Chapter 147
Eliana didn’t think that was likely. She sat on the sofa thoughtfully.
“Boom!” At this moment, a bolt of lighting struck outside.
Eliana turned her head to look, and said with a faint smile, “It’s raining and thundering outside. How sincere of you guys to bring us the cake at the risk of being struck by lightning”
Shane said. “Actually, when we came here just now, it wasn’t such a downpour
Eliana blinked but didn’t answer.
While Wendy went in bake another cake, the others had been waiting in the living room, which was quite boring.
Elana stood up first and went upstairs. “Owen, I’m going upstairs.”
“Okay,” Owen replied:
Cameron and the others followed Elana upstairs, and soon only Owen and Shane were left in the living room
Owen leaned back on the sofa, his arm casually resting on one side of the sofa.
After a moment of silence, Owen realized he didn’t have much to talk about with Shane. However, as the host, leaving his guest alone in the living room was rade.
Hence, he could only struggle to strike up a conversation about Shane’s studies. “You’re also studying at Isonstead University, right;”
Shane nodded. “Yes“:
“What’s your major”
“Weting, but I’m going to study abroad after next semester”
“You’re going to study abroad? That’s great”
Shane wanted to study abroad to get ahead
ckly. Owen knew Shine’s intention, but he didn’t show it.
Shane smiled and said politely, “I hope you can give me some advice when I come back
“You alter me. I’m sure there will be opportunities in the fiature.“””
Petroleum was essential to industry.
The Hall family’s business was completely different from Owen’s, but he couldn’t rule out the possibility of crossing paths with the future
Owen still had to show Shane some respect.
At this moment, the servant came to the rescue, “Mr. Davis, the phone is ringing upstairs.
“Okay. Please remain seated. I’ll go upstairs to answer the phone: Owen said.
Shane replied, “Okay, Hease go ahrad, Owen”
Owen got up and went straight upstairs.
Shane glanced at Owen’s retreating figure, then got up and left the living room, heading towards the kitchen.
Wendy had already put the cake lase into the oven.
When Wendy saw Shane, she lowered her voice and said, “Shane, is the rain getting heavier outside?”
“Yeah,” Shane replied.
Wendy smiled triumphantly. It seems that I guessed right.”
When they arrived, it wasn’t raining so heavily
h the Hall family in
Wendy was betting that the storm would intensify if they were to leave for their bungalow by then, it would be very dangerous.

Chapter 147
Out of respect for Howard, Owen probably wouldn’t let Wendy and Shane risk leaving the villa. They could justifiably stay at the villa then.
Although it was only one night, it was important
While the servant next to her wasn’t paying attention, Wendy quietly took out a null bottle of medicine hidden in her sleeve.
The small bottle of medicine was in pink packaging with a few ambiguous Estain words written on it. It was obviously some kind of recreational drug
Shane’s expression changed slightly when he saw the medicine. “Wendy, where did you get this?”
Wendy quietly stuffed the medicine back into her sleeve. “Shane, I found this in the bathroom on the bland”
“Whatt
Hannah used to have parties on the island frequently. There were no constraints or jurisdictions Here.
Therefore, they had wild fun here. Wendy might have found this bottle of aphrodisiac because the servants overlooked it.
Shane understood Wendy’s plan and immediately objected, “Wendy, don’t do this?
“Why?” Wendy asked.
“You want to make Owen fall in love with you, but there is no need to do it this way. Sleeping with him will not earn his respect. No man will like this kind of woman. As your brother, I don’t allow you to do this?
Wendy smiled as if mocking Shane’s naiveté.
“Shane, do you think I want to fall in love with him! This is just a transaction. This opportunity is hard to come by. I might not have a better chance in the future to get close to Owen. I must not let this opportunity slip.”
The entertaiment industry was a melting pot and Wendy had already seen through it
If one wanted to make a name for oneself is this world of fame and fortune, one could sacrifice some things for one’s ambition.
Those who were indecisive wouldn’t be able to achieve great things.
When Shane saw Wendy’s determination, his emotions were very complicated and tangled up. “Wendy, do you really have to take this step? Without Owen, there are other choices”
is the
Wendy said, “But for now, Owen is the best choice, Shane, you know how ugly those men on the rich list are. Owen is
Wendy would rather choose Owen than those men
Shane was speechless after hearing Wendy’s words. “Wendy, I just hope you won’t regret it”
“I won’t.”
“Alright.” Shane turned to leave the kitchen helplessly.
The aphrodisiac definitely couldn’t be added to the cake. Wendy would find other opportunities to get Owen to take it.
The weather was getting worse.
In the esports room, Eliana stood by the window, watching the storm outside.
She seemed to have guessed the reason for Wendy’s unusual behavior. She thought, “Could it be that Wendy has taken a fancy to Owen!
Eliana frowned. She had long known that the island’s collapse would not cause any harm to Wendy and Shane.
In her previous life, Wendy successfully debuted and became a high–profile movie celebrity
It was destined then that she and Shane would be saved before the island accident.
However, Eliana didn’t expect Owen to be the one to save them.
Wendy must be up to something by offering her favors, and this scheme was likely aimed at Owen.
The thought of Wendy using dirty tricks to g get Owen involved disgusted Eliana. She wouldn’t let Wendy get her way.
At this moment, Cameron walked to Eliana’s side. “You’ve been looking side since you came in What’s so interesting out there?”

Eliana turned around, leaned against the wall, and said softly. “I wasn’t looking outside, I was thinking about something”
Thinking about what the Hall siblings are up tof
Eliana was lost for words. She glanced at him. “How did you know!”
Cameron smiled slightly “Did I guess i

“You got part of it right”
Cameron Jeaned against the other side of the window, mirroring her posture, and said slowly. “If I were them, I would try to befriend Owen so that

“Of course, it would be even better if I could make Owen fall in love with me. Even if that wasn’t possible, I would find a way to sleep couldn’t miss this good opportunity.”
Eliana’s guess was based on the known events of her previous life…
Cameron, on the other hand, had discerned Wendy’s plan. Owen was the Hall siblings‘ target.
