Chapter 145
Chapter 145 Bethany quickly responded to her and made arrangements. On the set, a group of people chattered as they boarded the bus.
The lake’s surface shimmered with gentle ripples, reflecting the sunlight, and the leaves on the lakeside trees rustled softly, adding a touch of charm to the tranquil scene.
The facilitators gathered all the participants and divided them into six teams for the rowing competition. One participant, Isme Jenner, stepped onto the boat and eventually chose a seat behind a wealthy heiress, Yvonne Fisher.
As the referee blew the whistle, the two boats raced forward. Since most participants had little rowing experience, the small boats wobbled and rocked, accompanied by screams and laughter. The show’s effect was impressive, and the atmosphere was lively.
The wind on the lake gradually picked up, causing the already unstable boats to sway more violently. In an area not caught by the cameras, a sudden splash echoed.
“Ah! Help!”
Yvonne had fallen into the water!
Panicked, she flailed in the water, screaming, “Someone help! I’m going to drown!”
The others on the boat were caught off guard by the unexpected fall and grew frantic,
shouting for help. Fortunately, the lifeguards were not far from the shore. Upon hearing the cries for help, they immediately swam over and rescued the drenched Yvonne.
By this time, filming had paused.
Yvonne wiped her face and angrily vented, “What’s wrong with your venue? What if something happened to me today? Can you afford the consequences?”
The lead facilitator, Mira, hurriedly checked her condition, sighing in relief once she confirmed that Yvonne was fine.
Yvonne then turned her anger toward Mira. “Why would you hold such an outdoor event? Look at the embarrassment you’ve caused me! Your film crew is also responsible for this!”
Feeling at fault, Ben remained silent, allowing Yvonne to vent her frustration. Someone in the crowd watched the spectacle unfold and swiftly sent a message, reporting the task as completed.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Due to the blind spot in the surveillance area and the turbulent rocking of the boat, the following camera crew failed to capture the incident at the stern, and nobody noticed what happened, including Yvonne herself.
“You and your show are to blame for this mishap in the lakeside area! | won't let this go easily! Get ready for the incident to be exposed!” Yvonne spat out these words with bitterness before orming in of the area
Mha and Ten changed worried plances, insure of what to do. They both understood Yvoume’s background well. Whether her claims were true or not, if they caught on and cruded, causing a wave of public bacdash, it would undoubtedly impact Angle Group and the
show “Whe, should we do now?” Mira was anxious. “If she exposes this incident, our salary will surely be deducted!” *What else can we do? Let’s find Ms. Sheena first!” Ben made a quick decision, taking out his phone and dialing Sheena’s
number.
“An accident?” After listening to Ben’s report, Sheena frowned but quickly assured Ben, “I reviewed the application thoroughly when you submitted it. The safety measures at the venue were well in place. It’s unlikely such an incident would happen easily. Don’t worry. Continue the filming arrangements as usual, and I'll handle this matter.”
Ben breathed a sigh of relief, hushed the murmurs among the trainees, and brought them back to the set.
The accident interrupted the outdoor shoot, so he had to swiftly plan new content, recording the next episode before the following week’s broadcast.
Sheena put aside her current work to address this issue. She immediately summoned Wendy and tasked her with arranging for the staff to reinspect the safety facilities.
“Yes, Ms. Sheena.” However, Wendy did not move immediately, standing there and seemingly hesitant to say something. Still immersed in her work, Sheena asked Wendy without looking up, “Is there something else?
“Ms. Sheena, the participant who fell into the water has already posted about the accident. She’s claiming that our company’s safety/measures were inadequate and is demanding compensation!”
Finally lifting her head, Sheena smirked. “Give me the phone.”
