Chapter 190
Andrea had recently debuted as an actress after winning a talent competition.
Not only had she claimed the championship title, but her popularity far exceeded that of the other contestants.
Interestingly, she wasn’t signed under Jenkins Entertainment but had instead joined another major entertainment company.
Phoebe stood back, watching Andrea with a thoughtful gaze.
The girl, standing beside Sebastian, wore a bright and sweet smile–charming, innocent, and seemingly approachable.
But the moment Phoebe heard that last name, she instinctively linked Andrea to Reynard and Sienna.
Yet, looking at Andrea’s face directly, she saw little resemblance to Sienna.
So she shifted her perspective, glancing at her from the side–still, nothing strikingly similar.
But when Phoebe examined her facial features carefully, she immediately noticed something odd.
Andrea’s true features had been deliberately concealed–the face everyone saw was merely a carefully crafted illusion.
Only with her enhanced abilities could Phoebe see through the disguise.
And sure enough–Andrea was Sienna’s sister.
This aligned perfectly with what Soren had said before–Sienna had one older brother and one younger sister in her biological family.
But what Phoebe hadn’t expected was this shocking discovery: Sienna and Andrea were actually twins.
They didn’t look alike—probably because they were fraternal twins.
Andrea also carried a magnetic field of luck, similar to Sienna’s.
Yet there was something different about it. Whatever her purpose for being here was, one thing was clear-
This was no coincidence.
After introducing Andrea, Sebastian addressed the group.
*Due to her injury, Sienna won’t be able to continue the show. So Andrea will be joining one of your teams instead.”
The moment he finished speaking, Maddox quickly spoke up. “A balanced team works best. Both our teams already have female members. But Reece’s team still needs one.”
He was perfectly happy with the current three–person setup and had no interest in bringing in a fourth.
Lexie’s team shared the same sentiment–after weeks of working together, they had developed strong chemistry.
Adding a new member would only disrupt their flow. So Lexie echoed Maddox’s words, “Yeah, balanced teams are the best.”
Reece and the Jenkins brothers weren’t exactly thrilled about a new teammate either.
They weren’t even trying to win anymore–where would they find the energy to train a newbie?
In fact, they were planning to push Andrea off on Maddox–after all, that guy needed someone to keep him busy, instead of clinging to Phoebe all
the time.
But before they could voice their objections, Sebastian smiled knowingly and said:
“Exactly. Since the other two teams already have female members, Andrea should join your team, Reece.”
Then he turned to them and asked:–
“So, what do you think?” The three men fell silent. ‘Could we even say no?‘
From the way Sebastian phrased it, he had already made the decision long before asking.
Reece glanced at the Jenkins brothers, who gave a small nod.
Resigned, he replied, “Alright.”

Then, maintaining his signature cold demeanor, he turned to Andrea and said, “Welcome”
The Jenkins brothers offered polite smiles and echoed, “Welcome.”
Andrea responded with a well–mannered smile. “I’ll be relying on the three of you. Please take care of me?
She then cheerfully greeted the other two teams, flashing a bright and amiable grin.
Phoebe returned the greeting politely.
She knew Andrea wasn’t here by chance, but she had never crossed paths with her before,
There was no need to openly target a newcomer–Phoebe wasn’t that petty.
Women shouldn’t tear each other down for no reason.
As long as Andrea didn’t provoke her, she wouldn’t do anything either.
After all, they had no past grudges–she didn’t even know what kind of person Andrea truly was yet.
With the new team lineup set, the three groups went about their own plans.
Lexie’s team continued working part–time, while Phoebe’s group took their livestream audience sightseeing.
Before leaving, Phoebe took a moment to chat privately with Sebastian.
With a knowing smile, she asked, “Sebastian, was Andrea planned as a guest from the beginning?”
Sebastian shook his head. “No. Originally, we had a different female guest. But just as everything was set, she got into an accident yesterday and couldn’t make it. Then, suddenly, someone introduced Andrea to us.”
Phoebe’s suspicions deepened. ‘Just as expected!
Reynard had been captured, Sienna had been injured and was forced to drop out of the show.
So the people pulling the strings had pushed Andrea in as a replacement.
She asked, “Is the other guest okay?”
Sebastian replied, “Yeah, nothing too serious. Just a minor car accident–ended up with a dislocated hand.”
Phoebe nodded slightly. “As long as she’s okay.”
After exchanging a few more words, Phoebe and Maddox left.
Reece’s group, now including Andrea, remained.
Joshua suggested, “Should we keep playing music at the restaurant?”
Reece and Jamar, still in ‘give–up mode‘, nodded lazily. “Sure.”
They weren’t in the mood to entertain a new teammate.
They weren’t nurturing types to begin with.
So they didn’t even consult Andrea before deciding on their plans.
But Andrea didn’t mind–she played along effortlessly.
She also never tried to overstep her role by making unnecessary suggestions.
Compared to Sienna, she was far more pleasant. This made her more likable among the livestream viewers.
But when the group arrived at the restaurant, they were told:
The original pianist, who had taken leave, was back.
Meaning–their temporary gig was gone. Joshua barely contained his frustration. “So what now?”
Jamar shrugged. “No idea.”
Reece sighed. “I don’t know either.”

