“Alright, the grouping is complete. From now on, all of yeni will undergo a 72 hour boot camp

Karvon Quinlan also started canvassing for vastes ois the spot. “All you ladies who vote for ine will always be beautiful and rich, and be blessed with someone who will love you forever!”
While everyone was vying to show off, Audrey Rhodes avoided the cameras and slipped away to a corner to send a message to Alistair Hayes. [1 have boot camp over the next three days. Help me put Sunny to bed at night. If you don’t know any bedtime stories, you can search online |
When Alistair received the message, he was
was somewhat displeased
They had been separated for nearly five hours yet his wife didn’t say that she missed him at all. All she was thinking of was that little heat
He felt a little jealous and he made no attempt to conceal how he felt in the voice message he sent in reply. [Honey, I can’t sleep when I’m alone at night]
The voice message that was received by Audrey was a little distorted. She had to turn the volume down and press the phone very close to her ear before she could make out what Alistair said.
She rubbed her earlobe with some bemusement. Then she typed out a reply.[Didn’t you always sleep alone in the past?]
Alistair could tell that it was inconvenient for Audrey to talk on the phone so he also switched to texting [That was in the past. After I met you, I couldn’t sleep alone. After that, he ended the message with a pleading face emoticon.
Almost by instinct. Audrey overlaid this emoticon expression on Alistair’s flawlessly handsome face and she burst out laughing at the mental
image.
Leila Palmer was walking toward Audrey at this juncture and caught this unusual sight. Curious to know why the latter was laughing so gleefully, she asked, “What are you doing?”
“I’m trying to placate my husband Audrey blurted out without thinking
Her reply made Leila raise one eyebrow in surprise. Were her ears playing tricks on her?
A highly driven and successful business magnate like Alistair Hayes still needed placating by his wife? It seemed that this guy knew how to manipulate his woman. All those women who were trying to catch Alistair’s eye could give up now.
Audrey assumed that Leila was surprised because she was not aware that Audrey was married.
She simply put away her phone without further explanation and asked, “Are you looking for me?
Leila put aside her thoughts and replied nonchalantly, “Oh, the production team has assigned a place for us to rest and rehearse. The five of us will be staying in the same building. The girls have already gone there to choose their rooms. Let’s go too.”
“Sure! Thanks for letting me know” Audrey smiled.
rushed to their assigned accommodation, Audrey sent another message to Alistair. I’m gonna be busy here. I’ll text you again
As the two of them n when I’m free-
After informing him, Audrey did not wait for his reply before turning off her phone to focus on her training
When the two of them reached Group Six’s accommodation, they found two other members. Paula and Yulia, sitting in the living room.
Paula Pratt was a little–known actress. Although she had some bit parts in a few productions, she was a relative unknown in the entertainment

industry
On the other hand, Yulia Judd was an opera singer. Although the public might not know her well, she was a heavyweight in the opera world.
at this moment, both Paula and Yulia were curled up ghumly on the sofa with a cushion each.
Audrey was the first to ask then. “What’s going on?”
Paula glanced at her but did not reply but Yulia sighed and said with some displeasure. “Well, our Ms. Sheare is throwing a tantrum”
Yulia was outspoken but very self–confident. When she wanted to diss anyone, she could be merciless. The focus of this show is singing. I don’t know why she wants to act all high and mighty and insists on dancing during the first stage. She doesn’t want to perform singing at all.
kes to dance so much, why doesn’t she participate in Dance Dance Champ instead? Why is she here to crowd the rest of us out?”
Dance Dance Champ was another popular reality competition show.
Audrey was speechless. They hadn’t even started rehearsing but they were already at loggerheads with one another?
