned that I'm your uncle. Yet this is how you change your point of view? Interesting. "

Eshal tried her best to feel imitate as Keith carefully examined the knife.

"You know, despite being a part of a wealthy family, you ran away and chose to live as an independent. Oh wait, they want you to get married early because they are fucking misogynists. 'Women should stay in the kitchen, they said.'" Keith added as he slowly put his knife in his pocket. "But I kid you not, even though you're my niece, it doesn't change the treatment. Everyone should be treated the same. "

Eshal tried to run away from him, but he managed to catch her up. Keith noticed the necklace he put on every contestant was gone. "I see you managed to destroy my little necklace. I guess I should declare you eliminated."  Keith immediately carried her transferred sfer to the other building. Eshal tried to escape, but unfortunately, Keith was too strong. As soon as he found a freezer box, he aggressively put her inside. She tried to flee, but Keith completely shut and locked the door.He could hear her screaming begging to let her go, but he decided to set the freezer box temperature to its lowest and left the building where she was freezing to death.

Journal No. 56

I noticed how Eshal Brookes secretly left while in the middle of the challenge. Of course, I heard my alarm ring for a moment, but it went silent. I know I can just chase her down and pull her back, but the show must go on. I decided to show my face to the remaining contestants and announced that there would be no challenge because I decided to hold a celebration for the remaining five.

But of course, I can kill Eshal after they eat their food since she secretly left the studio, which was against the rules of my show.

Unfortunately, everything changed as soon as I went back to my room, and I saw her reading this journal. She also discovered everything about the show, the motivation, everything I wrote down, including me as her uncle.

This can't be happening. She's not allowed to discover everything about me.

So I decided to silence her right away, but I didn't want her to commit suicide because I don't want a single drop of blood on my room.

I hope she's having a hard time with a death all by herself.

This is the only way I can think of to keep what she discovered about me from spreading to the rest of my competitors.

I'm sorry, Eshal.

OOO

"Have you seen Eshal?" Katherine asked her fellow contestant. They are in the living room, where they decided to have a cup of tea to cope with what happened today.

"No, the last time I saw her was when she passed me a ball." Jaxx answered as he took a sip from his cup of tea. "Speaking of the ball, have you seen how it explodes, right? It means he fucking lied to us. He said whoever is still holding a ball will be exempted from the elimination. Guess what happened to Clyde? He fucking explodes just like the first contestant on this show. He fucking did a reversed psychology shit on us. "

As much as Jaxx complained about today's challenge, Kathy couldn't help but wonder about Eshal's condition. She decided to check every room in the house, but there was no sign of her. As soon as she went back to the living room, she suddenly made an announcement.

"Guys, Eshal is missing."

The living room suddenly filled with different reactions.

"What? Where is she? " Jaxx angrily said as she threw a cup to the floor, causing it to shatter.

"She must be in this room. You just need to find her carefully," Calvin calmly suggested to her.

"This must be a mistake. Where is she?" Jeff asked. The three men decided to check the house as well to find Eshal, but after five minutes, they went back to the living room.

"We searched for her everywhere but there's no sign of her." Calvin said as he sat down on the couch.

"Guys, I have this strange suggestion, but what if she was secretly eliminated while we're in the middle of the fifth challenge?" Jeff's suggestion left them speechless and made Kathy even more worried.

"That's not a funny suggestion," Kathy said as she went back to her room. Jeff was about to chase after her, but Calvin interrupted him.

"I think you should leave her alone for a moment. Maybe we should look at her later, but now I must ask an important question. Are you a person who surrenders her communication devices?"

"What? Of course not, I mean, Jaxx did it since he's the only person who demanded she give it to her. I bet he did it because he's too greedy and desperately wants thirty million all by himself. " Jeff's response made Jaxx approach him and was about to give him a punch.

"Jaxx, calm down. This is not the best way to manage your anger." Calvin grabbed his left arm and tried to calm him down. Jaxx took a deep breath as he took a few back steps away from him.

"You most likely did it. Why did you even ask it in the first place? " Jeff teased him, which caused him to calmly laugh at him.

"Me? Don't be such a jerk. Besides, you did it because you wanted to stay here in the show, right? " Jaxx and Calvin decided to leave Jeff alone in the living room.
