Chapter 512

Olivia had been racking her brain for days, desperately searching for a way to assist Donovan. The solution came unexpectedly when Amelia forwarded an invitation three weeks prior. Had it not been for Amelia's persistent reminders, the email would have been lost in Olivia's overflowing inbox.

A brilliant idea struck Olivia like lightning. She instructed Amelia to discreetly obtain the guest list for the upcoming reality show. Wealth had its privileges, and doors opened effortlessly. When the list arrived, one name immediately caught Olivia's attention. Without hesitation, she decided to participate.

The show, "Countryside Chronicles," blended rural living with celebrity culture, featuring influencers and public figures with massive followings. Olivia's recent bold intervention during the Sinclair Enterprises crisis in Newport had unexpectedly thrust her into the spotlight. Ironically, she owed this sudden fame to Margaret Sinclair, whose viral social media posts had drawn national attention to the situation.

As Olivia's public profile rose, the production team eagerly extended a personal invitation. Engrossed in finalizing business deals, she'd initially overlooked it. When Olivia announced her decision to join, Amelia's jaw dropped. "You're actually considering a reality show?" she gasped in disbelief.

During her years with the Kensingtons, numerous people had urged Olivia to enter show business. They constantly praised her striking beauty and promised instant success with the family's connections. But Olivia had always refused. While financial security mattered, she valued personal fulfillment more. She wanted recognition for her intellect and business acumen, not just her appearance.

International modeling scouts had pursued her relentlessly, but Olivia never entertained their offers. Amelia wondered if this marked a change in Olivia's stance toward the entertainment world she'd previously avoided. Without elaborate explanations, Olivia simply instructed Amelia to make the necessary arrangements.

Despite the three-week delay, the producers were thrilled to secure Olivia's participation. Filming for the first episode had already commenced, so Olivia would debut in the second installment. That evening, she studied the show's promotional materials, noting the picturesque village location. The pastoral setting would be entirely new for the cosmopolitan businesswoman.

After her evening routine, Isabelle climbed onto Olivia's lap, her golden curls spilling over Olivia's silk robe. Gazing at her daughter's innocent face, Olivia's heart swelled with warmth.

"Mommy," Isabelle inquired, pointing at the brochure, "Where is this magical place? It's so pretty! Are you going on an adventure? Can I come?" Olivia hesitated before explaining the nature of reality television and why this wasn't a family trip.

She preferred keeping Isabelle away from the public eye. Childhood should be protected, not displayed for entertainment.
