Loving A STRANGER Chapter 171
Advertisement
By the time Khloe's make up was complete, Kylie and her team had successfully completed several challenges and come out victorious in each and every one of them. As it turned out, Khloe's team was at a great disadvantage. All of the challenges that they'd been forced to face, they were all designed to be tackled by teams of three.
As Kylie and her team proceeded from the third challenge to the forth, Kylie had a feeling that someone was following them. When she looked back, though, she saw no one who shouldn't be there. Having no other recourse, she tried to set her anxiety aside so that she could focus on the game show. She wants to win the game challenges to prove to Khloe that she was still better than her.
In the next challenge, they would take turns putting their heads into fish tanks to see who could hold their breath the longest. Each contestant would get three tries, and an average would be taken.
The first time Kylie buried her head in the tank, her time was really bad because she was nervous. She did better on the second try because this time, she knew what it was like and that it wasn't as scary as she'd thought it would be. Finally, on the last dip, she blew the other two times out of the water. As she emerged, though, the feeling that she was being watched came back to her again in spades. She had another weird thought that bothered her mind.
Stepping away from the tank, she noticed a man in the shadows. She squinted her eyes and saw that – for fuck's sake! – it was Thomas; the last person in the word that she ever wanted to see; the stranger who had accosted her the day before, in the center of town. Suddenly she feels nervous because the man stares at her intently. He looks so exhausted from something or activities he had done for the past few days. His sudden appearance made Kylie's spine shivered.

"What the fuck is wrong with this man?" Kylie silently cursed him.
She could see that he was wearing the same outfit that he'd been wearing the day before. There was a phone in his hand and a cheeky smile on his face as he began to take her picture. Who the hell are you? She thought to herself. And why are you stalking me? Why did you keep bothering for I don't know you personally?
Kylie wanted to call the man out but, because it would interfere with the show, she knew that she couldn't. She needs to ignore this lunatic man to pursue the game challenge.
Kylie had been the second contestant to go into the water. Cindy had been first. There were three more contestants, and then she could take a break. If it weren't for Khloe's absence, there would still be four more contestants to go. "Thank god for minor miracles," she muttered to herself. She honestly felt relieved without Khloe's presence because she can't be distracted by her annoying act and evil tricks.
Kylie had initially believed that she had a good chance of winning. Now, due to Khloe's unprofessionalism, it was almost a foregone conclusion that she would win.
Khloe was just arriving on the set as it was being announced that Kylie and her team had won the fourth competition. When she entered the room that they were calling The Tank Room, she walked over to her teammates and asked them how things were going so far.
Kem met her eyes for a moment, and then he spat at her chest. "Why don't you just fuck off?" he snarled. "After everything that you've put us through, I have no interest in talking to you. In fact, it is hard enough to keep me from punching you in your stupid cunt face. Go! Get out!"

Khloe looked around the room, confused. She had never been spat on before. She could tell that Kem was mad at her, but, for the life of her, she couldn't figure out why.
With a frown on her face, she walked over to the director and said, "Kem just spat on me, and almost everyone is giving me the evil eye. Even you seem displeased. Can you tell me why? Why are they treating me this way?" A sound of annoyance has heard from her words.
The director laughed maniacally and said, "After ruining the show, our prodigal daughter has returned, and now she wants to know why everyone is mad at her. That is sooooo quaint, don't you think? Your team lost every single challenge because you abandoned them. With their team reduced to two, there was no real competition or tension. I was just now watching the footage, and I am not sure that there is a show anymore. Not only did you stab each and every member of the cast and crew in the back, but you also stabbed your own father in the back! Aren't you ashamed of yourself? You are asking the most stupid question one could ever imagine after you abandon them. Khloe, put some brain into your head because you are ruining the entire show. You made everyone felt mad at your primadonna attitude. You are not even so popular to act like one,"
She growled and harshly said, "Then, who cares at all? If my existence makes this reality show look like a game of losing, then stop the filming!"
"Hahaha! Did you hear yourself? Are you crazy, or should I say brainless human who only think about herself? You are selfish, and you let your competitors win every challenge,"
Khloe sneered at the director, "Whatever! I don't care at all!"
The director answered her angrily, "Your father is the one who financed this show," he continued, "and you knew it. If he goes into bankruptcy, it will be all your fault, and all because you couldn't set your vanity aside for one day! And adding your arrogant attitude!"
