Chapter 868

“You know the inside scoop?” Yates put down his glass, shifting into a more comfortable position, his interest piqued.

"A little." Yolanda glanced around, making sure no cameras were on, then leaned closer to Yates and whispered, "She even snuck onto the set yesterday, trying to see Director Miranda."

"Did she get to see her?" Yates asked, squinting, listening intently.

"Of course not," Yolanda said with a shrug and a derisive laugh. "Her brother is Jimmie. Jimmie's best friends with Miranda's son. If he wanted to pull some strings to get her a spot, it would just take a word from him. So, either Jimmie doesn't like his sister enough to ask for a favor, or he already asked Miranda, and she said no."

Either way, Yolanda concluded with an air of certainty, there was no way Juniper was coming on the show.

"Is that so?" Yates stroked his chin, thinking back to the news of Jimmie officially finding his sister. The coverage had been overwhelming, with the topic trending in the top ten for two whole months. Jimmie had spent a fortune going after unscrupulous reporters and paparazzi to protect his sister. The lawsuits were still ongoing. Jimmie usually stayed out of public drama, focusing only on his work. To go to such lengths for his sister... could he really not care for her?

"Let's just get some sleep," Yates said, pulling a corner of his mouth into a wry smile as he stood up. "We'll find out who the guest is tomorrow."

"Yeah." After watching Yates leave, Yolanda pulled out her phone and contacted her makeup artist. “Be here at five to do my makeup.”

The show started filming at eight. To ensure she looked her absolute best on camera, she'd hired a top-tier professional at a premium. It would take several hours to achieve that perfect, exquisite look.

The next day, the first rays of morning sun streamed through the glass window and soft white curtains, casting a golden glow across the large bed. A potted plant on the table swayed its leaves gently. The figure on the bed furrowed a perfect brow in annoyance as the light hit her eyes.

*Bzz Bzz-*

As Juniper hovered in a state between sleep and wakefulness, the phone beside her pillow vibrated. It was a text from Jimmie: `Juniper, cameras are live in one minute.`

Juniper glanced at the message, tossed her phone aside, and plopped back down, intending to go right back to sleep.

At that moment, the third episode of "Hey, Sis!" officially began streaming. Thanks to yesterday's teaser about a surprise A-list guest, viewers were eager to find out just how big this star, who the production team had guarded so secretly, really was. As a result, the show's ratings skyrocketed the

moment it went live.

The first to appear were siblings Kellan and Willow. Kellan was just back from

"Didn't you say your throat was sore? You should probably avoid spicy food," Kellan advised.

"Can I have a milkshake?" Willow asked.

Kellan paused for a second. "A little bit, I guess."

"Just a little? Okay. Then can I have a frap?"

Kellan stopped washing his hands, cocking his head in confusion. “Is Frap a

person? Does he have a sore throat too?"

Willow was speechless. The audience watching erupted with laughter.

`LMAO, Willow is a savage.

`Kellan is seriously from my dad's generation. He doesn't even know what a frap is.`

`No wonder Kellan always gets cast in those serious period dramas, hahaha.`

Next up were siblings Jasper and Jiana. Jasper was already up and handling work, looking sharp and energetic, Jiana, on the other hand, opened the curtains, hissed as the sunlight hit her, and promptly fell

back onto the bed.

The show's caption appeared on screen: `[Under attack by the sun. Must sleep

more to recover.]`
