Chapter 859
[ 642 words ]
His sister, Willow Quinn, was ten years younger than him. She had studied abroad and was known for a fiery personality and a tongue so sharp she’d probably curse out a passing dog.
The second pair was the popular singer, Jasper Sutton, twenty-five. His sister, Jiana Sutton, had just graduated from college. Her greatest ambition in life was supposedly to live off her parents and coast indefinitely. In a fit of anger, her parents had kicked her out. To survive, Jiana signed up for the reality show, planning to earn enough money to go right back to her carefree lifestyle.
The third pair featured another well-regarded actor from the entertainment industry: Brant Jernigan, twenty-three. Joining him was his twin sister, Sabine Jernigan. They came from a prominent and powerful family. Brant was working hard as an actor because if he didn’t make it, he’d have to go home and inherit their billion-dollar fortune. His sister was on the show purely because she was a fan of so many celebrities and saw it as a prime opportunity to meet them.
The cast of guests seemed to have wildly different personalities, which promised to be interesting. You had to admit, Miranda had a real knack for casting.
As Juniper scrolled further, she suddenly came across Yolanda’s profile.
“Eclara City socialite, a gifted student from Eclara University, accomplished in the fine arts. Her favorite pastime is reading in her cozy bed on rainy days…”
The description went on and on. It was so cringey that Juniper felt her toes curl hard enough to dig a new basement. She couldn’t bring herself to read the rest and moved on to the profile of her partner. The man playing her “brother” was Yates Garner, a popular young star who had risen to fame on a talent show.
This series would be filmed and broadcast live, with no script and no editing, all under the banner of “authenticity.” Because of this, the show had been generating massive buzz since its official announcement.
Juniper looked away from the press conference and opened Twitter on her phone. Several hashtags were trending. The top one wasn’t about Miranda, but about Shanley.
#Got To Support My Mother-In-Law’s Show
“Did you guys see Shanley at the Eclara University opening ceremony? I could see his pecs through his shirt! OMG, so hot I could just die.”
“Too bad he doesn’t have a sister. If he were on the show himself, no other show would stand a chance.”
“Can we please focus on Director Miranda herself? You guys are making everyone’s minds go to the gutter.”
“Exactly! Where’s the decency? Where’s the morality? And where can I get Mr. Schwartz’s number?”
“Do you think Director Miranda created this show to find a wife for Shanley? All the sisters are young and from good families.”
“Sisters? Is it possible the brothers are also being auditioned?”
“*covers mouth*.jpeg. You’re brave for saying that out loud! Don’t you value your life?!”
“Now that you mention it, that makes it even more exciting!”
The further Juniper scrolled, the more outrageous the comments became, so she finally just turned off her phone. She sat leisurely. her chair, swinging her legs and munching on a snack. After the guests left the stage, Juniper clapped her hands and stood up, ready to leave.
“Young lady,” the assistant director called out, hurrying after her with an
eager fawning smile. “You must
have a special
ationship with
Director Miranda, don’t you?”
“Hmm?” Juniper stopped and raised an eyebrow, slowly turning to look at him.
“I noticed she was especially
attentive to you,” the director
explained “Director Miranda is
usually very strict. ve hardly ever
seen her smile.” But just now..
watching her, she was grinning from ear to ear.
*Assistant director?* Juniper glanced down at his name tag, a flicker of something dark in her eyes. “My relationship with her?”
Juniper beckoned with her finger. The assistant director, his curiosity piqued, leaned
in closer as she spoke slowly, her eyes narrowed.
“My relationship with her is…”
