The Villain Mom Awakens — Going Viral by Parenting on a Reality Show-Chapter 398 - 400: My Taste Isn’t That Bad

Chelsea Raines, ever the slow-wit, opened her mouth and chuckled, "Mr. Bishop, you’ve really been working hard, serving food for all of us. But maybe my eyes are deceiving me, because it seems like you’re giving Ms. Kenway an especially large portion. I remember reading a gossip column once that actually said you two used to date. How ridiculous! These content farms will just make up anything these days without thinking! How could two people who have absolutely nothing to do with each other have ever dated?!"

After speaking, Chelsea Raines covered her mouth and laughed out loud.

When she finished laughing, she finally noticed the dead silence around her. Chelsea Raines quickly stifled her laughter.

It seemed she had made an inappropriate joke.

Jeanette Kensington’s expression was ghastly. She gripped the tablecloth tightly, her face filled with rage. She forced a smile and said, "Where did you read that? These content farms really don’t use their brains. They’ll just make up this kind of baseless nonsense to get clicks. No one would believe it!"

She stressed, "Everyone knows Caleb and I have always been deeply in love. We’ve been together for so long, and no one has ever come between us. Of course, I trust Caleb. I know that no matter who tries to seduce him, he will only ever love me. Those kinds of dirty tricks are completely useless."

Chelsea Raines touched her forehead, feeling extremely awkward. "Oh..."

"Good, as long as you know." Jeanette Kensington said this, but her gaze was fixed on Naomi Kenway.

"If you have something to say, say it. Why are you staring at me? If there’s something wrong with your eyes, go see a doctor. Staring at me won’t help; I’m not a physician." Naomi Kenway let out a soft chuckle and said casually, "You two don’t have much charm, but you sure have a lot of worries. Relax. My husband is so outstanding, I wouldn’t give a second glance to some ugly reject!"

As she spoke, Naomi Kenway leaned toward Ethan Shaw and intimately linked her arm with his.

Ethan Shaw gazed at Naomi’s profile and couldn’t help but chuckle softly. All his previous suspicions vanished, and he mentally chided himself for overthinking things.

Recalling what Naomi had just said, Ethan Shaw’s eyes grew even gentler. He reached out and gently embraced her.

[He’s so pleased! He’s definitely pleased! He can’t hide his smile after hearing his wife praise him!]

[Thank you, Jeanette Kensington, for letting me see my ship being so sweet!]

[AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Can you hold each other a little tighter?]

Caleb Bishop’s eyes darkened. He clenched his fists, holding back his anger.

Jeanette Kensington prized Caleb Bishop above all else. Hearing him insulted like this, she could barely contain her fury. "What did you just say?"

"I meant exactly what I said. At least I’m direct, unlike you, who insults people passive-aggressively and secretly rolls her eyes at them!"

"You..."

Caleb Bishop took her hand. "Alright, Jeanette, don’t be angry. We’re filming a show. I know Ms. Kenway didn’t mean it. It was just a joke, so don’t take it to heart."

"But I..."

Caleb Bishop poured her a glass of milk tea. "Alright, stop making a scene."

[That was a great clapback! I mean, Caleb Bishop is definitely handsome, but does Jeanette Kensington really need to guard him like he’s some precious treasure? And she’s always imagining that other women have designs on her boyfriend?]

[Why is Jeanette Kensington so boy-crazy? I love her when she’s shining on stage, not when she gets this triggered over a man.]

[Naomi Kenway is so aggressive when she talks.]

[You can’t blame Naomi for that, can you? Put yourself in her shoes. You’ve done nothing, and suddenly someone treats you like their rival, warns you, and rolls their eyes at you. Could you accept that? If you can, all I can say is you’re mentally tough! I couldn’t. I have a short temper, so I thought Naomi’s clapback was super satisfying!]

[Jeanette Kensington’s behavior is so bizarre. And her boyfriend is just as weird... His girlfriend is right there, so why can’t he just behave himself? I seriously doubt they’ve been together for ten years. Has Jeanette just been putting up with this for the past decade?] 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

[When is Chelsea Raines going to learn to control that big mouth of hers? One sentence caused all this drama. Doesn’t she know some jokes are off-limits? Does this woman have any EQ at all?]

[So, did they or didn’t they date? At first, I was sure they hadn’t, but now seeing their reactions, I’m not so sure. Could there be some secret history between them we don’t know about?]

[Jeanette Kensington is so worked up. Maybe they really did date, and their relationship now is just super awkward.]

...

Because of what had just happened, for a moment, no one at the table dared to speak. This was especially true for Chelsea Raines, who wished she could just bury her head in her bowl.

The tour guide, who walked in through the door flap, was completely unaware of the situation. He asked, "I trust everyone is well-rested?"

Naomi Kenway put down her chopsticks, a hint of a smile still on her face, especially when she saw the sullen Jeanette Kensington across from her.

"Since everyone is rested, please follow me for our next task—our highly anticipated old friend: choosing the houses," the tour guide announced.

The cast members filed out of the yurt one by one and gathered on the grassland.

"We have three new friends on our show, so I’ll explain this again. There’s a specific order for choosing houses. As for how that order is determined, that depends on the game’s rules..."

"This time, the rules are also very simple. We will split into groups for a three-round competition. The winner gets priority choice, and the rest will choose according to their ranking!"

Jeanette Kensington whispered a few words in Caleb Bishop’s ear, looking as if victory was already in her grasp.

"They haven’t even announced the challenges, and you’re already this confident?" Caleb Bishop asked.

"Of course," Jeanette Kensington said with a smile. "No matter what the competition is, I’ve never lost in my entire life."

Waving a small flag, the tour guide led the cast members to inspect the five yurts one by one.

The exteriors of the yurts looked similar, but once they lifted the flaps, they discovered huge differences in the interior decoration. Some yurts had a large floor area and were magnificently decorated, like House Number Four.

House Number Five was, once again, the most dilapidated one. The yurt contained only a few scattered pieces of furniture and didn’t even have a table.

Yurts Number One, Two, and Three were not very different from each other. Though not as luxurious as Number Four, they were fully furnished, and each had its own merits.

"We’ve now toured all five yurts. I’m sure you all have an idea of which one you’d like to live in. Next, I will explain the rules of the competition."

"The competition is divided into three rounds. The first is wrestling..."

As soon as the first event was announced, gasps of surprise erupted from the cast members, followed by a flurry of discussion.

The tour guide gave a helpless smile. "The second event is horse racing, and the third is painting."

The cast members arrived at a designated location where a spectacular wrestling match was already in progress.

"YEAH! GO! GO!" Cheers from the crowd were incessant.
