Rebirth of a Lopped Actress: Career First, Love Second
Chapter 254: Did You Let Her Win for Looks?
โTry it yourselves,โ Felix said, pulling the blankets off the beds and stepping aside.
Whitney and Jocelyn were on the verge of tears. Since entering showbiz, they had never been treated so harshly. Yet, Felixโs fierce expression left them too intimidated to protest.
The two clumsily tried to mimic Felixโs movements, attempting to fold the blankets. But after a long struggle, a neatly folded, sharp-cornered blanket? That was out of the question!
Felixโs scowl deepened as he inspected their work. โWhat kind of mess is this?โ
The two girls shrank back, trembling under his glare.
Pleased by their reaction, Felix turned his attention to Olivia, expecting to find her struggling. Instead, she was sitting serenely on her bed, looking completely unfazed.
Felixโs mood soured further. โWho told you to sit down? Have you folded your blanket yetโฆ?โ
Before he could finish, Olivia gestured to the foot of her bed, where her blanket sat, flawlessly folded and perfectly aligned.
Felix froze, confused. He was certain he had pulled her blanket apart earlier.
Convinced he had made a mistake, Felix walked over and ripped the blanket open again. โCheating wonโt help you here. Even if you get away with it today, you canโt fake it every day. Fold it yourself.โ
The visual jockey who had been recording the scene said hesitantly, โUh, that blanket was folded by Olivia earlier.โ
Felix remained skeptical, but Olivia didnโt argue. Calmly, she refolded the blanket in front of him with precise, swift movements.
Felix stood there, stunned. How does a celebrity know how to fold a military blanket so perfectly?
Felix had planned to push the pampered stars to their limits, hoping to make them quit early. Folding a military blanket was supposed to be a nearly impossible task for newcomers. Yet Olivia had done it flawlessly, leaving no room for critique.
โOlivia! Youโre amazing! Can you teach me?โ Whitney asked, her face lighting up with admiration. To her, Olivia could do anything.
Without hesitation, Olivia patiently guided Whitney and Jocelyn step by step, teaching them how to fold perfectly square, military-style blankets.
Felixโs face grew darker as he watched the three getting along. His plan to intimidate and frustrate them had completely backfired.
โHurry up. In twenty minutes, be at the training ground to join the freshmenโs drills,โ Felix barked before storming off, unwilling to linger any longer.
Twenty minutes later, at ten in the morning, under the scorching sunโฆ Kyson, dressed in uniform, led a group of first-year cadets along with Shawn to the training ground. Whenโฆ
โSo thatโs Olivia? Sheโs stunning. Be honest, did you guys go easy on her during the show because of her looks?โ the boy teased. Having seen Kysonโs humiliating defeat on the program, he was eager to know more about Olivia.
โShut up! Youโre the one taken by her looks!โ Kyson snapped, his mouth twitching at the memory. His glare toward Olivia was fiery.
โLooks like you suffered. But I heard Felix is leading their group this time. Felix absolutely hates anything from the entertainment world. This morning, when he was assigned to the celebrities, he was so furious he almost brought the roof down. I bet Oliviaโs team is in for a rough time.โ
