Joey got Zachary a bottle of soda and uncapped it. Then, she placed it next to her drink.Next to her, Selena gently tickled her hand.Joey didn't turn to look at her, but she discreetly opened her palm for Selena to write on.Selena wrote, "Don't just get him sodas when so many drinks are available. That's the cheapest brand of soda on the show. They're only here as a sort of filler."Only then did Joey realize that the products on the live broadcast were all a subtle form of product placement. The rumors surrounding Zachary and Julia were already generating a great deal of attention. The program team gave them more camera time to create buzz around the show. Therefore, Joey holding a make-do soda wasted a great advertising opportunity.That being said, she remembered Zachary's preferences. He liked soda water and nothing else.After mulling it over, Joey moved her bottle of mineral water, which she had taken a sip from, further away. Then, she grabbed an energy drink and unca

Joey responded with a soft hum.One of the live broadcast cameras followed Zachary and Joey as they walked away. After the pair entered the guest room, the camera stopped at the door instead of following them inside.These five minutes were private for both of them.Zachary closed the door and gently locked it before turning his head to look at Joey. Flushed from the alcohol, she had become heavily intoxicated. As he watched her, she moved closer to him. Grabbing his hand, she drawled, "Why were you so heartless?"Worried about being overheard, he dragged her to the couch near the window. "What were you trying to say?" His voice, typically lacking warmth, had unknowingly softened.Fueled by alcohol, Joey stared at the face in front of her. Her eyes were bright and teary. She expressed aggrievedly, "Don't you see that I genuinely need your help? I understand this is a show, and you're being impartial, but I really did lose the draft due to Julia's unexpected arrival."She pres

How could Joey have done such a thing? It seemed Zachary hadn't asked her to kiss him but rather to confess whether she had feelings for him. How could this have happened?Joey lowered her head and ran her fingers through her hair. She decided that whenever she saw Zachary, she would hide in a corner. She would also keep her distance until he forgot about what she did.After the host's announcement, Joey excused herself to get some fresh air. Then, she left the hotel and left Selena behind. Joey sought solace in the cool breeze to soothe her racing heart and to cool down. She also gave herself a gentle slap on the face to restore her usual aloof demeanor before returning to the hotel.She convinced herself that what happened meant nothing. Perhaps she could admit that she was drunk. After all, she was ready to divorce Zachary and wasn't going to entertain any foolish thoughts.When she exited the elevator, she saw him waiting for her outside her hotel room. He stood by the door,

As Kent introduced the art of tea brewing, he also mentioned their sponsor's name.When it was time to make desserts, he stood by Joey's side. He told the camera, "Back in the olden days, these desserts were called 'little cakes'. Isn't that interesting?" He was good-looking. Plus, when he smiled with his sharp eyes, it was especially alluring. The viewers instantly complimented him in the comments section. Kent looked at Joey and said, "Ms. Linton, over to you to make these cookies. Please show everyone how it's made."Joey guessed that it was a task instructed by their sponsor, so she nodded in agreement. "Sure." Initially, Kent had planned to give Joey a hand. But Zachary had come by their side unexpectedly, without him noticing. He stared at Kent for three seconds. Kent nodded and then stepped aside. "Alright, you'll assist her." Selena was on the other side. She gasped sharply as she wondered what was wrong with Zachary. He seemed to have become her Siamese twin. H

Zachary loosened his grip on Joey's chin. He stood to the side and looked down at her."Contact me when the time comes. I'll bring you the draft. I'll see you tonight." He walked to the door, opened it, and walked out. The atmosphere between them had been toasty. However, one phone call from Julia had turned the air in the room chilly.Joey sat by herself for a little longer, then got up to take a shower. After her shower, she went to look for Selena to tell her about Zachary's request. Selena was so enraged that she threw her phone on the couch. "I thought he was treating you nicely on the program. I thought that maybe there was some improvement in the relationship between the both of you. Who knew … Give him an inch, and he'll really take a mile!" "He still treats Julia differently," Joey answered softly. Selena walked to the tea table. She knelt down to pour herself a glass of water. She took two big gulps before replying, "I thought we could teach Julia a good lesso
