Chapter 281: You're Here Too
Sylvia didn't refuse his request; to be honest, she was quite curious herself. If the researchers from that institute could be persuaded to join, that would be great. Over the past few days, she had diligently investigated the specific situation of these researchers, knowing their strengths and weaknesses, and then set off with her brother.
"Although this is just a reality show, you don't have to put too much pressure on yourself. In other words, since our family invested in this project, your comfort is the priority. If you're not happy, we won't do it."Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
In order to get his sister to participate in this event, Balk had put in a lot of effort. He even approached Bruce to get him to invest, and Bruce, seeing Sylvia's involvement, invested a large sum of money, instantly becoming the biggest sponsor of the entire reality show.
The directors understood this very well. So when they saw Balk and Sylvia coming, they were almost beaming with joy. They greeted them warmly, because whoever pays the piper calls the tune.
"Why are you here?"
Before Sylvia and Balk could speak to the director, a sharp voice came from afar. They looked in the direction of the voice and saw Mia. Sylvia frowned when she saw her.
Because she had been very busy lately, Sylvia hadn't paid attention to who would be participating in this reality show. When she saw Mia, she felt uncomfortable.
"Why do I have a feeling that you invited me to participate in this reality show just to expose me to desensitization therapy? And how come everyone is here?"
This sentence left Balk speechless because he didn't know why Mia was here. There was no mention of Mia in the information he received, which meant that his initial information was true, but there had been changes later on.
Feeling a bit guilty, Balk touched his nose. He hadn't double-checked the personnel at the end, and he didn't expect such a big change.
Seeing Balk's reaction, Sylvia knew that he hadn't paid much attention to who would be coming to participate either, and she felt a bit speechless. "Never mind, these things aren't really important. What's important is, if I'm not happy, can I ask him to leave?"
Sylvia asked sincerely. Sometimes, the best way to avoid conflict is to prevent it from happening in the first place.
So how can we prevent conflicts? By not giving them a chance to arise. Since she came here with a purpose, she could only push Mia out, considering that her family was the biggest sponsor.
Hearing Sylvia's words, Balk also
seemed to have found a good solution. He nodded, but also looked at Sylvia strangely. "Of course, there's no problem with that. We've spent so much money, if you're still unhappy here, then all this money would be wasted. Anyway, if you're willing to stay, just treat ibas a joke. If you're not, we can let him leave now."
"Then let's keep him here for now, just treat it as a joke for now."
Knowing her family's attitude, she didn't care anymore. She didn't consider Mia to be a particularly troublesome person. She came here only for the laboratory researchers. As for Mia's participation in one or two seasons, it had nothing to do with her.
The siblings ignored Mia's presence, and Mia could feel their disregard. She was very angry, but she didn't dare say anything. When she came, she knew that the biggest sponsor of this project was the Ivan Group, but she didn't expect Sylvia to be here. Originally, she thought she might get some information from her brother, but when she saw Sylvia here, she dismissed that idea.
Seeing the reaction of the three of them, the director felt a headache coming on. He didn't expect them to have such a history. If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have agreed to Mia's participation. But now that she was here, what could he do?
"Director, my sister doesn't have any special requirements, she just has one request, to try to reduce her screen time."
Balk said this in front of the other guests. The other guests had originally thought that the biggest sponsor of this event was the Ivan Group, so their screen time would be pitifully little. But they didn't expect the heiress of the Ivan family to take the initiative to reduce her screen time. This was quite strange.
"But if the screen time is reduced, then your performance here may be very inadequate. My suggestion is to give you as much screen time as possible. After all, you are the biggest sponsors here."
"No need. I came here for other things, not just to participate in the reality show. You can allocate my screen time evenly to others. Focus on my brother and me, if we're together, put us together. If we're not together, try not to show me on camera."
With Sylvia's words, the director had
nothing more to say. Although he felt a bit regretful, after all, people like Sylvia and Balk, two good-looking siblings, were rare, and they were also the biggest sponsors. Sylvia's participation in this reality show was quite a spectacle: Now, suddenly reducing her screen time, he didn't know how the audience would react.
But the director had to consider the wishes of the client's father. The opinions of the audience were not the most important. After all, the client's father had invested real money, so his enjoyment should take precedence.
After sorting out these matters, Balk took Sylvia to meet the other guests. The other guests knew that the Ivan family was the biggest sponsor this time, and they knew the identities of the two of them. They greeted them respectfully, and based on Balk's previous performances in the circle, they were enough to win their respect.
But not everyone in this group would show them respect, like Mia.
Mia had never liked Sylvia, and now that Sylvia appeared with such an identity, she rolled her eyes and expressed her discomfort.
