Stella had turned down the offer to appear on the Japanese variety show a few days ago.

    It wasn’t surprising.

    ''It’s so obvious they’re trying to pair me up with that actress.''@@@@

    There was no way she’d fall for something that transparent.

    Smiling sweetly, Stella had rejected the PD’s suggestion.

    Getting involved with that actress wouldn’t just be annoying for her—it would also irritate Asher Baldwin.

    Honestly, Stella still didn’t understand why Asher had come to Japan in the first place.

    "Are you sure you don’t want to reconsider?"

    "Hmm? Why? I said no."

    "I thought you were getting along with those actresses."

    "Not really."

    She never had any interest in getting closer to them.

    Stella still felt a sense of kinship with Seoyeon.

    There was something fundamentally similar about them.

    *****

    ''We have no one who can cook.''

    Seoyeon grew serious.

    Jo Seohui, Lee Jiyeon, and Goto Reika.

    None of them could cook.

    Seoyeon was probably the most capable one here—and that wasn’t saying much.

    Seohui, who had acted like a leader at first, completely crumbled when cooking became the issue.

    And Reika... Why was she even here?

    ''Is this just part of her “noblewoman” act?''

    “It’s not that scary once you’re actually there.”“Really?”“Yeah, it’s just a lot of trees.”
