The Heiress They Couldn't Break novel Chapter 13

Chapter 13 The First Challenge

Finished

The moment Huxley finished speaking, Gianna screamed, “Three miles? While carrying all this luggage? My shoes can’t handle that!”

She pointed down at her high heels, which were at least four inches high.

Damn it!

What kind of terrible show was this? Were they trying to make us suffer on purpose?

Gianna felt a twinge of regret. She thought the reality show would be like others–scripted, fake scenes, just for show. All she needed to do was look pretty.

But now, it seemed the director really meant it.

Kristina and Patricia were also wearing sandals and leather shoes, not fit for hiking. Only Bella had sneakers, while Amelia wore a pair of canvas shoes.

“The task starts now!” Huxley blew the whistle, ignoring their complaints.

Without saying anything, Amelia grabbed her suitcase and began walking.

Bella followed right behind.

The other three stayed behind, grumbling, before slowly dragging themselves forward.

The mountain path was rough and hard to walk on, and the sun kept getting hotter.

Sweat beaded on Amelia’s forehead, but she kept moving without stopping.

She had survived things way harder than this. A simple walk like this? Nothing at all.

During those missing years, her life had been like a nightmare.

Not long after, Gianna’s whiny voice came from behind, “Amelia, wait for me! My feet hurt so much.”

Amelia didn’t turn around.

She knew the cameras were pointed at her, and any reaction would be made into drama.

“Amelia, you’re so heartless! Didn’t you hear your sister calling you?” Kristina suddenly shouted.

Amelia finally stopped walking and turned to face them.

Gianna was limping forward, tears running down her cheeks, looking so weak and pitiful.

Amelia said calmly, “She brought this on herself. Who shows up to an outdoor reality show wearing high heels? Anyone with common sense wouldn’t do that.”

Her words landed like a bombshell. And the livestream chat went wild instantly.

[Wow, Amelia really said it! She’s bold!]

[Honestly, she’s right!]

[But what’s wrong with just wanting to look good on camera?]

Finally, someone spoke the truth, Walking a hiking trail in heels? That’s her own fault.]

[This program is nuts. These sisters are so fake!]

Amelia’s face turned pale, her eyes filling with tears. “Gianna, how could you be so mean?”

“Did I say anything wrong? Even a kid knows not to wear heels for outdoor stuff,” Amelia shot back.

Bella stood nearby, a small smile tugging at her lips.

This Amelia was far more interesting than she had imagined.

Finished

The crew looked at each other, surprised. None of them had expected the quiet–looking Amelia to speak out like that suddenly.

At the same time, more and more people were joining the livestream, and the comments were flying by so fast that it was hard to read them.

Amelia didn’t say anything else. She simply turned around and kept walking.

Bella hurried to her side and whispered, “Nice one.”

“I only said the truth,” Amelia answered in a cool, steady voice. “What, do they think this is some kind of soap opera?”

When the two of them reached the town entrance first, Huxley announced they could pick their beds first.

Gianna and the other two finally showed up half an hour later. Their makeup was a mess, and they looked completely exhausted.

Gianna was furious. This felt like pure torture.

She even worried she might not survive the whole show.

What scared her the most was that Amelia didn’t seem to care about how she looked on camera. All the little plans Gianna had in her head were wasted.

She had hoped to make Amelia look bad in comparison, to make the audience criticize Amelia, but it didn’t seem to be working.
