Chapter 790 Xiomara responded with little enthusiasm, saying, "Sure, sure," before eventually ushering the couple away. Yet, Lindsey found it puzzling.
During Xiomara's hospitalization, they were hesitant to spend money, even going as far as blocking her phone.
So, why did they suddenly show up today? "Xiomara, what was their reason for visiting today?" Xiomara hesitated before responding, "It's nothing, Lindsey.
They just happened to cto see me.
I've asked them not to cagain.
It won't interfere with the company's reputation or my filming in the show.
" Although Lindsey felt something was off, she didn't pry further since Xiomara seemed determined to keep it hidden.
Lindsey reassured Xiomara that she could always reach out for help if needed and Xiomara didn't have to face everything alone.

The filming for the second episode caround fast, featuring a fresh format to ramp up the popularity.
This time, participants had to team up in pairs, one male and one female, working together on a joint performance.
This innovative format aimed to stir interest and focus attention on these dynamic partnerships, boosting the show's ratings and elevating its profile.
During the selection process on stage, female participants randomly selected their male counterparts by choosing names displayed on a large screen.
Xiomara was the first to take the stage for this selection.
As the host initiated the process, the screen began to scroll through names.
With her eyes shut, Xiomara silently wished to avoid one nin particular...
"Stop!" A wave of surprise rippled through the audience at that moment.
Xiomara's heart dropped as she opened her eyes to find the nshe dreaded most illuminated on the screen- Sumner.
Whether this pairing was a deliberate move by the production team or merely a stroke of luck was left hanging in the air.
Before that certain event, Xiomara would have eagerly seized the chance, but now she just felt uncomfortable. Since her drunken confession of love to him, she had kept her distance from him at work.
Their interactions turned awkward, and they had scarcely spoken since.
When Sumner, after a quick makeup touch-up, saw Xiomara approaching with a nervous look, she hesitantly said, "If pairing up withisn't what you want, you can ask Lindsey to speak with the production team on our behalf.
Sumner responded, "Why would I not want to be your partner?" Caught off guard and embarrassed, Xiomara looked away, lost for words.
"Don't worry about that night.
It's in the past.

Now, we're here to work, and there's no reason our personal history m should interfere.
Onstage, we're both competitors and collaborators," Sumner said om earnestly, as he didn't believe it had caused much trouble. They just needed to clarify things; there was no need for resentment.
It was Xiomara who kept distancing herself from him.
Observing his serene gaze, Xiomara realized she might have been overacting.
She flashed an apologetic smile.
"Let's focus on our performance.
With your talent, I'm confident we can shine.
There's nothing to fret over," Sumner reassured her.
Meanwhile, hidden in the shadows backstage, a woman with perfect makeup overheard their entire exchange,
