"I think if we have something that will benefit everyone, we should be allowed to bring it with us," Ana continued. With that, everyone finally understood what she was trying to do.
"Of course, if that particular thing is beneficial to everyone like Demi's needles, the crew has decided that it'll be alright to bring along," Matt said confidently. He couldn't let the viewers think the program was only looking out for Demi.
"Forget it. We're not bringing anything," Maria said while shaking her head.
"There's nothing we can bring that'll benefit everyone," Wendy said with a smile.
"Alright. Here's where we end this episode. Get some rest, everyone. Tonight, the program crew will treat everyone to a special meal, and it'll be streamed live as well," said Matt.
Suddenly, four special guests hurriedly backed out of the dinner, saying that they would join everyone for a meal next time.
"Mr. Hahn, can you give me Demi's contact? I would like to buy her a meal to thank her for saving my life," Connor hurriedly said after everyone was done speaking.
"Of course." As Matt took out his phone, Connor quickly caught up with him. Then, the livestream ended.
"What? It's over? I want more…"
"Let's hope that there'll be a livestream when Connor buys Demi a meal."
"That's impossible, so stop dreaming."
…
After Matt gave Connor Demi's contact number, Connor called her right away. However, no one answered the call at all.
"Ms. Demi's phone is with us now," a staff member reminded him.
"Oh, right!" Matt exclaimed. "I forgot about that. Her belongings are still with us too, right?"
"Yes. Her suitcase should still be in her room," the staff member said with a nod.
Demi came with her suitcase. Before she went out for her tasks, she placed all her daily necessities in the bag the crew had given her. Then, she left the suitcase in her room.
"Alright. In that case, I'll visit her," said Matt as he ruffled his own hair.
