Chapter 444
Chapter 444:
Aiden, despite his own setbacks, maintained a formidable reputation. Kenneth had long aspired to outshine him but consistently fell just short.
Sensing the growing tension, Janice quietly sipped her water, opting to stay clear of the fray.
“Wow! The show just started, and there’s already jealousy brewing?”
“One is the brooding type, the other is the sunny type. It’s like a classic showdown—perfect for the show.”
“I think it’s quite normal for them to vie for this beauty’s attention. I’d join the fray too if I were on the show.”
“Someone give him a reality check.”
Many viewers quickly noticed the subtle tension between Aiden and Kenneth. Both were competing for Janice’s attention, creating a dramatic spectacle that captivated the audience.
Next to draw lots were Stephen, Leonidas, Aiden, and Carlton. They pulled numbers 1, 2, 5, and 6, respectively.
It was clear there would be an extra man. Who would it be, and how would the producers manage this? The suspense was building.
“Alright, the men have finished drawing. Now it’s the women’s turn.” The chef gestured, motioning for the women to come forward.
Demi, eager to stand out, was the first to reach into the red box. Who would be her ideal match? Any pairing seemed favorable, except with Daniel.
Despite his wealth, Daniel’s reputation as a playboy was well-known, and rumors swirled that he was on the show to find a girlfriend. Being paired with him could attract negative attention. Yet, the more she hoped to avoid him, the more likely it seemed she would pick his number.
“Number 3?” Demi looked at the ball in her hand, dismayed. “How could I be so unlucky?”

“What did you just say?” Daniel caught her muttering and immediately took offense. “Being paired with me is a stroke of luck! How dare you call it bad luck? I’m the unlucky one here.”
Daniel’s blunt response put Demi in an awkward spot.
“Mr. Chadwick, what are you talking about? I didn’t say anything,” she replied, forcing a smile, trying to defuse the situation. However, Daniel’s temper made this difficult.
“Oh, you think I’m deaf and didn’t hear you?” he retorted.
“No, no!”
“Devin, I strongly suggest letting her draw again. Since she dislikes me so much, there’s no point in forcing this.”
Devin rolled his eyes and picked up the microphone. “Sorry, but there’s only one draw per person. No do-overs. The fact that you drew the same number means fate has spoken. Despite your differences, this is destiny.”
He seized the moment to promote the show. “Love Lab is all about authenticity—no scripts, no gimmicks.”
“Ha-ha! Devin is too cute! Why the sudden commercial break?”
“I used to think Love Lab was scripted, but this time, I can tell it’s genuine. The guests’ reactions are too authentic.”
“Why do I find myself rooting for these two? As they say, fate brings unlikely pairs together.”
Viewers commended Devin’s wit and began to support the unexpected pairing of Demi and Daniel.
