"So, Miss can we say you are here just for Mr. Kenwood's money?" One of the journalists asked the girl who was standing dumfounded by his question, she didn't know how to answer his question. Jason was patiently waiting for her answer sitting on a chair in front of them. The journalists have already asked all the girls questions only two were left.
"Can't you answer such a simple question!" Austin snapped, Claire was shocked to see Austin so angry, from day one she has seen him as a cool guy, who can make anyone feel comfortable, but since both of them have arrived, he was looking very angry, and Jason was again with an expressionless face making it difficult for her to understand the situation.
Claire could see Sarah was also as shocked as she was, "H-How can you ask something like that!" The girl hissed in anger on the journalist, today was the test they were going to answer the questions asked by some of the journalists, and whoever they feel, that have answered the questions honestly will get this week's price money.
"Is something wrong in answering about your intentions for participating for the man you say you have feeling for?" The journalist asked, making the girl shocked, Claire recalled how Jason asked her about her intentions, making her gulp feeling guilty all of a sudden.
She was fidgeting with the hem of her dress, feeling nervous, "You can sit down, now I would like to ask Miss. Sarah some questions."
Claire glanced at Sarah who smiled brightly at the journalist, "Miss. Sarah you have known Mr. Kenwood for quite a long time, right?"
"Yeah, I know him since we were ten years old." Sarah answered, "So, when did you start having feeling for him?"
Sarah smiled glancing at Jason who was waiting for her answer, "It was when we were on a trip with our parents..." Sarah recalled, "Our parents were good friends, so we always used to hang out together,"
"So, the three of us went on a bike ride where I got in a small accident, and he saved me." Sarah said, staring at Jason who was staring at her without any emotions, Austin chuckled sarcastically and said, "So that made you fall for him?"
Claire couldn't deny she felt jealous of her, but she was also curious about her relationship with Jason, and what did she mean three of them.
Sarah glared at him, "How many years have passed since that accident?"
"Five." Sarah answered, Jason was feeling a bit bad for Sarah, he never wanted to make her feel anything for him, he always took her only as a friend, she was aware of it, but since that incident he can't even be her friend.
"Tell him to ask some questions to Claire." Jason whispered to Austin, "At least let your friend finish her story." Austin joked, earning a glare from Jason, "Okay, okay relax I will tell him." Austin said, as he signaled someone making that person nod his head.
As the journalist was about to ask Sarah another question, a man came towards him and said something in his ear, "Okay, so now I would like to ask Miss. Claire some questions." He announced.
Claire widens her eyes in shock, she glanced at Jason who had a small smirk on his face, making her confused, "So, Miss. Claire why are you participating in the contest, do you like Mr. Kenwood?"
Claire took a deep breath and answered, "Yes, I like him," Claire answered, she knew it was not completely a lie as she did like him a bit, but she didn't participate in the contest for that, Jason raised an eyebrow as he thought how smoothly Claire lied.
"Okay....Since when you had feeling for him?"
"I don't know," Claire answered, leaving everyone confused, "What do you mean you don't know?" One of the journalists asked, "I mean to say, I have no idea since when I like him."
Austin and Scarlett were amazed by Claire, while Jason was getting a bit pissed, he was not a big fan of liars, "You mean to say you don't know when you fell for him?" The journalist tried to make sense of her words.
Claire nodded, since she has been sitting here, and he started asking her questions she forgot her real reason, because of which she was here, "Yes, something like that." Claire replied.
"So, you want to say you are crazy for me?" Jason asked, he talked for the first time since he entered in the mansion, "I never said I'm crazy for you." Claire replied, making Scarlett chuckle at her honesty.
Jason was shocked, but soon composed himself and asked, "Suppose if you win the contest, and become my girlfriend," Claire was listening to him with a lot of attention, "But you have to choose between me and the price money what will you choose?"
Jason asked her something he wanted to ask since he found out her reason for participating in the contest, "Well, kind of a tough choice," Claire said, acting as she was thinking deeply, making everyone shocked, except Sarah and Jason.
"Of course, I will choose you..." Claire said smiling at him, "But getting the money won't be bad, right?" Everyone laughed at her words, a small smile formed on Jason's face, making her feel like she did a good job in answering the questions.
"Well, Miss. Claire how can you say that, is money more important to you than my friend?" Austin joked, making Jason roll his eyes at him, Claire smiled and replied, "Mr. Jones I think you didn't hear me, I did choose your friend."
"Okay so that's all for today we will tell you about the results in an hour." The journalist said smiling at Claire, Jason noticed that but didn't say anything, everyone left, Sarah went to her room, and Claire went towards Scarlett who was talking to Jason and Austin.
Claire thought it was not the right time to talk to her, so she was about to leave when she heard Scarlett's voice, "Claire come here."
Claire glanced at her and then the boys, one who smiled at her, while the other was smirking, 'God should I leave?'
