True Tycoon Her Empire, Her Rules ( Winnie and Suzan )
Chapter 151

Chapter 151 

Mae received an Exorcism Charm from Mervin, a gift that went unnoticed by the rest of the 

crew. 

Following the host’s lead, the show’s guests arrived at the filming location for the episode, a trendy bed and breakfast set at the foot of Golden Horizon Hills in Emerald Bay. 

This B&B’s claim to fame was the love story between the owner and his late wife. 

Legend had it that they met on the road, both avid travelers. A chance journey taken together revealed a deep connection, and they became lovers, traveling through the heart of Silverpine Country. 

Tragedy struck when the wife disappeared while capturing sunrise photos in Golden Horizon Hills. Her husband searched the surrounding hills for nine days with the rescue teams, making headlines with his determination. 

The image of him weeping when his wife’s body was found garnered widespread sympathy online. 

To honor his wife, the husband gave up his wanderlust life, quit his job, and invested his savings to start the B&B at the base of Golden Horizon Hills. 

Once their love story hit the internet, it drew scores of young followers eager to capture their moments at the now–iconic spot. 

“I’m sure you’ve all heard a bit about the B&B’s backstory,” Ned began, briefing the guests on the owners‘ tale while explaining the reason behind choosing this location for the episode. 

“It’s rumored that recently, couples who stay here tend to break up over trivial matters after leaving.” 

While this might seem like bad press for the B&B, there was another twist online, and the place was being touted as a litmus test for love. 

The theory went that any weak spots in a relationship would surface here, helping couples to ‘cut their losses‘ early. This claim, too, was lapped up by the public, and many visited just to prove their love could withstand such a trial. 

“Our main task,” Ned continued, “is to discover the reasons behind these breakups and if there’s any hint of supernatural forces at play.” 

As he spoke, all people exchanged uneasy glances. 

Candace was the first to raise a hand. 

“Investigating why couples broke up? That’s tough. We don’t know any of them, and how can we tell if the B&B influenced their breakups? What’s our approach?” 

Ned, seemingly prepared for such doubts, smiled and replied, “We had already discussed this

with the B&B owner. You can choose a couple from the current guests, with their consent, to observe as part of your investigation.” 

Without giving the guests a chance to respond, he added with a chuckle, “Of course, if anyone. refuses to be on camera, you’ll need to get creative. Perhaps form a couple among yourselves and spend a weekend uncovering the B&B’s secrets. That’s why we suggest pairing off in mixed–gender teams here, just in case you can’t find willing participants.” 

The mention of forming couples on a supernatural–themed show left the guests speechless. 

Predictably, the live audience, especially the fanbases, went wild. 

“Not my fave. He’s too good for this.” 

“My girl’s taken by me. No on–screen cheating, not even pretending.” 

“I know this B&B. Kaney, wait for us, we’re coming to volunteer as your guinea pigs.” 

“Seriously? Are you dating behind his back? Not like me. I’ve only got eyes for him.” 

“Darn, the B&B’s booked out.” 

“The production schedule is too secretive, and I missed my chance to stay with my idol.” 

Meanwhile, the guests quickly formed teams, albeit reluctantly. – 

Ideally, they’d recruit a couple already staying at the B&B, but if that failed, they’d have to partner up as Ned suggested. 

Following the precedent set in the first episode, the pairings happened quickly, Mervin with Candace, Gentry with Mae, and Winnie with Kane again. 

The audience online cried out against this ‘misalliance,‘ determined to prevent any fake couple 

formation. 

Candace, though miffed at not being paired with Kane, swiftly pivoted. When the topic of room. assignments came up, she latched onto Winnie’s arm. 

“I’m bunking with Winnie.” she declared, glancing at Mae with a sly grin, “Don’t get me wrong. Mae. It’s not that I want to ditch you, but Winnie and I shared a room last time. We’re comfy with each other, and besides, I remember you prefer a room to yourself.” 

The chat exploded with reactions to Candace’s remark. 

“There she goes, Candace and her deliberately ambiguous speaking.” 

“Candace, you’re killing me with honesty, even on live camera. You know you had separate beds, right?” 

“No offense. My wife’s just blunt. She usually sleeps with me.” 

“Candace really cares for Winnie, like a sister.” 

“Like a sister, not a ladder climber?”  Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ FindNʘᴠᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“Is it just me, or is Candace trying to avoid Mae?” 

“Jealous much? It’s obvious she’s trying to isolate Mae.” 

“Three women and they’re playing this isolation game? Poor Mae.” 

Mae’s fans mixed with Candace’s in the comments section, each defending their favorite. 

Mae, a bit slow to catch on, smiled and indicated she was fine with the arrangement. 

From the start of the show, she seemed a bit out of the loop, but considering the recent scare with the Ruby Bracelet, no one thought much of it. 

Ned had been eavesdropping on the guests as they hashed out room assignments among themselves, smirking as he finally chimed in. 

“Here’s the deal. Because we’ve got an even split of gents and ladies this season, the production team’s gone ahead and set aside two spacious rooms, three to a room.” 

At that revelation, the guests could only exchange exasperated glances. 

Ignoring the host, they each took to their assigned rooms without further ado. 

Come nine o’clock that night, the live feed was promptly cut off by the production crew. 

Mae glanced at Winnie, who was still enjoying a shower in the bathroom, and then at Candace, who was engrossed in her smartphone on the other bed. Announcing she was stepping out to grab a drink, Mae slipped out of the room. 

She skirted around the crew and made her way to a secluded path behind the inn. Once she was sure she was alone, Mae cautiously pulled out a ruby bracelet from her pocket. 

The bracelet was a spitting image of the one Winnie had been fussing over earlier that day.