For the first time, Andrea spoke up. “Why don’t we try being tour guides and translators?”
She explained. “When I visited Darmechia before, I noticed that many popular tourist spots lack proper translation services. We can take local tourists to key attractions and explain the highlights. We just need someone fluent in Darmechian–Reece can do that.”
Joshua’s eyes lit up. “That’s actually a solid plan… But our Darmechian isn’t that great.”
Only Ollie was fluent in multiple languages.
The rest could only handle basic conversations, making them unfit as proper guides.
Andrea reassured them. “We don’t need to be fluent. We’ll be guiding local tourists, so our focus is on giving them a better experience.”
Her suggestion was met with approval.
Thus, under Andrea’s lead, they headed for a major tourist attraction.
Before long, Andrea naturally took control of the group, directing their movements.
Of course, this was partly because the three men didn’t care enough to lead.
By the end of the day, thanks to Andrea’s strategic approach, they earned a thousand dollars.
The livestream audience took note of Andrea’s fluent Darmechian, eloquence, and warm personality.
She was meticulous–researching every location and making notes for future guides.
She remained respectful toward the team–not overly clingy, but not distant either.
The viewers‘ impression of Andrea kept improving.
Meanwhile, in the hospital, Sienna, having dropped out of the show, got her phone back from the production team.
Desperate to reach her brothers, she checked the livestream instead.
The moment she saw Andrea, her face twisted in shock. “That little bitch–what is she doing here?!”
Although they were twin sisters, their relationship was anything but close–if anything, it was downright hostile.
Andrea had been frail since birth, her health constantly fragile. Because of this, their parents and older brother had always shown her more care and attention.
Sienna, on the other hand, resented and despised Andrea for it.
When the Jenkins family was looking to adopt a daughter, their mother had originally planned to send Andrea.
That infuriated Sienna.
Their biological family wasn’t well–off–so why should Andrea get to live in luxury while she was left behind to struggle?
That night, on the eve of Andrea’s departure to the Jenkins family, Sienna secretly opened a window, letting in the freezing night air–deliberately making Andrea sick.
Andrea’s condition worsened quickly, and she ended up hospitalized.
As a result, when the Jenkins family came to take their new daughter, the chosen girl became Sienna instead.
For the next decade, their lives couldn’t have been more different.
Sienna was raised as a privileged heiress, cherished by her adoptive mother and brothers.
Andrea, meanwhile, grew up as nothing more than an ordinary girl from a modest, struggling household.
And every time Sienna thought about it—she felt nothing but relief.
She had made the right decision that day.
But now–seeing Andrea stepping into her current place? It felt like a thorn stuck in her throat.
And what made it worse? Phoebe, who always called people out, wasn’t even targeting Andrea.

That pissed her off even more.
*Since when does Phoebe hold back? Go ahead–clash with her already!”
Frustrated, Sienna tried calling Reynard–but his phone was off. Unable to hold back, she dialed her mother instead.
