Stefan neither admitted nor denied it because he didn't want too many people knowing about it.
"If you really want to have the surgery... you should remind your surgeon to be careful because someone is trying to plot against him," Renee said carefully, unsure if what Adie had heard was true or not.
Stefan stared at her sharply. "What do you know?"
"Nothing, I… I just feel that people like us should be careful since we've got so many enemies."
"Enemies?" Stefan's frown deepened as he asked, "Did you get into trouble?"
"I'm safe. Plus, those people can't do anything to me," Renee said confidently. She was the world's top killer, so anyone wanting to mess with her was looking for trouble. Even though she was still recovering, she could definitely handle them.
"You're very sure of yourself, but you have to be careful too," Stefan reminded her gently.
"You too. Be careful," Renee echoed. It felt like a silent confession of love, a promise that they would both meet again after the storm had passed.
"No problem. I'm not scared because I'm the same in front of the camera and in private," Megan said enthusiastically. She was famous for her straightforward character, and coupled with her innocent looks, she had earned the nickname 'The Candid Megan'. A lot of people enjoyed watching her on TV.
"Ugh, there's no privacy at all… it's inhumane!" Angel muttered crossly. She had the highest academic qualifications among the female guests, and she was known for her talents and aloofness. Unlike Megan who fawned over Xavier and Santiago, Angel had yet to expose her preference.
"If you find it unacceptable, you can quit... Does anyone want to quit?" Billy asked them as he stood at the ship entrance. Nobody responded, so he grinned and continued, "Well, it seems like nobody's backing out just yet. Now, we'll start the first session of our show called 'In The Same Boat'."
"In The Same Boat?" Stupefied, everyone wondered what kind of trick the crew was trying to pull here.
