The Unstoppable Comeback Of the Unrivaled Ex-Wife-Chapter 680

"Haha! Skylar, you’re too much!" Everyone burst out laughing.

Adam could only sigh because this was exactly what he was afraid of.

Only Santiago could compete with a big shot like Ethan, and the other guests would eventually just fade into the background.

Additionally, the show’s direction would have to change according to what Ethan wanted, and Adam had a feeling that he and the crew were in for a tough time.

He would definitely face backlash from netizens if the show changed too much.

Adam’s head began to hurt at the thought of it.

Ethan glanced at the silent Clara and smiled charmingly.

"Can I call dibs on the woman I’m interested in then?" "Wow, it looks like Mr.

Stuart came here to capture his target! I’m looking forward to it!" Megan giggled, trying to get on Ethan’s good side.

She was the most popular female star in the show for a reason, and she sensibly decided to befriend Ethan once she realized he was pursuing someone already.

"I wouldn’t join something I can’t win at.

I’ll definitely get what I want by the end of this show," Ethan murmured, staring at Clara intently.

Everyone immediately knew then that Ethan’s target was Clara.

"You’ve got great instincts, Mr.

Stuart— Miss Blackwell suits you best out of all the female guests here.

Both of your families are a part of the Great Eight of the City, plus, you guys are of the same age and have known each other since childhood.

It’s a match made in heaven! The show hasn’t even started, but I’m already invested in you both as a couple," Hugh, the actuary, said with a smile.

"You can’t say that! The possibilities are endless since it’s a reality dating show.

You might like someone in the beginning, but that might change as you spend time with other people.

Nothing is fixed right now," Adam said desperately, trying to get the show back on track.

If everyone set their sights on someone from the very start, the show couldn’t progress the way he wanted it to.

"You’re right, Mr.Jiminez. And I’m curious too... Miss Blackwell, is there anyone here who’s caught your eye?" Ethan asked Clara with a mischievous smile.

Clara finally looked up at Ethan and said firmly, "Isn’t it obvious? Of course it’s my idol, Mr.Dalton...

He’ll always be my only choice.

W The conference room immediately became silent, and the atmosphere became awkward.

Ethan and Clara were both very passionate and direct, but unfortunately, they were interested in different people.

Clearly, Clara didn’t return Ethan’s affections, and had no issue with humiliating him because of it.

Everyone looked at him anxiously, expecting him to fly into a rage since he was rumored to have a bad temper.

Usually, nobody would dare to provoke him.

However, Ethan didn’t seem angry at all; on the contrary, he broke into a wide smile.

’’What a coincidence... I do love a challenge! I’m sure you’ll change your mind once the show is over, Miss Blackwell." "Wow, Mr.Stuart is getting competitive! The other guests had better think of some strategies, or else they’ll get left behind." The staff had started taking sides too, hoping to please Ethan.

The highlight of the show had now become Ethan and Clara’s game of cat and mouse, and everyone was certain that the mouse would never be able to outrun the cat.

Ethan’s sudden participation in the show unsettled Clara, and she even felt like withdrawing from the show.

Santiago noticed Clara’s discomfort, and leaned in to whisper in her ear, ’’Do you want to leave? I can run away with you if you want to." "Yes, I do... but Mr. Jiminez will kill us if we do. Plus..." Looking up at him, Clara said shyly, ’’I don’t want to lose this chance to spend time together with you." Santiago smiled warmly at her.

"Don’t be afraid then. He’s just another guest, and we can always ignore him." "Heh. I didn’t expect you to be such an easygoing person, Mr. Dalton," Clara laughed, and she and Santiago continued chatting happily, turning the atmosphere lively again.

Ethan was seated far away from them, but he could see everything that was going on.

His indifferent expression morphed into a cold one, and his eyes narrowed menacingly.

"You guys are already whispering to each other? Aren’t things moving too fast? You’d better save all that for filming and sign the contract first." Adam had long noticed how close Santiago and Clara were becoming, and wanted to use this show to get them together.

Unfortunately, Ethan had come out of nowhere, and Adam had no idea how things would go now.

At last, both Clara and Santiago signed the contract, and they would start filming for the show three days later.

Before leaving, Clara reluctantly said goodbye to Joanna.

She grabbed Joanna’s hand and said miserably, "I’ll be away for a while, Joan.

Take good care of yourself and wait for me to come back!" "I know you like Santiago and that you’re going to be on a dating show with him.

It’s a great opportunity, isn’t it? You should be happy; there’s no need to cry. Enjoy it!" Joanna’s injury had almost healed, and she could sit up now.

She gently wiped away Clara’s tears as if she was coaxing her daughter.

Clara whined, "I can’t bear to part with you.

Plus, men aren’t as important as my bestie. I might as well breach the contract than be apart from you for a month!" Joanna smirked at her dramatic friend.

"Do it then. Stay with me every day and don’t spend time with your idol." "Heh...

I was just joking, Joan! I’ve been waiting for this chance for such a long time, and I’m finally going to date Mr. Dalton! He’s been my idol for such a long time, and now..." Clara said dreamily.

"Okay, that’s enough.

Hurry up and get going, and stop acting like a lovestruck fool." "what? No, I’m not!" "Yes, you are. You’re a fool in love." "Joan, stop teasing me!" The two friends started bickering with each other.

After Quinton had finished his work, he went to the ward to see Joanna right away.

He entered the ward and frowned at the two women as he approached them.

"Stop messing around, you childish girls.

Why are you both acting like kids when you’re almost in your thirties?" Quinton said helplessly as he stood between them.

Instantly, Joanna and Clara both scowled at him.

"How can you say that, Quinton? Don’t you know that age is a very sensitive issue to women?" Joanna huffed as she put her hands on her waist.
