Nicole had planned to go on a ski trip with Yvette and Julie, but she was pestered by Nathaniel several times. He wanted her to participate in some adventure variety show that he was producing and participating in.Nicole was not interested in it because she was enjoying her best life, so why make things difficult for herself?She was also never one to willingly put herself in challenging situations!However, Nathaniel came hounding at the Stanton Mansion’s door time and time again, so regularly that he was pretty much living at their house. Floyd and Kai were annoyed at Nathaniel’s persistence, so they urged Nicole to just participate in the show.Kai even lent his personal crew to Nicole, including his assistant, make-up artist, and driver, so Nicole did not have to worry about anything.At this moment, Nicole was leaning back in a rocking chair with an umbrella overhead shading her from the hot sun. Nicole closed her eyes and enjoyed the warm breeze and nice weather.The make-
Mikayla also seemed to be a little surprised, but the filming could not be stopped, so naturally, she could not back out.Besides, it was also live-streamed!The three men were very satisfied with the result.They thought that they would be able to win this round without any woman holding them back.Nicole did not say a word. Anyway, her goal was just to pass the checkpoint. She did not care whether she won or not.It was a pity that during the shooting process, their assistants could not follow them. Only the cameraman was there to do the filming and he would not provide any help.Nicole took the tools and the backpack provided, then took the map and went separate ways from the guys.She looked down and focused on the route. There was a mountain path and a water route. Nicole and Mikayla got the map with the mountain path.Mikayla walked behind Nicole. She looked at Nicole’s back with unconcealed envy in her eyes.She had been in showbiz for so many years, yet she only got th
The grass and trees in the forest were wild and tall, with huge canopies of leaves shading the sky. Occasionally, some sunlight sprinkled through the leaves. It was vibrant and soothing.The path was very rugged, so it took a lot of effort to walk through.They had to reach the scheduled checkpoint before dark, where they would be given some supplies. Otherwise, they would have to sleep on the rocks.Thus, Nicole was not in the mood to play along with Mikayla at this time.However, Mikayla was still relentlessly trying to add frills to the situation.“Ms. Nicole, I just thought that you and Nathaniel have gone through so many hardships together, so you must have some feelings for each other. I don’t mean anything else…”Mikayla’s cautious look was annoying Nicole.Nicole stopped a dozen meters away on the path that was covered up by trees and looked back at Mikayla.Mikayla did not expect Nicole to suddenly stop, so she subconsciously stumbled a step back and stood firm.She w
That cave was not on the map that Nicole saw earlier. Since it was not on the map, there must be something fishy about it.Nicole used a stick to poke at the weeds covering the cave entrance. Mikayla also had the good sense to go forward and help.The inside of the cave was dark, and the ground was flooded with water. It was eerie and dreary. Even the smell was hard to bear.Nicole took a deep breath and cautiously walked in with a flashlight.Mikayla was watching from the outside. She pursed her lips and spoke hesitantly.“Nicole, this cave doesn’t have any cameras, so I don’t think it’s the place we’re looking for. Let’s not waste our efforts!”Her filming experience told her that places without cameras must not be important.Nicole walked ahead and said in a flat voice. “Then you can wait outside.”She did not force it.Nicole’s cameraman had already gone inside with her, leaving Mikayla with her cameraman outside.Mikayla frowned. Although she was extremely reluctant, she
Nicole looked a little surprised. Mikayla just looked very disappointed and wanted to blame Nicole for choosing the wrong path. However, due to Nicole’s identity and the viewers’ high opinion of Nicole, Mikayla chose to shut up. Instead, Mikayla comforted Nicole.“Since it’s a dead-end, we’d better turn back.”If it were not for Nicole’s insistence, they would not have come here, and Mikayla would not have twisted her ankle.Nicole frowned and studied the map. It did not feel right because there was only one path in this direction, which led to the cave.How could this be a dead-end?“If the map is right, then the exit must be in this cave.”Nicole said as she walked to the wall in front. She looked around and intended to move the rock.However, the boulder would not budge no matter how hard she tried.Nicole frowned tightly and looked around for clues. When she looked up, she noticed that the top was a dark and damp rock with a lot of moss growing on it.She swept her flashli
Nicole’s sharp eyes noticed the two parachutes stacked next to her. Nicole gritted her teeth and thought, ‘Fine, this is the last step anyway…’She reached over, carefully put on the safety harness, and helped the cameraman with his things.The sunlight was not blinding. The cold winds up top also blew in the right direction.Nicole took a deep breath, gritted her teeth, and jumped down. The cold wind slapping her face was painful, but she could not shout. Otherwise, her features would look distorted on camera, and she would look like a monster.‘Ugh! I really regret coming here!’The sound of the wind in her ears felt like it was amplified a dozen times. The air pressure affected her eardrums. Nicole tried to inch her parachute in the right direction.About ten minutes later, she felt her body being dragged down. Many people surrounded her.She finally landed safely.“Nikki, are you okay?”Nathaniel’s handsome yet irritating face appeared in front of Nicole’s eyes. He was wav
Nicole looked around and was secretly amazed that her mountain path earlier was right next to the sea, which was not even marked out on her map.It seemed like two worlds altogether.The rolling waves of the sea lapped on the shore. Nicole reached out to take Miles’ hand and got into the boat. She was still a bit traumatized by the sea.When she was on the island, she looked out into the sea every day and felt so hopeless. Those were the dark memories that she did not want to recall because she almost died there.Nicole looked at the map and was confused. This map of the sea was simply puzzling.Miles laughed heartily at the side, looking so devilishly charming.“Ms. Stanton, you don’t need to look at it. A layman won’t understand it.”Nicole put it away and looked up at him. “Then do you know the direction?”Miles raised his eyebrows. “Of course, but we’re not at the right place now. You’d better sit tight…”After he said that, the speedboat sped away. Nicole was almost throw
Nicole thought, ‘What kind of stupid show is this? Is their purpose to torture us?!’Miles picked up the diving equipment on the speedboat and put them on.Nicole was stunned. Miles looked at her and pondered for a moment.“Ms. Stanton, did you want to dive by yourself?”‘There’s no escape…’ Nicole smiled awkwardly. “I don’t know how to swim…”Miles was silent for a full ten seconds before he digested this fact.Nathaniel, a professional explorer, had praised Nicole like she was a god, but it turned out that she did not know how to swim?Nicole sat there blinking innocently. She also felt ashamed.Miles paused in his actions. “Then... Just wait for me up here.”Nicole nodded solemnly.Miles put on the wetsuit and dived into the sea so elegantly that he barely made a splash. He truly lived up to his god-like explorer status.After three to four minutes, there was no movement. The sea was calm and unusually eerie.Nicole began to feel anxious and apprehensive. ‘Nothing will h
