Chapter 17
Lori had made a succulent roast beef from the meat he earned through his hard work, along with a plate of potato fries. He also whipped up a vegetable salad for their late–night snack, knowing the two girls were watching their weight.
Meanwhile, Camilla got back from out there and placed a little bucket filled with purple quid on the table.
Lori’s eyes sparkled with delight. “That’s blueberry wine, right?”
Camilla gave Lori a thumbs up. “Yeah, good eye, Lori!”
“Awesome. Where did you get it from?” Lori licked his lips.
Camilla smirked. “When I went to tutor Lucas, I spotted a huge pail of blueberry wine in his living room. His mom gave me some to bring back.”
*Nice one,” Lori yelled at the upstairs bedrooms. “The snacks are ready, princesses. Come down.”
The program team had brought a deck of cards for them to play.
After everyone was seated, Lori poured blueberry wine for each person..
“Drink up. This wine is great for lowering blood Epids and blood pressure. And it’s good for your skin and health.”
Maria took a small sip eagerly after hearing the benefits for the skin.
Freddy was quite himself again. With a smile on his face, he held poke cards in his hand and said, “Let’s play high and low. The one with the highest card wins. On the other hand, the loser gets punished.”
Maria said excitedly. “My luck is always good. Everyone’s secrets may be revealed tonight.”
Camilla grinned. “What a coincidence, my luck is good too. When you lose later, don’t choose the dare. You still owe me a headstand hair wash!”
Maria glared at Camilla and didn’t want to talk about it
They took turns drawing cards, officially starting their night.
In the first round, Camilla won with a 10 card, beating Henric who Had the lowest card.
Camilla covered her mouth dramatically, “Oops, sorry, Henric.” She looked at him mischievously. “Truth or dare?”
Henric pursed his lips and saw the gleam in the girl’s eyes. “Dare.”
“Great.” Camilla clapped her hands, “Please point the camera at Henric.”
Henric raised an eyebrow, feeling uneasy.
Camilla’s eyes twinkled mischievously as she said, “Henric, please make a heart shape with your hands in front of the camera and say ‘Rise and shine, baby, It’s a beautiful day!
Kate shivered. Henric was tough. Would he go for it?
Everyone except Camilla had the same thought,
Seeing Henric’s lack of action, Camilla urged him. “Come on, Henric. Hurry up”
Afraid that Camilla would offend Henric, Kata pulled her clothes and whispered. “Don’t be serious, Camilla.”
Maria looked slantwise at Camilla with a sneer, thinking she was too full of herself.

Cana binked her eyes at Henric.
Hentic sighed and said to the camera, “se and shine, baby. It’s a beautiful day!”
With her mouth agape, Kate stared at Henric in shock. Henric really did it?
Disbelief filled others‘ faces as they all gaped at the scene in surprise.
Camilla said, “Wow, Henric’s voice is so clear and pleasant.” She turned to the camera and said, “Henric’s two hundred million fans, I didn’t break my promise, did 12”
The channel was flooded with comments.
“Better late than never, thank you for the treat. Camilla, I love you!”
“Ah, I saved it. This will be my alarm clock from now on.”
“I don’t care about her scandals, this woman has my loyalty.”
“Henric’s voice is so charming, I’m swooning.
They started round 2 of Truth or Dare.
Maria laid out her card, a K for 13 points. She scanned the group and saw Camilla’s 2 points. Maria smirked at Camilla and said, “You’re the lowest, yo
you!
Camilla turned down the corners of her mouth. She didn’t wait for Maria to ask and said directly, “Truth.”
Maria asked, “Do you have a crush on anyone?”
Henric, who had been looking down, looked up at Camilla.
Maria added, “You can’t
Camilla rolled her eyes. She thought Maria would ask something trickier. Women really loved gossip.
Camilla firmly replied, “No.”
Freddy, sitting opposite Camilla, exclaimed, “How can that be? You obviously..”
He hesitated and stopped.
Camilla knew what Freddy wanted to say and sneered, “What are you so excited about? Don’t tell me you think i Eke you.
Do you really think you deserve my love?”
Freddy clenched his fists. He had been humiliated repeatedly in front of the national audience and he couldn’t take it anymore. After the show, he would make her pay for offending him
Maria questioned, “Camilla, are you too scared to play Truth or Dare?”
“Believe it or not,” Camilla lowered her head and ate the beef that Henric had picked for her.
In this tense atmosphere, Lori suddenly said, “The wine has a full flavor and a smooth texture. It’s delicious!”

Others were all speechless.
Everyone was playing the game seriously while Lori was enjoying the wine with his eyes closed.
They quickly began round 3.
Before the game started, Camilla glanced at Freddy. She picked up the deck of cards on the table and shuffled them skillfully.
“Let’s begin.” Camilla placed the cards in the center.
The loser drew the cards first.
Camilla had a Q for 12 points.
Henric got a 7.
Lori got a 10.
Freddy got a 3.
Maria got a 10.
Kate got a 6.
Camilla crossed her legs. She smirked at Freddy and said, “Make your choice.”
Freddy took a deep breath and said, “Dare.”
Camilla’s lips were like bloodstained daggers. Freddy didn’t dare to pick the truth. He chose dare instead, th crazy in front of the camera.
Camilla smiled wickedly as she got up and ran upstairs.
Everyone looked at each other, wondering what Camilla was up to,
When Camilla came back down, she was holding a heater.
Freddy’s face turned dark.
that Camilla wouldn’t do anything too
Camilla put the heater behind Freddy and turned it on. “You look a bit pale. Let me give you some warmth for half an hour,” she said, turning the heater up to the maximum setting.
Lori whispered, “Isn’t half an hour too long?”
Camilla shrugged. “Is it really that long? The room has air conditioning on. It won’t be too hot, right, Freddy?”
Freddy forced a smile and said coldly, “No, I’m not hot at all.”
The game went on.
Freddy looked at the lowest card in his hand, his temples pounding. He clenched his teeth and said, “I choose dare.”
Freddy would always choose dare when he lost. The more Camilla pranked him, the more the audience would hate her, If he acted pitifully, his fans would cyberbully her. Freddy felt slightly better when he thought about this.

Camilla threw out her card. “Call me dad,” she said.
Lori turned his head and spat out his drink all over Freddy’s face.
“Sorty, sorry,” Lari said, grabbing a tissue to wipe Lori’s face.
