CHAPTER 352
At this moment, Jason finally broke the silence, his voice calm yet carrying that firm edge his friend had come to know too well.“Hope you understand now what’s at stake,” Jason said steadily. “I’ve already told you, just allow me to do my thing. I’m not going to get any scratches. I’m not going to get any hits on myself. That’s the only way Soma is going to leave us alone about this, and I’ll make sure of it.”The determination in Jason’s voice was undeniable. There was no trace of hesitation, no sign that he was bluffing. His friend could hear it Jason had already made up his mind.Hearing that, his friend’s shoulders slumped slightly. He couldn’t even argue anymore. There was no point. He just nodded his head slowly, even though Jason couldn’t see him over the phone. Deep down, though, he knew the truth: what Jason was saying was almost impossible. He knew tomorrow wouldn’t be as simple as Jason made it sound.He really believes this… his friend thought quietly. But how am I even
CHAPTER 351
At that moment, Jason's friend sighed again and continued talking, his voice now lower and more thoughtful, like someone who had been carrying a secret for too long and was finally letting it out.“Jason, to be honest, I didn’t even want to say this before, but... Soma actually warned me,” he said seriously. “Even that day she left the house, she personally called me. She didn’t text she called. And she was so serious.”Jason raised an eyebrow but said nothing, just listening.His friend continued, “She told me that if I really cared about you if I truly considered myself your friend I should never, ever let you participate in this competition. She said, and I quote, ‘If Jason is your friend, protect him. If you can’t, then don’t call yourself his friend.’”Jason’s expression changed. He wasn’t shocked exactly, but hearing it from someone else still made him feel strange inside.“And that’s not even all,” his friend added, his voice tight now. “She told me straight up ,that if she eve
CHAPTER 350
At that moment, when Jason glanced at his phone screen and saw who was calling, he sighed lightly. He had half-hoped it would be Camilla, but it wasn’t. Instead, it was one of his close friends, and without wasting any more time, Jason picked up the call, his voice low and calm.“What’s going on?” he asked casually, resting his back against the headboard of his bed.On the other end of the line, his friend chuckled a little, his voice light and playful. “Ah, Jason, I hope you haven’t forgotten about the competition we both went to register for?”Jason’s brows pulled together slightly. “Competition?”His friend laughed, already expecting Jason’s confusion. “Yes now! That tech and innovation challenge we signed up for. It’s tomorrow, remember? I just said let me call and remind you before you claim nobody told you.”At that moment, Jason paused, his mind pulling back the memory, and then it struck him. He sat up a little straighter, a small expression of realization crossing his face. H
CHAPTER 349
Still hearing her friend’s excited voice through the phone, Camilla stood there, motionless, her jaw tightened so hard it felt like her teeth could crack. Water was still dripping from her hair down her shoulders, but she didn’t even care. She just stood still, her face hard, her eyes blank but burning with irritation.She wasn’t expecting this call. Not at all. She didn’t need it. The only call she had been desperately waiting for was Jason’s. She had hoped, even imagined, that it was finally him, calling to apologize, calling to make things right after the mess that happened yesterday. She thought maybe he had thought about her overnight, realized his mistake, and decided to reach out.But no, Instead, it was her friend. The last person she wanted to hear from this early. And what was she talking about? Shopping. Shopping, of all things.Camilla swallowed hard, her grip on the phone tightening. She could feel the heat rising in her chest, the kind of frustration that made her want t
CHAPTER 348
At that moment, Jason looked at Soma, watching how she sat quietly, still bothered, her eyes staring down at her hands. He knew she was overthinking everything, and deep down, he couldn’t blame her everything was happening too fast. But he also knew she needed to hear the truth again, clearly, without sugarcoating.So he leaned forward a little, his voice calm and steady. “Soma, like I said before, yes, you’re going to be living like a celebrity now, but that doesn’t mean you’re going to get the same crazy level of attention that those big celebrities get every single day.”He paused, making sure she was listening, then continued, “The only reason this whole thing is so hot right now is because you’re the first person Pasumika Zoo has ever showed on their social media page. Think about it the very first livestream they did, and you were the face they showed. People are curious. They want to know who you are, what makes you special, why it was you.”Jason smiled faintly, shaking his he
CHAPTER 347
At that moment, before the car could even move, the crowd had already surrounded it. They rushed to the windows, pressing their hands and faces against the glass, trying to peek inside. Even though the windows were tinted dark, and they couldn’t see anything, they knew someone had just entered the car.Some of them started shouting from outside, their voices loud and impatient. “Please! Someone should say something! Just one or two words! Who are you? Where are you from?”They didn’t want much — just a word, a sign, anything to confirm it was really her. Some even begged for advice or a quick interview, even if it was just a few seconds.Then, one of the men in the crowd moved forward, standing boldly in front of the car. He raised his hand like he was about to speak, his mouth opening, but no words came out. He tried again, but it was clear — he didn’t know what to say anymore. Maybe the excitement was too much, or maybe he felt embarrassed.Inside the car, Jason watched him quietly
