The Villain Mom Awakens — Going Viral by Parenting on a Reality Show-Chapter 108: Naomi Kenway’s Husband is So Handsome
Renee Jennings was filled with indignation. ’All her hard work, and she still lost to Naomi Kenway pulling strings?’
Christina Lynch gently patted her back, consoling her in a soft voice. "It’s okay, Rachel. Let her have her moment. Once filming starts, her lack of skill will be completely exposed. The director can’t possibly coach her through every single scene, right?"
Renee Jennings’s eyes lit up.
’That’s right! Sooner or later, Naomi Kenway will show her true colors!’
But the thought of the role that had been snatched from her still left a bitter taste in her mouth.
* * *
Early in the morning, a knock sounded at the manor’s main gate. As was customary, the film crew, cameras in hand, followed the quiet butler inside.
The estate was so vast that the crew had to ride in a vehicle, passing a massive fountain before arriving at the front of a luxurious and elegant European-style building.
[The other teams are about to leave, and we haven’t even seen Naomi Kenway yet.]
[Every time I see it, I have to marvel at how filthy rich Naomi Kenway’s family is. I could work since the dawn of time and still not be able to afford this estate.]
[Tears of envy are streaming from the corners of my mouth. When will I ever have this kind of ultra-luxurious life? Those rumors a while back about Naomi Kenway’s family going bankrupt were such bullshit. Just look at this place. Does it look even a tiny bit run-down?]
[Nina, have you considered having a second child? I’ll get ready now so I can be first in line to be reincarnated into your family! Mommy, I’m very obedient. My only flaw is that I eat a little too much.]
[Ahhh, there are so many rich people in the world, why can’t I be one of them?!]
[Speaking of money, Naomi Kenway still pales in comparison to Rachel. The way Naomi shows off, she probably sank her entire net worth into this house. Our Rachel is very low-key. She said she doesn’t care much about food or lodging, only about spiritual fulfillment. Naomi will probably never reach Rachel’s intellectual level in her entire life!]
[Rachel’s family has a lot of priceless antiques and famous paintings, I heard they’re worth eight figures. Besides, Best Actor Lynch is part of the Lynch Family, and I don’t need to spell out how rich the Lynch Family is, do I? Naomi Kenway talks a big game, but if she’s so amazing, why won’t she even reveal who her husband is? He’s probably some upstart who spent all his money buying this manor in the middle of nowhere just to show off.]
[Ooh, listen to how salty the commenter above is. You’re telling me this huge estate isn’t actually worth much? Do you take me for an idiot? If Renee Jennings were really so low-key, would she hang famous paintings all over her living room? Isn’t that just for show?]
[Is the person above secretly Naomi Kenway on an alt account? I’m stating facts. Looking at all of Veridia, how many families are wealthier than the Lynch Family?]
...
The butler led the film crew forward. As they rounded a corner, they happened upon Naomi Kenway seeing Ethan Shaw out.
The cameraman quickly turned the camera, but only managed to capture the tall, straight back of the man.
Naomi Kenway turned, noticed them, and waved. "Sorry about that. My husband isn’t a big fan of being on camera. I hope you all can understand." 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂
The cameraman apologized and panned the camera away again.
But that fleeting glimpse of his back had already sent the live chat into an uproar.
[Oh my god, was that really Naomi Kenway’s husband just now? He doesn’t look old at all! His white suit was ironed without a single crease. Someone who pays that much attention to his appearance can’t be some upstart, can he?]
[He looks so handsome from the back! Broad shoulders, long legs... isn’t that totally a model’s physique? Weren’t there rumors that Naomi Kenway and her husband weren’t on good terms? Have they made up now?]
[Such a huge estate, such a handsome husband... my dear sister, you’re hogging all the good fortune!]
[It was just his back, why is everyone swooning and calling him handsome? There are plenty of guys in real life who only look good from behind. As for the physique, anyone can get that if they work out consistently. It doesn’t mean his face is good-looking, right? Naomi Kenway said her husband doesn’t like being seen. What does that tell you? Doesn’t that indirectly prove her husband is too ugly to be seen in public?]
[The person above sure has a wild imagination. You say that like you have that height and those abs. (puke) With a body that good, who even cares about the face?]
[Ian is so adorable. How ugly can his dad be?]
[That’s not a valid assumption. What if Ian takes after Naomi Kenway?]
...
Naomi Kenway had no idea how heated the discussion in the comments section had become. As the camera followed, she went upstairs to wake up Ian.
Ian Shaw sat up, his eyes still bleary with sleep. He was a quiet sleeper, so his hair was still neat and fluffy.
"Mommy..." Ian clung to Naomi Kenway affectionately.
Naomi Kenway said, "Sweetheart, we have to get going for the show. Time to get up."
Ian Shaw nodded. But when Naomi Kenway moved to take off his pajamas to change his clothes, he backed away a little. He pointed a chubby finger at the camera. "Ian doesn’t want to. Someone’s watching."
A blush spread across his fair cheeks.
Naomi Kenway glanced at the camera and understood.
"How about Mommy takes you to the walk-in closet, then?"
[Hahaha, Ian is so young, but he already knows how to be shy?]
[A freshly woken-up Ian! So cute!]
[Have him wear the little yellow duck t-shirt! It’s so cute it makes my heart melt!]
...
A few minutes later, Naomi Kenway came out with Ian, having dressed him in a new style.
Ian was wearing a casual white t-shirt and coffee-colored pants. A silver chain hung around his neck, and black sunglasses covered almost half his face, making him look both cool and adorable.
The cameraman couldn’t help but praise him, "Ian, you look so handsome! You’re a cool little heartthrob today."
[Ahhhhh, so cute I could die! Come give your auntie a kiss!]
[Nina is so good at putting outfits together for her kid! I declare this outfit has officially replaced the little yellow duck t-shirt in my heart!]
[He’s so cool and cute at the same time. It’s a totally different vibe from his usual well-behaved look.]
...
After going downstairs and grabbing the suitcase that was already packed, they embarked on the next leg of their journey.
Things were a little different this time. After getting off the plane in Quenville, all the guests boarded a private vehicle provided by the production team to continue to the next destination.
"Ian is so adorable," Margaret Jennings complimented.
The guests had grown much more familiar with one another. They chatted about all sorts of things on the same bus, while the children gathered together to play.
Compared to the other high-spirited guests, Renee Jennings looked exceptionally haggard. She sat in her seat, and every time she glanced at Naomi Kenway and Ruby Preston huddled together, she felt a knot of frustration in her chest.
She had suffered one setback after another over the past two days, leaving her with an indescribable feeling of misery.
Before the show, Renee Jennings had contacted the production team in advance. She essentially wanted to know the content of the next episode so she could prepare, just like she assumed Naomi Kenway had. But to her surprise, the production team told her they had no precedent for informing guests of future content, as their parent-child reality show was all about authenticity.
Renee Jennings offered to invest money in the show, but her request for advance spoilers was still rejected.
’Why is everyone so biased toward Naomi Kenway?!’
