Chapter 62 Hit by Lloyd Instantly
Survival Game had not been publicized and had no notices in advance and gimmicks in the early period.
The next day when Fairy Island was in the can, Ebony just parted from the crew. Then Dolores called her to attend Survival Game at once.
Ebony was a bit surprised. "So hurry?"
Dolores said, "I don't know either. The program team said that the rainy season may be earlier this year, so they advanced the recording."
"They also distinguish dry season and rainy season, which are quite professional," Ebony said. "Fine. You tell me the phone number of the program team and I will contact them myself."
Ebony negotiated with the program team about plane ticket and time.
In the Gibson family in Sluvale, Roxanne urged the servants to pack luggage. When she saw Lorena who was eating grapes on the sofa, she said unpleasantly, "Why do you want to attend the variety show? Survival Game, it sounds dangerous. If you really want to debut, just ask your father to invest in a TV show and you star in it."
Lorena swallowed the grape and said with a smile, "Mom, it is not dangerous. We just go to the wild like camping. Victor will also attend this show. Don't you believe him?"
Roxanne frowned. "Him? What is him?"
Roxanne said, "The Torres family has already been broken. Victor, once the inheritor of the Torres Group, is forced to be a star to pay off their debts. How pity! You deserve better than him. Why do you still consort with him?"
"Mom--" Lorena said unhappily. "Don't look down on Victor. I believe that he will succeed. If he can become a top star like Mr. Vasquez, isn't that also a kind of success?"
"Just him?" Roxanne said dismissively.
Lorena took Roxanne's arm and coaxed her for a while.
Roxanne was helpless but soft-hearted. Seeing that the servants had already put the entire luggage downstairs, she gave them an order. "You take Lorena to the airport and accompany her. Take good care of Lorena along the way. If she was hurt a bit, I would kill you!"
The first episode of Survival Game would be initially recorded in Prastonl.
When Ebony got the plane ticket given by the program team, she felt very odd.
The variety show would be recorded abroad. It must cost a lot. But why didn't it gain any popularity in the previous period?
As soon as Ebony got on the plane, she started to sleep.
And while she was sleeping, at the headquarters of the Gibson Group in Merrica, Carlton was working hard. Then he received a call.
A female asked, "Lloyd has an affair with another woman?"
Carlton glanced at the caller ID and was stunned for a moment. Then he said, "Kelly, don't talk nonsense!"
"Hum." Kelly said with hostility, "You know whether it is nonsense. You're so fascinated by her beauty that you even want to protect aunt's rival in love? Her name is Ebony Gibson, right? And she's gonna attend a variety show called Survival Game?"
"Kelly, what do you want to do? You are a soldier. Don't mess around!" Carlton became nervous.
Kelly said, "I won't mess around, but we must teach her a lesson. Coincidentally, I'll participate in that show too."
"What the hell. You are a soldier. Why do you participate in a variety show?"
"That's not a variety show but a jungle adventure show. It was originally a militarized project undertaken by the government. At first, it was planned to be a documentary. Later, because of the high cost and loss of the documentary, it was changed into a variety show. So they invited stars. In fact, in this show, soldiers are the real protagonists and stars are only used to attract sponsorship and investment!"
"But it is so predestinated that I can meet her. I will cherish this opportunity and see her in person!" Kelly added.
"Kelly, I warn you. Don't... hey... hey..."
Kelly already hung up.
Carlton slammed down his phone and ruffled his hair irritably!
After thinking for a while, he made another call.
The phone was quickly answered. A man said in a rough voice, "Carlton, what's up?"
"Tristan, are you still carrying out your mission?"
Tristan was shocked and then replied. "No. I already finished my last mission. It's rest time now. What's wrong?"
"Your younger sister's going to cause trouble."
"My younger sister? Kelly? What's wrong with her?"
Carlton explained the whole matter.
Tristan shouted violently. "What? Someone stole our aunt's man?"
Carlton was speechless. "That's not the point. She didn't steal our aunt's man. But the crazy Kelly is gonna trouble her! "
"Fine. Fine. I see. I'll make a report now and attend that show with her. But Carlton, are you sure that the woman doesn't have an affair with Lloyd?"
Carlton was in silence. He wasn't uncertain about it. That day when he just told Lloyd that he liked Ebony, he was immediately bit by Lloyd.
But...
Carlton shouted. "Anyway. She cannot have any accident!" Then he hung up the phone with a sense of guilt.
In the single-person dormitory of the army thousands of miles away, Tristan looked at the phone that had been hung up and became more and more upset. Finally he called Lloyd.
He wanted to know it from Lloyd!
When Ebony came out of the airport, she saw the worker of the program team waiting at the pick-up port.
The big sign held high by the worker said "Ebony Gibson".
Ebony walked over there. The worker glanced at her and then continued to hold the sign high.
Ebony was astonished. She thought that wasn't the worker the person who would pick her up?
She asked uncertainly, "Are you a worker of Survival Game?"
The worker was surprised and said embarrassedly, "Are you Miss Gibson?"
Ebony nodded sadly. "It's me."
Ebony heard that the staff admired her very much. After watching her video that showed her knife skills, they instantly invited her. Why couldn't the worker recognize her?
The worker hurriedly said, "The car parks outside. Now we should join others first."
Ebony aggrievedly followed the worker out of the airport. She saw a dirty small off-road vehicle parking outside.
As soon as she got in the car, she felt something strange. The car looked nothing special from the outside, but it's all militarized inside.
There was even a military walkie-talkie next to the driver's seat.
Ebony stared at the walkie-talkie and frowned.
The worker got into the driver's seat and noticed her gaze. Then the worker put the walkie-talkie into the trunk of the car and started the car.
An hour later, they arrived at their destination--a temporary camp in the wilderness.
Ebony looked at the soldiers in military uniforms walking around and felt puzzled.
The worker took Ebony to a tent. There were already six or seven people in it.
Ebony swept them one by one. They were all unpopular stars, the kind that their names couldn't be called out.
It's no wonder why this show could not gain popularity in the previous period.
"One, two, three, four..." The worker who brought Ebony in counted them and then said, "There should be 10 stars in total. There are still 3 to come. When all the stars are here, someone will tell you what to do. You can rest now."
Then he left.
Ebony stood at the entrance of the tent. She sometimes looked out and then looked round the tent. Finally the stars stared at each other.
