Chapter 594 Exposing
The barnyard only had the most primitive farming equipment. They had to take the water from the well
and collect firewood themselves. Naturally, Elise got the task of getting water and prepping ingredients,
and she told Kenneth, “Get some firewood. We need the thin and dry ones. Better to make fire with.”
Kenneth leaned on the wooden stake and said instead, “Hey, if we can live together like this for our
whole lives, it’d be swell. Nobody would disturb us, and we could make our own meals.”
Elise didn’t even look up. “I don’t know if it’ll be swell, but what I do know is that a dozen cameras are
facing us. If you aren’t collecting the firewood, I’d starve before we can even live together.”
Well, that’s embarrassing. Kenneth went out to collect firewood, and the assistant director led him.
Elise got herself a bucket of water and washed the ingredients. She finished prepping a while later, and
once Kenneth came back with the firewood, they could make fire and finish cooking in ten minutes.
But then, someone outside the yard shouted, “Sinclair!”
Elise and the camera turned around, and Elise saw Celina actually breaking through the security guards’
blockade, barging into the scene.
“Who is she? How did she get in?” The director was stunned.
Everyone else, however, thought it was just a segment of the show. They stood around to watch what
would unfurl, doing nothing to stop Celina.
“You just had to cling onto me, huh?” Elise was getting impatient. She had prepared far too long for the
national livestream, and she didn’t want to waste it just because an idiot like Celina showed up.

“Say what you want, but you won’t get to talk like that any longer.” Celina sneered and came up to her.
“I’m here today to expose your true colors to the audience.”
Elise frowned. She had left in a hurry this morning, and she thought she didn’t have to take her mask off
during the livestream, so she didn’t put on her ugly makeup. What was beneath her mask was her true
face. Her real goal was to let her enemies see her making it in life and make them attack her. Letting her
true face show was nothing, though she was worried that it might cause unwanted problems, since
people were visual animals.
“What? Cat got your tongue?” Celina thought Elise was being nervous, and she took it a notch higher.
“You tricked Alexander, and you deceived Kenneth, but you can’t fool everyone. A wicked person’s face
is always ugly. Take that mask off if you dare, and let the whole nation judge.”
“If looks is how people judge someone’s skills and personality, then that skill must be a lame one.” Elise
didn’t budge.
“Stop defending yourself, confusing people, and pretending that you’re such an innocent girl. You’re
scared. You know how ugly you are, so you won’t ever let anyone know your true face. But I know what
you look like. Surprised? You might have killed Faye, but you can’t hide your past, and now I’ll expose
your true colors!”
Celina looked like she had won the battle. She raised the poster in her hand and turned it to the camera.
“Look at this. This short-haired girl in red clothes with embroidery is Elise. You were all tricked by her.
She’s not a beautiful woman who’s covering herself up. She’s just ashamed to show her face to
everyone.”
This wasn’t in the plan, but a face reveal was a great topic that would garner a lot of traffic, so the
director decided to follow up. He turned the camera to Celina and even gave her a close up to zoom in
on Elise’s ugly face on the poster.
Even a gentleman like Alexander frowned back when Elise had her ugly makeup on. Now that the poster
was revealed, the whole production team went silent with horror, and the audience was possibly
disgusted as well.
The girl in the poster didn’t look like she was human at all. Her face was dark, and she had moles all
over. Her hairstyle was drab, and her clothes were ugly. It horrified everyone. On the other hand, Elise
was dressed up to perfection, and the part of the face she revealed was gorgeous. It was impossible to
link her to the girl on the poster.
But everyone knew there were too few people in the world who had perfect looks. Most of them were just
ordinary people. Embellishing someone’s looks through makeup wasn’t impossible especially at this time
and age, so when they looked at Elise again, everyone was thinking that the girl on the poster was closer
to what she really looked.
The production team received the audience’s feedback at this moment. They thought that a woman who
couldn’t face her true self and chose deception instead had no right to be on live television.
Elise received a message from the director, who sounded helpless. He said, “Miss Sinclair, we might
have to stop the live streaming early today.”

might not watch it because of what happened. It would ruin her plan of getting national attention and put
a halt to her overall agenda. All her effort would have gone to waste then.
Elise took a deep breath and came out of the kitchen. She faced the camera and took her mask off,
revealing her beautiful face. When they saw how exquisite she looked, everyone fell into silence.
Makeup is real-life magic. It actually covered up all her flaws perfectly, and it looks so natural.
Celina was stunned, but she snapped out of it quickly and continued arguing, “I see you’re prepared. You
even had makeup on. I know. You must be worried that someone might pull your mask off because
they’re curious. Worried that they will reveal your true colors? If you’re so brave, why don’t you remove
your makeup right now?”
Elise gnashed her teeth impatiently. Calm down, Elise. She repeated over and over again. Don’t argue
with a b*tch like her. She’s rabid now. Don’t get mad over an idiot. She heaved a sigh and looked at the
camera with resignation. “Director, do you have any makeup remover?”
The assistant director went up to her with the remover in hand, but Celina snatched it away, worried that
they might help her. “You guys are trying to push her up to popularity’s peak. You won’t remove her
makeup for real. Let me do it.”
Celina took it and poured some out on a piece of cotton pad. Then she went up to Elise. “Let’s see if
you’ll still have fans once they see your face.” She wiped Elise’s face with the cotton pad, but no matter
what she did, she couldn’t wipe the makeup off, and Elise’s face glistened even more because of the
water.
