Chapter 103

Odalys stared in surprise at the group of fans. She hadn't expected to have a fan send-off.

She emerged in baggy slacks and a black T-shirt, looking youthful and without a hat or mask. She'd assumed no one recognized her, realizing now she'd been careless.

"Why are you guys here so early? Have you had breakfast?" Odalys asked.

The airport was a 40-minute drive from the city, and these fans had clearly arrived well before her, waking up early to come.

"You're so kind!" someone screamed.

Odalys looked around the airport. "I'll be boarding soon. You don't have to follow me," she said. She turned to face the dozens of fans. "Don't leave the airport until eight o'clock," she added, then carried her bags forward.

The fans watched her hurry but didn't follow. They remained where they were, shouting, "Odalys, you're the best! We love you!"

One person said, "I didn't expect her to be even prettier than on the variety show. She doesn't put on any airs at all."

Another said, "She left in such a hurry. Does she despise us?"

Someone else wondered, "What did she mean by not leaving until eight o'clock?"

The fans lowered their voices, discussing amongst themselves. They wanted to follow but feared disturbing her, feeling confused and remaining where they were. Some continued live-streaming on their phones.

"Did you see that? That person just now was Odalys!" a fan said to the camera.

Just then, someone approached from the side. "You're all Odalys' fans, right?" he asked politely.

"You are?" the fans replied, puzzled.

He was wearing an apron, clearly a restaurant staff member. "Miss Odalys has already paid for your breakfast! She wanted you to come here, eat, and leave after eight o'clock," he explained, gesturing invitingly.

"Breakfast?" The fans were stunned, thinking they'd misheard.

"Miss Odalys ordered breakfast for each of you. This way, please," the staff member said.

The fans were speechless.

One person said, "So she was in a hurry to pay for this?"

Another asked, "Why can't we leave until after eight? Is something going to happen?"

Flattered, the fans chatted as they entered the shop, filling it to capacity and continuing their phone conversations. Some immediately posted photos on Twitter.

The live-streaming fan excitedly raised their phone. "Did you see that? Our idol is treating us to breakfast! How does it feel to be treated to a meal by a celebrity?"

They showed off excitedly, instantly filling the live stream with viewers.

Many Sophia fans immediately arrived, claiming Odalys was creating hype. Fans of Freya and Stellan joined the live stream, anxiously asking, "Have you seen Freya and Stellan?"

Lucian and Sophia's fans rushed in to scold Odalys: "(She's deliberately trying to be mysterious! What does she mean by leaving after eight o'clock? She's afraid that if the fans leave, people won't know that her fans have come to send her off. What a bitch!)"

Chapter 10

Before the variety show began, the live broadcast was immediately trending. People who'd followed the show before rushed in; everyone wanted to know what would happen at eight o'clock. Even the airport staff were nervous.

Odalys was unaware of this. She carried her luggage toward the gathering point, spotting a photographer approaching with cameras and the hostess stepping forward happily.

"Looks like our guess was right. The first guest to arrive is Odalys! Let us welcome Odalys!" the hostess announced, hugging her.

When the camera focused on her, Odalys finally noticed the live stream.

"Hello, everyone, I'm Odalys," she greeted the camera, setting down her luggage.

As she sat, she saw Freya and Selah running over with boxes. Before she could react, they hugged her.

"Odalys, I've missed you so much," Freya said, hugging her tightly.

Selah, equally enthusiastic, hugged her and said, "Odalys, I miss you too."

"Me too! I also want a hug," the hostess joked, hugging them all together.

Stellan, in black shorts, a colorful T-shirt, and a cap, stood to the side.

"I'm also here," Stellan said in a deep voice, causing immediate laughter in the live chat.

One person commented: "[Stellan is so funny.]"

Another said: "[Dude, just hug them all together.]"

The fans watched excitedly as Stellan sat on the luggage, arms crossed, looking at the girls and saying, "Hey, beautiful."

"Shut up," Freya said, covering his mouth.

The fans were delighted, rationally interpreting Freya's action; they didn't assume she was targeting Stellan.

"Looks like the members of Group B are very loving. After being separated for a few days, their relationship has deepened," the hostess quickly commented.

The fans bombarded the live chat with questions. The hostess was about to respond when she saw a tall woman in high heels, a long white dress, and exquisite makeup, walking toward them. Sophia wore sunglasses, accompanied by two bodyguards, exuding a powerful aura that drew many onlookers.

"Hello everyone. I'm Sophia. Nice to meet you again," Sophia smiled, removing her sunglasses to look at the camera, seemingly unaffected by the events on the deserted island.

Atlas stood behind her, looking unwell compared to Sophia's radiant appearance.

"Sorry, we were almost late," Finnian said, pushing his luggage forward and greeting everyone with a smile. He turned to the camera, adding, "It's an honor to continue participating in the variety show. I hope I can surprise everyone this time."

One person asked: "[Is this Finnian Lark? Why does it seem like he has lost weight in just a few days?]"

Another asked: "[Why do I feel like he has had plastic surgery? He doesn't look as good as before.]"

Someone else questioned: "[Am I the only one who thinks that Atlas and Finnian aren't in good condition? Did they do drugs?]"
