Chapter 480
[Ever since that witchy Bernice came into the picture, I gotta admit, Joana's starting to grow on me.]
[Ha! So, should Joana be thanking Bernice for making her look good?]
[Still not a fan of Bernice, but man, I'm actually missing Parrish and Larry.]
[More PDA, please!]
[Mr. Maddox, Mr. Maddox, cameras rolling, we're live!]
[Coming, coming, I'm here!]
[Matching outfits! Mr. Lampard and Astar are rocking their couple's tees without a care!]
[Their shirts are way too cute.]
[I got curious and snapped a pic to look up the shirts online. Seeing the price tag, I realized I'm not
worthy!]
[Is it a partner to wear matching outfits with that I’m lacking? No, it's the dough to buy them!]
When the live stream suddenly turned on, revealing Astrid and company on screen, the viewers went
wild with excitement.
The couple's attire was quite the spectacle. Astrid was in her usual garb, but someone had gone out of
their way to copy her look into a men's version just to match her. Voilà, couple's wear.
Joana hadn't gone far, backpack slung over her shoulders, before she started complaining, "Geez,
what did the production team pack in here? Why is it so heavy? Do I, a girl, have to lug around this
much weight? Don't they have a shred of chivalry?"
Maddox just gave her a look.
The production team was silent, leaving Joana red-faced and wishing she could sink into the ground.
Back at the screens, viewers were cracking up, [LMAO, I knew she'd pull some drama, but I didn't
expect her to start just five minutes in!]
[I just bet a buddy a pack of hot fries that Joana would start her antics within an hour. Guess I lost that
bet.]
[Here she goes again, same old shtick, same old Joana.]
[Actually, I'm not that annoyed by Joana anymore. That's just who she is, right? I mean, if the world's
got cool and stunning Astar, there's bound to be a drama queen like Joana... She's been like this since
the show started, probably that's just her real self.]
[Serenity Peaks can be pretty dangerous. Fans just hope Joana doesn't bite off more than she can
chew.]
The comments were flying fast and furious.
Meanwhile, Astrid and the others were in good spirits, chatting and laughing.
The group trekked deeper into the woods, where ancient trees soared to the heavens.
It was early spring, and the forest still held a chill, the air crisp and fresh after recent rains.
The loudest of the bunch, Parrish, was curious, "Astrid, I heard this mountain's got some bad juju. Did
you check it out?"
"Of course," Astrid replied, tapping around with a stick. "This place is even more treacherous than the
last spots we've been to. I hope everyone listens to Mr. Naylor. Don't wander off, don't touch what you
shouldn't, don't eat what you shouldn't."
Joana felt like Astrid's words were aimed at her.
But, considering she got herself into trouble last time for not heeding advice, she didn't dare retort.
Parrish asked, "So, is there anything edible around here?"
"You might find some wild mushrooms in these parts, but many of them are toxic. You can't just eat any This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
mushroom you find," Astrid explained, prodding a cluster of vibrant red mushrooms at the base of a
large tree with her stick. "See these? Bright colored, and no ant bites. That means they're not safe to
eat."
