“Wow, this is Amazing Gracel”
*The wild child can play Amazing Gracel Incredible!”
She played it well, but is it really appropriate to play it in the mountains?”
This woman is so funny. I want to follow her!”
After the song ended, Camilla looked proudly at Henric and said, “This is my masterpiece, isn’t it amazing?
Henric nodded, “Beautiful sound.”
She raised her chin, “Of course, it’s a s
a song I’ve been listening to since I was a kid. I can mail it even if I play it backwards.”
Henric’s dark eyes flashed with a hint of doubt, “Since you were a kid?”
Camilla blinked her gorgeous, clear eyes, “Whenever I used my mom’s paint to decorate our house, she would make me listen to Amazing Grace a hundred times. And whenever I used the paintings she just finished to wipe my butt, she would also make me listen to it a thousand times.”
“Now my mom still makes me listen to Amazing Grace as often as possible, saying it can erase my sins.”
Henric’s expression was complex, not sure who to pity more.
Back at the dormitory, Kate and Lori were there. While Camilla was washing her face, she asked, “Where are the mutts…buddies?”
Kate told Camilla about their situation.
Camilla couldn’t hide her joy, “So they’re in the hospital now?”
“Yeah, Maria was stung on the hand, not too bad, but Freddy was stung multiple times on the head, it’s more serious,” Kato said.
Camilla happily whistled, “I suppose turnabout is fair play. It seems even wasps know who to sting the hardest.”
She wanted to hear more details, but her collar was tugged. She didn’t need to look to know who it was, only Henric dared to treat her like this.
“Henric, why are you pulling my collar again?” Camilla pouted, annoyed.
Henric sighed, his voice softening, “Your hair and pants.
nts are wet, it wouldn’t hurt to go upstairs and freshen up first before you chat.”
Okay, I get it.” Camilla broke free and ran upstairs in a huff.
Only Henric and Camilla completed the mission. Camilla successfully received the luxury package.
At first, Camilla suspected that the program team might have set a trap, but when she saw the lavish meal, she shouted to the director, “Thank you, Ned, for the luxury meal. I love you!”
“Hmph,” Ned turned his face away.
To celebrate their success and support each other through hard times, Camilla invited Kate and Lorite join her for the great meal.
Lon cooked up a dish of fresh boletus that they had picked together.
Camilla stuffed his mouth with mushroom and exclaimed, “This is awesome, so yummy!”

After dinner, since two of the six guests were in the hospital, Ned gave everyone a break, but the live stream went on as usual.
Camilla felt a bit tired and weak, so she said goodbye to everyone and went upstairs to rest.
Three hours later, Kate knocked on the door of the guys‘ dorm, anxiously saying, “Hentle, Camilla has a fever, and she’s burning up.”
A few seconds later, the door opened, and Henric followed Kate upstairs.
On the bed, Camilla’s face was pale, and her eyebrows were tightly knit.
Henric picked up Camilla and said to Kate, “Go find Ned and tell him to get a car?
“Okay” Kate replied.
Camilla opened her heavy eyelids weakly and asked, “Where are we going? I want to sleep”
Henric replied, “You have a fever, and we’re taking you to the hospital.”
Lori quickly put on his clothes and was shocked when he saw Camilla’s pale face. “She was lively and jumping around during lunch. How did she get a
The program team borrowed a seven–seater car from the villagers, with Lori driving, Kate sitting in the front seat, and Henric and Camilla in the back, along with the cameraman who was squeezed in the comer.
“Is that Camilla that the richest man just carried? What happened to her?”
“I don’t know. She seemed fine when she went upstairs.”
“It couldn’t be that the mushroom they had for lunch wasn’t cooked and they got food poisoning, could it?”
“That’s unlikely. If that were the case, everyone would be sick.”
At the entrance of the town hospital, Camilla insisted on walking by herself.
She said, “Henric, I can walk on my own. I’m not that fussy. I’m just running a fever, not disabled.”
Henric had no choice but to let her down.
The two people who were stung by wasps were also in this hospital. With Henric accompanying Camilla, Lori and Kate went to see Maria and Freddy.
Camilla lay on the hospital bed, looking at the IV above her lead. “I can’t remember when I last had a fever.”
Henric handed her a cup of water and said, “Drink more water,”
“Thank you” After drinking the water, Camilla looked at Henric and remembered some flashes from last night. Since there was no cameraman around and they were in a private room, she asked, “Did you ask me what my third brother’s name is last night?”
Henric raised his eyebrows.
“Oh, you remembered?”
Camilla shook her head. “No, just remember fome bits and pieces. Now that I think about it, your reaction was a bit weird. Do you know Ryan?”
Henric smiled and said, “Yes, I do. He even badmouthed you in front of me
“Hmph, I’ll beat him up next time I see him. You guys actually know each other. When you first mot me, did you recognize me as his sister?”

Henric shook his head. “Ryan never showed me your photo, and he never mentioned your name, in front of me, he always called you by…“He paused for a moment. “The nickname he used might piss you off if I say it,
With a casual wave of her hand, Camilla said, “Thave plenty of nicknames, so go ahead and give me another one. One more won’t make a difference, and one less won’t matter.
Henric replied, “Troublemaker.”
Camilla’s expression froze for a moment.
She knew it wasn’t a good name.
“Dung Beetle, once I get my hands on my phone, I’ll make him regret it,” she said.
Henric felt helpless.
“Where did Ryan ga?” Henric asked, referring to the red exclamation mark on WhatsApp
“Who knows where he’s run off to now? You have his WhatsApp, why don’t you ask him?” Camilla replied.
Henric said calmly, “He’s blocked me.”
“Did you lend him money?” Camilla guessed correctly, seeing Henric’s surprised expression.
Camilla covered her mouth and chuckled, “That’s his usual trick. How much did you lend him?”
Henric held up his hands to show 7.
“7 hundred dollars?” Camilla asked,
Henric shook his head.
“7 thousand dollars?” Camilla guessed again.
Henric shook his head again.
Camilla took a deep breath. “70 thousand dollars?”
Henric replied directly, “700 thousand dollars.”
Camilla gasped, “You’re a fool with too much money,” her eyes darting around Henric’s body, her mouth curling up. “Hey, why don’t you lend me 700 thousand dollars? I’ll pay you back in 200 years.”
Henric was silent.
“How about you help Ryan repay 700 thousand dollars first, and then I’ll lend it to you?” Henric said nonchalantly.
Camilla sobbed and said, “You are a stunningly handsome man, Henric. No one in the world can compare to your good looks and charm. Don’t treat me like that. Do I look like I have any money? I live in a small apartment and eat cheap instant noodle. If it weren’t for this show, I’d be drinking tap water to
survive.
“700 thousand dollars! Even if I sold my soul, I still couldn’t repay it. If ryan can’t repay the money, I’ll have Emma introduce him to some rich women. He’s good–looking enough to make a profit from that.”
Henric rubbed his forehead. These siblings were truly odd.
